in love with a pornstar (modern au fanfic LAMS)

chapter 4

alexander

if you asked me what i was supposed to be doing right now, i would say sleeping. instead, i am being chased around a hotel room by maria. she's screaming bloody murder all because i chose that laurens guy for this meet and greet. i haven't even met him yet and he's already causing problems. how lovely.

"you're going to break his heart!" maria stomps her foot, chucking a pillow at me.

"he's twenty-one, ria!" i duck as she hurls another pillow my way. "he shouldn't like a porn-star like that!"

maria groans dramatically, tossing herself on the bed. she covers her face with both of her hands. why was she so worked up about this?

"fuck you." she spits, her voice muffled by her hands.

"already have." i respond, smiling sweetly at her.

she shoots me a fiery glare. a frown was plastered on her face, it was almost comical. i refrained from laughing simply because i didn't want to get slapped.

maria rolls herself to the desk that was placed right next to the bed. she dials room service, waiting for someone to answer the phone.

"may i get two veggie egg rolls, a large hot and sour soup, vegetable lo mein, five pieces of salmon sushi, a large shrimp fried rice, and vegetable wontons please?"

aw, we're eating like we have four stomachs tonight. how sweet.

"you want anything, lex?"

i stand corrected.

i shake my head, not wanting any chinese food. i walk over to the mini fridge and pull out my leftover salad that was there from the night before. i grab a plastic fork and watch as maria continues speaking into the phone.

i walk back over to the bed and make maria move over because she was laying on my phone. she glares at me for what feels like the umpteenth time that day. i simply decide to ignore her. i dont know who pissed in her cornflakes.

i unlock my phone only to see a bunch of messages from this laurens guy. okay, now this is just getting creepy. what is his obsession with me? on a different note, i am relativelt excited for this meet and greet. i get to rail someone then break their heart a day later. does me saying that make me sound like an asshole? probably. anywho.

"alexander! stop reading those messages and come eat with me!" maria shouts from the little 'dining room' in the hotel room.

"don't rush me, i'm coming, i'm coming!"

"no, you're not! i'm not in there with you!"

it takes me a while to get the joke but when i do, a smile finds its way to my face. i roll my eyes at her antics and sit down next to her at the table. she smiles at me acting like she wasnt trying to kill me ten minutes earlier.

"do you want to go to the pool after this?" she asks, shoveling food into her mouth.

i grimace, stabbing my lettuce with a fork. what kind of question was that?

"nope." I reply, stuffing my face.

she looks down, muttering a quick apology. she looks up at the ceiling as if she were pondering something.

"jacuzzi?"

i only lift my eyes to look at her. she gets the message.

we talk for a few minutes, just having an average conversation. after a while, she picks up her half-eaten food and shoves it in the mini-fridge. all of the sudden room service knocks on the door, and maria runs over to it, opening it. she snatches a cocktail from the man, slamming the door after tossing a fifty dollar bill at the poor guy.
