A once in a lifetime opportunity sends a girl into a world so vibrant and bright. Elton John's world. Her uncles crazy world, filled with ups and downs. An assistant on the up and coming movie, Rocketman, is unlike anything she's done. Wonderful mus...
Never once would i have thought I would be lucky enough to work on such a massive project like Rocketman. It was my dream since I was a mere tot to do films. Not so much act in them. But do behind the scenes magic with my sketching or assisting. And what better way to start my career, than working on a film about my Uncle's life? This larger than life man that's so outrageous and flashy and utterly amazing. The man I owe everything to. Him and Uncle David are like my guardian angels. They saved me from a life of disaster. And potentially myself. I was a mess for so long after my mom left. I barely talked, barley ate, barley did anything. But not only did they finally break me free from the chains holding me down, they put my eyes on a prize so beautiful and breath taking to me. Music. Films. It was what I wanted to do. And it was finally happening. And in the process, I was actually going to be in one! It was so scary. But so incredibly fun to do. From the minute I came back on set today, I was practicing my dance number in the mirror, learning as quickly as possible from what I was shown by the choreographer. I wanted it to be just right. And with Honky Cat playing in the background, Taron and Richard's voices filling my ears and sending my lips into a huge smile, I danced away. And I had no idea I had an audience.
"Tiny Dancer's got moves." I jumped a little once turning to see Taron standing there. And he looked so darn cute! All done up in a red jumper, bedazzled, just like my uncle would love. It looked so legit. And Taron looked more and more like him each time I saw him.

"Your girl here is going to be in Honky Cat with you and Richard. Can you believe it?! Me!" And each time, I just hoped I didn't mess up once the cameras started to roll. I wanted it to be perfect. This isn't just any film. It's about and for my uncle. And I want him to be proud of me. Showing that I will make a good life for myself. And be nothing like my roots. But in my mind, my true roots were from Uncle Elton and Uncle David. Not my mother.
"You'll do incredible love. You have so far. You're far more than just an assistant. And I think you should showcase your talents. Don't hide behind them anymore." He walked closer to me with the music still blaring in the background, putting a huge smile to my lips. I knew he was right. He saw something in me that I didn't. And the only way I was going to learn, was by accepting his hand to journey down that yellow brick road and find out. I wouldn't know if I don't ever take risks. And Taron was just the person to make me do it.
"Alright. You've convinced me. Has anyone ever told you how amazing you are Taron?" With my hand in his, he twirled me around to face the mirror, our reflections looking back at me with our smiles so bright. And his handsome face the only thing I could focus on.
"Just feel the music. Let it take over you. And from there, you'll be in a world beyond your wildest dreams." I chuckled slightly, before I let the tune of Honky Cat fill my ears, moving my body to the beat, along with Taron. An electric current was going through me from his mere touch. And I just wanted more.
"So, about that kiss..." My eyes widened from his words, knowing it was going to come up at some point. But that didn't stop the blush from coming to my cheeks. My shyness is going to be the death of me.
