"HELLO, is this y/n l/n?"

"Yes, this is she."

"Hi! This is the casting director for 'Miss Stevens'. I'm calling to let you know that the rest of the directing team and I think you are perfect for the role of 'Evangeline'."

Air caught in my throat, causing me to choke.

"Miss l/n? Are you okay?"
"YES! Yes, I'm sorry, this is just the best news I've received all year!" I shrieked, causing the casting director to laugh.

"So I take it you'll be accepting the job?"
"YES!"
"Good, because we haven't found anyone that fits the part like you do. Shooting starts in 3 weeks, I'll have someone on my team email you the time, date, and address. Any other questions?"
"Um- have you casted anyone else?"

"Yes, we have. The casting list right now is Anthony Quintal playing the character 'Sam', Lili Reinhart playing the character 'Margot', Timothée Chalamet playing the character 'Billy', and of course, playing 'Miss Stevens' is going to be Lily Rabe."

I choked again.
LILY fucking RABE?

"You mean, as in the AHS star Lily Rabe?"
"No; as in the nobody Lily Rabe. YES, the AHS star Lily Rabe!" He chuckled on the other side of the phone.

"I think I'm going to faint."
"Go ahead and get your fan-nerves out while you can, because we're expecting your A-game on set."
"And my A-game is what I'll bring, Mister—"
"Matthew Lessall, just call me Matt."

"Thank you so much for this opportunity, Matt, I promise you won't regret it."
"I believe it. We have a lot of hope in you, Miss l/n. Make sure to check your email during the next few business days, and have a splendid evening."
"Yes sir, you too."

With that, he hung up.
I set my phone onto my bedside table, flopping onto my bed, staring up at the ceiling in disbelief.

I got the part.
