Hi my name is Sophia and I am 20 years old. I grew up in a small town near Seattle Washington. I am an only child and I have a great mom and dad. I have always had a passion for singing and acting. 

Sophia p.o.v.
I wake up and look over at the clock I see it is 8:00 am I roll over and open my phone. I first open it to Instagram and start scrolling through and decide it is time to get up and get ready for the day. I decide to take a shower and wash my blonde hair. I get out of the shower and dry and straighten my hair. I then go and get dressed I put on black ripped jeans and a white crop top and then I decide to walk down to my kitchen. Once I get there I see a lot of boxes everywhere. I am very confused and then I decide to walk into my living room where I see my mom and dad. "mom dad what's going on?" I ask and they look up. "Oh good morning sweetie we have big news but first how about breakfast?" My dad said, I shake my head. "I'm good I'm gonna run to Starbucks when I figure out what is going on," I say and laugh. "Ok sweetie, your father and I decided to move to Orlando Florida," My mom said. I nod, "when are we moving?" I ask. "Well hunny, we decided to leave tomorrow, you don't have to leave with us right away. But we would like you to join us with in a week or so." She said and I nod " do you have boxes I can start to box my stuff up. I have an audition in Los Angels tomorrow but I can fly out after it." I say and she nods. "Oh hunny, we are also planning on selling the cars so we will have you flown to and from L.A." my dad said and I nod. "I'm gonna go upstairs and start packing," I say and my parents nod. I grab so boxes and start back into my room. I grabbed my suit case and started packing my things for L.A. first. I finish with all my LA stuff and then start working on the rest. I start with my closet and dressers I put all my clothes in a big box and labels it "Sophia Clothes" I then start with my vanity and bed side tables and label it "vanity and table". I then move on to my shoes and yes I have a lot of them so I pack most of the up into a box and then I have to get another box. I label both boxes "Sophia shoes". I pack up the last of my room and throw it into a box. I am a minimalist so I don't have to much stuff. Once I am all done packing I look at the time and it is 1 pm. I sigh and realize how long it actually took to pack everything. I then flop on my bed and decide to scroll through tik tok. I came across this really attractive guy on there. I quickly like his tik tok and go to his page and I see a tik tok with another guy and 2 girls. I sigh that must be his girlfriend I then slide out of tik tok and put my phone in my back pocket and then slip on my burks and grab my keys. I walked down the stairs and walk into the kitchen and see both my mom and dad eating some lunch. "Hey sweetie, we got you a plane ticket for tonight at 7 so you might want to get packed and ready to go." My mom said I nod, "I am packed and I have my roomed packed up I'll bring the boxes down before I leave. Will you be dropping me off at the airport?"  I ask and my dad nods. "Yes and we called a car for you when you get to L.A. We also called a hotel and you will be staying there for 2 nights." My dad said and I nod, "thank you, I'll go get the boxes." I say and I walk up to my room and clean off my bed and box it up. My room once put together now completely in boxes ready for the big move. Why my family wants to move I don't know but I'm a struggling actress and have no place else to go. So I decide to take all the boxes down stairs and then I came back up for my suitcase and my carry on case. I have all I need for my audition tomorrow and then some extra but that's ok. I was down stairs completely and see my mom and dad packing away the kitchen. I sit down on the stool and realize I haven't eaten anything today. I sigh and go to the fridge and get a salad that I made yesterday. I go and sit down and start to eat my lunch. As doing so I start to scroll through my phone and go to Instagram. I see some of my best friends posting all over Instagram about a beach day they had this last summer. Which I wasn't invited to because I had to audition, for the role I'm auditioning for tomorrow as well. I shut down my Instagram and go to tik tok and once again that guy shows up on my for you page. Oh my gosh why is he so cute but why does he have to have a girlfriend I scroll right past it and keep scrolling. About 30 minutes later I come across another tik tok with a dark hair boy and the 2 girls from earlier. So one must be the guy before and one must be this guy. Oh my gosh why are these guys so cute and why are they taken. It would be easier if the girls were ugly but they are so pretty. So unfair I sigh and get off of tik tok and I get a text from my manager Liz
Liz: Hey, so I'll send you the address for your audition tomorrow morning and your call time is 6 o'clock and you will be reading with your love interest.
Sophia: okay will you be there or am I doing this solo?
Liz: I'll be there don't worry you never have to do it solo 😂
Sophia: ok good I'm getting on a plane later today and then I'll staying at a hotel near the audition and then I'm moving to Orlando.
Liz: oh ok we will make sure to update that in your chart.
Sophia: ok thank you
I then look at the clock and it is 3 o'clock and I decide to go get Starbucks and drive my car for the last time. I grab my keys and walk outside to the garage and see my mom there. "Hey mom, I'm going to get Starbucks," I say and she shakes her head. "Sweetie I'm sorry your car just sold, you can take mine." She says and I nod. "Can I have your keys? I ask and she nods. She hands me her keys and I get into her Ford Focus and drive to the closest Starbucks. I get up to the drive through and I decide to order a strawberry aci refresher as I'm sitting in line a big truck comes up behind me and gets incredibly close to my bumper. Ugh why do people have to be so rude. I am sitting in my car when we start to move forward. I get to the window and pay for my drink. "Is there any way I can pay for the guy behind me as well?" I say and the lady nods. I payed for the guy behind me and then I pulled out of the drive through and pulled into a parking spot and decide to drink some of my drink. I see the truck pulling out of the drive through and over to me. They roll down there window and I rolled down mine. "Hey, thanks for paying for my drink," he said. "You're welcome, I hope you have a nice day?" I say and smile at him. "Thank you, I hope you have a nice day as well. I'm Jake by the way," he said and I nod. "I'm Sophia," I say and he smiles. "Sophia, would you like to get dinner," he asked. I shake my head. "I'm so sorry I am actually moving tonight." I say and he smiles, "well I guess that a pretty good excuse," he said and nod. "It's not an excuse you seem really nice," I say and he nods. "It was nice talking to you." I say and I pull out of the parking lot. I decide to drive home and when I get home I look at the clock and it is 4:30 and I know that I have to leave to LA soon so I decide to go inside my house and get my suit case and carry on. I take one more long look at my room and decide that this will be the last time I will ever see this room. I sigh and close my door. I walk down my stairs and into my living room where both my parents were. "All ready sweetie?" My dad asked I nod my head and we all walk to the car. I put my luggage in the back and sit in the backseat as my parents start to drive towards the airport. This will be the first time that I will be completely alone on a trip and it is in LA which is even scarier. It wasn't long before we reached the airport and said our goodbyes. I walked through the airport and went through security. I got to my terminal just before 6:30 I wouldn't be leaving till 7 so I decided to get some food and something to drink. After I get my food I sit near my terminal and wait until I can board.

About 30 minutes later
I am boarded on the plane and ready for take off when I see a familiar face. It's the guy from Starbucks. I see him coming closer and then he sees me. "Sophia?" He questioned, "uh yes, jake right?" I ask and he nods and then sits next to me. "So you really weren't lying, you are going out of town," I smile and nod, "yes I am really going out of town." He nods "is this your seat, or are you just sitting here hoping to get me to talk to you?" I questioned. "oh no this is really my seat, but talking to you is an added bonus," he said and I smile. "So Jake why are you going out to L.A.?" I asked and he smiles, "you will think this is silly but I'm actually auditioning for a tv series." he said and I smile. "I don't think that is silly that is actually what I'm going out here for as well. " I say and he looks at me, "you don't say, thats cool. You know the rules though can't say what the role is," I say with a smile. We continue talking for the duration of the flight and before we know it we are both at LAX. We both get of the plane and head to baggage claim. There is a lot of people at LAX there are some  paparazzi outside but that has never bothered me. I always keep to myself anyways. Once I got my bag I am ready to head to my car. I see Jake following behind me. I then stop and let him catch up. "Would you want to go get dinner?" he asked, I shake my head, "you know I would but its getting late and I have a really big day tomorrow," I say and he nods, "well why don't we exchange numbers so maybe we can get dinner tomorrow, or maybe lunch." he said and I nod, "definitely lunch." I say with a smile. And then we exchanged numbers. We then went our separate ways and I found my car and they drove me to the hotel I was staying at. Once I pulled up I get all my stuff out of the car and go to check into the hotel. I go up to my room and I decide to take my make up off and set my alarm for tomorrow. I then slowly drift off to sleep dreaming about that cute tik Tok boy. 


A/N For those of you who don't know Tik Tok is a social media platform and it is very addictive and very fun. Thank you all for clicking on this story I hope you enjoy and stick around
