I think it's around midnight and I'm in the room sewing. Even though I originally thought I was going to be working with Tim Gunn, it turns out I was wrong. I mean I was with him for a day and I met all the other interns then we were told what designers we are going to actually intern for. My designer was the one the only Michael Kors.

I had gone into three meeting with him, I have shadowed him for a week and apart from that I have been sewing for his new line. Most of the time I answer to the head of the interns Shannon. If I'm not sewing, I'm picking up fabric or doing the coffee runs. I have been working so hard I feel like my brain might explode. I have just clocked out and make my way back to my hotel room.

I fall onto my bed and just as I am about to close my eyes my phone rings. I groan and pick it up, "what do you want?" I hear a laugh on the other side, "well hello to you to kitty cat. I know it's late and I probably woke you up but I need to talk." I sigh, "you didn't wake me up, I was just getting back from work." He huffs, "you need to sleep, I really don't need you dying on me. Now, as you know me and my family are getting back tomorrow. Now Cassie wants to meet up to talk, what does she mean by talk."

I shake my head and laugh, "Maybe she wants to catch up, or talk about your future and collage. Or..." I pause not wanting to say it but he says anyway, "or she wants to break up with me. You know what I'm gonna break up with her first." I quickly say, "no way. What if she is going to say I love you and then you break up with her at the same time. Just wait and see what she has to say. Now I need sleep, because tomorrow is my last day, Michael is going to look at my work and write me a letter of recommendation, then I have a meeting with Tim Gunn. After that I finally get a free day to relax." He laughs, "you have fun. I'll let you sleep, love you kitten." I smile, "I love you too happy feet."

My alarm goes off and I see it's around 6 in the morning. I get up do my makeup and get dressed for a hot day in New York. (outfit above.) I rush out of the hotel and get a taxi, the taxi then pulls over at a coffee shop and I ask it to wait. I run in and check my pager to see what the coffee order is under. I go over the counter, "order for Grace Becket." The guy hands me a two up holders with around eight coffees, "I'm guessing it's on the tab?" I nod, "yep."

I speed walk back to the taxi and it takes me to the office. I pay the man and walk into the office building with my coffees. I walk into the elevator and see another intern Harry, "sup, Harry. Could you press the button for me." He nods, "sure Christina." After the fall out with my dad I don't like people calling me Chris anymore. When we get to our floor I say bye and start handing out the coffee.

I get to the desk with my own coffee at around 8. As I sit down my phone start to ring, "hello Christina Gilmore speaking." "Chris you need to--" I hang up the phone and walk away from my desk and to my work station and start sewing what I was doing last night. Harry then walks up to me, "you know it happens every morning. You pick up the phone say hi and then put it down five seconds later. Who is it." I sigh, "It's my dad, who I hate. He played with my mom's heart and mine and my sister's. I am never going to trust that man again. Now back to work before Shannon yells at us."

Michael walks in the room around 10 and we all stand up and look at him, "Christina, you ready?" I nod, "yes just let me get the book." I go to my desk and get my sketch book and then walk with him to his office. We sit down and he looks through it and the photos of the ones I've made. He nods, "this is amazing, not only is the work you've done for me been perfect but you designs are even better. I think I should call a meeting with the interns." I nod smiling taking my book back and we walk back out.

We all crowd round him and he says, "I have had the last intern meeting and I have something to tell you. Only two of you will get letters of recommendation. The first one I have picked because she has been working the hardest and all of her sewing is perfect. She is the last to leave and her own designs are amazing. Christina Gilmore congratulations." Everyone claps and tells me congrats and I looks around and see Addy glaring at. Michel then continues, "The second person is getting this because his sewing is amazing as well and his own work is at high standard. He may need a little work but he shows great promise, he is always there to help every one of you. Harry Walters congratulations. Now everyone back to work."

I pack up my bag and Harry comes over with a big smile, "congrats Gilmore, so do you want to celebrate tonight. I mean we only have a half day." I smile, "sure why not. I have to meet with Tim Gunn but come by my hotel around 6." He nods, "it's a date." Once he walks away Abby comes up to me, "I deserved that letter not you, I bet he picked you out of pity. I mean look at you, you live in a small town with a single mother. It's just pitiful." I roll my eyes, "whatever, go bother someone else." I take my bag and sketch book and leave.

I walk into the meeting and sit down, "so Christina, I heard you go the letter of recommendation form Michael. You really do deserve this Christina, I hope you know that, also I have just finished writing my own letter. Here, feel free to read it and have a great rest of your day. You should be very proud." I smile, "thank you so much Tim." He smiles, "off you go, be young and have fun." I nod and leave.

I get back the hotel and put my book and bag away. I call mom and Rory with the news then Noah. "So kitten you got two letters from big fashion people. I am so proud, so what are you gonna wear on this date." I lay back, "I don't know, I might wear something I made. I have a dress I brought with me, I might wear that. You know the one with the thing and the thing." I can tell he's smiling, "when the date's over I want details."

A/N: Do you think the date will go well, do you think she's over Logan enough to enjoy it. Read to find out. I hope you liked the first part comment what you think.
