My New Identity (editing)

Chapter 21-London fashion week

It was the first day of London fashion week. I had 3 shows today. I got ready and headed to the venue. I got to the venue and went to get my hair and makeup done. I did the line up and then went to put my clothes on.

"Ok line up" the stage manager said

I did the show and it went smoothly, the other two went fine.

"Stassie, you coming with us?" Lizzie asked

"Yeah" I said

Every first day of the new week of fashion week there is an after party and the last day.

I went to the hotel to drop stuff off and went to the after party.

I hung out with my friends and there were some pretty british guys.

"That guy is checking you out" Olivia pointed to the guy at the bar.

I looked over and he was cute, but I'm in a foreign country don't know anyone.

I've developed trust issues with my brothers and Jackson. It is hard to trust people, they always turn out either rude, abusive, or use me.

"No thanks, just broke up with someone" I said

"YOU BROKE UP WITH JACKSON?" Lizzie said surprisingly

Shit I forgot to tell her

"UM YEAH ILL EXPLAIN LATER" I yelled back

It was 12am and I needed sleep since I'm still jet lagged. I went back to my hotel, I went in my bathroom and changed into my pajamas. I was brushing my teeth when I heard a knock on my door.

More like MANY knocks. I checked the peep hole and it was lizzie

I opened the door.

"Why did you and Jackson break up?" Lizzie asked

I invited her in and she sat on my bed

"Go" she said

I explained everything, to the bruises and to meeting Stefan. I skipped the part about the drug issue.

"Wow, he is an ass. No one should ever lay a hand on a woman" she said

"I know, so I dumped him" I replied

"Good" she replied

"Well thanks for telling me. I'll see you in the morning" Lizzie said

"Ok, goodnight" I replied

She left the room and finished getting ready to bed.

Hey-Stefan

Why was he texting me at 1am

Hi-stassie

Did you reach your hotel okay?-Stefan

How did he know, lowkey creepy

Umm yeah, how did you know?-stassie

Shit sorry, that sounded so weird. I saw you at the after party. You were having fun so I didn't want to disturb you-Stefan

That makes sense

Ohhh, yeah. You should have said hi-stassie

I had to watch my sister, had to make sure she isn't drinking-Stefan

How old is she?-stassie

18-Stefan

So she had a drug problem when she was around 17, just like me
