Summary: C.C. has always dreamed of becoming a star, and staring with her idol the famous Lelouch Lamperouge, when Euphemia li Britannia went missing and C.C. has to take her role as the lead finally reaching her dreams, C.C. wishes that she had just stick as a waitress
"Kring!Kring!"
C.C.'s alarm rang, waking her at 6:30 a.m., lazily she got up, rubbed her eyes and yawned, today was just an ordinary day nothing significant and the only thing to look forward to was the smell of freshly-baked pizza and the morning news.
C.C. lives in a small room, with a closet, television, a table, a bed and a comfort room. She prepared a cup of coffee and switched the television on.
"Good morning everyone!"
Greeted a blond-haired girl, who reported about the glamour of Hollywood.
"Since, the start of this month news has been spreading that Lelouch Lamperouge and his present girlfriend Euphemia li Britannia would be tying the knot soon. This news is still a rumour, but fans of Lelouch and Euphie need not worry for they would have an upcoming movie, to be released this Valentine's Day. Besides Leouch and Euphie are still too young to tie the knot, might as well settle with a movie for the mean time. Until then, this is Milly Ashford, reporting for JBN News. Stay tune."
After the segment the commercials begun airing and C.C. went to her comfort room to bathe, while in the shower she thought about how great it would be to have everything.
"Euphie is so lucky."
C.C. breathed, as she felt the water loudly clashing her skin and hurriedly ran down her slender back, feeling chills as cold air wrapped her bare skin. Oh well, she's not living a completely sad life anyway. She has a roof under her head, though leaky, has food to eat, though cold, has clothes to wear though old, and oversized. She was perfectly normal too, no disabilities. C.C. had just turned 18, and is taking night classes, her schooling was almost over, and finally she would have lesser bills to pay.
As she wore here long sleeved red stripped white collared shirt, and brown loose pants, she remembered that her rent was due next week, and she has no money to pay with. She better find a side-line, if she wants to keep her leaky-roof up above her head. Then she glanced at her wall clock, and hurried to the pizza restaurant she was working at.
On the way there she rode a bus, seeing two girls headed to school reading a magazine with Euphie and Lelouch as the cover, weirdly she thought how much money they were given to pose for a picture. Probably enough to pay for her rent for five years. As she arrived her destination the moment she got off, she was greeted by a vendor selling news paper with Lelouch and Euphie at the front page. Geez, they were getting really popular, but it's not like she's one to spit at their fame, though she looks like she doesn't care about anything except paying her bills she is a supporter of Lelouch and Euphie, and even though Lelouch might not remember, one day she wants to meet him and say "Hi!". Simple, yet soo hard.
"Good morning."
C.C. greeted her fellow employees as she entered the restaurant. They were busy making sure all was well, but they also stopped and said hello.
C.C. tied her hair into a pony-tail then wore the dark-green cap with the pizza store's logo and a dark-green apron she then proceeded to help the others organize. Then she heard to girl employees giggled.
"Hey did you know, the new movie of Lelouch and Euphie is having auditions for extras?"
"Really? Even for that the movie holds auditions? Woah, they really want everything to be perfect don't they."
"Yeah, the auditions would be at the plaza's auditorium at 4pm. Many are coming later, if not for the job at least a chance to see the stars."
This caught C.C. attention.
"Uhm, excuse me, Liza? Do you happen to know how much would they pay for an extra?"
"From, what I heard from my friend $55 per take, not bad though, for just walking normally at a scene."
"Hey C.C., are you planning to audition?"
Asked the other girl.
"I, think, you're ganna do fine, I mean you're pretty and all, an agent might discover you and you might end up being and actress or a model."
The girl added.
"Yeah, C.C. you should audition."
"Thanks Liza, Micah, I guess I would."
With that C.C. went back to work and smiled to herself and thought...
"Hmm, money, a chance to meet Lelouch and possibly fame, what does a girl like me have to lose?"
As C.C. shift was over at 3:00pm, she quickly ran to the plaza. She was surprised to find a long line of people, like they were auditioning for American Idol, and not as extras. But even if C.C.'s number seems like forever, surprisingly the line was fast it seemed like that the people just entered and excited, after about an hour it was already C.C.'s turn, earlier than forever.
C.C. stepped in and entered quietly.
"Well, aren't you ganna say anything?"
A man asked.
"Like what?"
"Hmm, you're not like the others that try to impress us, and you look good too. You have a certain mysterious aura surrounding you. What's your name?"
"C.C."
"Is there any means for me to call you by?"
"Yeah."
"Then what are you waiting for darling? Write them down."
The man said as he handed her a piece of paper. Before she exited, she was handed a calling card, of the person who interviewed her. Then her shadow left the building completely.
"Are you sure of your decision? I mean she didn't even look like she was interested."
"Precisely."
The man said as he excited the room through the backdoor.
"Suzaku."
The man said as he looked back at the man, and removed the fake wig, moustache and eyeglasses he wore.
"You go hire the real extras."
----Meanwhile---
As C.C. was near her apartment, she wondered if she got the job, then she realized that she didn't even know the name of the man who interviewed her, she looked at the calling card and it read "Suzaku Kururugi". But after reading the name C.C. felt so unsure.
