What Dreams Are Made Of: Reality

OK, so every teenage girl dreamed of meeting the famous movie star Ved Parker, but it never occurred to Cloe Collins that her dream would become reality. She had to admit, that when she heard Ved Parker was coming to go to their school, because of a project, her head was filled with dreams of Ved seeing her and falling madly in love, but so were those of her friends and female peers. Cloe Collins was popular, but she wasn't a mean person, not at all, she was popular, because everyone knew she would listen if they had a problem and help them come up with a solution. Because of these things she was the head of student council and class president, and because of these things it was her who was allowed to show Ved Parker around, and because of these things her classes were shifted in order for her to be Ved's 'chaperone'. But that didn't mean she wasn't like any other girl her age, that didn't mean she didn't want Ved to herself.

At the moment she was sitting in the huge assembly hall of her school, and watching her principal hold a speech, but for once she wasn't listening, she was trying to concentrate on what she would say to the school when it was her turn to be on the podium. Her thoughts though always returned to a certain actor who would be arriving shortly.

Finally the principal, Mr. Demko, wrapped up and left the stage to Cloe, who walked up to the pulpit and started her speech:

"Good morning fellow students. I'm sure you all know that we will be getting a new student today and that he is a very famous actor. Now I would like to ask all of you some favor concerning your behavior towards said actor: 1 When he arrives, please do not faint." The boys snickered. "2 please do not run towards and ask him for an autograph, as we are not at a signing, and last but not least 3 at least TRY to treat him like a normal person."

More people laughed, but this time they were looking behind her, but she merely continued, "I'm not going to recite hours of 'make him feel at home' to you, because I doubt anyone would listen, so with that I will just leave you free to return to your classes."

Cloe smiled at the students, who were all quite happy, that they wouldn't be hearing another endless speech, and turned around to find THE Ved Parker looking down at her. At first Cloe thought she might faint regardless of what she had told the others, but then again if she fainted, she wouldn't be able to look at Ved Parker's gorgeous eyes. When he actually opened his mouth to talk to her, she had trouble keeping her wits together in order to answer him when he said:

"Hey that was a good speech, I just know from experience that some people won't be able to refrain themselves from asking for my autograph. I've never had any girl faint at my sight before though..." He trailed off.

"Thanks." Was all Cloe managed to say.

They stood there a few more moments, him trying to make eye contact and her desperately trying not to look into his eyes.

"Well I gotta get to class." She said and turned around.

"Wait."

"What?"

"Aren't you Cloe Collins?"

"Yes. So?"

"Well, then you're the one who's supposed to show me around."

"Oh, yeah, sorry, I forgot." Cloe stuttered.

"OK, so I've got Math first..."

"Me too, follow me."
