Chapter 1
"Mom! Hurry up! You can see the city some other time!" Blake called behind her to her mom, Kim, in the LAX.
"But, Blake, honey, look at everything!"
Blake sighed and continued to walk, hoping her mom was behind her.
"There's Kelly. Come on, Mom!"
"Okay, okay, I'm coming, I'm coming." She ran to catch up with Blake who was already being greeted by Kelly Wainwright.
"I'm so excited to actually be in California! This is insane." Blake exclaimed.
"We're so excited to have you!" Kelly replied, "We have a limo waiting for you outside. Let me help you with your things."
Neither Blake or her mom had much; they had both come from a small town in Indiana where Blake's dad was still living. They were by no means rich, but they always had enough.
As soon as the limo started driving away, Kelly started talking to Blake and her mom about how things would work at the Palmwoods and Rocque Records. Blake had a hard time paying attention; it seemed as if she had suddenly become as interested in the city as her mom was in the airport.
"Like Gustavo said before, you'll have a few demos and hopefully a full album. Blake?"
"Yeah? Oh! I'm so sorry."
Kelly laughed, "It's all right, everyone's like this when they first get here. It's Hollywood, after all." She smiled and continued talking to Kim, leaving Blake to see the rest of the scenery on the way to the Palmwoods.
When they arrived, Kelly helped Blake and Kim grab their suitcases and started walking to the hotel with Kim. Blake was walking slowly behind them, in awe of how amazing everything looked. She looked up to the top of the tall building and smiled.
"This is gonna be awesome," she whispered to herself.
"Hey, look out!" She heard someone yell behind her.
She turned around just in time to get hit in the face with a frisbee.
