Ashley walked into the mall, arms linked with her best friend, Paige. It was their day out and no one could ruin it. They could only make it better. And they did.

A young man comes up to them. He looks pretty decent looking. He has light brown curly skater-hair. His eyes are a gorgeous shade of green, lime in fact. He has a little stubble on his chin and along his jaw-line.

"Hello, ladies, I'm Ryan."

"Hi, I'm Paige and this is Ashley."

"It's a pleasure to meet you. Say, Ashley, would you be interested in modeling?"

"Modeling? Me?"

"Of course! You're gorgeous! The agency would love you!"

"You're an agent," Paige and Ash asked simultaneously.

"Oh yeah, I forgot! Here's my card." Ryan said, handing Ash a business card.

"Thanks," Ash replied.

"Call me!"

Ryan walks away to another store. Paige turns to Ash. They both shriek.

"Oh my god! I'm so excited for you!"

"Oh my god! This is awesome!"

"'Kay, Ash, that guy was hott. But, was he for real?"

"Totally!"

"You should, like, call him back and schedule a shoot."

"I think I might just do that… Do you mind if I don't go over your house tomorrow?"

"I totally don't mind."

"Thanks, Paige."

"No probs. Now, let's get shopping!"

They shop for a few hours. After 3 hours, they get exhausted. It's time to get home. Paige drives Ashley home. Ashley throws her bags in the living room and runs to the kitchen, where her mom is.

"Mom, you won't believe what happened today! Paige and I were shopping and all of a sudden this guy comes up to us and asks if I was interested in modeling! He even gave me his card and everything! Can you believe it," Ashley shouted, pulling out the business card. Her mom took it from her and examined it.

"Wow, Ashley, I always knew you were beautiful, but I never expected you to be discovered!"

"Thanks, mom. He told me that I should call and schedule an appointment."

"When do you want to go?"

"Tomorrow?"

"Sure, Ashley. Now go call that agent," Mrs. Kerwin said, handing Ash the business card.

"Okay!"

Ashley runs upstairs to her room. She flops down on her bed and calls the number on the business card.

"Hello, Mandell's Modeling Agency, Ryan Mandell speaking, how may I help you," asked a voice from the other end.

"Hi, Ryan, it's Ashley, from the mall."

"Ashley…? Oh, yes, Ashley! Calling to make an appointment?"

"Yes. Is tomorrow good?"

"Absolutely. How about 7ish?"

"In the morning?"

"No, silly! In the afternoon!"

"7 PM? Why so late?"

"I run errands and scout during the day and I don't finish until late."

"Oh. Okay. You had me scared for a second there!"

"Why would I want to scare you?"

"Beats me. Oh, well, I better get going. Bye!"

"I can't wait to see you tomorrow! Bye!"

Ashley hung up, confused. Why did he say that? Maybe he hasn't had a lot of models coming for shoots lately. I'm probably his first in months. I feel bad for him, the poor guy, Ashley thought.

I hope you loved it. I have a lot of really old fics from my better days. LOL! tell me if you'd like to see them. oh, and read and review, please!
