Theme song: I don't want to be by Gavin DeGraw
Biting her lower lip Katy looks at the apartment number on the door then down at the paper in hand. She had moved from a small town in Ohio to New York where she could write and train dogs for disabled and PTSD Army Vets, her own Germen Shepered dog Jack Skellington Sparrow sitting beside her.
The paper was asking for a roommate, to which she answered enthusiastically she knocked on the door. She was a nervous wreck living with an unknown stranger was a bad idea even her mom told her but she needed the place.
The door opens and to her surprise and shock stood the most handsome man she had ever seen "ok Evans just breath don't be drooling all over him." She thought to herself as she held out her right fingerless gloved hand "Hi I'm Katy Evans your new roomie and this is Jack Skellington Sparrow and yes that is his name no joke." She smiled.
The man raised an eye brow as she looked him over, yup movie star gorgeous, blue eyes, long straight sandy brown hair.
He too seemed to be looking at her she was wearing a shirt with an angry panda face that said "I'm silently judging you", fingerless gloves, black skinny jeans, black boots with Harley Davidson emblem on the front, her hair brown with auburn highlights.
"Hi Derek Lord nice to meet." He said as he took her hand shaking it, letting her in she looked around Jack walking beside her wagging his tail. Derek also notice a dog service vest around its body, not wanting to pry he didn't ask.
Looking around Katy was impressed with the place it was big with living room/dining room, an open kitchen, and balcony. She nodded with a satisfied smile "nice place I like it." She says as she flops a messenger bag she was holding onto the wood floor.
Derek nodded "thanks try to keep it clean but with all the parties I have."
Katy turns and raises an eye brow "parties what you some big movie star?" she asked.
"No more like Rock star." He said with a smirk his hands on his hips.
Blinking a bit Katy tilted her head, she then remembered Derek Lord a famous Rock star how had she missed this? Her friend Jay was into him and would play a couple of his songs "OH YEAH! My friend back in Ohio was into you well it's nice to meet you!"
Chuckling Derek nodded "it's nice to meet you as well." He was happy the girl only recognized him threw his music and not the trial that he went through last year. It was bad enough people looked down on him now because of his anti-psychotherapy because of his child hood story.
"So may I ask where I'm staying or is it the living room?" she asked mirroring him her hands on her hips. He smirked at her "well I could show you but I'll let you find it." He winked at her. Shaking her head she wandered down a hall way to her right Jack still at her heels.
Finding the bed room Katy nodded already knowing what she was going to do, she walks back to grab her messenger bag and entered her new room.
