Author's Note: This story starts at the Pilot episode. It includes some of the same elements but, it doesn't follow the storyline exactly. After the first episode, the story kinda goes off on its own.

Prologue: Millions of years ago, it was decided that to keep the world from being completely enveloped in evil, there would need to be a creation to keep the spirit of love and hope alive. This creation was named the "soulmate." Few people were ever chosen to become soulmates. They were a couple forever until the end of time. They were immortal, born into new bodies everytime they died. With one kiss, they could unlock the memories of their past lives and experiences. They were both assigned a guardian, an immortal deity that watched over them and guided them to each other. Never had a pair of soulmates never found each other. Betty and Daniel were no exception.

Betty made her way to the elevator. She was so very nervous. Today was her first day of being Executive Assistant to the new Editor-In-Chief of MODE Magazine. "You are a smart, attractive businesswoman." She reminded herself again for the third time. She got onto the elevator at the same time as a curly haired man.

"Hi," she said, "I'm Betty." She extended her hand to him and he shook it.

"Marc Saint James."

"I like your pants," she said, referring to his brown and white striped dress pants.

"Thank you," he said, but didn't compliment her back.

They both got off at the same floor. Betty walked to the reception desk and Marc walked around it and disappeared down the hallway.

The receptionist looked up from filing her nails. "Oh. My. God." The receptionist said.

"Hi. I'm here to check in." Betty said.

"Are you the before?"

"The what?"

"The Before and After shoot. Are you the before?"

"Ummm…"

"Are you de-liv-ering some-thing?" The receptionist asked slowly.

"NO" said Betty, getting slightly offended, "I'm Daniel Meade's new assistant."

"Ohhh…" she said, bringing her eyes down to Betty's "Guadalejara" poncho, down her petite but extremely curvy frame, and back up to the poncho. "Hmmmm…and how much experience have you had?" asked the receptionist, coming from behind the desk and guiding Betty to her new office.

"Oh. This is my first real job."

"That's funny, I was told I don't have enough experience for the job." The receptionist walked away. "I'm Amanda, by the way. Everyone's in the conference room and assistants usually get here before their bosses," she called over her shoulder. Betty made her way to what she believed to be the conference room. Through the glass she spotted what she believed to be the most beautiful man she had ever seen. A strange wave of familiarity came over her that she didn't understand. She wasn't sure if she had ever encountered him before. But she still got this strange sense of déjà vu. Where have I seen him before? Was it in high school? Did we-SMACK!

Betty ran into the glass partition. Everyone turned around to look at her. I t didn't hurt much but she was awfully embarrassed. She got up quickly and adjusted her glasses walking quietly into the room, rubbing her shoulder.

"Are you Ok?" the man asked her.

"Yeah. I'm fine….sorry, I'm fine" she stammered nervously.

She took a seat in the corner.

"Any way, I wish I wasn't the new guy coming in here on such terrible circumstances. I realize I have some awful big teeth-I mean shoes to fill," he said, looking at Betty. She couldn't tell if he was lost in thought, mocking her, or both, "but, I can't tell you how excited I am to be working with such an amazingly talented staff."

A pretty woman with light brown skin interrupted him. "Sorry, I'm late….You started without me." She said with obvious surprise and slight annoyance.

"Sorry Wilhelmina, I-"

"Shhh! Marc, " she snapped her fingers and said, "Gift," and the gentleman from the elevator came out from behind her, bearing a blue box and he handed it to Daniel. Daniel took it hesitantly. The woman crossed to the other side of the room and sat down. The man named Daniel tried to continue the meeting but she interrupted him again, "Well aren't you gonna open it?" He did. It was a beautiful crystal statue that Betty thought must've cost a fortune. "To commemorate your first day here."

"Um. Thank you. Now-" he continued.

"I think we should talk about Fabia Cosmetics. Everyone needs to help with this new idea we need to give her. Get back to work, all of you." The woman adjourned the meeting. "Thank you, Daniel, for a wonderful meeting."

So that was Daniel Meade, Betty's boss. Betty wasn't sure if she was happy or not happy about that. On one hand, she'd be working for a total hottie. On the other hand, her familiarity and strange comfort with the man unsettled her. She felt like she'd never seen him but known him her whole life. She decided to approach him.

"Mr. Meade?" she asked, tapping him on the shoulder. He didn't respond. "Um, Hi…I was just coming to introduce myself personally, I'm Betty Suarez. It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Well, Betty, umm who do you work for?"

"Well actually sir, I work for you. I'm your new assistant."

"Great," he said. Daniel felt like he knew this girl from somewhere, that feeling made him uncomfortable. He went to his office to unpack his stuff. When he got there, he was surprised to see the hot blonde receptionist at his desk. He was pretty sure her name was Amanda.

"Um…hello. May I help you with something?"

"I'll show you underqualified!" she said, pushing him onto the desk and kissing him harshly.

I think I'm gonna like this job. He thought.
