-Enter to have chance to be in New Moon –
Hmm this looks interesting. Click
Oh ok I can definitely do this, it's only a minute video. Easy as pie.
A couple months later….
Dear Ms. Monoca,
I am excited to inform you that you have won our contest to be a part of Twilight's New Moon. Included in this package is all the information needed for the casting of New Moon.
Sincerely, the cast director of Twilight's New Moon, Lisa Woods
See you soon!
HOLY SHIT! I can't believe this. I just turned 20 like yesterday and this honestly is the best gift a girl can get. I've fricken read all of Stephanie Meyer's books since they came into my town's library. And I'm needed in Vancouver in two weeks. Boy do I need to go shopping.
"Linz you wanna hear the fucken best news in the world?!"
"What that you finally got a boyfriend and you can stop obsessing over Edward Cullen. Ha-ha"
"No but it does deal with Edward Cullen you lil slut."
"OMG NO F_EN WAY! You won that contest. Wow honestly that wasn't even your best video. But congrats baby. So when you leaving?"
"Well that's the thing I need to be in Vancouver in two weeks. So wanna go shopping?"
"Do you honestly need to ask? Pick me up in 15 minutes, off to the mall like a herd of turtles!"
Linz and I have been best friends since we were three, honestly. Our dads were in this Grateful Dead tribute band when we were kids so we grew up on classical rock and total stoner papas. That probably explains our sense of style. At least one part of every outfit had some form of tie dye when we were growing up. Weird I know but we were votes most unique in high school and that's all that matters. From the first look of Linz and me you would think we were total stereotypical hippies but nope, I'm straightedge. I mean I haven't even had my first kiss yet, ok well first real kiss. Sad, I know but no one has been worth these full lips. I always have my nose stuck in a book and learning foreign languages. I'm fluent in French, Dad's side of the family, and Spanish, stepmother's side of the family, and I'm pretty good in Russian. That might explain why no boys really took interest in me in high school, that and probably the fact that I had bleached and blue dreads for some part of my freshman year, fashion mistake 50 million. Luckily I have a little bit of style now. I went away to college for a while and grew up a bit. Unfortunately, I lost interest in the school and stopped going around the start of the Spring semester.
"Linz? Should I get my hair re-dyed? You know like a natural color instead of this blonde crap? I think a chocolate brown; with you know neon purple underneath," I asked my best friend Lindsay, aka Linz, as we dropped off some of our shopping bags into my big green 4x4 Dodge Ram.
"Nhia that is probably the sexiest color you have tried yet. Wait aren't you a natural brunette you dork?"
"Yeah, come on you lil hoe," I yelled to her as I pulled her into our favorite salon, Bocage. Two hundred dollars later between both of us, we came out looking sexy and ready for our celebratory evening.
Later that night at Lindsay's house..
"Camera?" "Check."
"Popcorn?" "Check!"
"Pizza?" "Extra cheese check"
"Virgin Daiquiris?" "Double check."
"Twilight DVD?" "Triple check"
Lindz and I clink our daiquiri glasses together, "To your amazing video skills and my amazing shopping skills. Maybe you leave Vancouver with many stories to share and picture only to be noted by 'omg'-ness!"
Two weeks later…
I just stepped off the plane in Vancouver. Tired beyond belief, I searched the area for a sign of where I should go. Ah! I found this blonde woman around 35 years old holding a sign stating "Linhia Monoca". I believe I have found my savior.
"Miss Monoca," the blonde woman asked as I approached her.
"Yes, Nhia is fine," I replied sleepily. Man, I shouldn't have stayed up the night before reading New Moon for the 30th time.
"Nhia, I'm Lisa, the Casting director for New Moon. I loved your video sweetie. I'm so glad you won. The cast helped actually pick the winner."
"No shit wow. Oh sorry I didn't mean to swear. I swear when I'm tired. Bad habit."
"Nhia, its fine. If you would follow me, we'll be heading to the hotel you will be staying at. Tomorrow you will meet the cast and start shooting your scene by the end of the day," Lisa explained as we headed to our limo.
I ended up staying at this small hotel, smaller than I expected at least. We arrived there very late around 10:30 at night so I went straight to bed. The next morning I woke early to get myself ready to meet the cast. I really couldn't believe I was actually going to meet everyone. I straightened my, now, long brown hair and put it in a loose messy bun with the purple part sticking out from my knit hat. I wore the cutest dress Linz ever bought me. She said if this dress didn't get Mr. Cullen's heart pumping then her theory of him being gay maybe true. I don't know why she thought this dress would give a big reaction. It's just a black short sleeved dress that just barely hit my knees with a huge pink and purple belt. I guess the heels make my legs look longer. Lindsay says so at least, so no leggings today even when it is only 60 degrees F this morning. Camera is in the purse, cell phone to send Linz a tease pic of Mr. Rathbone, all there perfect. I walked down the hall to the elevator and almost fainted when I saw that fricken Mr. Edward Cullen himself was waiting for the elevator too!
"Good morning you must be the girl who made that sick video. I'm Rob, as you probably already know that."
"Uh huh," nodding my head. HOLY CRAP! I meet the man of many of my sex dreams and all I can say is uh huh. Watch up you stupid bitch!
I cleared my throat and tried to make small talk as the elevator doors opened. "Oh that video was nothing. I'm a graphics major, well best friend Lindsay thought it was decent considering I was so drunk when I made it." Shit did I really just say that! I really wasn't drunk I was just buzzed from Lindsay's engagement party.
"A party girl, well you should go out tonight with us after shooting. You'll fit in well with us," Rob smiled that damn sexy crooked smile. Oh melt!
After surviving the elevator ride with Rob down to the conference room, I entered the room where I would meet the rest of the cast and have pictures taken and receive information about my part in the movie.
"Hey everyone, I want you to meet the winner of our Video contest, Miss Linhia Monoca," Lisa introduced me to the cast.
All I can say is they are sexier than I ever imagined. Someone was missing from the cast though. Hmm…who though. Just then the doors opened up to the conference room and in walks the sexiest boy I have ever met. Those big brown eyes and those bright teeth as he smiled slyly. How did I ever miss that about him?
"Hey I'm Taylor," the sexy boy came over to me and shook my hand. "You're the girl from the video contest right. Sorry I'm late, my alarm didn't go off. Oops," he gave a big hearty laugh. Oh that laugh is intoxicating I swear. If it wasn't for sitting on the side of the table I would have fainted. These shoes were not made for fainting or stumbling either.
"Lisa, did I miss the group pic," Taylor said shyly.
"Yeah you did Taylor, good going," Lisa said with a small chuckle. "Hey Nhia, you want to retake the group pic or you mind just taking a solo pic with Taylor," Lisa asked me.
"Huh oh, I don't care. I think Kristen and Ashley left to go over lines. So I guess I can live with a solo pic," I said trying not to make it obvious that I was in a daze from Taylor's gorgeousness. "You want to do a funny pic for my phone too? My friend's sis will flip if she sees a picture with you and me. She's only ten years old."
"Oh sure. Do you want a cute picture for your camera too," Taylor asked slyly, "and if you can, can you send it to my phone,"
"Of course." I clicked the picture on my camera phone. Then Lisa took the picture on my camera and I swear to Bob, Taylor tried to grab my ass! No fucken lie. Hmm... The feeling is muchel! Oh Young Frankenstein.
