A/N: Here's the second chapter…I was seriously thinking about putting up a Valentine's chapter because that would fit in with Valentine's (Not romance yet, but something funny) But I think that'll be next chapter…it will be a late tribute to Valentine's Day. Anyway thank you to the following for reviewing.

It was past noon, and I was still at my desk, working on a god-awful column I had promised my editor. If I had anything to do with it, Star Shine magazine would not go under. I know I can't single handedly stop 'International Magazine' from taking us, but I can sure try. Let me tell you, if I could meet the owner in person, I would rip him a new—

"Mr. Malfoy, your copy is due at 5 p.m. on the dot, please resume working."

"Yes Kate, I was simply taking a break, if that is alright with you." I replied back in a tone. Like hell I would let a secretary tell me off. Though I had cut myself off from most of my family except my mother, I still had a bit of that Malfoy Pride.

"Let me tell you something," Kate started out, tone very much menacing. "If you think that you can 'simply take a break' when poor Ms. Norbury sits around ripping her hair out over 'International Magazine' then you have another thing coming. We will not fail as a business because one of our writers was simply 'taking a break'. Get back to work…NOW!"

"Fine, I will then." I said begrudgingly, knowing I should settle down if I didn't want to lose my job.

"Oh," she said as a light afterthought, "You have a meeting with the manager of 'International Magazine' tomorrow afternoon. Ms. Norbury feels that you are equipped to handle the job, as she will be out of town."

My mouth must have dropped ten floors at that moment. She wanted me to do her dirty work? She wanted me to meet with the manager of that stupid magazine, when I'm just the advice columnist?

Kate smirked at my discomfort. "She says that her pieces of advice to you, as an advice columnist, is think of your job and then dress nicely tomorrow if you want to keep it."

With that, she was going, swishing her hips and clicking her heels on the wooden floors. Oh how he despised that woman. Not to mention Ms. Norbury…where did she get off telling him to be the representative of the whole entire magazine? How was he supposed to do that anyway? He didn't even know how to get here on time, and he barely made deadlines. Hell, if he didn't love to write as much as he did, he'd probably have chosen a different and higher paying field of career. He was so NOT equipped to handle this.

By three in the afternoon, I was contemplating suicide. I mean seriously, there were at least ten more copies of letters he had to go through, and then he had to write responses to them. I couldn't afford to make any mistakes, and time was running out. Two hours…I have two hours.

"Mr. Potter…you're going to have to stop falling asleep like that." Gwen looked down at me from her standing position.

"Yeah, sorry Gwen, I just haven't been feeling very well lately."

"We've arrived in the United States of America, sir. I thought you might want to know. We'll check you into your hotel and you can sleep until 8 p.m., when we will be joining your agent for dinner. The restaurant will be your choice sir."

"Thank you Gwen. I appreciate it. Listen, could you let me sleep in the truck on the way to the hotel? I'll give you a $100 bonus." I tantalizingly offered.

She seemed uncertain for a moment, and then she cracked into a grin…a small one, but a grin at that. "As you wish sir…I shouldn't be indulging you but a little bonus never hurt anyone."

"Thanks Gwen, you're the best, you know that?"

"Yes, I do." She nodded slightly, and then went up to the front of the jet to prepare for landing procedures.

Tonight was going to be a long night. I could feel it. Something in me told myself that I needed to enjoy the rest while I had it because it would be in short supply over the month I would be visiting here. With meetings sprinkled here and there through out the month and stern lectures he was sure to get from his agent, my schedule did not look so clear and bright.

Then there was that meeting with the editor of Star Shine magazine tomorrow. I am not looking forward to that at all. I hear her name is Ms. Norbury, and she can really throw a tantrum, when she wants to. I wouldn't blame her though, because I'm about to take away her rising success, and her business.

Slowly I rubbed my hands up and across my face, trying to rub the sleep out of my eyes. As one hand slid back down, I saw Gwen staring at me and standing in the doorway.

"Mr. Potter I have just been informed that you will not be meeting with the editor of Star Shine tomorrow." Gwen paused, and my face brightened considerably. A day off?

"You will be meeting with the Advice Columnist tomorrow. You will be having lunch at the Aldo Café and he will be representing Star Shine Magazine, as the editor is currently on leave."

"WHAT?" I screamed, not at her, but in frustration. "As of WHEN did Ms. Norbury go on leave?" I asked as politely as I could through gritted teeth.

"This afternoon sir."

I think…that maybe my yell of frustration could be heard clear downtown at the offices of Star Shine Magazine, and the advice columnist who I was to meet with, should be shaking at his desk right now.

A/N: Well…there's the second chapter…I know it's not as long as most expect it to be, but I hope it is good enough. I'm trying harder to make the lengths longer, and I'm sure they will be soon. But I am still working out the finer details. I am sure you all will enjoy the next chapter to come out…it has a special surprise!
