Chapter 2 - Strange Feelings

Betty woke up that morning to get ready for work. As she put on her badge, she smiled because she actually earned this job. She got hired as a journalist for the New York Times.

Yes, she didn't work at MODE anymore. She quit a week after she went back there.

She really hated working for Wilhelmina. At first she was kind of excited because Wilhelmina was giving her beautiful clothes from the Closet and went with her to a new orthodontist to get her braces removed and even let her work on an article for her, but then it happened. Wilhelmina had started giving her tasks like wearing this lotion that made her break out, then she made her wear these stupid heels for three miles, which she ended up falling into traffic and fracturing her ankle. It was like she was trying to torture her.

Then the woman had the audacity to come up with this evil scheme to get her to seduce Daniel with her new look into falling in love with her...BETTY...and then break his heart. She really despised the woman for even suggesting such a thing. It was then and there that Betty quit. She was fuming with anger thinking about how Sofia had done the same thing to him. It broke her heart to think about what Daniel went through then. She couldn't imagine how much worse it would be if she was to do something like that to him.

It was true that she hadn't spoken to Daniel since she quit Player, but she didn't want to hurt him. She still cared about Daniel. In fact, she missed him like crazy. As soon as she quit she had wanted to go talk to him and tell him that she had quit working for Wilhelmina, but she couldn't bring herself to do that.

Truth was she was scared to see Daniel. Ever since she came back from her cross-country trip she started feeling things. Feelings that she probably should not be having about her friend, her boss. There was no way she should be thinking about Daniel as being anything more than her friend.

It had all started when she walked into Player one day and saw Daniel without a shirt on. He had such an amazing chest...and his back...his arms...He was just a really gorgeous man...a man that she happened to be almost best friends with. After that she'd started fantasizing about him. And some of her 'fantasies' were totally inappropriate. It made her blush thinking about some of them.

Betty realized that she started feeling things for him even before she left on her trip. It all started when he told her to go to Rome with Gio because he couldn't imagine being at MODE without her. The way he looked at her...those blue eyes of his looking so sincere...it made her heart race at the thought of that moment.

When she left she shrugged off her feelings as being silly and just confusion from the whole Henry-Gio situation, but then she came back. When she had seen him she couldn't explain how her heart reacted to seeing him. Even if it was at Player Magazine. She really loved working with Daniel. She just hated Player.

She sighed, but then smiled when she saw her calendar seeing that it was Daniel's birthday today. She smiled bright. She needed to go see him. She missed Daniel so much. She wondered how he was. She hoped he was ok. She tried to send Justin to Meade to spy for her a few times, but when Justin went to Player, Daniel was not there. It bothered her to not know what was going on with Daniel.

She really thought Daniel hated her. He had good reason to. She betrayed him. She felt tears in her eyes at the thought. She didn't want to hurt Daniel. She just wanted what was best for him and she knew it was not working at Player Magazine. He was better than that.

Since it was her first day, she was just training and shadowing an established journalist until lunch that day. After, she would go see Daniel. She smiled at the thought. She really hoped he'd forgive her for what she'd done. She missed him.
