I have no homework today, so I might even get another chapter done. Hope you all like it! BTW, thank you Haley, only because the only car I could think of was a jeep from your story. :3 haha Please review with any ideas! I will take any suggestions into consideration.
I woke up the next morning feeling very tired. When Ali and I got home we finished our movie, which we've seen a thousand times and it never gets old. After the movie ended and I was getting ready to go to sleep, Logan texted me. We talked until, like, 2 in the morning! I was so happy I didn't have to go to work today. I walked out into the living room and Ali was sitting watching something on E! and eating a bowl of cereal. She looked up when she saw me enter the room.
"Hey sleepy head. Glad to see your living. Who were you texting last night?"
"What? What are you talking about?" I asked scrubbing the eye sleepies out of my eyes.
"Oh please, don't act all innocent. I went to get some water at about one and I saw you on your phone. Close the door next time." She shoved a huge spoonful of cereal into her mouth. "So who was it?" She mumbled.
"Oh, it was no one really. Just Logan." She almost choked on her huge spoonful. You could see the surprise on her face. I couldn't restrain from laughing.
"What? Are you serious? How did you get his number?" She said it all so fast it took me a second to process it all.
"He gave it to me yesterday at The Pizza Shop." I said it as casually as I could, even though I knew she would think it's a big deal. It's probably not, I mean, he probably doesn't even like me that way. There's no way. If he is even a little famous, he probably likes a completely different, celebrity type girl.
"Oh. My. God. That's amazing!" Her face immediately started glowing. That wasn't a good sign. She had a huge imagination. I mean huge, and she tended to blow some things out of proportion. "Are you guys, like dating? What did you talk about? Tell me everything!" She went and curled up on the couch.
"Ali, we are NOT dating. I doubt he even likes me like that. And we just talked about normal stuff. Ya know, like some of the stuff we talk about. Minus the girl stuff, it was a normal, fun, relaxed conversation." I looked her straight in the eyes to let her know I was serious.
"Kenz, he GAVE you his number, he obviously likes you. At least a little!" She had a serious look on her face. I still couldn't believe it. I doubt it's true.
"Look, I'm gonna go for a run, you wanna come?" She said no and continued watching her E! program. I shrugged and went to put on my pink short and my grey tank top, put my hair up in a ponytail, grabbed my ipod, and shuffled out the door. I put my Luke Bryan albums on shuffle and started to jog down the street.
What if he does like me? He can't like me. It's not possible. Or is it? No, it can't be. There's no way. Okay, I have to get him off my mind. I can't keep thinking about him. Okay, random things, random things… Let's see, monkey's, oranges, bikes, mice, the moon, Italian food, paper, trees, the sea… Oh crap! I have an audition today! What was it for…. Oh yeah! That movie that's being shot in Australia.
I start to go through my lines for the audition when I realized I had no idea where I was. I was so zoned out, that I ended up by the beach somehow. It was crowded with people! I didn't know we lived so close! I was taking in the ocean water when something wacked me in the head. I turn around and a guy with brown hair and sunglasses running towards me.
"Heh, sorry, I was a little bit off on my aim… Hey! Kenzie, right?" He smiled when he figured out my name, but I had no idea who he was. I think he got that from the confused look on my face.
"Oh, I'm sorry, you don't remember me! It's me, James. We met last night." He smiled again. It all came back to me now. He was the one talking to Ali!
"Oh! Right, you were the one talking to Ali!" He just nodded and smiled.
"Yeah… How is she anyway?" He was actually asking. Not just to make conversation. She was gonna freak.
"She's fine. A little tired, and same old same old." I laughed, since Ali was never same old same old. I think James got that last night, because he laughed too. I looked down and realized no sound was coming from my ipod, and then when I clicked it, I saw it was 12:30… Oh crap! My audition was in an hour! And I have no idea how far I was from home. "Oh no.. Oh no oh no!" I started muttering.
"What?"
"I have an audition in an hour and I have no idea where I am!" I began looking around, but I totally forgot the way I came. "I have to be at Sunset Studios… Do you know where that is?"
"Yeah, I go by there a lot. If you want, Carlos and I can give you a ride?" He turned around and pointed at Carlos, who was chatting with 2 girls.
"Really? Thank you! That would be so nice!" He smiled and said
"Great. Let me just go get Carlos, come on." He started off towards Carlos and I followed. He whispered something to Carlos, and he we were walking to a Jeep in the parking lot. I got in back while Carlos drove and James in the passenger's seat. "So, what's this big audition for?"
"Well, I don't know if it's exactly BIG, but it's still a good role. It's kind of an adventure type thing. The role I want is a lead pirate of a crew. She sounds pretty cool." James smiled and Carlos just went WOAH. I giggled. "The only problem is if I get it, I would have to go to Australia for about a year and a half. And I'm still getting used to living here. It would be hard to just pick up and move across the world for 18 months."
"Yeah, I can see where that would be tough. Do you think you'll get it?" James turned around and looked at me.
"I don't know. I mean, if I did, it would be my first professional role. I would love to get it, because I've been dreaming about this for, like, ever! I've always wanted to be an actress."
"Well, if it helps, just remember you have the support of me, Carlos, Kendall, and especially Logan." He turned around and winked when he said Logan's name. I could feel myself start to blush, so I just looked out the window. Before I knew it, we were at the studio.
"Okay, well thanks for the ride! I really appreciate it! Say hi to Kendall and Logan for me." I got out of the jeep and waved at them, running backwards. They both wave and drive away.
I run through the doors and run to the room I'm supposed to be in. The secretary lady said I was supposed to go in at 1:35. I look at my watch, and see it's 1:26. I go into the bathroom and make sure I look alright. I redo my ponytail and wash my face to get off any sweat. This is the best I can look for right now, now I just have to do the actual part.
I go sit in the waiting room, and time appears to be taking forever. Just for me. I don't think my name will ever be called until a lady came out and said
"McKenzie Holidey, you're up."
I take a deep breath, get up, and walk to my hopefully good destiny.
