"This is where you'll be staying," Mrs. Bradley said, opening a hotel room for Nicole. "You're having dinner with the boys at eight tonight in the hotel restaurant. There's a few dresses you can choose from hanging, or you can wear one of your own."
"Thanks," Nicole said, but Ethel was already gone.
At eight o' clock, Nicole met up with Ben and Josh. She was wearing a red dress then went down to the floor, but had a slit halway up the thigh on both sides. It was sleeveless with a V-cut neck.
"I'm Josh," he introduced himself, shaking her hand.
"Ben." He too shook her hand.
"I'm Nicole." She linked arms with each of them, on on either side. They led her to the table where all three sat down. Dinner went quickly, but they stayed long after, lost in conversation.
"I wanted to go into photography, but no one would give me a job without more than a high school education. I wanted out of Beulahville - which is a little town outside of Jacksonville, NC - so I applied to the agency. And here I am." She took a swallow of her drink.
"Well, I imagine you'll do pretty good here," Ben commented.
"Yeah ... but I do have to admit that this fancy stuff isn't me. How often does this happen?"
"Not too often now that rehearsals have started. We'll have real fun - mischievious late nights, you know," Josh said, winking at her.
She cleared her throat, blushing. "Did you boys have to learn to fly for the movie?"
Ben and Josh exchanged puzzled looks. Nicole shrugged.
"Mrs. Bradley filled me in on the plot," she explained.
"Well, we don't actually fly. It's all simulated," Ben explained. he looked at his watch. "C'mon Josh. We's better the the nice girl back to her room."
"Well, Nicole, I think this'll work out perfectly," Ben said. "See you tomorrow. Oh, and we take care of our friends. Call if you need anything."
"Yeah, and I'm available, if you, you know, need anything, I'm available too. Room 326, you can-" Josh was interuppted by Ben.
"He'll het over it," Ben joked. Nicole laughed.
"Thanks," Nicole said, but Ethel was already gone.
