Elizabeth:
Conner
and I were just about to head into Mega Records when some guy in a
suit stopped us.
"Hello, Roger Wilson, at your service."
He shook my hand.
Conner looked annoyed. "What do you
want?"
He ignored Conner. "I'm head of the swim suit
department in Hawaii and I'm looking for some hot new talent to model
are newest swimsuits. I believe you got the stuff." He eyed my
slim hips and flat stomach.
Conner tried to pull me away.
"Were busy." I shrugged him off. Modeling! How Cool!
"When
is it?" I asked politely.
The man smiled. "Right
now. You will also receive an amount of two hundred dollars.
"I'm
so in." I squealed. Conner and I followed Roger till we entered
'Suits. Not just For Swimming' we continued to walk all the way to
the back of the store till we reached a spot with cameramen and crew.
I spotted Melissa, Jessica, Jeremy and Will over by the
window.
"What are you guys doing here?" I asked
giddily.
Melissa rolled her eyes. "Originally, I was
going to star in the ad but they needed some more models. So I
suggested you."
"Thanks." I said,
surprised.
Melissa smirked. "What choice did I have? It
was either you monsters, or them beasts." She pointed towards a
group of girls trying out. None had the as they say 'stuff.' Suddenly
Melissa's act didn't seem so considerate. Roger handed us some
swimsuits and we hurried to change. I had gotten into an orange
two-piece with a shiny material. Jessica had on a powder blue bikini
with small patterns of fish and Melissa wore a bright green suit with
no straps and a striped skirt around the bottom. The director placed
us on a set with fake palm tress and light so bright it was almost
sunshine. The ground was littered with sand.
"Now."
Roger explained. "The point of this add is to show girls how
irresistible they look in our fashions. You are going to be paired up
with guys who are also modeling are fashions." I nodded in
agreement. I felt so nervous. The light made me feel naked. I waved
at Conner but he was to busy staring at something else. Oh well, he'd
see me later. I waved at him a second time only to notice that his
gaze was lingering on Melissa. Even though it was probably nothing I
still became filed with jealously. But it was soon forgotten as Roger
led the male models on set. Boy were they tasty.
Roger stopped
one of the boys. "Brian, where is Erik?" Brian shrugged. He
was the hotter of the two with sandy blond hair and blue eyes. I
hoped we were paired together.
"He said something bout a
popped tire." Brian answered. Roger ran a hand threw his hair
angrily.
"Dammit. This is just what I needed!" Roger
called over a cameraman. "We are short a male model!" he
yelled. A vein in his forehead was at bursting point.
"No
problem." I cut in. "Some guys came with us here I'm sure
one of them will model."
Roger relaxed. "Why Missy,
I believe it was a great idea to hire you."
"Thanks."
I murmured as I hurried off to capture one of the guys. I grabbed
Conner by the ear. "What do you think about male modeling?"
I asked.
Conner chuckled. "Its purely for
sissy's."
"I'll do it." Jeremy volunteered.
"Just make sure I'm paired with Jessica." I hesitated
before answering. Jessica would be so mad at me. She was
putting everything into avoiding Jeremy. "Okay." I finally
spoke up. Hey it WAS for the greater good.
Conner grabbed me from behind and whistled. "Baby, you should buy that swimsuit. You look so hot." I giggled and dragged Jeremy to a change room. He put on gray swimming trunks and I explained that he had to be paired with Jessica. She was not very happy. In fact the glare she shot me meant only one thing.
I was dead.
