2. Chapter 2

A/N: Thanks for the reviews! Once again, I do not own these characters!

'How can you NOT?' Claudia exclaimed. We were sitting outside the Washington Mall, waiting for a bus. We had half an hour before the BSC meeting would start, and it looked like we were going to be late. Claudia and Stacey were still on about the modeling thing, although it'd been an hour.

'I don't want to go around modeling fur; that's animal cruelty!' I exclaimed. 'Now can we please drop it?' The bus, luckily, pulled up then and we climbed aboard.

'Fine,' Stacey said. 'But that's going to be our excuse for being late.'

'Sorry we're late, but we were at the mall and Dawn got offered a modeling job,' Claudia said, once we'd arrived in her bedroom.

'Ten minutes, guys! And just for shopping?' Kristy shook her head.

'Uh, Kristy? Dawn got offered MODELING!' Stacey said, emphasizing "modeling".

'TEN minutes! I don't care if she won the lottery! TEN minutes!' Kristy just couldn't let it go.

'Modeling? That's great, Dawn!' Mary Anne said, jumping up and giving me a hug. I took my place in Claudia's desk chair, and replied,

'I'm not going to do it.'

'WHAT?' Mal cried. 'That job is, like, every girls dream!'

I shrugged. 'Not for me.'

'Oh, come on Dawn, you're being irrational. Think of the money!' Kristy finally acknowledged what was going on.

'I might have to quit the BSC!' I shot back.

Everyone went silent.

'No, you won't be a big time model in the blink of an eye; I'd say you'd have at least another year with the BSC,' Stacey said.

'Well, I'm not doing it. I want to be an environmentalist, not have a job that requires no brains!' It was really starting to annoy me now.

'But Dawn, you could donate the money you earn to environmental charities, or organize protests or whatever,' Jessi said practically. That really hit home. Modeling couldn't be bad if I was doing it to help people, could it?

'I hadn't thought of that,' I said slowly.

'Come on, Dawn! You've got nothing to lose!' Stacey said.

'Ok. I'll ask Mum and Richard, but I doubt they'll let me,' I replied. I was getting kind of excited now.

'Don't worry, I'll help you convince them!' Mary Anne promised.

I was really excited. Me, Dawn Schafer, famous model? I prayed silently that Mum and Richard would say yes.
