Chapter Two: Jessica

Chapter song:

"Nothing? NOTHING? Isabella Marie Swan. You're telling me that for the past EIGHT FREAKING YEARS, you've had-" Her voice dropped to a hushed tone, "-these dreams and now, after already selling two books, they've just suddenly stopped? How the hell are we suppose to work with that? You have two more book signings next month, an interview on Good Morning America in a week, you have another interview with Gianna Star tomorrow and on Monday you're suppose to guest star on The Daily Show with Jane Volturi! To talk about your NEXT BOOK!"

Jessica. Fucking. Stanley.

The girl was not only the bitchest chick I had ever met, ya know the kind that whines as she's swipping Daddys credit card to buy the most expensive thing in the store, but she was also stubborn, rude and pushy.

Ah.

And, the best in the business.

She was my manager slash editor. Kinda. She was more of the I'm gunna stay glues to your ass till you start the next chapter, kind of crazy employee. She was taller than me by a good 6 inches-not that that was saying much-and had impossibly straight blonde hair. With high cheek bones and an even higher number on her paycheck, she would never settle for less than the best.

And somehow I had managled to snag her up. Although right now, I really wish I hadn't.

She knew all about my dreams and how they've just suddenly stopped and it was pissing HER the hell off.

I was the one left alone at nights for the first time in almost 9 years!

"You know how she can be!" She went on as I sighed and pressed my phone between my shoulder and ear as I stirred the sauce for my dinner.

"She will RUIN you. If people find out you haven't even start on the next book, your ratings will go down! You must have NO idea how hard it is to make New Yorks Best Seller! All of that- down the fucking drain. And all because you stopped DREAMING. God damn it Bella! What the hell are we suppose to do now?"

For the next two hours, I sat at my table, alone, eating and listening to Jessica bitch at me.

Cause that's the way I love to spend my Thursday evenings.
