One Of The Hemmings

Chapter 22: Modeling?

Skyler Aviana Hemmings

"Your fans are friendly." I told Michael, going through the photos the fans and i took.

"Very friendly." He chuckled

I turned my head to face him, my dyed hair cascading over my back and shoulders.

"Where are we going anyway?"

"To a record label building thing." He grinned

"Why?" I said not understanding anything thats happening in this weird world

"You're in a band right?" He said while wiggling his eyebrows at me

I thought for a minute before gasping and jumping slightly.

"Fuck no." I said still not sure what i'm thinking

He nodded his head.

"You fucking serious?" I shrieked

"What do you not get about 'your band is getting signed into a record label'?" He told me, rolling his eyes

I let out a scream.

"Whoa. Everything alright there?" Dave chuckled

"All good, Dave. All good." Michael chuckled as well

After around 20 minutes we arrived in front of a tall building.

"Bye Dave. Go home for a while, we'll call you when we need a ride." Michael told Dave while hopping out the vehicle

"Sure. Good luck little Hemmings." Dave smiled at us

Michael and i entered the building, i shivered once i felt the air conditioned atmosphere.

"Cold?" He asked me

"Kinda." I mumbled, looking around my surroundings

"Lets go and meet Eric." Michael grabbed my hands

"How can your hands be warm? Isn't it like 2 degrees in here?" I joked

"You need a bit of fat to keep yourself warm." He winked

We stopped by a door with the name 'ERIC McADAMS' embellished on the wooden door.

Michael knocked on the door softly and we heard a muffled 'Come in.' from the other side

He opened the door and told me to go ahead inside.

The man sitting behind the desk looked up and smiled at us.

"Oh hello Michael. Who is this young lady?" He asked

"Hey Eric. So this is the girl i told you about a day ago. She has a band." Michael spoke up

"Oh! Hello...Skyler..?" Eric stood up

I nodded my head.

"I'm Eric McAdams and i am the one who looks into talented young ones who has the potential in becoming a celebrity." He said

"I'm Skyler Aviana Hemmings."

"Please, both of you, take a seat." He offered

Michael and i sat on the couches.

"Okay, Sklyer please tell me something about yourself and your band." Eric interrogated

"I play the drums in our band but sometimes i switch instruments and play the guitar. I'm a YouTuber as well." I said nonchalantly

"Mhm. How tall are you?" He asked

"Around 5'4" or something."

He continued asking other stuff until about 15 minutes has passed.

"Thank you. I will sign your band immediately and you will be working with Hi Or Hey Records." He smiled at me

"Thank you!" I breathed out

"No problem. Now Michael escort yourself and this young lady out, i have a meeting." Eric said

Michael rolled his eyes and went out with me.

We were about to exit but Michael stopped us.

"Lets get Starbucks!"

"Definitely in!" I laughed

Michael, once again, pulled me further into the building towards the Starbucks café.

"What will you get?" He asked me

"Cotton candy frappe." I said quickly

He nodded his head and turned towards the cashier.

I heard a snap of a camera and looked around.

I shrugged it off once Michael thrusted my drink into my hands.
(that sounded dirty. sorry)

"Lets walk around the building for a bit, yeah?" Michael asked

"Lead the way." I smiled

He then grasped my hand in his and pulled me towards wherever.

After a while i felt a tap on my shoulder. I swivelled around to see a man and a slightly older woman with him.

"Hey..?" I said confused

"Hello. I'm Stacy and this is my assistant, James." The woman said

"Hi." Michael and i said

"Well we were wondering if you would be open to the idea of modelling?" The lady asked me

"What?" I widened my eyes

"Let me clarify. If you didn't know Victoria's Secret will be having another runway show and the head of the project wanted a new, young model. The both of us were chosen to find one and we found your YouTube account." James rambled

"And?" I asked

"Well we thought you'd be perfect as a VS Angel." Stacy finished

"Why me? I do not even pass the height thing models need. And i have no experience." I argued

"We heard this band of yours is getting signed and walking on a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show will help your band's popularity." She replied

I looked back at Michael.

"Can we talk for a moment? Thanks." He said quickly pulling me aside

"Should i accept their offer or what?" I whispered, panicking

"Its up to you. You totally can. I mean like...i get to see in some sexy lingerie." He winked

I slapped his chest and laughed. My laughter soon faded when i realised a lot of people will be criticizing me when i accept their offer.

"But i'm just some weird teenager who dyes her hair strange colours." I mumbled

"You can do it!" He encouraged

I took a deep breath and looked back at James and Stacy.

"I'll do it." I said breathlessly

"Thank you so much. We'll contact you to meet with the head and when we found you a manager for yourself." Stacy smiled at me thankfully

"No problem." I shook their hands

I felt Michael tap my shoulder to get my attention.

"I just got off the phone with Luke and he said to come home. Cause we need to get ready for the concert and have soundcheck in a few." He said in a rush

We said our goodbye's to James and Stacy then left to be picked up by Dave.
