I make my way to his office I'm scared shitless.

He is already sitting down at his desk, with his arms crossed over his chest. Looking intimidating as hell.

I take a seat in front of his desk, we sit in silence for what seems like an eternity. Suddenly a loose string on my pants becomes the most interesting thing in the world to me.

Anything to avoid eye contact.

The silence is broken when he clears his throat. But that's the only thing he does, then it's back to silence.

He reaches into his top desk drawer and pulls out a folder.

I finally work up the courage to speak, "Am I in trouble, did I do something wrong?" I ask even though I know I did nothing wrong.

I'm scared for his response.

"No, I called you in here because I have a big job opportunity for you." He says as he puts on his glasses to read the contents of the folder.

Did I just hear what I think I did.

"We have a very important client, they are really popular in the music industry right now."

He looks up from the folder, making sure I'm listening.

"They need a photographer to go on tour with them."

Does he mean me!

"And you chose me?" I ask.

"Yes, you are the most talented photographer that's every stepped foot into my company." He says.

He did mean me!

"May I ask who the client is?" I can't contain my curiosity.

OMG! MAYBE ITS PAUL MCCARTNEY!

Hey one can dream.

"You'll know when you meet their manager to work out the details." He says.

Before I can stop and think I'm on my feet rushing over to him. I pull him into the biggest hug.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" I squeal.

I pull away and sit back down.

He looks confused and embarrassed about the hug.

"I'm so sorry, I'm just so excited."

I say, I can feel heat rising up to my cheeks.

"It's alright. I know you'll do excellent." He says turning his attention to his computer.

"Thank you again! I won't let you down." I say.

My heart is pounding.

I just sit there staring at him stuck in my thoughts.

"Okay, that's all, can go back to work." He says without taking his eyes off his computer screen.

I get up and walk out of his office and back to my desk. I don't even look at the new girl when I sit.

I can't believe this! This is my chance to get my name out there.

I sit there still in shock for about 5 minutes. And in that time I learn that the new girls name is Rachael, I heard someone call her from across the office.

I could feel someone's eyes on me, I look up to see Rachael looking at me with a questioning look.

"So how much trouble did you get into?" She finally asks.

"I didn't get in trouble. He just wanted to tell me about a huge job opportunity." I can't help but smile when I tell her.

"That's really good news!" She says beaming, I can tell she's genuinely happy for me.

"Yes it is Rachael." My face hurts from smiling so much, but I don't care.

As soon as I reach my car I get a text from Daisy

"I have to stay a little late. Don't wait up, I'll catch a ride with my sister"

Her sister? When did her sister come here. I'm going to have to ask her when she gets home.

The car ride is boring without Daisy, so I just blast my music and sing like no one is watching.

"STORY OF MY LIFE! I TAKE HER HOME, I DRIVE ALL NIGHT TO KEEP HER WARM AND TIME IS FROOOOOOOZEN!"

By the time I pull into the parking lot of my apartment complex my voice hurts.

Since I have time to kill I clean up a little. I start to make some Mac-n-cheese.

It's our favorite.

I'm in the middle of putting the dishes away when I hear the door creak open.

"Hey! Did you miss your singing buddy?"

Daisy says as she sets her bags down on the counter.

"Yes. So what's the deal with your sister being here?" I ask right away.

"Well...." She begins while looking at her feet.

"STORY TIME!!!" I say as I throw my body onto the couch and sit Indian style. I'm pretty sure I look like a 5 year old.

She walks over to the couch and sits next to me.

"Okay, well as soon as I got to my office my boss said he scheduled for me to go to the art building to help them." She says vaguely.

"And that means?" I can't take the suspense.

"They were using models to paint, so I did the models hair and makeup." She says with a shrug.

"That's amazing!" I tell her.

"Yea, until I find out my sister is in the art program."

"Ooooh no bueno" I tell her with my slim to nothing Spanish speaking skills.

"And of course my sister was all over the male model." She says as she rolls her eyes.

"Was he cute?" I can't help but ask.

"Oh yes he was. If you looked up the word model his picture would be there."

She sighs.

"and his body! Natalie you had to be there, it brought tears to my eyes it was so beautiful." She wipes a fake tear from her eye.

Dear lord what a drama queen.

"Omg I should like totally ask him to pose nude for my pictures." I say in a high pitch mocking fangirl voice.

"Shut up! You're so gross!" She take a pillow from the couch an throws it at me.

"Ow!" I say rubbing my head, "that hurt"

"That was the point" she tells me walking to the kitchen to eat.

I get up and start serving myself, we eat while we watch The Vampire Diaries.

Once we are done, Daisy offers to clean up the kitchen while I shower. I walk into the room to find Daisy sleeping in her bed.

I shut the light off and lay down. I fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.

My last thought before I'm completely asleep is that by the end of the week I'll know who I'm working for.
