"So is this like, a big time movie?" Cesar asked as he hooked up my new lamp.
"I mean, I guess. It's not gonna be in every theater, which sucks. But it will be in a few theaters. I don't even know what it's about, it's a blind audition. I don't know who I am trying out for or what the movie about until I get there." I explained. "Which is pretty nerve wracking."
"You'll do fine." He smiled. "Alright, I have to go to work, call you later?"
Cesar recently got a summer job as a waiter at Olive Garden.
"Bye." He came behind me and kissed my cheek. It all still seemed so surreal, like I was still in some fairytale romance. But it wasn't a story, it was real.

I rolled off my bed and threw on a nicer outfit, other than the sweats and t-shirt I was in all day. I didn't care to dress up around Cesar, even though we'd been dating for all of four days. For some reason, I felt comfortable around him, whether I was dressed up or looked like a slob. I pulled on a pair of black skinny jeans and a long, pink tank top. I slipped my newly pedicured feet into a cheap pair of flip flops before walking into the apartment lobby and into the parking lot. My car growled as I turned the engine on.
Shoot. The last thing I need is a broken car.
