"Waaalaaa", Arielle does the happy dance as he grabs a mirror handing it to me.

"What would I do without you?", I smile loving my makeup.

"Aleysa come into my office", my dad barges through the door then steps out.

"Good luck doll", Arielle whispers packing his makeup brushes into his case.

"Yes dad?"

"Your office is fixed, but next time you pull some shit like this you'll fix it yourself you hear me?", he says with a stern expression.

"Is that all?", I huff.

"Aleysa I hate fighting with you, but I made the decision to propose to Alessandra and it would make me happy if you jumped on board with this", he sighs.

As much as I hate the cruel reality. There's nothing I could do about it. No matter what I  do love my father.

"Fine congrats", I blankly say.

"Thanks.. now go do your shoot"

I nod leaving out of his office. It's already 2 in the afternoon and I haven't seen Jason anywhere.

I wonder where he is

"Let's start gorgeous", Lugini squeals.

I absolutely love Lugini he's I mean she's so kind, flirty, funny, and full of energy. However she can also be very judgmental, high maintenance, and a bit of a diva.

After numerous shoots we're finally done.
"I've missed you!", I hug Lugini.

"So have I darling like so much", Lugini batts her fake lashes.

"How was Italy?"

"girrrrrl there was so many sexy gorillas like oh my I couldn't help myself.. I had a little to much fun if you know what I mean", Lugini giggles.

"Naughty girl!", I tease playfully slapping her arm.

"Are you still having your 17th birthday party?"

"Yup"

"I hope to see that fine ass model Jason McCann", Lugini licks her lips.

"He's 17", I chuckle.

"Oh man no fun!", Lugini stomps like a little child who didn't get the toy they wanted.

My phone starts to ring and I answer the phone seeing it's Jacky.

Me
Hello

Jacky
Where are you?!

Me
At work where your suppose to be.. where are you?

Jacky
It doesn't matter.. Jason got arrested!

Me
W-WHAT!

I instantly feel my breathing irregular and the room suddenly gets really hot making me sweat. I glance at Lugini who's intently looking at me with a confused look.

Jacky
Wait outside I'm on my way to pick you up

Before I can say anything she hangs up. I'm so confused right now. What the did Jason do to get arrested? All I know is I have to somehow excuse myself from Lugini.

"Well I have to go to a meeting", I awkwardly say.

"No problem dolly.. I have to get going too", Lugini smiles.

"Tootles", I wave turning my heel exiting the studio.

I run out of the building now outside looking for Jacky.

Beep Beep

I hear a car honk grabbing my attention. My eyes land on Jacky's truck. Running towards the truck I open the door.

"What the heck happened?!"

"Ace and him got caught up selling weed", Jacky responds focused on the road.

"These two are morons!", Isaac chirps in from behind me causing me to jump.

"What are you doing back there?", I furrow my brows.

"Uhm", Jacky mumbles.

"Is he why your not at work?", I cross my arms over my chest.

"We were hanging out okay until Isaac got a call from Jason from Juvie", she nervously explains her cheeks a pinkish color.

"Your dad is going to be so pissed once he finds out about your absence today", I mutter shaking my head.

"Jason sells weed?", I raise a brow at Isaac.

Isaac looks nervous, "yeah, we all do".

"Excuse me?", Jacky chirps giving Isaac a death glare into the rear mirror.

"Yeah I was meaning to tell you that", Isaac awkwardly chuckles.

"Focus on the road Jacky!", I hiss seeing her serve a bit.

"Are you guys drug dealers?!", I ask trembling fearing his response.

"No! We just sell weed", he scoffs.

"That is drugs", I roll my eyes.

"No it isn't Aleysa!", he grumbles getting annoyed.

"It's illegal", I sternly retort.

"Can I see Jason McCann please?", I say politely in hopes that the angry looking man sitting in the front desk is nice.

"Nope", he says popping the "p".

"Why not?", Jacky grumbles.

"This lady right here", he says pointing at me "she's only 15". "I'm 16", I scoff. "Exactly your still a minor", he scolds.

"I'm 18", Jacky chirps again.

"You aren't a guardian of Mr. McCann", he rolls his eyes.

"Still being a fat pig I see", Isaac smirks barging through the doors.

"You better watch it Hunter!", the police officer narrows his eyes at Isaac.

Jacky and I both look at each other seeing how these two seem to know each other so well and apparently for a while.

The doors bursts open and we all snap our heads towards the direction to see who it is.

"Mom?", I mumble our eyes locking with each other.

"What are you two young ladies doing here?", she furrows her brows at us.

"I came for Jason", I nervously respond.

"Isaac?", she looks over my shoulder.

"Uh hi it's been a while since I've seen you", he awkwardly says scratching the back of his head.

"How do you two know each other?", Jacky raises a brow.

"For real", I add glancing at my mom and Isaac.

"I'm Angela Rose.. Jason McCann's case manager", she steers the subject avoiding my glare.

"Go right in", the police officer says scanning her ID card.

"You guys stay settled and behave", she warns as she enters the room.

One hour later

I'm sitting on a chair constantly shifting trying to soothe my ass from how numb it is from sitting here for so long.

Jacky is sitting across from me sitting three chairs away from Isaac with a pissed off expression. Isaac looks down on his phone ignoring Jacky's deadly glares she throws every 2 minutes.

We hear footsteps and a door busting open causing all of us to quickly stand up.

My mom and Jason finally step out getting scanned from head to toe. Jason glances at us furrowing his brows then makes eye contact with me.

I feel my heart skip a beat as he intently looks at me. He then rolls his eyes looking away. I furrow my brows at his sudden reaction.

"How did you girls get here?", my mom asks.

"I brought us here", Jacky replies.

"Drive home safely.. i'll be taking Aleysa with me", my mom firmly says.

I hug Jacky and Isaac saying bye heading towards my mom's car.

Jason hasn't said a word to me nor even acknowledged me.

Jacky and Isaac leave together driving off most likely Jacky is going off on him knowing her.

I sit on shot gun as Jason sits in the back quiet. The whole ride to Jason's place was awkwardly silent.

"Stay out of trouble.. you and me will have a nice chat in my office tomorrow be on time!", my mom firmly says as we stop in front of Jason's condo.

Jason nods stepping out of the car shutting the door not saying a word. I watch him as he unlocks his door stepping inside.

I feel anger quickly rise inside of me by his weird behavior today.

Once we arrive to my mom's house I tell my mom I'm tired heading to my room.

I quickly send a text to Jason demanding answers.

Text message sent to Jason

What the heck is up with you today?! You get arrested for selling weed then act like a complete asshole giving me the silent treatment! I rushed out of work without saying a word to anyone to go get your ass and this is what I get!

It's been literally 20 minutes since I sent the text message and still no response from him.

Text message sent to Jason

Hello!

I'm about to head to the restroom when I hear my phone ring notifying me I've just received a text message.

Text message from Jason

This "thing" we have going on is over

My heart falls to my stomach feeling nauseous. I don't understand any of this.

Text message sent to Jason

What the fuck! What's wrong?

Text message from Jason

I don't want anything to do with you anymore. This little crush I had was just momentarily. My bad Aleysa, but I'm just not looking for a relationship. Let's keep it work professional only. Bye

I start to tremble from how hard I'm trying not to cry. There he goes again playing with my feelings. I should of known this "thing" wasn't serious nor would it even lead to anything.

I'm such an idiot

Why do I keep letting Jason play with me like this? First of all why am I acting so desperate for him? This is not who I am, but ever since meeting Jason that's how I've been acting.

A tear slides down my cheek and I quickly wipe it away with the back of my hand.

I'm so over Jason doing this to me and I'm there like a dumbass letting it happen. No more being nice.

It's time to act like his boss that I am.

Jason McCann meet Aleysa Grey
