Jessica (2000 At The Park)

The Interview had gone well and Jess had found herself sat on a bench outside the hotel, which looked out on to a green park dotted with trees. It felt peaceful and calm.

She had felt herself thinking back to the morning, when she had met Dean white. she pulled out her phone and began doing a little research about the man. She had also gone to a cabin that sold drinks and had picked up any magazine/ newspaper that had a mention of Dean White.

Settled back on her bench she began reading the first magazine that had caught her eye..

on the front was a picture of a glamorous model, the title next to it was 'Dean White's Ex first interview after split' she thought, thankgod he's single, then shook her head as if to proclaim why on earth am I thinking that it's not as if I will ever see him again. She turned to the page that the article started on.

Lola De-Champes had been dating the most eligible bachelor in the USA, untill they're engagement was called off . She tells everything to Tamara Green in this expose that lays bare some truths about the most talked about celebrity couple this decade.

How do I not know any of this thought Jess, Its not like I have been living under a rock. she read on...

Lola had met Dean at a high profile party in one of the many white Hotels. She claims it was love at first sight but it took them another 6 month's before they began their torrid love affair. Lola looked pensive and regretful as she discussed the relationship, claiming that she was not in a good way with her mental health.

The article continued on in the same vain about how much she loved him, and how wonderful he was. That she was hurt by all of his playing around with women, that she was ready to forgive him and take him back. It gave Jess the absolute creeps but she couldn't quite explain why. However she did feel like she hated the woman in the glossy pictures with her perfectly styled hair and beautifully manicured nails, the legs that went on for miles and the slim body. Though quite why they needed a bikini shot in a breakup story she wasn't sure.

She picked up the paper next which had more positive articles about Dean White, and found herself learning about his charitable foundation he had started at 15. His love for his brother who was only 8, and how much he valued his step-mother. Then there was the Tabloid that showed the pictures that Fiona had shown her, with some leggy blonde attached to his face, and some pictures that looked like she was grinding against his groin.

She felt a surge of jealousy, that woman had got to touch him in places she had wanted to. She could feel her face turning shades of red for the second time that day she had felt incredibly turned on by a complete stranger. She was vaugely aware of someone sitting next to her. She shuffled towards the end of the bench to provide more distance between herself and the stranger but the stranger moved closer to her. She shuffled further towards the end of the bench, but this guy just kept getting closer. She was doing her best to ignore him when he grabbed the paper from her hands completely shocked her and she found herself falling to the ground.

'what the Hell, why did you do tha... she had begun shouting while unceremoniously flopped on the floor only to be stopped mid sentence by that brilliant smile, that had made her heart beat faster in the morning but right now it sank, she had been caught red handed reading about him. She bit her bottom lip and looked up at him.

'ah sorry I guess' she said

'what do you have to be sorry for?' he replied.

'Um reading about you I guess, I was just curious after Fiona explained who you where. I didn't know you where famous and an important person in the White group.' she felt her self getting anxious that perhaps mistaking this person for some random interviewee would cost her the chance to work at the hotel.

Her heart was racing and she couldn't explain why, was she having a panic attack? no she was sure that this wasn't one, was she scared, excited or totally confused. She suddenly felt sick to her stomach.

A hand reached down to help her off the ground. It was his hand, she took it and felt the same spark as before, he helped her to her feet, and picked up the dropped papers and magazines

'any questions ?' he asked

she felt totally perplexed, questions about what?

'about the papers' he prompted

she shook her head from side to side to indicate no. She felt far to guilty to speak. He tossed them in to bin a few feet from the bench and returned to where she was standing.

'Have you eaten yet?' Dean asked her, this time she managed to reply to him.

'No I am waiting for my friend Fiona, we are going to have lunch together at the italian in town, we get a discount because we work there.' she thought why did I say that. She was finding it difficult to look him in the eyes for too long, they really where emeralds.

Dean opened his mouth ' well what if I told you your friend sold you out for a spa voucher and a chance to Style me for her portfolio.' he rocked back on his heels, as he did she was able to take in his whole form, from his chiseled cheekbones, to his strong arms, his height. She felt the strong pull of attraction towards this thing of beauty.

'I am going to kill Fiona' Jess said out loud not meaning too. This lead to a soft chuckle from Deans lips, and the utmost look of horror on Jessica's face as she realised she had released her inside voice.

'I will dig the hole if you like.' he replied to her.

they both gazed at each other and burst out laughing. He held out his hand to her 'Come on a chance to date me, who would pass that up.'

To that cheesy line she replied 'apparently no one.' to which more laughter erupted. She took his hand and followed him towards the Hotel carpark.
