She went back and found them talking about her, she ignored them.Dave came back in their dressing room.
Dave….Girls, are we done?
Pricka….We good to go.
Dave….Good! Come out, I want to introduce you to our new photographer, the last one messed up and got fired.
They went to Dave's office, and there was a tall hot man with a medium length wolfcut hair style, big doe eyes dressed in old money style, unbuttoned shirt revealing his upper chest, hands in pocket with a calm innocent look in his face, they were all mesmerised by his beauty.
Pricka….Damn!
Elle….(Wow!)
Dave….I see what yall ladies are thinking about, I dont care anyways.This is Theo Ortega and his gonna be working with us for a few months, his not here as a full time photographer so I hope you guys dont give him a hard time.
Coco….Worrynot, we will give him a good time instead.
Dave….Hahahaha…
Theo….Nice to meet you guys, I hope we work well together.
Elle was staring at him the whole time silently saying nothing as her eyes were also red from crying.Later, they started working and were taking new photos for the agency, one by one and Theo took the pictures of them.
Theo….Can you give me a different pose?
Elle….Ok..okay…
Dave….Elle, whats wrong boo? Lets not mess up now please.
Elle….Got it.
After the photo shoots, the rest of the girls left as they had other work to do outside the agency, but Elle didnt have any that day.In the evening, as she was outside the building waiting for her cab to go home, at brand new car parked infront of her, Axel came out of it.
Axel….Fancy a ride my lady?
Elle….No way! Is this yours Axel?
Axel….Its mine, suprise!
Elle….WOW! This is insane Axel, its a cool ride, damn! Am so happy for you.
Axel….Get in, i wanted us to eat dinner together today.
Elle….Aw!
He drove to a restaurant and they ordered for food.
Axel….Am sorry, its been awhile now since I've been handling alot of cases lately, I missed you.
Elle….I missed you too Axel, but am really proud of you, mum keeps calling me to tell me how proud she is of you, her dear lawyer Axel Young.
Axel….She calls me too and tells me thats shes proud of you too, love her bad.
Elle….Me too.
Axel….So, how's work?
Elle….Nothing new, all is fair.
Axel….You know my friends at work keep asking me for your number, your a celebrity and it makes me happy.
Elle….But am not a celebrity.
Axel….You have to believe it as it is, not everyone keeps popping up on magazine covers or seen in many ads like you.
Elle….Stop it, here comes our food.
They got served their food, but right then, Theo entered the restaurant too and his eyes landed on Elle, he went to say hi and saw Axel too.
Theo….Axel Young?
Elle….Huh? Theo?
Axel….No fucking way! Theo Ortega?
Theo….Thats right! Its a pleasure to meet you sir.
Elle….Do you guys know eachother?
Axel….Not really.
Theo….Can I join you guys?
Axel….Ofcourse.
He sat on their table and ordered his food.
Elle….Okay, i wanna know how you guys know eachother.
Axel….He was once the university's face before us and we met at an event we were invited to by the dean.Remember when you wore that red dress?
Elle….Oh, I remember that event, but I didnt see you.
Theo….My bad, I didnt get to introduce myself since you were with someone.
Elle….Roman? Oh, I went with him? Sorry, I have bad memory.So when you came at the agency you knew me already?
Theo….I did but since we've never talked before, I didnt know what to say, didnt want to sound like a crazy fan.
Axel…But Elle is simple, shes not rude.Sounds like you guys are gonna work together.Lucky you Elle, this is best photographer ever.
Theo….I appreciate, thanks.And you yourself, I keep seeing you on the news winning cases, am sure the dean is proud of you.
Axel….You too, his a great man.
They kept talking about university but Elle didnt say much since she didnt know him.After eating, Theo left first as he had other things to do.Axel drove Elle to her home.
Elle….Wanna come in? We can play some games.
Axel….I wish but I have a new case to revise so am sorry, maybe next time.
Elle….I understand, thanks for dinner and next time lets visit mum and her man, they will be happy to see us.
Axel….Deal!
They hugged and Axel left.Elle got in the elevator to go up to her penthouse, she arrived and found a boy standing infront of her door with a box of cookies.
Elle….Excuse me, are you looking for me?
Ruben….Is this your home?
Elle….Um, yeah, why?
Ruben….Oh, am Ruben, we live in the east penthouse and we just moved in so I came to greet you our neighbor.
Elle….Oh, thats so sweet of you Ruben, am Elle Young.
Ruben….Hold on, your Elle Young? Oh my goodness! Your…that famous model? Am a huge fan and I even follow you on Instagram and tiktok.
Elle….Th…thanks, I appreciate.
Ruben….Can I have a selfie?
Elle…Why not?
They took a selfie together.
Ruben….So, is there anything I can help you with? Like cleaning?
Elle….Hahaha, just go home, your parents will worry.
Ruben….Am seventeen, also, I live with my brother and his barely home.
Elle….Okay, later Ruben.
As she was opening her door, she turned to Ruben.
Elle….Hey, wanna play some games, am bored.
Ruben….Yes, any game.
Elle….Come inside.
She invited him inside and they played video games for over an hour.
Ruben….How are you good at these?
Elle….I have a brother and we played these for years.
Ruben….Good for you!
Elle….Its night already, let me bring some juice.
Ruben….Thanks.
They sat in the couch sipping the juice.
Elle….Your creeping me out when you stare at me like that.
Ruben….Am sorry, I just can't believe that am here with you.I knew that you were nice person in person.
Elle….Thanks Ruben.
Ruben….Can I come tomorrow too and we play?
Elle….I will be busy tomorrow but when am not busy, I will come and knock.
Ruben….Okay! My friends are not gonna believe me that i met Elle Young and that shes my neighbor.
Elle….Enough with that, go home.
Ruben….Okay, good night Mrs Elle.
Elle….Just call me Elle.
Ruben….Okay.
Ruben went back and he was happy, he was a fan of Elle and even had her magazines in his room.The next day, Elle went to work.
Dave….Elle, your going to be busy today, infact for the whole week.Your going to go with Coco and Theo.
Elle….Got it.
Theo….I will drive you, I brought my car.Lets go guys.
He opened the front door for Elle and Coco sat in the back.
Theo….So, did you sleep well?
Elle….Me…or her?
Theo….You.
Elle….I slept well, thanks.
Theo….Good! It was nice to meet Axel again, his a chill guy.
Elle….He sure is, but how old are you if you left university when we were in collage?
Theo….Calling me old, huh?
Elle….No, just curiosity.
Theo….Hahaha, its fine.Am twenty seven, your twenty four, right?
Coco….Aheem! What about me? Why is no one asking me anything?
Theo….Anything you wanna tell us?
Coco….Nothing.
They arrived where the photo shoots was to take place, but Theo kept stealing glances at Elle.They worked for hours and rested after, Theo brought water for both of them and left.
Coco….Whats up with the photographer?
Elle….Nothing, why are you even talking to me? Don't you guys hate me?
Coco….Its really dumb, isn't it?
Elle….You tell me.
Coco….Elle, i wanted to say this for awhile, am sorry for being a bitch towards you.We are just jealous of you and you did nothing to us.I now know why you dont say much after hearing what Pricka said about your bestie.
Elle….We good, its not like I cared to begin with.
Coco….Wanna be friends? I like you, your hot, your confident and you just do your thing.
Elle….Nah, I dont want friends.
Coco….I dont steal boyfriends like Pricka, I have mine already.
Theo….Sorry to interrupt girls but we have work to do, lets resume it.
They worked until it was dark, Coco's boyfriend picked her up and Theo left with Elle, he took her to a restaurant.
Theo….Since we didnt eat much, thought it should be right for me to treat you to dinner.
Elle….I see, but I will pay.
Theo….Thats embarrassing for a man to let the woman pay.
Elle….Well then, have it your way.
They ordered for food and got served then started eating quietly while stealing glances at each other.
Theo….This is awkward.
Elle….I know, lets just eat.
After, Theo paid for the meal and got Elle a cab.
Theo….Am sorry that I couldn't drive you home, something urgent came up.
Elle….Its all good, thanks for the meal.
Theo….See you tomorrow at work.
Elle….Okay.
She went home and showered then slept right away since she had a long day.As for Theo, he drove to a house which was isolated away from the city, he went inside and someone was waiting for him.
Lizzie….Took you forever, I got bored waiting.
Theo….Oh really?
He took off his shirt and his belt, Lizzie ran to him and they kissed.They hooked up and after laid down in bed.
Lizzie….So, how is work?
Theo….Its good.
Lizzie….Am releasing my album tomorrow and i want you to be here every night I come from work tired.
Theo….I also have a life to live, but we will see.Congrats in advance.
Lizzie….Thanks honey, so, is there anyone there prettier than me? Be honest, you can't be surrounded by those models and dont get tempted.
Theo….Your really asking that?
Lizzie….Iam.
Theo….Well, there is someone but nothing has happened.
Lizzie….Are you blushing?
Theo….No, i didnt blush so dont start teasing me.
Lizzie….Alright, but you have to let me know if you feel any sparks.I wanna see that look in your gorgeous eyes when they are in love.
Theo….Stop it already.
Theo was hooking up with Lizzie occasionally but he had no feelings for her, it was a friends with benefit thing.Lizzie is a global pop star whose carrier skyrocketed after releasing her first album.She gained popularity, won awards and since then, shes among the top 100 singers in the nation, everyone knows her name, mostly her songs.
But she has been with Theo for five years and she caught feelings for him, he didnt know she fell for him and he he lives a private life, which is why they meet secretly and only his bestfriend knows about them, Shane.
