It's been two days since I met MNKS, Kenric has been the best, Shane has been helping me with my music and Nathaniel has been nothing but a pain in the ass.
Pushing me around, arguing with me constantly, and criticizing my music. He barges into my house unannounced and hogs my couch. He even got along with fish-sticks. He made dishes and messed up my house. If he was staying here why the hell couldn't he clean and the fact that he just made it harder for me, pissed me off.
The one out of all of them that has been the most helpful with my career is Myles. He asked the director to give me an audition for the second lead male of the movie, Myles was in. He accepted because he was good friends with Myles, everyone was.
Kenric was the nice and beguiling one, Nathaniel was the rude and cranky one, Shane was the funny, charismatic one, but Myles was the friendly, innocent, social butterfly that everyone wanted to be around.
Out of all of them, Myles was also the second most attractive one. He had brown hair and blue-green eyes. He didn't have any beauty marks, but his face was so smooth it made him look so innocent.
The first most attractive one is Nathaniel, regrettably speaking but I would never say that to his face, his ego already ten times bigger than all the rest I wouldn't want him thinking any more of himself.
Then for attractiveness, it would be Kenric and then Shane. Shane seemed like someone who loved to be dark, he died his hair dark blue and he wore all black clothes. He was Latino and had a Spanish accent but he wasn't as charming or elegant as the others.
Thanks to Myles I was on set for a movie that has been on the buzz for two months. They haven't started shooting yet, because they needed to fill in some spots. I was glad, that meant I had a shot to start acting.
I read my character's script and the second main character is a big part. His name is Julius Young, an ambitious teenager who dreams to go pro. He can be cocky and he's always up for an adventure. He's the main character's best friend and always has his back. Mostly he's a jock who loves to party the same as Noah Campbell, the main character.
A bunch of people was auditioning for the role. The auditions were fast and my turn was coming up fast. The person in front of me took his turn and I read my lines one last time before the man came back and the director yelled next.
I walked onto the stage and all the nervousness I was feeling from everybody out there, went away. I suddenly became confident and waved at the judges. Myles was there to perform the breakdown scene.
"Julius, how could you!" Myles yells.
"Noah, It's not what you think, I swear."
"That's my girlfriend! Why the hell would you kiss her!"
"I didn't kiss her, she kissed me! I pushed back but she wouldn't let me go. Noah, we've been friends since the first grade, please you need to know I'd never do that to you!" I looked at him with a desperate face on. My acting skills surprised Myles and he had to look at the script. The director smiled.
"I know, I know." Myles falls on his knees.
"I knew for a while that she was only after you, everybody I'm with only dates me to get closer to you." He says with his head buried in his knees. I get down and hug Myles.
"I'm sorry Noah, I didn't know that's how you felt."
"That's not how I feel!" Myles pushes my arm away from him. He stands up and I quickly follow. I look at him helplessly, worried and sad. Myles gets caught off guard again and looks at his script.
"That's how it is! Julius, you're perfect! Good grades, handsome face, good future, the only thing I have in my life that's worth boasting about, is how I'm friends with you! I'm not doing that anymore! Leave me alone but do me a favor and tell Alisha we're over." I reach out my hand and grab Myles.
"No wait, Noah you're my best friend! I can't do this without you!" I cue on the waterworks. Tears start flowing out of my eyes and the director smiled.
"Well then, you should learn. Goodbye Julius." I grab my hair and my eyes turned red from crying. Then I walk away.
"Fine! Whatever then I'm better off without you anyway!" I yell crying. The scene was done. I wiped my tears and stopped crying. I was back to normal, the director was smiling, and Myles was impressed with my acting skills.
"That was perfect, Mavis, tell the rest of the people out there, too go home, we found our Julius." The director said happy and excited.
Myles wrapped his arm around my neck and congratulated me. I was proud of my talent on stage, and the director was ecstatic.
I discovered my talent in a 5th-grade play I was forced to participate In because it was evaluated. I was just a secondary character, but all the pains I felt as an Empath faded away and I could honestly say that's when I felt true emotions. Yes, I was acting the emotions, but I was feeling them too, but they're my own and no one else's. That's when I truly started to enjoy being me. Since then it was my dream to perform and to do that more often and to make a living that requires me to become famous, and so that's why I came to NYC.
Having a dream can fuel someone to do better. For me, it's fueling me to be human. Feel emotions and be normal but I know I'll never have that outside the stage.
So that's where I belong, and that's where I'm going to be.
