The struggles of the limelight (for verdict)

The girl changed her tune mighty quick after getting smacked across the cheek. Serean almost smiled as she suddenly stoped looking at her and became very meek in her attitude. Though her smile was lost when it became clear that the girl really  didn't know who she was, shed have to work on that,  it was almost a crime her name wasn't as well known here as it was back home.

"Now thats more like it. My name is Serena Bennet. I dont care how you remember it just make sure you do. Menial labor huh? What are you an intern? And yes ill forgive your rude attitude if you can get some actual good pictures of me, that would he a great start to getting my name more recognition." Serena said letting go of her and letting her off the ground.

Waiting with bated breath, Hailey prayed her lie would work against Serena. And to her surprise it did because seconds later she would feel Serena’s weight off her chest and give her the opportunity to get back on her feet.

Relieved of being on her feet again Hailey would inhaled deeply before picking up her camera. Though as did she would quickly formulate a plan to get out of here. She couldn’t just run, it was almost guaranteed that Serena would catch and terrorize her further. She had no other choice but to play along until the moment was right for such actions. And with that in mind Hailey would turn to address Serena with the camera at the ready. “A-A-Alright Miss. Bannet if you would press yourself against that wall over there and strike a pose. We can begin.” Hailey said as she pointed away from the wall she had originally planned to photograph. Still fearing that Serena had yet fully calmed downed.

Serena could tell that Hailey was shaken up, which she shoukd be with how close she was to tearing her head off for her behavior to her. As she went to her camera Serena huffed as she mispronounced her last name but assumed it was mostly nerves for now and decided she could drop it in favor of getting up towards the wall.

"Ill want to see all of these afterwards. Need to make sure there up to par with what my usual work is. Cant have people think my quality is dropping." Serena said as she put her hands behind her back and tilted to the side as she gave off on of her best smiles to the camera.

It was almost down right disturbing how quickly Serena could form a “cute” smile for Hailey. Hell if they had meet just now Hailey would have actually bought it and pegged her as a pleasant person to hang out with. Click! Her camera rang and just like that the moment would disappear. “That’s it, Now you’re thinking of that hot date you have tonight and you can’t stop thinking how romantic it's going to be.” Hailey directed as she took a step forward.

Serena was very good at making sure whatever issue were happening around her never showed up on her face when she was being professional. No one cared about the inner fetures of a person when they were on the stage, and she had learned to make her outer figure very appealing to the eye. Hailey seemmpressed as well given how quickly she seemed to be adjusting to this.

"Now your starting to sound professional. Keep this up and I may actually pay you to take photos of me." she said adjusting to her new poses as she tried to envision the last romantic date. The almost childlike happiness on her face reflecting what she remembered.

Like a nature Serena continued to follow Hailey’s lead. Easily giving her a innocent look that could melt the heart of any man but despite Serena’s line of thinking Hailey actually hated it. In fact she was clenching her teeth when she took the photo. Serena didn’t deserve any of that talent nor any of Hailey’s time. Inner beauty did matter a photo wasn’t simply an image like Serena was thinking it was an expression in time and to have something so important corrupted, it truly showed how hideous that thing was.

Nonetheless, Click! In a blinding flash the moment was yet again engraved into memory. “...Thank you.” Hailey answered after being suddenly interrupted by Serena in her train of thought. “Umm… Returning home with your date. You decide to entice him into bed and give him the most seductive pose he had ever seen that he can’t resist.” Hailey quickly continued in an attempt to get things back on track as she took another step forward.

Whatever thoughts were plaguing Hailey's mind were of no concern to Serena as long as they stil had good pcitures to work with. The photographer owed her that much for her actions from earlier. As she took into account her next words she thought for a second before getting to work.

Moving her hands to her hips and rubbing her side as her eyes turn seductive. The suggestive smile on her face suggests more as she tries to look as enticing as possible while the girl takes her picture.

At this point it wasn’t all that surprising for Serena to nail her pose again.Hailey had seen enough to know that Serena was naturally photogenic. It pissed her off to no end but she couldn’t deny it but maybe if her plan succeeded ruining her looks could be an added bonus to her escape.Either way it was now or never Hailey had to make her move or risk her health staying with Serena for a bit longer.

Click! Hailey’s camera flashed for the last time as she readied herself for what she had to do. “Hours later still enjoying each others company, your date can’t help but tease you. Fueled by your embarrassment you grow rather mischievous and plan to prank him.” Hailey instructed as she readied her camera. However, instead of taking a photo of Serena like before Hailey would attempt to smash her camera against Serena's head. In a desperate attempt to knock her out and make a break for it.

Serena was getting into the whole thing now. Her own love of a camera and showing herself off getting the best of her and making Serena forget about her initial anger. As she made her smile mischievous and waited for the flash she was knocked upside the head by the camera!

"Oww! You little.." she said as she brought her hands to her head as her vision was dazed. Her eyes opened and looked at Hailey as she ran off. Her eyes lit up in anger as she screamed out and charged after her, nearly tripping over her self at first before bursting ina full on sprint.

With her heart racing and lungs burning Hailey ran like she never ran before. After hearing Serena scream after her. She definitely didn’t want to get caught and was now scrambling to get way. “Come on... Come on…” Hailey would silently encourage herself as she tried to find somewhere to hide or at the very least find a more public area than these hallways.

Unfortunately Hailey was running out of time having sprinted for several minutes now she could feel her energy dwindling. She had to make a decisions now or suffer Serena’s wrath and with no other options she would burst through the nearest set of doors. Only to realize afterwards that the room she had just entered was the Women’s Locker Room meaning that the only way out was now was through Serena. “...No...Fuck!” Hailey cursed loudly as she used her precious few seconds left before Serena walked in to catch her breath and raise her arms in weak guarding position.
