He looked over at the sleeping woman beside him. Another red-head, and it didn't even look natural. He rolled his eyes cant believing that he fell for second best . . . again. Sighing, he got up and searched the floor for his boxers and pants, finally locating them and tugging them on. He threw his shirt on and grabbed his phone and keys. The girl stirred in her sleep.
"Pathetic," he muttered to himself, walking out of her apartment.

Two hours later, he was in one of his favorite apartments in California when his phone rang.
"Hello?" he toweled his jet black hair.
"Daniel, I just got you another movie." His manager, Martial send from the other end of the line.
Daniel groaned loudly. "Again." I just did a billion dollar one two months ago. I'm running out of things to spend my money on."
"C'mon." Martial begged.
"Fine, whats the name of this one?"
"I haven't gotten all the details yet, but in this one you get to play sweet and innocent."
"As if I dont do that enough." He took a deep swig of alcohol straight from the bottle.
"Yeah, well, all the shooting is being done in New York, so make sure you're there for the meeting party tomorrow. If I tell them you're coming, the place is gonna be pretty packed."
"Any other celebs going to be there?"
"Yeah. We got Hannah Poe, but she says she's only gonna do it if you're there."
Daniel rolled his eyes. Hannah Poe, been there done that, he thought to himself. She was just as self conceited as the rest, only different was that she gave great head, but he was bored with her. Her perfectly straight blonde hair with its signature blue eyes and skinny as a twig body one gets from starving themselves, Hannah Poe was one of the biggest country singer and the biggest whore he had ever had the pleasure of fucking. She was dumb as a stick, but smart when it comes to getting what she wants.
Martial's grainy voice brought Daniel out of his thoughts. "You in or out?" he asked.
"I'm in, only if I get to bring Eddie."
Eddie is Danny's oldest and best friend. They knew each other since the preschool days, even back then when Danny was white and Eddie was black. As soon as Danny was introduced to the film business, he got some hook-ups for Eddie who wanted to be and now is a millionaire rapper.
Many people, including Daniel's mother would say that he's done pretty much a lot for himself, at twenty-five, he was one of the world's most eligible bachelors and could afford to retire right now if he wanted to. Yet there was something missing. There always was, but he had never admitted it until now.

The first thing Jen heard was the slam of the door followed by the scream of someone whose voice sounded close to her best friend's. Jen was off the bed in milliseconds, down the stairs in seconds, in front of her friend.
