Delilah could use any help she could get before the big opening next week. She took her job very seriously and this was her biggest chance to make it big in the industry. She dreamt of this for so long and messing it up wasn’t an option. She got a lot of good recommendations for one decent actor coach names Leo. She went to his class to meet up with him and work on her character as Elle Woods. As she arrived she had a big smile on her face, she was ready. “Hello, Mister Davis?” The Brit asked as she approached the male.

Leo looked up at the sound of his name. He was sitting a big desk with his nose in a book. He brought the book down from his face to down flat on the desk as he took in the appearance of who had disturbed him. He let out a low whistle taking in the image of the blonde blue eyed beauty. Such an easy casting choice this must have been. At least just by looks alone. He applauded that, but it was his job to make sure she was well equipped to portray the character. “If I’m not mistaken, Woods comma Elle?” he questioned, slyly quoting the movie. He shook his head quickly correcting himself. “Delilah Roche?" He asked and got up from the seat at the desk. He offered his hand out for a friendly shake. “Call me Leo.” He said introducing himself in his preferred name. “Now what brings you here? What do you feel you need to work on?”

Honestly? After being in acting school from 18 until 22 she had enough experience in her eyes and she didn’t really liked acting coaches. She always thought they were quite snoby but, her director wanted her to go to one and if this is what it took to become a Broadway actress, she’ll do it. The role was of Fanny Brice from Funny girl. Getting into a role this big, getting into Barbra Streisand’s shoes was huge. Delilah was a lucky girl and she will never screw this up. As she arrived to class she felt her heart beating fast. “Uh-yes, this is me! I need some help with a role I got.” She said as she placed the Broadway play on the teacher’s desk “This is a huge role and I need to be the best.”

“Of course, you do.” Leo said with a tight smile, climbing off of the student’s desk. All actors always thought the same way. The need to surpass the ordinary, and still find themselves unsatisfied. He looked over at the play she had set down. His face instantly scrunched at the title. Funny Girl? His brown eyes shot up at the obviously attractive blonde and blue eyes woman before him, “I’m sorry, but what the hell do you know about being the ugly duckling?” He said incredulously, still looking her over. “Who cast you as Fanny? Because then I’d have a shot at playing Danny Zuko with that director.”
complain, complain, and complain is all leo wanted to do right at this very moment. he found solace complaining over his life with a glass in his hand at his favorite spot on the ninth. ah, he was waiting for the sweet relief that would come to sliding himself in his seat with his usual order waiting for him. but today’s extra curricular activities just had to wait. he had a new client that absolutely had to be seen today.
all he could do was clench his jaw as he fought the desire to abandon the empty class room that was dubbed as his office today. his foot began tapping away as he sat inncorrectly on a student’s desk. his behind was perched on the headrest and his feet flat on the seat. he was hunched over, lost in the vision of elsewhere, till a quiet scuffle made him turn around.
leo sighed, seeing the combination of big blue eyes and blonde hair. another pretty young thing to surpass him in life. fantastic, he grumbled in his head. he cleared his throat before greeting her, his voice coming out warmer than his own thoughts. “Hey there, are you,” he turned to grab the resume that was on the desk. lifting up the page as he turned back towards her, he questioned, “Deliah Roche?” @itsdelilahroche
