Fun weekend, but I think I'm partied out.
Raved all weekend. Nonstop. Don’t think I slept.
Oh, wow. Now that sounds like a good time.
And I wasn't invited...?
Fun weekend, but I think I'm partied out.
Well, some people clearly have all the fun. What were you up to?
Finally done with me' shoots.
I never really know what to say…
A word of advice for getting further in your career, even as a model: small talking is everything.
Even if entirely mundane.
Why don't you tell me more about yourself? You're Irish, a model, and are depressingly straight. What else? Indulge my curiosity.
Finally done with me' shoots.
I’ve been good.
Still a fantastic orator, I see?
Finally done with me' shoots.
How’ve you been?
Well, actually. Preparing for a week of intense work.
And you, aside from the boring photoshoot?
Finally done with me' shoots.
Ah, hello, Christopher.
Brandon.
Finally done with me' shoots.
I love my job, but being half naked in front of a camera for days can start to get seriously borin’.
Not for the photographers, I assure you.
Sorry I've been MIA,
Starbucks? How hipster of you. I’ll keep an eye out for the Instagram photos.
Whoops. I apologize, that should have read 'ranting about Starbucks'.
Specifically about their emphasis on this red cup promotion when they should be promoting their actual drinks.
Blame Eric. He's tried to make me anti-Starbucks for a while now.
Sorry I've been MIA,
Been spending a lot of time in the studio working on some original tracks. How’s everyone doing?
Oliver. I was wondering where you'd gotten to. Original tracks? Intriguing.
I've been good. You've missed me ranting on Starbucks, and basically nothing else.
"A fireplace and a piano, you’ve got to be joking me? We’ve got a real romantic over here folks. Next thing you’re going to tell me is that you’ve got a supply of strawberries dipped in chocolate conveniently placed on your table," Gage shrugs playfully "Well, y’know times are tough. We’re in a cuddle recession so you gotta do what you gotta do."
"You’re right, structure is key and I guess that’s something you have to learn in school. But I think you develop your writing style at a young age and you grow from there, no matter what you learn that style will always shine through. I-I uh didn’t exactly have an opportunity to go to college. Not that I don’t want to go, I just need to save up a bit before attempting anything like that and I’m twenty-two years young."
You call me a romantic now, but let's see if you think the same after a while of knowing me. I'm not exactly a sweet, love at first sight kind of guy. Well, a cuddle recession is better than a cuddle inflation. There aren't many people I'd allow the privilege of a cuddle or two. And no, I have no strawberries at all. That's where the scotch sits, near the four full bookcases in that room alone.
I started writing at a very early age. As I did with reading. Funnily enough, they were the only things unaffected by a childhood case of ADD. And I agree...it has always shined through. You didn't? I'm sorry about that...you've always got time, though. College costs far more than it should. I was lucky enough to not have to worry too much about expenses.
Twenty-two? Excellent. I'm twenty-three.
"I’m sure you could, I mean, with your fireplace and all you’d be the most well-off person amongst many other choices. Psh, hardly a predator, more like a forceful prey," he smiles.
"I mean, being an English major in comparison to not going to university aren’t really going to make that much of a difference. In my opinion all school does is make your writing seem robotic, novels are meant to be creative. Unless of course you wanted to be a professor or teacher."
The fireplace is in between my piano and a really nice couch, too, near the TV. So it's in a prime position, if that makes it any more desirable. Forceful prey...I like that. Sometimes it's nice to play both sides.
It taught me a lot about the inner workings of novel structure, and symbolism and the like, so the years definitely weren't a waste, but as you said...it was more beneficial for an academic than a writer. You didn't go to college, huh? How old are you?
"I mean — it’s not that hard to find a cuddle buddy. You can just ask a friend for a movie night and flop on top of them when they’re least expecting it. You’ve just got to hope that they’re not stronger than you and eventually they’ll just let it happen.
Well yeah, I just tend to complain a lot when it comes to the weather. A Harvard-dropout? I guess it says something that you were smart enough to be accepted at such a prestigious educational facility.”
Oh, I think I could easily find one. I even have a prime candidate. I was referring to a hypothetical situation, but aren't you quite the predator, there.
I find that a lot of people do. Yep...I was an English major, but I realized I'd rather be writing the material than studying it, so I dropped out. I can't say I regret the decision at all. Thank you, Gage. It also helps to have connections...I'll let you judge for yourself which you think I had more of, the brains or the friends.
"Nothing rivals a good cuddler, just saying. Ah to have a fireplace, does it actually manage to heat up your house or is it one of those novelty things?
Okay then, Chris it is — Well I’ve actually lived here my whole life; and you?”
True, but sometimes those can be more difficult to locate...though, it's normally easy for someone who looks like you. Oh no, it actually works. It's in my favorite room of the apartment, too, which is even better.
You have? Wow...so you must at least know what to expect, temperature-wise? Well...I was born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island. Went to Harvard, dropped out of Harvard, moved to New York for two years, and now...here we are. Slightly more complicated than your situation.
"I think I’m going to need to buy some heavier clothes or a personal body blanket," he nods and smiles "I’m Gage. Nice to meet you Chris - can I call you Chris or do you prefer Christopher?"
A personal body blanket? Interesting. See, it's times like this that I'm pleased with myself for choosing an apartment with a fireplace.
Gage. It's a pleasure to meet you. No, feel free to use Chris...most people call me that anyway. So how long have you been in L.A, Gage?
Good hour jog
It’s about what love really means, to not use someone for shameless motives
How sweet. I like that.
And who is it about?
"A bowl of chicken noodle soup sounds really great right now. This cold weather has been nothing but a drag."
Trust me, it's only going to get colder.
Christoper Whitehart. What's your name, stranger?
