She is from the Midwest, new to fame and celebrities which is why she is surprised when she lands the job as Ben Solo’s assistant. The reason she came halfway across the country and he turns out to not be the stunning actor she thought he was. Fame and fortune have taken it’s toll and she is determined to help him.
Nudging the first girl awake she slaps a pen in her groggy hand and forces her to sign it, having the next do the same. They start to get lippy with her when she throws their clothes at them and tells them to get out, explaining they’ve signed a NDA and will not speak of anything that happened to anyone. Arguing with her, she chases them down the stairs and out into the drive half naked with their clothes balled in their hands.
“Nice work, Miss Rey, always a pleasure.” Ben’s cook and house maid, Pearl smiles a congratulatory smile at her, though she looks weary with all the cleaning ahead of her.
“You as well, Pearl. Has he been partying all weekend?”
“You know him. One bad review is all it takes. This was a rough one. Three days.”
Three days? She thinks. That means he’s been able to hide it from her when they were talking and working together at the end of last week. Now she is furious. Her grip tightening around the broom handle she storms back up the stairs and into his room.
“Get up you lazy fuck!” she shouts at him.
He barely stirs, stretching a bit, never opening his eyes. She jumps onto the bed and stands beside him smacking him with the broom.
“I said get up,” she enunciates, “You lazy fuck!”
After a moment he seems to become suddenly alert and rolls over holding his hands before him in defense.
“I’m up. Christ, Rey, what is with you?”
“Me?” she shouts irritated by his question. “No Ben, what the hell is a matter with you?”
Waving her off he goes to the bathroom. Rey, no longer caring about his boundaries follows him in and continues to shout as he takes a piss.
“Ben Solo, this will be the last time I have to rescue you.”
“Rey, I’m in the bathroom.”
“I don’t give a damn. Do you have any idea how many times I have seen your drunk naked ass? Or your penis for that matter. Oooh, big boy is shy now?” She waves her hands in exaggeration to her comment.
Gaping at her, he flushes the toilet and washes his hands as a courtesy to her presence. Turning around and leaning against the counter to face her.
“I could have sucked your dick a dozen times and you wouldn’t even remember. Like I said, this is the last time this shit happens. I’m moving in and babysitting you full time, and I don’t give a rat’s ass if that offends you. I’m not going to watch you flush away a career or your life because you aren’t happy. Damn it Ben, you should be. Look at what you have!” Groaning she waves her fists at him in frustration and walks away.
He follows her in silence watching her pick over his room, gathering trash, then clothing. Taking the time to toss the remainder of the girl’s clothes into the trash.
“I have a maid, Rey. You don’t have to,” he starts.
“Like hell I don’t. I’m not making Pearl clean this and you shouldn’t either, it’s a bit out of her pay grade and you shouldn’t be living like a pig anyhow.”
Nodding he bends over and picks up a few items. She snatches them from his grip and tosses them on top of the laundry basket.
“You are kind of feisty. I miss my twenties,” he attempts to joke with her.
“Oh, so you are too old to party like a teenager. At this rate you’ll be missing your thirties as well. Go shower, you smell like a month long rave.”
Dropping his boxers before her, she turns away, as he turns back to the bathroom. She looks back to see only his bare ass as he disappears behind the closed door. Shaking her head at him she takes the laundry down to the laundry room and tosses in the first load.
“I have to say, you are perfect for him,” Pearl says as she comes back out.
“Pearl, I appreciate your thoughts, but I’m not looking for a child to raise.”
“Yes, Miss Rey. I understand. When shall I expect to have your room ready for your moving in to babysit?”
“Touché,” Rey grins. “I can’t watch him ruin his career. He does deserve better than that.”
Rey moves to California where she becomes the personal assistant to the most admired actor in Hollywood. Only he isn’t what the media makes him out to be. Broken by his own fame and fortune he finds himself dabbling in drinks and women to take the edge off. Until Rey refuses to give up on and protect him from his own misguided choices. Before long she becomes the barrier between him and the rest of the world.
