---------------------------- Unseen Moments - Chapter One ----------------------------
"Come on Thomas...you are serious right...tell me you're serious"
"I swear on my dead mother's soul, Jay"
"When is it?...Oh man this is so cool...tell me you're not lying to me...please tell me you're not lying...When?...When?
"Jay...calm down...The show is this Saturday. It just one outfit. Can you do it?"
"Ummm let me think....Fuck yes I can do it...what are you crazy. Turn down a Versace show...What kind of agent are you anyways...you should know I would give a kidney...a lung....and my left ball to get this."
"This is going to be your, what, second time doing runway...Do you think you can handle it?"
"What, you put clothes on, you strut down the runway with attitude then you walk back. What's there to it?"
"Jay...remember your first opportunity...It's a wonder they even called, I'm sure they heard about it."
"Did you ever think...Maybe, just maybe that is the reason they called."
"But, Jay..."
"Thomas, I will go out there and be Jason Martin...If they don't like it, well, I guess that will be my last walk, but at least I did it knowing I put my all into it."
"Fine...remember, you have that Speedo shoot at 2pm tomorrow and Thursday at noon the one for Ralph Lauren. You fly out on Friday at noon. When you get to New York, you have a fitting at the store at 5, ask for a Corrine and after you meet with the people running the show. On Saturday, the show is at 7pm, they want you there at 5pm. Oh and Jay....I am proud of you."
"Thanks Thomas...Ahhhhhh...Versace.....I gotta go call Mom...Later."
"Ok, pick up your airline ticket at the office sometime tomorrow...Bye"
I hung up the phone and screammed one more time and picked up the phone and called Mom. She wasn't home. I was so excited I had to talk to someone. I dialed the phone again. It rang 4 time and then was picked up.
"Hello....(sounding out of breath)"
"Ky...you sound out of breath...did I disrupt something..."
"No perv...It's 5:30pm, I just got to the door when I heard the phone ringing inside and had to rush and get it. What's up?"
"Ky...Ky...you're not going to beleive this....I'm doing Versace..."
"Um..Jay...isn't he dead...that's kinda sick man."
".....what???....Oh...I'm the perv....No you idiot, I'm doing a runway in a Versace show...a runway...with press and famous people all around Ahhhhhhhhh..."
"Oh man, that is so cool. My best friend is now a runway model... strutting his stuff for the world to see."
"Well it's just one outfit."
"One outfit is better than nothing, hey it's your first time."
"Second"
"What, you did a runway before and you didn't tell me."
"Well it was kind of embarassing...I was so stressed, my mind was not with me and I kinda got to the end of the runaway and did a backflip off of it landing in the crowd."
"You didn't"
"Yeah and then I kinda went up to a writer and bend her over and kissed her, then jumped back up and walked out."
"You are such a show off. That's my Jason, has to be the center of attention. So, you going to do something like that this time?"
"I don't know...It's not like I planned it. I just did it...you know, spurr of the moment. But this is Versace...the big time."
"Hey, just be Jay. If it happens, it happens. If it all goes bad and they don't want you over there, you can alway come back to flipping burgers in San Jose."
"Yeah, I don't think so."
"Hey Jay, Congrats man, you deserve this chance, you've worked hard for it. I've got to go. I got a date tonight. So.."
"Whoa...Date...With who?"
"Well, her name is Jen. I met her at the bagel shop I go to. I've been seeing her for about a month now."
"Damn, Ky we need to talk more."
"Hey busy lives, look I gotta go"
"Alright Cassanova...Good luck and I'll talk to you later."
"Ok later"
I hung up. Kyle and I have been friend since we were like eight. We know everything about each other. I came out to him when I was eighteen and he supported me all through the rough points in my life. I have alway had a secret crush on that boy...But he isn't gay and I wouldn't want to ruin our friendship, so I've never mentioned it to him.
Now he has a girl and I'm all by myself out here. Living away from family and friends is bad, but try have the whole continent between you. But, there are no modeling opportunities in San Jose. So, it's the east coast and plus Florida is not that bad.
My slight down mood was replaced by excitement as one word crept into my mind...Versace. I hopped on the phone and tried Mom again. She was home and we talked for about a hour. After it was getting kind of late so I went to bed smiling and repeating "I can't beleive it...Versace."
The next day, I got up around 9 am and heading to my agent's office to pick up my ticket. Thomas wan't there but he had left the ticket with a note.
Jay,
We are so proud of you we decided to treat you to a first class trip. Your room is reserved at the Hotel San Carlos. Enjoy.
Thomas
ps...please behave.
"No way" is said to myself as I opened the envelope and looked at the first class airline ticket enclosed. I couldn't beleive it. I had never been on a first class trip in my life. I lifted them up in the air to admire them, then brought them to my lips and kissed them. "Yesssss"
No one could wipe the smile off my face. All the pictures they took at the Speedo shoot had me with the biggest smile plastered on my face. The rest of the week as a blurr. Finally it was Friday and I walking through OIA. It seemed a lot busier than normal. I worked my way through the crowd and boarded my flight. I asked the lady checking my ticket what was going on. She told me...You don't want to know. I boarded the plane and took my seat. I really didn't enjoy flying, so I just sat down and closed my eyes and mentally prepared for the flight.
A few minutes later, the stewardest was going through all of the preflight demonstration, but my eyes were still closed. When she said for everyone to buckle their seat belt and prepare for take off. The plane started to taxi to the runway and I guess I kind of grabbed the armrest real tight and my face went a little white. I heard a voice from across the aisle way.
"Hey...Are you Ok."
I didn't answer. I heard a click then "Sir...Sir..you need to sit down we're about to take off." Then another voice saying "Are you crazy... sit down and buckle up."
The next thing I knew, I felt someone pass infront of me and sit in the empty window seat next to me and a click of the seat belt just as the plane started to take off. I felt a hand grab my hand off the arm rest and held onto it. I squeezed as I felt the lift of the plane.
"Shit...Shit..."
When I heard this, I realized I was squeezing this person's hand really hard, so I eased up and turned my head towards him and cracked my eyes open. There next to me as a cute blond haired young man with pain on is face.
"Oh damn, I'm sorry about that." I said as I released his hand.
"Hey, no problem." He said opening and closing his hand. "You just looked like you needed some help through take off, so I came over."
I looked at him again and saw these incredible green eyes looking back at me and this gorgeous smile with perfect white teeth grinning at me and the he had the smoothest skin.
"Thanks, I appreciated it, I guess I really don't like flying much." I said, breaking my gazing at him.
Before he could say anything, a voice came from my left across the aisle way.
"Scoop...Hey Scoop...What the hell were you thinking...get back over here."
I turned to see where the voice was coming from and looking back at me was this very handsome young man with brown hair and these intense blue eyes that were looking right through me. I smiled at him and appologized.
"Hey, no problem, but Lance...Get back in your seat."
Then it hit me, who these guys were.I was looking at JC from NSYNC and sitting next to mewas Lance.
"Oh shit" I said looking back and forth between the two.
"I guess you figured out who we are huh."
"Yeah, I guess so...Lance...can I call you Lance."
"Ummm yeah...that is my name, and yours would be?"
"Oh, I'm sorry....I'm....uh....Jason...Jason Martin."
"Well nice to meet you Jason...I'm still Lance and that very rude individual over there is JC."
I looked over and said "Hey" to JC. He nodded and said.
"Ok Lance, get back to your seat now."
"Cool it Josh, I'm going to kick it here with Jason."
"Jay, please call me Jay."
"Ok...Jay. So what's taking you to New York?"
"Well I have a job waiting up there for me tomorrow, then it's back to Orlando. And you."
"Well, JC over there and Justin, he's two rows up, wanted to go check out a show, so we all hopped on the plane and we're going to check it out tomorrow."
We chatted the whole flight, mostly I chatted. Asking about their songs, their inspirations, their tours, their concerts, basically everything. One by one the other members of the group came by and I was introduced to them. JC even moved over to Lance's old seat and joined in our conversation. They were such great guys. Man and they were both so hot, one to my left and one to my right. I could totally get used to this.
When the announcement came on to buckle our seat belts for the descent. Lancegrabbed my hand and told me to squeeze the shit out of it if I needed too. I just laughed and then proceeded to squeeze more than the shit out of it when we landed. When the plane came to a stop and people started to exit the plane. I grabbed my carry on and was about to leave when I noticed the guys were just sitting there.
"Aren't you guys coming?"
"No, they told us there is a mob waiting for us in the airport already, so they are going to leave us on and move the plane to another part of the airport where a car is waiting for us to take us to the hotel." JC explained.
"Ok, well, it was great meeting you and enjoy New York. Maybe we'll see each other again in Orlando. Take care."
They all said their goodbyes and I left. Man, they were not kidding when they said mob. The airport was full of screaming young girls. I remembered back to OIA and the crowd there and understood. I went and grabbed my luggage and hailed a cab to take me to my hotel. "This has started out to be a great adventure." I said as I entered the cab.
"Where to?"
"The Hotel San Carlos please"
When I got to the hotel and up to my room, man was it posh. Queen size bed, kichenette, sofa and a walk in closet.
"Man this sure beats the motel 8's I was used to staying in...I could get used to this." I said to myself as I laid down on the bed and took it all in. It was about 3 pm and I had 2 hours, so I went down to the hotel's workout center and had a quick workout. I went back to my room and showered then headed out to the fitting.
I got a cab and got to the Versace store about 5 til 5 and asked for Corrine.
Corrine came out and took me to the top floor of the store. Her assistant started taking my measurements and then ran into a back room and came out with an outfit. In a wiz, they had me stipped to my boxers and dressed in the outfit and had me walk around.
"Looks good, ok Jason...let's get you back into your own clothes and you and I will head out so I can show you where the show is being held and then we'll go meet some people for dinner. Sound good?"
"Fine" I said as I was stripped again and then handed my clothes. I got dressed and we headed out. At the venue, they were having a dinner party for all the people involved in the show. After dinner, I was taken around and introduced to a few people and then Corrine took me over to a crowd of people. We stood there for a few minutes and then I noticed who was at the center of the crowd. It was Donatella Versace. She turn around and Corrine introduced me to her.
"Donatella, this the Jason Martin...the young model you hand pick for the show, Jason, this is Donatella Versace."
She walked up to me as kissed me on both cheeks. Then she place on hand on my cheek.
"Beautiful, beautiful...make me proud Jason Martin." She said in a very heavy Italian accent. Then she turned around and walked to another crowd.
I was speechless. She had hand picked me? I turned to Corrine and she just smiled at me. "Jason, if you will excuse me, I have to attend to some business back at the store. Stay as long as you want."
"Thank you Corrine"
She smiled at me and then left. The room felt to crowded for me so I just decide to leave. I headed out and back to my hotel. I just laid there on my bed repeating the word "Wow" over and over again. It was getting kind of late, so I showered and when to bed.
