Graeme chuckled as he watched Janiyah making circles in the living room. Janiyah protested, "What are you laughing for? I see nothing funny."

Graeme walked over to Janiyah, grabbed her hands, and led her to the couch. "Janiyah Alexia Frazier, you have no reason to be nervous."

"Yes, I do. I am about to marry one of the best actors in Hollywood. And, what if I mess up the interview? What will Hollywood say about you marrying me?"

"Mi Vida, I don't give a hoot what Hollywood will say about us getting married. You and I are perfect for each other. And, we are a power couple - the hot and sexy billionaire, along with her charming/sexy actor husband. You, my wifey-to-be will take Hollywood by storm. Don't be surprised if you get movie offers."

"Me, in a movie?! No way!"

"Woman, yes way. I would love to work with you in a movie. And, we could even do some, hot, steamy love scenes. I'm surprised you haven't asked your dad to even be your agent."

"Speaking of love scenes, I hope you know you will never have another one of those in your movies unless it is with me. I guess I never even thought about it. But, what would I know about acting?"

"Yes ma'am, Mrs. Harrison," Graeme replies with a mischievous grin. "You have me to help you. Now, that I think about it, I want to do a movie with you. Let's focus on that later. Right now we need to get ready to leave for the interview. Then, we can come home and get ready for our vacation." Before they got off the couch, Graeme gave Janiyah a quick kiss on her cheek. He knew if it wasn't quick that they would be late for their interview.

Janiyah grabbed her sunglasses and bag, then the soon-to-be power couple left the house.

Immediately after Graeme locked the door, they turned around to be faced with Megan. "Janiyah, here are my keys. I'll be there shortly."

Janiyah reluctantly went to Graeme's Escalade and pulled it out of the garage.

"Megan, you have some nerve to even think about setting foot on my property. You messed up big time, and I can't forgive you for what you did. I'm sorry about what happened to you, but you just learned a very hard lesson about being betrayed."

"I'm sorry, Graeme. I really am," Megan says with tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Save your tears and apology for someone who cares because I sure don't. Leave me alone!" Graeme walked over to the Escalade and sat on the passengers' side. Janiyah then pulled away.

************************************

Janiyah followed Graeme's instructions and pulled up to the studio in 20 minutes. She is beginning to feel comfortable driving around in Los Angeles.

"Is this a live interview, like on a television show? Look at all of those fans," Janiyah asked.

"L.A. Entertainment is one of the most popular magazines in the United States. I believe it will be no audience. But if it is, you got this. Hollywood is calling you, baby," Graeme reassures Janiyah.

"I hope you are right."

"Here comes the security guards. I'll come over to help you out." As Graeme got out of his seat, he waved to the fans that were behind velvet ropes. He then walked over to the driver's side and helped Janiyah out.

"Mr. & Mrs. Harrison, welcome to L.A. Entertainment. Follow us please." As they followed the guards into the building, Janiyah and Graeme both waved to the fans.

"See, that wasn't so hard, was it?"

"No, it wasn't. But that was just here."

"Woman, you are a trip. Now, I know the woman who owns a multi-billion dollar company is not standing next to me nervous?" Graeme says to Janiyah with arched eyebrows.

Janiyah looked at him and rolled her eye, "I darn sure am nervous."

Graeme and Janiyah saw a gentleman walking their way.

"Welcome to L.A. Entertainment. My name is Mathis Zimmermann. I'm the assistant to Ms. Meyers. Follow me please."

"As in Jillian Meyers, the talk show host?" Janiyah asked nervously as they followed him.

"Yes, Mrs. Harrison. But the interview for today will not have a studio audience. It will be broadcast tonight on television though."

Janiyah breathed a sigh of relief. Mathis led Janiyah and Graeme into a room that was set up like a living room. "Please have a seat. Did you need anything - something to eat or drink?"

"I would like some water, please," Janiyah answers.

"No thank you," Graeme then replied.

"Okay, I will be right back," Mathis says as he exits the room.

About five minutes later, Mathis came back with Janiyah's water. Jillian Meyers also entered the room.

Janiyah says, "Thank you" as Mathis hands her the bottle of water.

"Welcome to L.A. Entertainment," Jillian says as she shakes Janiyah and Graeme's hands.

"Thank you, Jillian." Janiyah and Graeme then took their seats on one couch, while Jillian sat on the other. Janiyah's stomach was in knots as the camera lights were turned on.

Graeme grabbed Janiyah's right hand to try and help Janiyah calm her nerves. Jillian also noticed that Janiyah was squirming on the couch.

"Honey, you don't have to be nervous. I'll give you a few minutes. Take a few deep breaths. Janiyah, correct?"

"Yes, it is." Janiyah took a few breaths. Then, she declared herself ready for the interview.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jillian - "Ladies and gentlemen, I am privileged to exclusively interview Hollywood's future power couple - actor Graeme Harrison, and his fiancée, Janiyah Frazier. Thank you so much for the interview. The first question I'll direct towards Janiyah. How did you guys meet?"

Janiyah - "I remember the day like it was yesterday. It was a Friday morning back in June of last year. I stopped at a local Starbucks in Houston, which is my hometown. After picking up my order, I tried to exit the Starbucks but noticed a crowd of women was blocking the door. I'm a busy woman, so I pushed the door open and made my way to my SUV. I guess I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking. Next thing I knew, I dropped my pastry and spilled some of my coffee. As I picked up my pastry, I noticed a very muscular pair of legs. Once I stood up, I noticed it was Graeme. At the time, I couldn't stand him. I always thought he was a jerk."

Graeme - "The first words to come out of my mouth was for Janiyah to watch where she was walking. I told her, 'Do you have any idea who I am, Miss?' But Janiyah was not going to back down. She gave me a dose of my own medicine. After that, I realized it was stupid of me to say that to her. I found myself thinking about her the rest of the day. When I found out Janiyah was my best friend's sister, I made it my mission to know more about her. It took a little bit before we became friends. But after that we quickly became lovers. I love this beautiful woman very much."

Jillian - "Aww. You two are adorable together. The next question is for Graeme. How did you feel about Janiyah proposing?"

Graeme - "Janiyah was afraid I would tell her no because she proposed. But I told her it was a total turn-on for her to propose. She beat me to it because I planned to propose to her in April. I love everything about her - from head to toe. Janiyah is my queen, and I can't wait to spend my life with her."

Jillian - "Have you guys picked a date yet?"

Janiyah - "Not yet. But we will pick a date soon. It will definitely be this year. I can't wait to be this charming man's wifey. He means the world to me. And, I will do any and everything to make him happy."

Jillian - "Graeme with you being an actor, would you like to one day maybe star in a movie with Janiyah?"

Graeme - "Absolutely. I would love to work on a movie with my wife. Working on a project with her would not only be amazing but also fun. Janiyah is worried that she wouldn't fit into the Hollywood scene. But she has nothing to worry about. My baby already dresses like she is a star. She can do it all - highly successful business owner, can throw down on the grill, she is sweet, kind-hearted, and sexy. And, she is all mine."

Jillian - "What is the weirdest question either one of you been asked?"

Graeme - "Female fans have asked me, 'Can we have sex at my house?' I have had men ask me what female co-stars are like during love scenes."

Janiyah - "Guys were too intimidated to even approach me for a date. I don't know why because I am one of the nicest people to be around. It was surprising that Graeme was even interested in me. That was another reason that I quickly fell for him. He loved me for who I was and not what people perceived."

Jillian - "What were your best/worst subjects in school?"

Janiyah - "For me, I was a Math whiz. Because of that, I now own a multi-billion dollar accounting firm - Frazier Accounting Services."

Graeme - "For me, it was Math too. I followed after my parents."

Jillian - "What do Graeme and Janiyah like to do for fun?"

Janiyah - "We are two, very competitive people. We have a game room in our house in Houston. Actually, that was how Graeme and I had our first date. We played pool and whoever won two out of three games picked what the loser would do. Graeme chose for us to go on an all-day date."

Graeme - "We also like to go on dates, to the movies, swimming, bowling, and definitely cuddling."

Jillian - "Where did you grow up?"

Janiyah - "I was born and raised in Houston, Texas."

Graeme - "I am a Cali native - born in San Diego, but I now live in Los Angeles."

Jillian - "What sports do you enjoy watching?"

Janiyah - "I am the biggest Houston Texans fan. I even have season tickets. Football is basically what I watch."

Graeme - "Growing up I was a Chargers fan. I like the Lakers for basketball."

Jillian - "The last question is what is one message you would give to your fans?"

Graeme - "Thank you for your support throughout my acting career. Without their support, I wouldn't be the actor I am today."

Janiyah - "If I did have fans, I would want to say thank you for their support. But to my clients, thank you for entrusting me to take care of your accounting needs. It means a lot to me."

Jillian - "Thank you so much for your time. And, congratulations."

Janiyah - "Thank you so much for having us."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The camera was turned off, signaling the end of the interview.

"You did great, Janiyah. You didn't seem nervous at all," Jillian tells her.

"Thank you. I was a nervous wreck. My stomach felt like it was twisted in knots. But, when Graeme put his arm around me, I felt calmer," Janiyah says.

"Also, with your permission, L.A. Entertainment would like to feature your interview in the next issue of the magazine. Your picture would also grace the cover of the magazine."

Janiyah and Graeme both nodded in agreement.

"Great. We have a photography studio here in the building. Please, follow me."

Janiyah and Graeme followed Jillian to the photography studio. The backdrop for the picture was a romantic beach scene.

"The camera will be ready when you are," The photographer announces.

"Okay, we are ready." Janiyah stood facing Graeme. In a matter of seconds, he hoisted her in the air.

(I used this picture to demonstrate the pose.)

Janiyah giggled the whole time Graeme held her in the air. "You can put me down now." Once Graeme put Janiyah down, they went to check out the pictures. They picked the best one for the cover.

"Thanks again, Jillian. This was definitely a new experience for me. But I liked it," Janiyah says.

"You're welcome. I believe the sky's the limit for you two. Enjoy the rest of your day," Jillian says as she leaves the room.

Graeme and Janiyah grabbed each other's hands and left the studio.

Tuesday, February 19th, 2019

Janiyah and Graeme sat back on the plane, feeling relaxed.

"I can't wait until we land in the Virgin Islands."

"I can't wait neither - away from people and Megan," Graeme says as Janiyah's flight attendant stops before them.

"Janiyah? Graeme, would you like anything to eat or drink?" The flight attendant asked.

"No thank you. Can you let me know when we are close to landing?"

"Sure thing," The flight attendant replied.

"Thank you." Janiyah and Graeme went back to sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Graeme was woken up by his phone ringing. He noticed it was Damion.

Damion - "Sorry to call you on your way to the Virgin Islands. I just got a call about finally getting the movie started again."

Graeme - "That's great news, D."

Damion - "Not when I tell you the rest. The movie is being relocated back to Los Angeles."

Graeme - "Say what?!"

Damion - "That is the least of the worst part of the news. Instead of a female lead and love interest for you, it is being changed. You will not have a love interest. Now you will have a male co-star. Here it comes - the male co-star is Jackson."

Graeme uttered every curse word known to mankind before he spoke again to Damion.

Graeme - "You have got to be kidding me!!!"
