"Eh it was worth the try," Bette said shrugging looking sideways at Shane who had to cut her nappy long brown hair because Denbo and her goons spitballed gum into it. Shane couldn’t exactly afford a stylist so did it herself and ended up with super short hair and uneven locks.

She had it greased down with a line on the side much like the nerdy boy hair style. Still Bette thought that looked better than what she had before.

"I’ll talk to Luke about making you a stock girl," Shane said.

"Good thing you’re helping him with his homework or he would give us nothing," Bette said sighing. "Can’t believe our boss is a high school kid."

"You know they wouldn’t even hire me as a teacher?" Shane said.

"Oh come on, really?"

"Yeah, they said I would scare the students."

"Then imagine what I would do to them," Bette said sadly.

"Give them heart attacks," Shane said with a grin.

Bette smacked her arm and laughed, not exactly denying that it wouldn’t happen that way.

"Hey, you know I’m exaggerating right?" Shane said.

"No you’re not," Bette said sadly, "come on Shane, I didn’t even stand a chance against that woman. Look at me I’m horrendous."

"You’re not alone," Shane said with a sigh, "one day someone will see all the potential we really have Bette right through the ugliness."

The ringing phone interrupted the conversation and Bette grabbed the phone, "hello?"

"Hi is this Bette Porter?" A man on the line said.

"Yes this is her how may I help you?"

"This is Andrew Gomez from EcoFashion."

Bette straightened up saying, "yes?"

"I just wanted to apologize for how I treated you earlier and I wanted to ask you to please join our team here at EcoFashion," Gomez said.

"R-really? W-what about Dylan?" Bette stammered.

"Um she’s not half as qualified as you are," Gomez said, "what do you say? Will you come in for a second interview?"

"Y-yes absolutely!" Bette cried.

"Okay great," Gomez said, "I will see you tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow, I’ll be there," Bette said excitedly.

She hung up the phone and smiled at Shane.

"What happened?" Shane said.

"I got the job."

"At EcoFashion?"

"Yes! I got it!"

"Congratulations!" Shane cried pulling Bette into a hug.
