Beau knew becoming a prospect for a pro football league was going to make him famous. He never fathomed though, the reality of it until his dad was approached by Mr. Stevens for a spot in his upcoming blockbuster. Stevens was a famous film director known around for his ruthless personality and a no bullshit direction style. Beau’s parents enthusiastically displayed their joy on the phone as their son would be a movie star. “Mom dad, please. Just let me talk to whoever this Stevens guy is and then we will take it from there. I wanna see what they are offering”. After some more small chit chattering Beau received a ring from an unknown number. After apologizing and telling his parents he loved them for the 100th time, Beau answered the strange new call. “Hello Mr. Novak, I presume you’ve heard from you parents the reason I am calling.” Beau was temporarily stunned in awe before he realised he needed to answer the man. “Yes of course. I am assuming this is Mr. Stevens?”. “Yes, now let's skip the small talk and get straight to the point. I want you to come here to my studio and be a side character in my next show Relay to Fire. You will play Ed, the main character's fat friend who becomes a big time douchebag.” Beau was puzzled by this. His whole life he secretly dreamed of being on the big screen but when his chance was finally granted, it was to become the role of a jerk. A fat one too. “I’m sorry but I don’t think you mentioned the contract outline yet”. A loud annoyed grumble came through the phone. “Son, you should be the last person asking for money. The chance to star in such a blockbuster for a massive name like me is worth the work. Stupid kids these days. Beau even me saying your name should be a lottery win for you. Now just accept the damn deal and I’ll see you every weekday next month”. “But the DSFL Dra-” “But nothing. Watch your tone or yo-”
Beau promptly hung up the phone.
