'It is...I was fourteen then...my second photo shoot,' she replied softly. It was from before the ex-boyfriend even came around, but Emma didn't look any happier there.
A lot of the fames held photos of her mother and step-father, a wedding picture, a picture from their last holiday to Spain or Rome or somewhere, a few pictures of Emma as a child or young teenager.

"Wow," Hanson whistled, low under his breath. "You look a lot younger," He laughed a little.
"So, I'm guessing that means you're a model then? Like, proper model model not just pose in front of the mirror model," Tom had read in her file that she was a model, but he hadnt expected a professional, or any where close.

'I am...I work mostly in England...I've done a few shoots in Los Angeles and Paris,' she replied with a slight sigh as she sat at the table. 'My mum was a model when she was younger until I was born. It really isn't as glamorous as everyone thinks.'
She took a sip of her water and watched him as her Lab, Choco, rested his head on her right knee. For a moment she looked to her beloved dog and gave him a fond and affectionate look before returning her gaze to her visitor.

"I dont think it's glamorous at all," Tom said, still staring at the photo. He remembered a case years ago where young girls were used and manipulated to make porn movies because they wanted to be 'models'. "I think it's disgusting,"

'Really?' she asked slightly amused. 'So I disgust you now?'
Emma didn't have the hassle of the beauty schools and anyone trying to make her a porn star. The only people she had to deal with regularly included her mother (since she had forced Emma into this) and her agent Abigail Carter (who Emma confided in more than her own mother). She did by choice, however, pose nude for magazines and that was to drive her mother mad and hopefully get her to have Emma quit the business. Money spoke to her mother then and always would.

"I didnt say you were digusting," Hanson rolled his eyes. "I just think the whole business is disgusting. Young girls are forced to pose for cameras, told there beautiful, taught that all that matters is their looks, pushed to the top and then crushed. And then what do they have left? If noone likes their looks anymore then they think they're nothing and who knows what happens to them after that," Tom shrugged.

'That's why you have other plans. I'm looking to get out of modelling as soon as I can,' she replied, looking to her dog. 'You really don't belong at that school...you sound too old. Most people at this school have either heard of me and my antics...or they worship me for being in the business already. There are girls and boys at this school who are looking to go into acting...films, television, stage and they are envious...really envious and I don't understand it. But you, you sound like you have seen what it does. I'm not stupid, I have been observing you carefully.'

Tom nodded, pursing his lips slightly. He had to tread very carefully. "Really? Old?" He laughed a little. "People are usually telling me I seem too young, too immature. I just dont believe in all this stuff, I'm eighteen years old but I havent been walking around with my eyes closed for those years. I've been in schools like this one before, I've seen what's it's like." He turned around and sat down on one of the kitchen stools.
"But unfortunately, I'm stuck in this school for now and I dont really feel like getting thrown out of another school just yet,"

'You sound older...like you've been around...seen things,' she replied.
Oddly, she got that reaction often. She looked older than her age and acted it. Often her mother told her that she was born 25. Emma wanted to grow up and now she had grown up too quickly, she often felt it was her own fault along with her mother's. Her father had tried so hard to keep Emma young and youthful and not growing up as quick as she wanted. That of course ended with his death and made her grow up since her mother sent her away to boarding schools.

"So do you," Tom shrugged. "I suppose I had to grow up quickly," He said, that was all he was going to tell her, he wasnt going into great detail about his past, he needed to move the conversation in a different direction.
"Where are your parents? At work?" He asked, since the house was empty except the two of them and the dogs.
