Modeling

At the start of the next day, Luke mostly sat in his room thinking about going through with Marlene's offer. Ultimately he gave in, he wanted to help them and he could really use the money. He didn't believe he was going to become famous or anything but he really didn't care about that. His only concern was Miguel, he had no respect for boundaries but Luke knew he wasn't hostile or unfriendly, in fact he was simply too friendly. With one last sigh, Luke returned to the kitchen to find his friends working diligently while Miguel was perched on a chair still wearing nothing but a towel while reading a Spanish/English dictionary. Well at least he understood Rule #2. Thought Luke. However, when it came to all the other rules, Miguel either didn't understand, pretended not to know, or just flat-out ignored them. This was proven when Luke walked in and Miguel quickly grabbed Luke's ass to give it a firm squeeze, "So happy you're back Hanes!"

Luke turned beet red and jumped away from Miguel's grasp. "Dude! You just broke Rule #1 and #3 perv!"

"Hm?" Miguel tilted his head.

"Hey, Tighty-White Knight, are you pushing our Miguel to study up on his English?" Marlene talked to Luke, ignoring his distress.

"Well duh, if you want to work with the guy shouldn't you be able to communicate?" Luke sounded angry.

"Here's an idea genius, rather than make Miguel do all the work how about you learn some Spanish and meet him halfway?" Marlene glared.

"Uh..." Luke didn't know how to reply "...I don't...want to...?" he answered lamely.

Marlene rolled her eyes, "Did you at least make a decision yet? About our offer?"

Happy for the subject change Luke composed himself, "I will work for you but I am only doing this for the money go it?"

Marlene smiled and nodded as Taylor passed her a document that she slid towards Luke on the table, "Understood Hanes, now just sign this contract and you will officially will become a talent of Marrick Agencies! We're going to make you a star kid!"

Luke sat down and quickly skimmed over the contract. Most of it was in a jargon Luke didn't understand but the parts he did know sounded pretty promising, like a normal contract. Luke wrote his signature at the bottom of the contract where he noticed Miguel's name was written right beneath his. He agreed to the same contract as well. As Luke finished initialing everything, he felt strong arms wrap around him from behind. Miguel rested his chin on Luke's shoulder and gave his cheek a kiss. "Now Hanes and I are together." Miguel kissed Luke's neck and Luke tried to flail out of his steely grip totally embarrassed.

"Seriously! I need to educate you on personal space you giant weirdo!" Luke blushed and Miguel laughed. The man either didn't understand Luke or he just found Luke's angry expression to be too adorable; perhaps it was both.

"Alright, now that you both are signed up we can move on to prepping you for your first job together." Marlene scooped up the legally binding contract excitedly.

"What exactly are you going to have us do?" Luke looked to Marlene while still uselessly trying to remove himself from Miguel's hug. Miguel squeezed Luke a little tighter as he also looked to Marlene with curiosity.

"You boys are going to do some modeling. I already ordered some sample clothes for you to be trying on for the shoot. We are going to do some modeling practice as well to polish your charms for the camera."
