                     Maxon and Dominique made their way to the set without a word because they weren’t allowed to do so. But that didn’t stop them from looking at each other and immediately guess what the other was like. Maxon thought that Dominique looked very elegant and young. Her features were soft and she would be a beautiful subject to shoot. She moved with grace and her eyes twinkled a bit. Dominique was the type of girl that guys would be pining over but she’s single because her standards haven’t been met yet. Dominique thought Maxon was quite tall and lean. He had an awkward smile, like his lips weren’t used to it. He had striking steel gray eyes hidden in huge glasses. He had messy dark hair that had natural highlights when light hit it, it wasn’t exactly straight or curly, just in between. Overall, he looked very laid back and content like he didn’t worry a lot and had a very nice aura around him. She wonders if her first impression was a correct.
                    They sat across each other on two easy chairs trying to settle in as Natalia gave directions to the camera crew on where to place the lights and the where to but reflectors. She told Maxon to not sit too comfortably because it looked a little lousy and told Dominique to look a little relaxed because she looked a bit constipated. They were given cards that contained the questions. When they were ready to start the video, Natalia started rolling.

1st Question: Define yourself in 3rd person then make the other person react on how you described yourself.

Maxon: “Ladies first”

Dominique: “Wait, I need time to think about which parts I’ll include. I’m a ‘lil awesome.”

Maxon: *laughs* “Oh little Miss Perfect huh?”

Dominique: “Perfect’s overrated, I prefer, exponentially gifted. Kidding kidding. Please don’t think I’m cocky. I’m really nervous so I’m faking confidence till it becomes real.”

Maxon: “Why would you be nervous?”

Dominique: “I don’t even know. I just am. But going back to video. If I were to describe myself in third person. I’d say, Her name Dominique Elise Hagen. People usually call her Doms or Nikki and she is a law student in Columbia University and she loves it. She is generally bright and does her best to help the people around her. Also, she likes to watch Game of Thrones while eating her Maltesers when she has time away from case studies. She’s into working out and boxing when she’s stressed out and it keeps her fit.”

Maxon: "Okay nice. I’ll just say mine then I’ll tell you what I think about your description. Okay. I have mine now. If I were to describe myself in third person, I'd say, his name is Maxon Kyle Harrington. People usually call him Maxon or Max. He has a Architecture degree but he focuses more on his passion, photography. He's pretty good at it and has shot some good landscapes and videos. He's likes reading books by Mitch Albom but not more than biking or running in Florida."
Dominique: "Nice nice. Mitch Albom is pretty good.

Maxon smiles thinking, she probably thinks I'm a cheesy mofo.

Maxon: "Yeah. I think I've read almost all of his books. Anyway, your description. Ummm I found it so funny that your nicknames are so different and so much shorter than your real name. Hahaha I'll call you Dom, if that's okay. I applaud you for taking up law, that's pretty damn impressive but I'm more impressed that you still get to sneak in GoT in your schedule. P.S. Look for me when you're stressed, I need a gym buddy. Bran's useless AF.

Dominique laughs.

Dominique:"Sure thing. Nat's the same."

They shared a look of mischief, knowing Brandon and Natalia couldn't react or they'd have to edit the video more than they should. Maxon even dared to sneak a cheeky wink.
Dominique: "I like Maxon more than Max. I'll call you Maxon. You're a photographer. Wow. (mumbles) You look more like a model though."

Maxon: "Sorry? I didn't quite catch that."

Dominique: "It's not important. You should show me some of your photos after this. Mitch Albom is really good. The books just activate the waterworks. My favorite one is The Five People You Meet in Heaven. Like, damn. Anyway, you're from Florida? That's so cool. You're so near the amusement parks and stuff. The weather must be beautiful."

Maxon: "Hahaha you're cute. Yeah but I wanted to try somewhere colder and actually experience the four seasons. New York's just beautiful. I just miss Florida sun sometimes but other than that, I'm ready to be a Yankee."

Max shouts at Bran: Cut that last bit out. I sounded so tourist in that. Jesus Christ."
