Ethan and Henry plus Noah who would occasionally add ideas to the song had finished conversing with one another about the song.
Henry immediately started working. The song wasn't that hard to edit since it only required a small amount of effort especially due to Henry's past experiences.
While Henry was busy, Noah booked a photographer for Ethan's record singles cover. Ethan was also happy with Noah's initiative. They already finished recording in the morning, and in the afternoon it was time for Ethan's photoshoot.
"It's your first time doing a photoshoot right?" Noah asked trying to make small talk with Ethan.
"Yeah, never been to one," Ethan replied.
"I'm sure the photos would turn out great, especially since you are good at all angles." Noah complimented and added. "The photographer is a friend of mine from college, I asked him a favor and he agreed. Luckily I can use the college friend card." Noah said.
Ethan found out that Noah was not only his Music Agent but also the owner of the company aka the CEO of StarStruck. But it didn't bother Ethan at all, since he knew the financial situation of this new company.
"I have a question, why did you name the company StarStruck?" Ethan asked curiously.
"Oh, well it's an embarrassing reason but..." Noah with a hint of embarrassment in his tone said.
"I'll listen, I'm curious as to where you had the idea of naming your company StarStruck," Ethan said.
"Well...when I was a kid my father used to take me to these concerts in my hometown, we would sneak out from my mother's grasp at 9 pm." Noah smiled and continued. "I became a music enthusiast due to my dad."
"When I was 10 years old there was this huge concert, and a power shortage almost stopped the performance...but in the midst of that, my favorite singer Edward Garner took on the stage, held his mic, and sang!" Noah said with worship in his tone.
"Without instruments, without the flashy smokescreen, he just sang!" Noah chuckled and continued. "He was wearing a flashy white costume with stars as its design, and I was just struck! The moon and the stars and his costume made him illuminate in the dark, and that's where I got the company of the name, short, I was StarStrucked.." Noah with a smile said.
Hearing the explanation, Ethan could see and feel Noah a person who truly loves music.
Ethan rested his head as he glanced at the bustling streets.
After a few minutes, they finally arrived.
"The studio is on the second floor, so let's go!" Noah excitedly said leading Ethan to the second floor.
"You arrived, Noah!" On the door was a man wearing a skirt with long hair and a goatee. "So this is your star, come in, come in!"
"Thanks for this Yosef," Noah said which earned a smile from Yosef.
"No worries, what are friends for? So my assistant here can help your star get ready for the photoshoot!" Yosef called out his assistant and led Ethan to the wardrobe.
"A sad lonely man wouldn't be good to describe you, so let's go with a cool and yet sad and lonely guy." The assistant said and began picking clothes from the huge wardrobe. After picking some clothes, the assistant gave it to Ethan for him to change into.
Ethan followed the instructions immediately, after finishing putting on the clothes, Ethan walked out of the wardrobe.
"Mama Mia! Good! Amazing! This is giving me the bad boy cool and yet sad lonely guy! Good, good, I knew I could count on my assistant!" Yosef said and held his camera. "Now just stand here and I'll take a few shots ok?"
"Ok.." Ethan replied.
Ethan was wearing a fluffy black leather jacket, his nipples were completely exposed. He wore black tight pants made of leather and a belt with spikes on them, followed by his black boots and socks, his accessories were a choker for his neck and two black earrings. The assistant also put a little bit of makeup on him.
"Now pose for the camera! Just do anything that you feel you are comfortable with." Yosef said
While Ethan was completely rigid with his body.
"Hah, this won't do.." Yosef sighed, he looked at all the shots he had taken of Ethan. Some were rigid, some were disproportional, and some didn't exclude the aura Yosef wanted.
Yosef tried helping Ethan and taught him many poses, but Yosef was not satisfied with the results.
[A new field has been found!]
[Model: Current Progress 2%]
[Charm: C-]
'A new field?' Ethan thought glancing at the new notification the system sent him.
[Current Objective: Become a Singer!]
[Although the Objective is set, the host can train or enhance other fields that have been unlocked]
[Due to unlocking a new field, the host has been gifted! a passive trait!]
[Passive Trait: Elven's Breathing]
[Description: A trait that allows the host to increase his overall charm through absorbing particles from air!]
'A passive..' Ethan's body suddenly felt light, his breathing became clearer and the scent of nature filled his nostrils. His eyes became clearer and his skin became soft and smooth all of a sudden.
"Anyways you just do that, were you listening Ethan?" Yosef asked, he glanced at Ethan. Then all of a sudden he felt as if there was something that changed, the color of the makeup plus the clothing didn't match Ethan. The gloomy and mysterious aura disappeared leaving a calm relaxing aura excluding from Ethan's body.
"Can we start all over again?" Ethan asked.
"Yes....Not just your makeup but also your clothes.." Yosef flicked his hands and his assistant pushed Ethan inside the wardrobe once more.
As Ethan came out, he was now wearing a white polo shirt, beige pants, and a pair of white high-cut shoes, his hair had been parted on the side, the earrings were removed, and the accessories Ethan held were a watch and a pair of black shades.
"Now this suits you!" Yosef excitedly said as he began teaching Ethan a few poses.
"Like this?" Ethan asked.
"Yes! More, now move to your left!" Yosef's smile grew wider, at first, Ethan was rigid and didn't even know how to pose, but this time, just Ethan holding his shades or his wrist became a masterpiece.
Every movement showcased poise and grace. This made Yosef excited that a newbie excluded the aura a professional model would offer.
"Noah look at these shots I took." Yosef showed the photos of Ethan.
"Those are all amazing! Thank you, Yosef!" Noah delightfully said.
"Of course since I'm the one who took the photo, but...I have to say that your star over there has a talent for modeling, his charm, and that aura excluding from his body is something else." Yosef whispered to Noah.
Hearing the praise from his friend made Noah smile and nod in response.
Cheer me up with stones!...
