The elevator stopped on the third floor and the two people got off. Marcel noticed all the posters of famous celebrities on the walls of the company. There were music videos playing and various trailers on the available screens on the floor, as if reminding the artists to work hard so that their works can also be shown on those screens.The manager led Marcel to a room and when they opened the door, Marcel was greeted by the sight of Sherry practising her dancing. She was very graceful and light on her feet and he couldn"t help but admire her ability.
Her red hair had been constrained in a messy bun and she was wearing an off-shoulder top with a pair of black short and heels. He noticed that she was practising salsa, a dance he knew of and danced before but had changed a lot over the years so he might as well be a rookie.
He watched her with the manager and even lost track of time because she was such an amazing dancer. Soon enough, she noticed the two men standing on the doorway watching her before she stopped her dancing and meekly greeted them.

The manager raised his eyebrows because she was acting out of character because even though she was normally not very social, she could not be described as submissive. Marcel, on the other hand, thought she was very cute and had the urge to rub her head like he did Liam"s head.
In his time, he would hardly get the opportunity to meet his juniors because it was not necessary to physically be present at the company, he hardly even met the president even though he won awards every year. So he could not stop his smile from surfacing when he looked at how cute she was being.
"Mr Marcel, I"m glad you decided to come," Sherry said softly.
She noticed that when she was overbearing when they met before, his face did not look good. In fact, he did not even know who she was, so being arrogant was just going to be embarra.s.sing. As she looked at his face, it looked like he had even gotten better looking.
"It"s nice to see you again Sherry" Marcel said with a smile.
"Let"s go discuss the contract," Sherry"s manager said after he looked at the two of them strangely and went to sit on one of the plastic chairs on the corner of the room as the two of them followed him.
Marcel received both the script and contract from the manager and went through the script first. It seemed that the song leaned toward the s.e.xy side as he continued to read about the scenes that will be included in the music video.
"Can I listen to the song?" Marcel asked as he was curious about the type of song that would warrant the type of music video they would be shooting.
He wanted to be thorough as he had to act in a male role for the first time. He was not very worried about chemistry because where he was from, the LGBTQ community was very prominent. He had also acted in some movies where he was lovers with women so he did not think it would be awkward when it came to chemistry.
On the other hand, what he was worried about was if he would be able to give a masculine portrayal that was convincing. He watched as Sherry gracefully walked towards the speakers and connected the wire to her phone and played the song.
Soon, her husky voice was heard in the room and he had to admit that it was intoxicating. She had a wonderful voice that would be able to completely captivate her fans.
"The song is very suggestive" Marcel commented as he listened to the lyrics.
Captivated by your lips,
I"ve lost control since you trapped in your arms> the lyrics flowed out of the speakers.
The atmosphere was okay until Marcel mentioned how suggestive the lyrics were and Sherry"s face went red while her manager slightly frowned as he paid attention to them. He had to manage the other three girls so it was difficult for him to be more attentive to Sherry, especially since she was the least popular one of the four girls.
"Did the president hear this?" the manager asked Sherry and received a nod from her.
"And he was okay with it?" the manager asked feeling surprised.
"He was okay with it?" the manager asked and Sherry nodded.
"Really?" he asked disbelievingly.
"I insisted on the theme and even wrote the lyrics. He said that the delivery was great and the contrast from the group image may be advantageous, although there are chances that it could backfire. He also said I should just be confident in my work, otherwise, he can arrange for the company to arrange a song that would fit with the overall group image" Sherry explained.
Marcel couldn"t help but raise his eyebrows in surprise. It was probably the first time he heard of a president of a management company that was accommodating to his artists.
"Will I have to dance?" Marcel asked as he pointed at one of the scenes in the script where he acts as her dancing instructor and Sherry nodded shyly making the manager fl.u.s.tered.
"I"m not very confident with this" Marcel said as he scratched the back of his neck bringing attention to his tattoo.
"Is that real?" Sherry asked and approached him for a closer look. Marcel nodded in response before looking at her manager.
"Will there be an instructor?" He asked the manager and the manager nodded in response.
"As long as the moves won"t be too complex then it should be fine. WHen do you want to start filming?" Marcel asked.
"In a week" Sherry responded.
"So when should we start practising?" Marcel asked her.
"We could even start today, to at least try to gauge your level of dancing" Sherry replied professionally once she was not too entranced by him.
Marcel nodded in response before going through the contract once more and signing it. He handed it to the manager and turned to look at Sherry.
"So where is the instructor?" Marcel asked.
