Emilee Ortega is asked by her father to travel across the country while he films his latest show. She was more than willing to take on this new adventure with her best friend Erynn Champlain at her side. The girls are always up for something new, bu...
We pulled into the parking lot of the studio the boys were filming at. The boys scrambled to get inside before they got yelled at, but Erynn and I took our time entering. We maneuvered through the studio, searching for the set for Julie and the Phantoms when we stumbled upon a dance studio where Owen was speaking with Paul and my dad through a zoom call.
We overheard Dad talking everyone through what they needed to know. Erynn and I decided to go explore the set.

After running around in costumes, Erynn and I returned to the studio, where we sat in a corner watching them run their lines. Before his next line, Owen ran up and stole the orange hat off Erynn's head, "my turn!" He winked at me, walking away and fixing the hat to his head.
The boys began reading the script. Owen licked his lips, adjusting the beanie as he read his line.
"Close your mouth, you'll catch flies," Erynn whispered to me, winking as I lick my lips out of nervousness. Erynn turns back to her leatherbound book in hand, continuing a 'poem' she was working on.
As they were working on a scene between Owen and Booboo Stewart, I heard a glitching noise coming from the speakers. I watched Owen as he continued reciting his words.
"Booboo, are you still with us?" I heard my dad shout through the speakers. Suddenly, a disconnect notification came onto the projector screen that displayed the call.
The tech crew that had come in tried to fix the call, attempting to bring Booboo back. When they were unsuccessful, everyone looked at dad expectantly.
"Is there anyone there that can fill in for Booboo?" He asked, searching his screen. "Ah, my girls are there, ask one of them." My eyes widened, I glanced at Erynn for help.
"Don't look at me, I need to finish writing this," she says without looking up. I sigh, turning back to the group.
"I'll do it." Dad smiled, thanking me as someone handed me a script.
Owen began reading out the conversation from the beginning. I did my best to speak clearly and put emotion into the text, despite not knowing anything about the character I was reading for. I looked over at Erynn for reassurance and that's when I noticed she was gone. Instead, Charlie sat in her seat, reading from her book.
