You wake up the next morning in Helena's bed. She's still asleep, and the sunlight streaming through the windows dances on her face, making her look even more ethereal. You want to lay next to her all day, memorizing each little crease in her face. You fight the temptation to touch her face, knowing it would wake her up. After a few minutes, you finally give in, stroking her cheek. Her eyelids flutter, and her mouth forms into a small smile.
"Morning, beautiful," you say softly, letting her adjust to the light.
"We're you watching me sleep?" she asks with an adorable pout.
"Yes I was. You're nice to look at".
"Not in the morning," she said.
"How would you know?" you banter. She smiling, stretching out.
"I wish we could stay here all day. I'm so tired," she complained.
"Me too. Maybe if you didn't top me half the night..." you begin, but she cuts you off.
"Hey, you weren't complaining one bit".
"That's true. At least we'll be at work together".
"I know. We have a bit of time, though," she said, pulling you by the waist onto her.
"Hellie, you're an award-winning actress so if you're late they'll wait for you. But what if they fire me for being late?" She laughed.
"They won't. I'll make sure of it". She kissed your smiling lips delicately, her soft lips perfect against yours.
"Fine," you said in between kisses, "we can be a little late".
"So, we're telling them?" you confirm. You and Helena are about to walk into work, your first time going in together since you started dating.
"Yes, we're telling them. They'll be happy for us! If not, then I don't want to work with them on this movie," she said surely.
"I like that attitude. Let's go," you took her hand and walked with her inside. A few people said hi as you walked in, mostly to Helena.
"Attention everyone please," she called once you had gotten to the offstage area where the rest of the cast and crew were standing, "I have an announcement. You all know y/n, right?" You blushed in embarrassment and a few people waved and said hi.
"Hi," you called meekly.
"I would just like to make it known to everyone here that we are dating. We got together a couple of weeks ago, thanks to filming. We decided that we didn't want to hide anything". People seem pretty surprised, which makes sense. Helena was supposedly "straight" her whole life.
"Congrats," said the director. He actually didn't seem to care as much as you thought.
"Thank you! We're very happy," you say, leaning into Helena.
"Great...well you guys are late already so we should get started," he turned away back to his chair. After a little while in hair and makeup, you're done and ready for the scene. You're bittersweet since this is your final time filming, other than reshoots. Of course, you'll still go to watch Helena since she still has more scenes to film, but it's your first real movie, so it'll always have a place in your heart. In this final scene, Helena's character decided that she needs to leave her home and her husband to go out and find her passions. She's saying goodbye to everyone in the house, including your character, a maid. Your goodbye is supposed to be especially heartfelt because it's also an apology for when she threw the tea tray at you. Filming goes really well, and you can't stop being in awe about your girlfriend's talent. She's amazing, and she floats in and out of character so naturally. You felt you did well too, easily reprising your role and really getting into the lines given to you.
"Good work, love," she tells you when you finish the scene. She pulls you into a hug, and the director calls for lunch. You and Helena walk outside to the food truck. The producer comes up behind you on the line, and you've never liked him. He gave you a weird vibe.
"Didn't know you were gay, Helena," he said bluntly. She took a breath before turning around.
"Honestly, me neither, Carl," she joked.
"Gotta make sure this doesn't impact your acting".
"We just filmed our scene, just fine I thought".
"Better than fine," you but in. She smiles.
"You're letting down a whole group of men," he jeered.
"Fuck you!" you yelled. Helena put a hand on you to calm you down, they turned back to him.
"Life is full of disappointments isn't it?" she said. She grabbed a hold on to your hand you walked into her trailer.
"You got intense!" she said, laughing.
"How dare he? No one fucks with my baby," you say protectively. She smiles, and pulls you into a kiss. You wrap your arms around her neck, pushing your body harder against hers. She tasted sweet, and you kissed her as if trying to get every bit of pleasure out of her. You begin to unbutton her dress, before heading a knock on the door.
"Damn it," she whispered, her voice breathless and really sexy.
"Back on set in two minutes!" the person calls from outside her trailer.
"You better come here with me every day," she said as you walked outside.
"Only for making out with you in the trailer, I will," you joked.
