Adam Talley has made himself quite the name as an actor. As well as a reputation of a charmer in the lady department. And although he loves his job, a normal evening with friends still makes him the happiest. Even more so, when he first lays his eye...
"FUCK YOU! DID YOU REALLY THINK I WOULDN'T NOTICE??"
I yelled at the screen.
"...that you just screwed some random guy, you've been abandoning me for all fucking night!" I said now lighter but still with anger in my voice.
"You are the worst human being I ever came across!" My chest was heaving now.
"Great work Adam!" The casting director said on the other line and clapped for me.
"Thank you! Glad, you liked it" I replied, now only coming down from my pretend anger.
"I personally think you'd be perfect for the role. I of course still have to discuss this with the producers but I think you have very good chances to get it!"
"Wow...thank you so much, it'd be an honor, really!" I said excitedly.
The movie I just auditioned for is going to be "the next big star-cast motion picture project" according to my manager, Sarah.
I actually planned on taking a break from acting. To spend more time around London for a while and relax. Since I didn't have a real break in almost ten years. Having been pushed from one set to another since I was 18 was exhausting. And it was only recently that made me realize of how many nice parts of a "normal" life I've missed. But Sarah has just too much persuasive power. So naturally I did what makes her happy.
"You can expect to hear from us through your management in about the next 2 to 3 weeks...I would want to send you the script already so you can get familiar with the storyline...Thank you, that was it for today then."
The casting woman on my screen said. She must be somewhat in her 50s I thought, never having worked with her before. But her big black glasses and bleached hair made her look much younger and so LA-ish, you could sense it from miles away.
"Great, looking forward to it!" I replied and said my goodbyes, hanging up the facetime call.
I decided this is a good day. I was somewhat productive, the sun peaked out slightly and I was going to see Adeline again today. This would be the third time in a matter of three days we were going out. Yesterday we wandered through Hyde Park with coffee in our hands and made out behind a tree near f the swans that were swimming in the pond. Butterflies erupted in my stomach at just the thought of her so sometimes I was happy this romance is taking place in London instead of LA. All my mates there would just make fun of my sappiness.
As the evening approached I drove up to Brixton to pick her up in my BMW. I was going to take her to a restaurant in town, that has a an amazing view over the whole city.
I pulled up in front of her house and just when I began texting her, I caught Jimmy on the sidewalk.
"Hey mate, come in, I have some sweets!" I said to him after I opened the window.
"Ugh fuck! You scared me you creep! What are you doing here? Picking up Adeline?"
"Yeah!" I said grinning.
"And you...visiting Nora huh?"
"Mhm..." Jim answered grinning just as widely as he leaned over the door of the car.
"A lovely night to you two then!"
"Likewise!" He said and just as he got into the building, Adeline came out. She wore a sexy black dress that made me have to swallow.

She got into the car and gave me a peck.
"Hello madam, where are you going tonight?" I joked and licked my lips.
"Hmm...could ask you the same." Adeline said jokingly.
I chuckled shyly and asked: "Should we get going?"
"Absolutely!" She said happily and I started driving.
"Hey, I just saw Jimmy...I guess Nora is back home?"
"She is, came back last night -absolutely fucked may I mention and now they are up in our flat. I'm so not getting any sleep tonight!" She complained. Their little romance has been absolutely entertaining for us the past three days.
"Could always come back to mine..." I answered, coughing. I was afraid I overstepped a line now but ugh that dress...
Adeline just looked at me and had the biggest smile on her face I have ever seen.
During the drive we talked about our days, hers as usually much more packed than mine.
I, for some reason, spared out the detail with the audition. I think it was because I subconsciously didn't want to make our relationship complicated before it even started.
As we arrived I knew I made the right choice as her face gleamed with the city lights in her face as she adored the skyline.
We chatted over dinner and as usually there is not one second of silence. We just link in some way. When we are together we are always laughing, one is telling a nice story or an absurd detail about their day and we crack up. The food was nice and she seemed to enjoy it as well. Even if she asked me countless questions about weird food terms on the menu before ordering, I couldn't answer either.
It was never awkward or uncomfortable. In her near I just felt save. It was somewhat crazy, we haven't even known one another for a week, hell when we first met she declined my offer to go out with me. Now it has become almost a habit.
Once we are done dining we go back to my car and almost as I thought I'm just going to drive her home, pretending I don't desperately want her tangled between my sheets, she spoke:
"So... your place?" with her eyebrows raised up.
I tried to hide my smile and instead said:
"Your wish is my command!" and started driving to my house.
"Like...where do you even live I've never been at yours before." She asked while we were passing through the streets.
"Wait...wait let me guess uhmm...So I'm sure it screams "posh" so I'd say Chelsea?" I gave no response. "Westminster?" I shook my head. "Knightsbridge?!"
"You got me it's in Knightsbridge!" I admitted chuckling lightly.
"Ha!" She screamed.
We arrive and I park my car in front of my house.

I take her hand and lead her in behind me. We are now standing in the kitchen as I prepare two glasses of white wine for us. She drinks about two sips, her red lipstick left a stain on her glass and soon enough we start making out again.
Kissing Adeline felt like nothing else in this world. Shock waves spread through my whole body and all surroundings seemed to be spinning suddenly. As our lips and tongue met over and over again my desire for her seemed insatiable and I felt all of my blood traveling downwards way too fast.
She jumped, her legs flung around my body, I halt her up and started bringing us upstairs to my bedroom. The way up was a bit wonky and I had to do multiple stops to press her against the wall and kiss her even deeper on the way.
I got more and more turned on in each second that passed. When we arrive I lay her down gently on my bed and took off my dress shirt, looking down at her naked frame.
