6 - Plans, Fans, and Pans

A/N: starting now, there with be more frequent updates!

POV Sophie:

"I guess things really didn't go as planned..." Brielle muttered as the group of actors settled into the mansion that was their photo shoot set. After the swarm of a crowd and paparazzi, there was no choice to go anywhere but back to the set. Even the harsh weather was against them, rain constantly pouring and the occasional alert of a flash flood. Though the others seemed to be sad about missing out on the pizza, Sophie was relieved.

"I see that you all are back." Mr. Forkle noted as he organized his already-neat desk. "I am unable to accompany you kids after I finish my duties, so make sure to practice your lines for tomorrow! Keep this mansion clean as well!" As Dex, Biana, Fitz, Brielle, Sophie, and Keefe nodded, Mr. Forkle exited the mansion while his other bodyguards turned on the engine of the limo , driving him to his unknown destination.

"Well we are definitely not going to practice those scripts— " Keefe laughed with a eyebrow raised at the group of actors reaching for their scripts on Mr. Forkle's desk.

"C'mon! We need to practice somehow!" Dex debated. Biana nodded alongside him.

Grrrrrr....

Everyone turned to Sophie. Sophie turned red, clutching her starving stomach. She hadn't eaten dinner yet, and neither did the other actors. "I'll order takeout." Fitz blinked, opening a delivery app on his phone.

"Oh... it's fine." Sophie murmured, face still red.

"Get me a burger." Dex insisted.
"I thought you were a vegan!" Biana jumped and pointed at Dex.
"I'm trying to, I promise!"

Biana forced Dex to get a salad instead, which he was not too pleased about.

"I beg you, please get me ramen." Brielle added. "Make sure to order the vegetable broth version pleaseeee!"

"Since when did I become the person ordering all the food?" Fitz rolled his eyes but chuckled.

"GUYS ! DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE HORROR MOVIE THAT GOT RELEASED YESTERDAY?!" Keefe yelled, eyes wide while scrolling intensely on his phone.

"Well, I heard about the movie, but I don't think I'll be able to hear anything anymore." Fitz winced, covering his ears.

"Exaggerating, much?" Keefe huffed. He turned to the group of friends. "Let's watch it! Pleaseeeeeeeeee?"

—————

It wasn't a good idea. It was true that everyone was scared, besides Sophie of course, however, Keefe was on another spectrum. It was as if he was shivering each second of the horror film. He clutched his fingers. Then, there was Fitz, who covered his face with a pillow, in the occurrence of scary music, held onto whoever was next to him, which was Keefe.

"Fitzy, I know you admire me and my hair and all that, but let go of my arm! I almost thought you were that ghost in the mov-" Keefe began until freezing into an unwavering statue form.

"Keefe?" Brielle and Dex turned in curiosity.

"AHHHHH!" Keefe pointed at the three dark figures that stood in the hall connecting into the living room of Forkle's mansion.

The dark silhouettes surrounding the two figures lengthened to create a long shadows hovering over the friends.

"GET A PAN! QUICK!" Keefe whispered in a shouting manner. Dex slid into the kitchen of the mansion quickly, and handed a cooking pan and a spatula to Keefe and himself. Fitz raised an eyebrow in confusion. Sophie felt uneasy. Who were these people, and what did they want? Keefe looked back at her with his forever sweet eyes that turned cold as he faced the unknown figures who, with the darkness, were impossible to recognize.

"3... 2... 1..." Sophie heard Dex whisper to Keefe. "CHARGE!"

In the midst of darkness, Sophie heard footsteps as Keefe and Dex approached the mysterious figures.

Clang!

"OUCH!" Three unfamiliar voices hollered at the same time, the people who Sophie assumed must have been the people lurking in the hallway.

Sophie and Biana turned on the lights, filling the room with brightness.

Three people sat upright on the floor, scratching their heads and wincing upon the aftermath of being hit by a pan.

Each actor gasped. Those people... who are they?

Keefe dropped the iron pan onto the floor, creating a ringing noise echoing in the room.

"Tam, Linh, and Marella?"
