Y'all, just look at this picture of Hellie. AAAH, so gorgeous, I can't.

Okey, this one is a Helena one shot, instead of one of her characters. There is a reference to one of my other one shots in this one x)

Take in mind that this is in a universe where Corona doesn't or has ever existed. Also, y/n is around 25 in this.

Let's get into it! ; )

_______________________________

Finally, some peace and quiet. Ever since my last movie got released, I've not had a quiet moment. I guess that's the small price one have to pay for the gift of fame. The movie hit top numbers in only weeks, raising my net worth and actor/ess standing.

Simon, my manager, had advised me on taking some time to myself, resulting in him recommending Lillie's cafe at the corner.

This cafe is the only place where I can sit without being disturbed. I don't mind people, but it can get too much sometimes. At least now I can continue this book.

Dracula by Bram Stoker, Chapter 3 (You can skip this part if you want, it's not mandatory to the story)

When I found that I was a prisoner a sort of wild feeling came over me. I rushed up and down the stairs, trying every door and peering out of every window I could find, but after a little the conviction of my helplessness overpowered all other feelings.

When I look back after a few hours I think I must have been mad for the time, for I behaved much as a rat does in a trap. When, however, the conviction had come to me that I was helpless I sat down quietly, as quietly as I have ever done anything in my life, and began to think over what was best to be done.

(Fun fact, I'm currently reading this book, but it's hard)

I get interrupted by a lady approaching my table. As I looked up from the book I was met with gorgeous brown eyes. I had already ordered a few minutes ago, but this wasn't some waiter. This was a real lady. She had a beautiful yellow dress on and this greenish fur on her shoulder. I felt oddly under-dressed in front of her.

"I'm sorry if I'm interrupting something, is this seat taken?"

I was a little speechless, I had seen the woman before, but from where?

"Oh, not at all, do sit down."

The situation confused me a little. Who was this beautiful woman, and what did she want from me? (Like we wouldn't know who Helena is?) She sat herself down in a chair opposite from me. The way she could look so elegant, yet comfortable in a way. She placed the fur on a chair close by, leaving it for the world to watch over.

Funny enough, the place was crowded, yet no one seemed to have detected her entering. How could you not? She noticed the dazed look in my eyes and smiled to herself.

"I've wanted to get in touch with you for quite a while actually. It was quite hard to find you though, you like to hide" She reached forward with a victorious smile on her face. Get in touch with me? Who was this lady, and how did she find me? I took her hand as a sign of approval. She had a few rings on her fingers, yet none of them resembled an engagement ring. Was she single? Geez y/n, you met her two second ago and you're already wondering if she's single?

"I'm Helena, Helena Bonham Carter." I froze. That's where I had seen seen her from! Oh god, don't panic. I regained composure. "Y/n y/l/n, but you already know that, since you went through all this trouble." She smiled at the recognition. "I wanted to get in contact with you in topic of a job, if you'd be interested that is." I raised my eyebrows. Helena Bonham Carter wanted to work with me!? Okey, chill..
