A/N- I know there has been some stuff going on with Johnny Depp (look it up if you want) so he isn't playing Grindelwald in the third Fantastic Beasts movie, but just to keep things from getting messy, he still is in this story.
"So what have you been up to, Dovie?" Lily-Rose asked from the passenger seat. She knew almost everything I'd been up to since we talk on the phone at least once a week, but it helped to make small talk.
"A lot, actually," I sighed. "Got back from filming in Atlanta around a month ago but I've been doing some ADR here."
"ADR?" Parker asked.
"Oh, it means automated dialogue replacement," I clarified, forgetting he wasn't an actor. "It's when you go into a recording studio to record over lines that didn't get picked up right when you were filming."
"Ohh, right I read about that. I love learning about the behind-the-scenes stuff, it's like my favorite part of seeing new movies."
"Yeah, it's all really interesting," I agreed. "Do you want to go into the entertainment industry when you're older?"
"That's the goal," he nodded. "I've actually written a few short films and one of them was produced and won an award at Sundance." In case you don't know, Sundance is a huge film festival that happens every year in Utah. Very big deal.
"Whoa!" I exclaimed. "That's insane, congratulations."
"Thank you," he smiled humbly. "Anyway, I'm sorry, I interrupted you."
"Oh no, don't worry about it. I was just gonna say I went to the Quiet Place II premiere the other day."
"Oh my gosh, I saw that yesterday, it was terrifying," Marina laughed.
"I know," I chuckled.
"Haven't you been hanging out with that kid from the movie?" Jack asked.
"Yeah, Noah," I answered. I don't know why, but part of me didn't want Parker to know about Noah. Obviously I liked Noah a lot and I wasn't ashamed of it, but I still changed the subject quickly. "So, how did you meet my dad again?"
"Well I do set design for the Fantastic Beasts movies," she explained. My dad plays Grindelwald.
"Oh, no way!" I exclaimed. "Those might be my favorite movies of his."
"Are you a Harry Potter fan?"
"Absolutely. Proud Slytherin."
"Ayy, me too," Parker said. "Not the evil kind, though."
"Yeah, Voldemort really ruined it for all of us," I laughed. "Well that's really cool that you guys met there."
"Also, would you prefer I call you Davina or Dovie?" she asked. I could tell she had been wondering that from the moment I stepped into the car.
"Either," I answered. "My friends usually call me Dovie but my family calls me Davina a lot. I don't know, I answer to both."
"Ok, I'll stick to Davina for now because that's what your dad always calls you when he's telling me about you." I saw Jack look to me in my peripheral vision. As I've mentioned earlier, my Dad is really one of the only ones who always calls me Davina, never Dovie. I have no idea why.
"So where are you guys from?" I asked. I purposely shifted my body slightly toward the back of the car so Parker would answer. I was curious about him.
"Well originally New York but we moved to Santa Barbara a few years ago."
"What part of New York?" I asked.
"Scarsdale, it's a suburb of the city."
"Oh my god, my friend Noah lives there," I gasped. "Noah Schnapp- you know, Will in Stranger Things."
"Oh yeah, I remember seeing that somewhere," he smiled. "I really liked it there but I like it better here."
"Why'd you move?" I asked. It went quiet for just a split second too long before Marina answered,
"It worked better for us with the divorce." Oops. I didn't even think of what happened to her ex-husband.
"Oh yeah," I tried to say casually and quickly. "Well now you don't have to deal with New York snow," I pointed out.
"Very true," Parker nodded. "Winters there are brutal." I smiled at that before looking down at my lap. I don't know why I felt so guilty for finding him cute. It's not like I was flirting with him and Noah and I weren't even official. Still, I couldn't stop imagining what Noah would be thinking if he knew how fascinated I was by Parker. Luckily, Marina started a conversation with Lily-Rose and Jack so I had time to sit in my guilt...At least until I was interrupted my a subtle tap on my shoulder. I turned around and saw Parker looking at me concerned.
"Are you ok?" he whispered so I could barely hear him. I bit my lip and nodded. His face showed that he genuinely cared and he wasn't just asking out of courtesy. Fuck this. I felt my phone buzz in my back pocket and I quickly pulled it out in case it was something important. It was Noah. I quickly put my phone back.Wait, what?
Did I just completely ignore a text from Noah? I paused for a second to process what had happened before taking my phone out again. Parker must have noticed my odd behavior. "You sure you're good?"
"Yeah," I nodded. "You ever check your phone to see what time it is then forget to actually check the time?"
"Oh yeah, all the time," he said, clearly not convinced. Whatever, at least I had an excuse. I then took the time to actually read Noah's text.jupiter
Hollywood Reporter caught us outside my hotel yesterday
It's a cute picture thoughI instinctively opened Instagram to see what picture he was talking about. I didn't even search the Hollywood Reporter instagram account. I simply went to my tagged photos and saw it plastered across my profile: a photo of Noah and I smiling and holding hands in the parking lot.
dovie
sry if u get attacked by everyone who ships me and noah schnapp nowjupiter
Haters gonna hate
I don't care as long as I have youThat was nice of him to say, but I didn't get those butterflies in my stomach like I normally do. What was the matter with me? I looked back at the photo, hoping it would bring back all of those mushy feelings. It half worked. Honestly, I was causing most of the problem in my head. All I did was find another guy cute. I still liked Noah. A lot. Right? Of course, right. I'm sure I would see him tomorrow and forget all about this. Almost on cue, Marina interrupted my overthinking.
"So Davina, any fun plans tomorrow?"
"I'm going to the beach with my friends," I told her. I had texted Jayden and Jules last night about meeting Noah and of course they were more than eager.
"Oh, what beach? We were thinking of going."
"Santa Monica, I think," I answered. Please don't say that's where you're going.
"Oh, ok, I think we're gonna take the drive to Malibu." Thank god. "Well I hope you have fun." Yeah, me too.
