Mia's POV:
Costume Design Studio
"Okay, what's so 'important' that you had interrupt my day off?" I ask as I was into Kevin's office. I might joke around a little when I said that, but it does actually anger me a little.
I wanted to workout a little in the morning before I went to see my mom, and then I was going to chill and watch tv until it was time to get ready for my date. But I guess Kevin had other ideas.
"Okay, there's been a last minute script change and we're going bring J.A.R.V.I.S to life." He says. I am quite surprised, when I thought about it I have no idea how they're going to do it though.
"Yeah, of course that is pretty important." I reply after processing the news.
"Yeah, so I have an amended script for you to read and then Paul will be with you in 2 hours." 2 hours! How does he expect me to get through all of this dialogue in 2 hours. I guess I'm going to have to work really hard to get this done, because I know filming starts soon so all of the costumes need to be done and fitted.
He leaves my office and I basically scramble to get my work done. As I'm reading, I'm constantly thinking of ways I can make this character seem as if he's still an AI despite changing form. Taking the script doesn't take as long as I thought it would. Towards the end of the script I notice he has a urge to be with Wanda and I'm just thinking of the possibilities of what could happen if the devs wanted to bring the characters together romantically. And after initially being sceptical about the whole thing, am actually on board with the whole thing.
Personally, I don't think that this movie is going to live up to the hype that the first movie got. I just think that the scale of the first was much bigger, and the hype behind that movie was incredible. Before I know it, I get a knock on my door, pulling me out of my reverie.
I get up from my chair and go to answer the person at my door, who I soon find out is Mr Bettany.
"Mrs. Langley, it's a pleasure to finally meet you, I've heard great things!" He says very enthusiastically as I invite him into my office. He's a very tall man who, I've heard, has a heart of gold. But even speaking to him for all of three seconds, I can tell he's a lover.
"Wow, people speak of me at all?" I ask, pulling a puzzled look as the friendly blonde sits in the chair facing my desk.
"Of course, I've heard how much you love your job, and how you sacrificed your day off to be here." He says and flashes me a bright white smile.
"Who told you that?" I ask, matching his smile. I just instantly feel relaxed when I'm around him. I forget about the stress and the pressure that I had to had designed Paul's suit by the end of the day.
"That would be snitching, and snitches end up in ditches." He laughs and I join him. I always thought the phrase was 'snitches get stitches' but maybe it's a British thing.
"Remind me not to spill any of your secrets." I laugh, continuing the joke.
"Ahahah, I like you. For you I might make an exception." He replies, his words laced with that heavy London accent that he carries. It's very elegant and I can respect the queens English, even being part Russian.
"Wow, I feel so special. Do you give everyone you like the exception?" I ask.
"Just the special ones. The ones I really like." He laughs.
We stand up from our seats and take the spot so I can measure him. I do it as quickly and efficiently as possible, while constantly checking the time so I'm on schedule to make my date at 5:00. It's been on my mind all day. And although I'm excited in anticipation, I find myself thinking about Elizabeth and how she would feel. I think I should maybe clear the air with her, seeing as the last time we spoke she confessed that she never stopped loving me, and now I've got a date with an old friend.
