Way Back When (Elizabeth. O)

【２０】

Elizabeth's POV:

Filming Studio

After my chat with Mia I felt really good about myself. I was happy that we got to be our old selves again, not taking too much seriously. Mia was being sarcastic and I was being... naked. And she claimed to hate it, but I can tell deep down that loved to get back to the way we used to be.

After I left the studio I was a little nervous. I was going to tell her something but it just didn't seem like the right idea.

I was going to tell her that I was seeing someone, and that I would happily leave them to be with her.

But if I told her that I was seeing someone, after the big deal I made about letting someone coming in the way of us being happy, she definitely wouldn't have been happy. And I wasn't going to risk everything I'm working towards go to waste.

I was in a good mood despite almost telling my mistress that she's a mistress. Filming was fun and went surprisingly smoothly. It was fun doing scenes with the whole cast, I had no idea just how much fun being a part of the actual 'Avengers' would be.

It was great, they're all so funny and I've been filming for a day. I was doing some shoots with Aaron and Chris Evans. They decided that they'd start not at the start of the movie, but the parts that were the easiest.

That meant that there was a lot of extra details like scars and bruises and cuts, but the quicker I do my scenes the quicker I can chill and criticise the others for their gags.

It's also really helpful for me as an actress to watch other do their scenes. Although I went to acting school and I've done movie before, the standard was never this high. And there's so much I can learn from these guys, I'm so grateful for this opportunity.

And most importantly, I got the one person that I never wanted to leave in the first place back. When I look back on it, it might have all worked out. Of course I never wanted to leave Mia in the first place, but I did to become an actress. And now I'm an actress, and I'm winning her over. The only way my life could get any better is if I have her already, and I didn't have to work so hard to convince her that I love her.

But what matters most is that she's here, albeit by luck and not judgment.

Anyhow, right now I'm walking back to my trailer when I here someone calling my name. I turn around to see Scarlett running over to me. She looks happy, she has a wide smile and even though she is covering in fake blood and bruises she looks decent.

"Hey, I wanted to know how you're chat went with Mia this morning." She says, a little out of breath from the running she did to catch me.

"How did you know I spoke to Mia?" I ask, still walking to my trailer. It's been a long day and I'm happy that I can finally get off my feet and rest.

"Well I went in after you and needed help with my zipper. But when I asked her she said 'no, not again' and had someone else help me. And the only person to do anything that stupid was Chris and you." She concludes her evaluation by crossing her arms and smiling victoriously.

"Good job Detective Johansson. And yes, I spoke to her. And yes I flashed her." Me and her laugh while we continue to walk back to my trailer.

"She could get fired for that." She says, breaking the silence after a moment.

"Yeah that's what she told me." I laugh again. Scarlett is such a good friend and I'm really glad to have met her, I can just be at ease around her and I love it. She's like a sister to me already.
