Flos schedule had gotten pretty hectic as of late, she was spending a lot of time at readings, costume fittings and rehearsals which want in turn she was spending spending a lot of time with Zach. Hari had been so focused on training she hadn't noticed just how much time.
Hari had been running drills since 8am.
"Hey chief, can we go now? We've been at this for like 7 hours I think we have it"
"Oh crap guys is that the time yeah course you can go I expect you all in at 7am tonorrow"
Hari gathers her stuff to leave.
"Hey a few of us are gonna grab a few beers if you wanted to come?"
Hari turned to see Lexi stood there.
"Oh sorry I'd love you but I feel I haven't seen my girlfriend in weeks I'm gonna go surprise her at work"
"Oh ok well maybe next time here" She handed Hari a piece of paper.
"If you change your mind text me, we're gonna be at McCauleys.
Hari took the paper hesitantly
"Sure will do" Hari flung her bag over her shoulder as she left.Flo was in the middle of rehearsals, Zach had just called cut.
"Florence can ypu come over here please"
Flo huffs out as she makes her way over
"What's up"
"Ok this scene I really need you to give it your all. you love this guy. I wanna see that"
"Tom can you come over here"
Her scene partner and on screen boyfriend ran over.
"Right let's try that kiss again please" Zach instructed.
The two kissed "No no. More passion please"
The two retry Zach shakes his head as he pinches the top of his nose."No ok like this" Zach grabss Flo by the waist and wraps his arms all the way around her pulling her flush to his body "Like this. Kiss her like its the last thing you'll ever do"
Zach stares into Flo eyes as he leans in.Hari walks onto set to be greeted by Zach leaning in to kiss her girlfriend.
Her whole body stopped. She couldn't breathe or see anything but the two of them. Her whole world came crashing down.
Her bag fell to the floor causing everyone to look up.
Flo pushed Zach off her immediately.
All Hari could do was stop and stare at her. She was broken.
"No baby.... that wasn't.." before Flo could finish her sentence Hari ran outside.
Hari sat on a bench outside as Flo ran and crouched in front of her.
"Please let me explain, he was telling us what he wanted us to do that was not him trying anything he just"
"But why did he have to..have his hands on you why was he" Hari covered her eyes with her hands as she shook her head.
Flo encased her hand around Haris head.
"It was just acting, it's my job, how can you have an issue with it now?"
"I never usually have to see it, someone else with their hands all over you" Hari let out a sigh as she stood up.
"I gotta go"
"What? No were talking about this!" Flo demanded.
"I'm gonna grab a drink with a few of the guys I'll see you at home"
Flo watched as she left. What could she do this was her job?
Her eyes started to swell with tears in the corners as she went home. She hated fighting with Hari, it broke her heart but this was her livelihood she couldn't change that.
She needed Hari to understand that.
Flo decided to go meet with some friends take her mind of things.Hari was met a the pub by the guys yelling across the bar as she entered. She gently waved as she'd her way to the bar. Lexi ran over to her and engulfed her in a hug
"I'm so glad you came"
Lexi was always so cheery and you couldn't help but feel happy in her presence however it was very apparent even to Hari that she fancied her so Hari was very careful around her.
"Yeah well, I needed a drink"
"Everything ok?"
Hari looked at Lexi and smiled gently as she nodded.
Hari ordered a beer as she made her way to the group Lexi took her by the arm as she led her over.
"What's up Hunter" Max the self proclaiming Joey Tribbiani of the group asks.
"Yeah Man im alright"
"Tell your face that you look like you've been smacked where's that smoking hot girlfriend of yours?"
Hari chokes on her beer slightly "Excuse me?"
"Sorry dude but cmon"
Hari smiles slightly but nod in agreement.
"We had a bit of a fight so I'd rather not talk about her right now"
Lexi rubs Hari's thigh gently.
Hari takes Lexis hand off her thigh and gently pats it and she places it back on her own thigh.
The group are all very consoling as Hari nods her head in appreciation.
"Cheers guys. So what's been happening here?.
"Well Max has been trying to work out the best way to speak to those two" Lexi points to two girl stood by the bar.
Hari looked over
",OK well to start with their both gay so.. might wanna pick a new target my boy!"
Max laughed "Yeah right"
"I'm serious. Bet you 10 bucks"
"Alright your on"
Max walks over to the two girls.
After a brief discussion he returns and slumps back in his seat.
"Well?" Hari asked with a meal grin on her face.
"Yeah OK you were right"
Max hands over 10 dollars. "How did you know?"
"I slept with one of them years ago" Hari snatches the money.3 hours later Hari was pretty buzzed as she walked through the door to her apartment. The apartment was dark and silent. She assumed Flo was asleep in bed as she went about her nightly routine. As she entered the bedroom she walked in silently only to be greeted with nothing. She decided to shower and go to sleep.
Around 12am Flo walks into their apartment. Flo was less careful upon entering. Her keys were thrown through the air. As she entered and went into her bedroom where she found Hari sleeping. Flo sat on the bed as she fumbled trying to get changed. Her movements had prompted Hari to wake up.
"Oh jeez I'm sorrry go back to sleep" Flo slurred as she tried to take her top off.
Hari as much as she wanted to be mad at her she couldn't. Hari stood from the bed and walked up to her girlfriend.
"Need help?" Flo nods with her arms and head both stuck in her top. Hari helped pull her top off as she helped her get into bed.
"My jeansssss" Flo says as her head fall back om the pillow.
Hari undoes her jeans and takes them off her.
Hari walks to her chest of drawers and pulls out a top for Flo. She walks back over an sits down next to her as she lifts her up to slip the t shirt over her head. Flo throws her hands around Hari.
"I love you" Flo slips out before she lies back down.
Hari smiles gently.
She gets up and covers her with the blanket as she leans down to kiss her head.
"I love you too"
Hari made her way back to he ride of the bed where she lay back as soon as Flo felt the shift she rolled to her side and cuddled all the way into Hari.
"I'm sorry" Flo said lightly muffled as her head was buriedin Hari's³ chest.
"You have nothing to be sorry for.
I need to stop projecting my issues onto you"
Hari rubbed Flos back.
"Let's talk about this tomorrow"
Hari kissed Flo gently as they went to sleep.
