It was the first day of filming Mamma Mia, Julie arrived the first, then Christine and later Meryl and Amanda.
The boys were already there trying to dress up with their costume for the marriage scene. Suddenly, Meryl saw Pierce who was trying to put his tie, he was here, the sunlight was lighting up his face, he was so sexy in his white costume. Meryl decided to help him:- Hi! Do you need some help ??
Pierce turned around and saw Meryl with all her bags and suitcases.
He thought that she had too much things and that she could stay in Greece forever but anyway, all the women are like that and he knows it.
"I think i'm going to help you first"Pierce took Meryl to a beautiful bedroom, the walls were blue, a reminder of the beautiful color of the sea. On the wall, there were some paintings of famous Greek painters. On the left, there was a little wood desk and beside was a king size bed.
« Thank you Pierce, are all the bedrooms that big ? » Meryl giggled looking at him
« Mine is a little bigger than yours, you can come to see it when you want, it's right beside yours »
« Oh yes I will, can I come after the little party Phyllida orgarnised ? »
« Yes of course, well now I will let you unpack, see you tonight »Meryl was happy to see all of them again but especially Pierce, she had never worked with him but he seemed so kind and she really wanted them to be good friends.
***
After unpacking her things, she remembered that Don told her to call him when she had time so she did
« Hello? » Don immediatly answered
« Hi love, it's me » Meryl said happy to finally hear his voice
« Oh hi darling, I thought you were busy so I didn't call, how was your fly ? »
« Great, it wasn't too long and Amanda was with me. Oh Don I miss you so much, I wish you were here with me » Meryl said sadly
« I wish I was there with you too but don't worry, it's only for 2 or 3 months and I told you that you can call me anytime »
« I know, same goes for you » Meryl heard a knock on her door
« I have to go, they probably need me to prepare the party, call me tonight ? »
« absolutely, have a good time partying! »
« Thanks love, bye » Meryl said ending up the call***
Meryl opened the door
"Oh hi Christine"
"What was taking you so much time to open the door?"
"I was calling Don"
"Oh I see, well now let your lover in peace and come to help us, we need you to install the tables and everything"***
Meryl and Christine exited her room to go outside where all the cast including Pierce were.
She suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder, it was Tom Hanks.
"I see that you are all here, nobody's missing" Tom said smiling
"Well we wouldn't miss an occasion to drink" Meryl laughed
"Of course, it's cool to finally 'work' together even if i'm your boss"
"We will probably have an other opportunity to work together but this time as co-stars.
Oh I have to go, I just heard Christine screaming my name" she giggled
"Yes you better go, see you tonight I will probably come with Rita, I know you like talking together well at least tell the gossips"
"I know she will have lots of gossips, as usual. Well it was nice talking to you but i have to go, bye"***
"AH HERE YOU ARE! I was starting to think that you find a gorgeous Greek man on your way here and left with him" Christine teased
"Not a chance, I was only talking with Tom and he wouldn't let me go" she laughed
"Ouw Meryl, do you have something to tell me"
Meryl started to think that she probably saw how she was looking at Pierce but then realized she was talking about Tom
"What are you saying of course not, I'm happily married and he is too"
"I was just teasing, don't worry, well now that you're finally here, can you help me? I have to go get all the alcohol"
"Of course but remember, we have to wait to drink" she said laughing
"Meryl!!!! I'm not that bad!" Christine pretended to be shocked at her comment
"Well a little, anyway let's take all that and go to get ready for the party"
" I hope you won't wear a dress too open or the men will look at you all night" she said looking at Meryl's body
"Oh my god Christine, stop, i'm old and they won't even see that i'm here"
"Please, you have the body of a 20 years old and i'm not exagerating, Don is lucky" Meryl started to blush
"You better get drunk soon or i'll kill you if you continue to say things like that"
"Then let's go!"***
After preparing everything for the party, Meryl returned in her room to get ready.
She looked in the blue dressing and thought about the things Christine said about the dress, she thought it was completely stupid and immediatly shutted that thought.
She picked a light blue dress, cream heels and immediatly went in the bathroom to do her makeup.Once she was satisfied with the result she returned in the bedroom to dress up.
'Well you don't look too bad' she said to herself looking in the mirror.
She suddenly heard a knock on her door, wondering who that could be knowing that Julie and Christine were getting ready at the other end of the hotel. She put on some bracelets and a beautiful diamond necklace that Don offered her for their anniversary the year before.
She then went to open the door and was surprised when she saw who was standing there.
"Hi Pierce, what are you doing here?"I hope you like this first chapter and this first story, I will post the 2nd one soon :)
