When You Meet A Man

Call Me

"Because I'm in a field of dandelions, wishing on every one that.." Beck sang "Dandelions" by Ruth B, ask she walked into her trailer today. She wasn't a fantastic singer but she could carry a tune well & she often did sing to herself. She closed the trailer door behind her and she put her backpack down. She preferred carrying a backpack over a purse or handbag. She took out her water bottles, script and all her necessities for the day. She opened one of her bottles and began drinking while going through today's script. She then whipped out of her own trailer and jumped into the hair and makeup trailer.

"Good Morning Everyone!" Beck said cheerfully, starting her day off well. "Good morning, songbird." James said from his chair. Beck chuckled and apologized, "oh was I a bit loud today? I'm sorry!" James looked up from the newspaper he was reading. "On the contrary I was disappointed you were singing more songs I wanted you to sing." He went back to reading the newspaper. "Well we can work on that." She replied, sitting in one of the chairs in the small waiting area. Diego walked in and sat beside her. "We're going to shoot this backwards right?" He asked Spader. "Yes, hence I'm being covered with blood." James said as Mina worked on the special effects on his face such as blood, cuts and more. "We'll need to get the blast done in one take so we're going to do the after effects first." He continued. Diego nodded and looked down at his phone. James looked up in the mirror and saw Diego on his phone. "Have you ever called anyone on that thing?" He asked. Diego looked up and went "um yeah but I mean I text most of the time." James scoffed and adjusted his mouth a bit before saying, "the younger generation and their phones. Honestly." "I'm 42!?" Diego proclaimed in confusion. "And im 62." James replied turning his head all the way back. "Sit sit." Mina repeated at James turning his head the right back. "Im 24..." Beck said in a quiet voice. "Must be nice to be young again. I'd like to get back there one day." Diego smiled over at Beck. "Only if." James chuckled a bit and then looked in the mirror. "Almost done Jame, you wait." Mina said pointing at him with her left hand while her right hand dabbed a bit more makeup on him. She puts the finishing touches on his fake cuts and then shouts "next" at Diego and I who are sat quite literally 1.5 feet away from her. James gets out of her chair after checking himself out, giving room for someone else's to sit.
"I for one prefer to use my phone as a phone." James said as he groans sitting down on the folding chair Beck just got up from. "And this is why people don't hear from me. I'm not a social media butterfly like everyone else is." He adjusts the paper and he gets back to ready this week's comics.
"And butt for butt stuff, yes?" Mina says smiling at Beck. Spader looks up, raises an eyebrow and chuckles a bit. "Do I even want to know?" He asked looking back at the paper. "That's what she said." Mina said pointing to Beck. Rebecca blurred out with laughter, knowing Mina has no clue about the phrase "that's what she said" but still finding it's context hilarious. "It's not what it seems!" She said in between her laughter. Mina swatted her hands at Beck and said "stop moving now."
"Mina, my dear, you think I could take the paper back to my trailer?" James asked as he folds it up and tucks it under his arm. "Yes, but bring back for lunch." Mina said, still focusing on Beck. "Thank you." He responds as he walks out of the trailer.
Beck quieted down, in fear her loudness might've scared James away. Diego continued to scroll on his phone.
"I'm here Mina, the world is no longer ending." Dana opens the trailer door and grabs some brushes at her station. "Diego come sit, love." She says, calling him over. "I do all the work, you no worry." Mina sarcastically remarks at Dana. The girls look at each other and smirk. "Mina you wish you did half as good a job as I do." Dana replied laughing. "No worry, Beck easy." "Hm?" Beck replied hearing her name. "You easy to do, girly." Mina says smiling down at Beck. "Mmm I feel like this could be taken out of context." Beck smiles up at Mina, then turns to Diego and Dana who are smiling but not saying a thing. "All done, beautiful. You go now." Mina says, putting her brushes away. "Thank you." Beck thanks her and begins walking out of the trailer.
