Let me in. (Robert Downey Jr Fanfic) Complete

10. Jealousy? (Edited)

*Roberts' POV*

We sat in my car, heading to Rich Pictures where I'll have to sit at the directors' table and judge auditions since I'm the leading role in the movie. Emilia will be holding her second testing as well. I have complete faith in her. She was incredible during her audition and she didn't even know how good she actually is. I really wanted to be closer to her. I wanted her to trust me, to accept me as a person in her life. I don't understand why I'm feeling such a strong urge to be close to her. It's messing with my mind but I need to start controlling myself around her. I need to give it more time. She was completely honest with me and I need to respect that and I'm completely fine with it, as long as she won't push me away or anything. Maybe it's for the best that we should start off as simply friends. She seems to have a big history hidden inside her. Well, that's what I came to conclude because there seems to be so much more to her than meets the eye. We didn't spoke on the ride to RP. She didn't seem to mind though and I didn't either, as long as I could be with her. We walked up to the reception desk.

"Well, I have to go meet up with Adam. So I'll see you later till it's your turn."

"O-ok..." She said while twirling her fingers.

"You alright?"

She sighed. "It's just... the nerves are getting to me. I'm not sure about this anymore. I have a feeling that I'll just be making a fool out of myself." She said in a silent voice.

"Hey, look at me. You'll be amazing. I just know it! I have complete faith in you. The things you were able to pull off at your audition without a head start like everyone else?! Believe me when I say that you're incredible Emilia."

"Thanks Robert..."

I stepped closer and hugged her. It just seemed like the right thing to do. I was so happy when I felt her putting her arms around my waist. She took a deep breath.

"Thank you. I really needed that." She whispered with her head on my chest.

"Anytime." I whispered back.

"I think it's time for a break." Adam suggested.

Five girls had already done their tests. Emilia wasn't one of them. I wonder how she's doing. I hope she isn't stressing too much. Maybe I should go and see how she's doing.

"Yeah, that's fine by me." I said.

I got up to go and look for Emilia. I walked in the room where the girls were waiting till it was their turn. There were still four girls left. I saw Emilia staring out of the window and started walking towards her but one of the girls blocked my way.

"Hi!" She said extremely cheery.

"Hey." I just simply responded.

"I'd just wanted to say that I'm a huge fan and that I'm really looking forward till it's my turn." She winked.

"Thank you, that means a lot and aren't you nervous?" I asked, being polite, because I actually didn't care about going into a conversation with her.

"Naah..." She twirled a lock of her hair. "I know I'll be alright." She then grabbed my forearm. "After all, I'll have you there to guide me through it won't I?" She took a step closer to me and I looked over to Emilia. As I looked her way I saw her looking away. Was she looking at us?

"I'll be sure to help you out where I can." I said kindly.

"Thanks Robert and maybeeee...?"

"Maybe what?" I started to feel a bit agitated.
