INTUITIVE, austin butler

7

Another day another dollar.

Or in my case... I don't know I just like that saying.

I slept peacefully, and soundly knowing I would not have to spend my time at set today filming with my little nemesis. I practically skipped into set knowing it would be an easy day that I wouldn't spend arguing with Austin.

I had a scene to film with Jackie and Nicole, which of course took several hours to finalize, but it went extremely smooth. I actually laughed and had fun filming this scene which is a drastic change from how filming yesterday went.

Jackie and Nicole are actually much cooler than I expected. I had met them briefly during my first day on set, but today I actually got to talk to them. It's definitely a change, but it's kind of nice to have friends besides Lana. She's all I've had for basically two years.

It's around five o'clock and filming has finally wrapped for the day. I can finally return to my beautiful white car with my beautiful leather seats that make my butt all nice and warm.

"Riley!" I hear the one and only Tayler yell at me across the parking lot just as I'm about to enter Suede (my car, she has a name, duh).

"Yes, Tayler?" I yell back at him.

Instead of continuing to yell, the little bald man starts to run towards me. "I need you—" He takes a huge huff of air, "God, I smoke too many cigarettes!" He places his hands on his knees, taking another big breath, and standing up to face me. "I need you to get together with Austin tonight and work on scene two. I know you two have probably read through it already, but I'm making a few changes to it, so you may need to run through again." He hands me a script.

Torture. All I hear is that Tayler wants to torture me. Another wonderful day is going to be ruined by Mr. Buttface Butler.

"What kind of changes?" I question him hoping it's only good stuff.

"The lines and setting is identical, I just added a sex scene." The absolute worst thing that could ever come out of his mouth, just came out of his mouth.

"Austin, me..." I try and put the dots together, "Austin, and I... sex scene? Are you sure?"

"I'm perfectly sure!" He exclaims.

"Isn't that a little fast for Jennifer?" I try to persuade him, "She's a calculated woman. Definitely not the hookup type."

"It isn't a hookup, your characters fall in love, Riley."

"Oh, yeah." Acting in love with Austin is going to be the hardest thing I'll ever have to do. "Still, a sex scene already?"

"It works out perfectly with the storyline — you'll see!" He does his little director clap and walks off without letting me try and negotiate more.

I press my head against Suede, my perfect Austin-free day is going to be ruined. And even better yet, we have to rehearse for a sex scene.

My phone buzzers, and to my delight, my beautiful bestie Austin has taken time out of his day to reach out to me.

A: Tayler wants us to rehearse
scene 2 some more.

R: I'm aware.

A: Let's do my place tonight.
Don't want to have to pay
my neighbor to walk my dog.

R: That poor dog.

A: She's perfectly fine.

R: I'll see you and your dog
at 7.
R: Sorry, that sounded gross.
