you're such a simp (Mason thames x OC)

chapter 7

It's the day we begin script reading with the rest of the cast. We get up at the crack of dawn, 5AM. "Mads, get up. It's out first day of work." She groans and throws a pillow at me. "Not my fault we have to get up at the ass crack of dawn, now get up so we have time for breakfast."

I grab her arm and drag her out of bed. "I'm up, I'm up!" She says standing up and going over to her closet to pick out an outfit. "How are you so awake Eves, it's so early." She weakly brushes through her hair, eyelids half open.

"I have to get up at this time alot."
"You poor girl. Sleep is bliss." I chuckle at her response and pic out an outfit. It's gonna be out first day meeting the whole cast in person so I've gotta make an impression. "Mads what do you think, the blue picnic dress, or the white top and the pink shorts?"

"Just wear like, sweatpants and t-shirt. That way you'll be comfortable." I pull a fake offended face at her. "I'm making a good impression. The shorts will do." We both get dressed, and have breakfast before we grab out scripts and leave to do a read through with the cast.

We're the first to arrive to the venue and the director, Scott Derrickson welcomes us and shows us to out trailers. "Holy shit this nice." I say looking at my trailer. It's got my name, my characters name onto he front, then inside I have a living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. "I wouldn't be surprised if like half the budget went into these." I chuckle and Madeleine's response.

"Yo this Evelyn's trailer?" A voice says. We turn and see Miguel. "Holy shit! It's you!" I run up and give him a hug, just as I did with Madeleine when she first arrived. "Jesus christ you look like Jacob from twilight." He laughs and pulls away from the hug. "Where the hell you been loca's?"

We chuckle and then we're interrupted by another voice. "She's cute when she laughs isn't she?" I see Mason leaning against the door frame, arms crossed with his same smirk. He walks over to me and greets me with a kiss. "God I love 7AM kisses." I say wrapping my arms around his neck.

"They've been like this since I got here. They've probably kissed more times in a day than a newly married couple." Mads plops on the couch and leans her head back. "Hey guys, you realise that we have like, 10 minutes until our first script reading?" Miguel says, looking at his watch. "Oh shit yeah, might aswell go now then. I'm not being late on the first day." I say as the four of us walk out together.

We get into the room and see that we each have assigned seats based on our characters, I think because it makes it easier for us all to read with someone we have alot of scenes with. "Oh my god we're all fucked. They've sat Mason and Evelyn together." Madeleine and Miguel have a petrified look on their faces.

"Come on it can't be that bad, they don't seem on top of eachother." Becca says sitting in her seat allocated by Madeleine and Brady. "Oh trust me. By the end of the day you'll wanna gouge your eyes out."

Mason grabs my hand and places a kiss on it, with his eyes not leaving the script in his hand. I smile at the gesture and start reading my script, out hands still intertwined. "See now that's cute, you guys are just single." Becca says pointing in our direction. The others roll their eyes and read their script before we're directed to go practice scenes with partners.

"Practice one of the basement scenes with me Love?" Mason asks me and I agree. We go into one of the practice rooms provided. "Which one do you want to do?" He shows me the page. "Mason Thames, is this an excuse to kiss me, at work?" He's referring to the kiss Lillian and Finney share in the basement, confessing their love for eachother just after killing the grabber. "Maybe, but I also and struggling with like the placing of this scene soooooo..." he trails off.

"Fine, but then we have to practice the other scenes once you get it." He smiles and nods his head like a kid in a candy store. I start at the top of the page.

The scenes

"Holy shit." Lillian looks at the groud  (where the grabber would be). Her eyes looking the corpse up and down, seeing if he is, really dead. Finney gets up from the ground and stands next to the girl he's been trapped with. "Finney, that was..." he expects her to say something like psychotic, twisted, weird. But instead her words are how they usually are. "That was so badass! YEAH YOU HEAR THAT GRABBER, A PAIR OF 13 YEAR OLDS KILLED YOU!"

Finney laughs at the girls response, she was always so bright, so funny. She knew how to make a dark situation turn good. "Lillian?" He says her name as a question. "Yea Fin Fin?" He loves when she uses that nickname. "You know how you've been my best friend for years?" His heart was thumping, little did he know hers was too. He takes her hand and for ones, Lillian has nothing to say. "Lils, I love you. I never been Donna, or any of those other girls. It's always been you. I love YOU Lillian Jenson, more than words can say."

Lillian was speechless, she didn't know what to say, she just stood infront of him, grabbing his hand tighter with a blush plastered across her cheeks. Before she can respond he kisses her, he places a hand to her waist and she wastes no time resting her arms on his shoulders. The kiss was short, and sweet. After their lips part the two are just stood there. Letting what just happened sink in.

"Finney, you have no fucking idea how much I've want you to say that. Fucking hell Robin would have to listen to my ranting everyday." Lillian smiles, not only at the thought her crush has finally kissed her after 3 years of pineing over him, but at the fact that Robin would probably be patting Finney on the back, from the other side.

End of scene

"Andddd scene." I say with a bow, even though Mason is infact the only one there. "You get the scene now Mason?" I ask him placing my script down. "Well I do get most of it, except the confession and kiss..." I playfully hit his arm. "Mason! I know you want to kiss me, believe me I do too, but there's like 250 pages to this thing and we've only done 10 so far." He rolls his eyes and slumps against the wall.

"Look here the deal, every time we get a scene without messing up, I'll give you a kiss, deal." His eyes once again light up. "That can work, that can definitely work for me." I get what Teo meant by eager when he first messaged me. But I've grown to love it.

For what seems like minutes, it's time for our break, we've been practicing school scenes, basement scenes, and Mason's drive sure is strong. "Hey, we should have breakfast just the two of us in your trailer, maybe a bit more kisses could be involved." Mason trails off. My eyes widen at the insinuation he's making. "Mason, you know I do really REALLY like kissing you, but we've gotta get to know the others, if we spend the shorter break alone, we can spend the longer one with the others, deal?" He agrees and we go to spend time with the other cast
