Evelyn Meester, born, raised and working in the spotlight. After landing her dream role in a film called The black phone, she meets a boy and he turns her world upside down.
Time on set has flown by. Miguel, Brady, and Jacob have all left and now the only kids on set are me, Madeleine, Mason and Becca, although Miguel is due to film a flashback they didnt quite finish in a few days. "Then there was four." It was the day after Brady had left and they saw crew taking off his sign off his trailer.
"Y'know we only have 2 weeks left, right?" Madeleine remarks. She's had to start packing already since she's leaving in a month. "Don't get me all sad and shit man, on the last day I'm gonna cry like I always do." I start tearing up and lean my head on Mason's shoulder. "Save the tears for the last day my love."
Me and Mason have to go and film a scene in the basement so we leave the girls to go film. "Perfect timing, we were just about to call you guys." Scott says to us. We get into our basement area for the first phone call.
In scene
Finney and Lillian are sat there. In silence. They were brainstorming ways to get out but they couldn't find a way they were both gonna make it alive. "Fin, I-I think we're gonna die down here, we're gonna fucking die down here." The girl begins to sob and immediately her best friend sits next to her. "Don't you ever say that. We're gonna make it out of here. We'll even get you home in time for that boy Bruce Yamada's baseball game."
"Don't you get it Finney? He's dead, Bruce is dead, Vance is dead, Robin is dead too. We're gonna be just like them." She continues to sob profusely. "Stop that Lils! For fucks sake I'm not letting you say this as if it's decided. You're gonna make it out of here even if I have to die to get you home!" She pauses, looks at him as the tears are still streaming down her face.
"Y-you mean it, you'll get us home." She refused to think of a world where they didn't. "I promise you Lillian." Just then they hear the phone ring. Lillian quickly runs up to it and answers. "Hello, police? Anyone Hey me and my friend finney-" Before she can finish speaking she hears coughing on the other end of the phone. The voice sounding young and almost, familiar.
"Hello?" She repeats to the other end and there's finally a response. "Lillian?" The voice says back to her, she finally recognises the voice. Bruce Yamada. "Bruce? Holy fuck is that you?" Tears once again starts to slowly come out her eyes. Her best friend is bewildered by the situation, the wire on the phone is cut, how can they be hearing Bruce Yamada speaking to them on the other end?
"Hey, fuck why did he take you?" He says as more of a question to himself, Almost as if he could've controlled who the Grabber took. "Bruce where are you?! Your family is worried sick, the whole town is!" A sigh can be heard from the other end of the phone. "I was in there before you. Then he got bored and now I'm..." Lillian and Finney's heart drops.
"No, no you can't be-" She chokes on her words. "I guess we're not getting that ballgame are we?" He chuckles and she chuckles back tears streaming down her face. She didn't know him that long. They had one incounter but she developed a small crush on the boy, and since she was one of the few people to see Bruce last she got to know not only his family pretty well, but the past 16 years of his life.
"Although I love to hear your voice that's not why I called. I started digging a hole underneath a loose floor plate In the section connecting the two rooms. There's two of you so you'll dig double the amount I could've." Finney runs over and swiftly finds the loose floor plate, finding some already dug up mud. "Goodluck." It seems Bruce is about to go but Lillian stops him. "Wait Bruce!" She says and she hears his acknowledgement that he's still there.
"I'm sorry, we never got to see eachother again." He throat feels tight as if she's about to throw up. "It's okay, plus I knew you had a thing for your friend anyway, go to a baseball game with him when you get out of there for me, please." And the line cuts. Her heart ached. She definitely couldn't say she loved Bruce, she had only ever had one conversation with him but what she could tell you is that boy had a kind soul. Who knows what could've happened if he wasn't kidnapped.
End of scene
"God I missed filming that scene! I love acting!" I say. We needed to go over that scene one more time for a few more angles. Hearing tristans voice in character after weeks was odd to say the least. "You were amazing Mason, you're such a good comforting person." He kisses my forehead. "Only for you my love."
As the day draws to a close I have Mason and Becca over. Madeleine is still trying to pack some stuff away. "Everytime I see you pack, my heart breaks a little." I say with my hand dramatically to my chest. "Oh shut up Ev's, you know I'll fly back ready for the premier in June." She continues to fold clothes she'll never wear in LA again. "Well you're leaving in April, that's 2 whole months!" Two months she's not gonna be here. Two months were it's only gonna be video call sleepovers and not in person ones.
"Fuck I'm gonna miss you Mads." I give her the biggest hug ever. She hugs me back and for a while we stand there and embrace. We won't get to hug for two months after she's gone. Just then the doorbell rings. "That'll be them." I answer to see Mason and Becca with snacks and I wellcome them in.
"Ugh it's not fair how close you guys live!" Madeleine comes down the stairs in her fluffy pyjamas and gives them a hug. "Ughh, we're filming a screaming scene tomorrow, my throats gonna hurt so bad." I say making sure there's enough tea to soothe my throat when I get back.
"You complain now but you're gonna miss working with us." Becca says getting popcorn out of my snack drawer. "I am! But we may get jobs together in the future!" I'm hopeful we do, at least if it's only 2 of us we will.
"Evelyn! Can we film this tiktok dance!" She shows me a video and I agree. Our first attempt is awful because we can't stop laughing and it takes 20 minutes to get the video we wanted. Then we film more tiktoks and most of Mason's are with hot cheetos. Sometimes I think he loves them more than me.
A few hours after were all led in mine and Madeleine's beds watching a film. "I'm gonna miss you guys so much." Madeleine says and she cuddles up to Becca. "We're gonna miss you too! I mean it's gonna be hella lonely without you here." I reply to her. I'm not gonna wake up to her and my mom making pancakes soon. I'm not gonna get someone to come home with me from shooting every night.
"Don't get all sappy guys I'm gonna cry!" Becca says and her and Madeleine hug eachother tighter. "Promise to keep in touch when I'm gone." Madeline says between tears. "Promise." The three of us say in unison.
