Deluded// Leonardo DiCaprio *FINISHED*

The premiere

It was the hottest day of the summer so far. I was sweating, my face was pink, and I literally could not wear more than a vest top and shorts. I had been seeing Leo for two months now. I have been seeing Leonardo DiCaprio for two months now. I couldn't get it into my head. He wasn't the romantic type, no matter what you'd think. He's very practical, very controlling, thinks he knows whats best. Well, most of the time he does.

"I want you to come with me to the 'Romeo and Juliet' premiere."

"What?" I said.

"Will you come?" he said, almost pleading me. His eyes were so blue, it was like when they looked at you, they looked deep into your soul, and captured your heart. "Vic, will you come?"

I sighed. "Of course I will." I said at last. He smiled a relieved smile.

********

"I don't know why I agreed to do it." I later told Giliana. "Its only 3 days away and I'm already stressing so much. What would I wear? What if the public and the media hate me?" I rambled on about my stresses and worries while Giliana pretended to care/listen.

"So why did you do it then?" Giliana said in her NYC accent. "Why'd you agree to do it?"

I thought for a moment. "Because if he wants to show me off, introduce me to the public, then he must genuinely like me as much as I like him." I said.

"Plus, 'You only get one life, but if you live it right, one is enough.'" I quoted. "And missing out on an opportunity like this would NOT be living it right!"

********

It was already the day of the London Premiere. We had to be in London and on the red carpet by 8pm, it was 10am and we were only just getting on the plane. I was so nervous.

"So," Leo said. "How old are you?"

"um, 17 why?"

"No no" He laughed. "I know you're 17. But how old do you want to say you are? You can't say you're 17 now can you?"

True... I thought. "21." I decided upon. "No. Almost 21, so you can throw me a big party." I said giggling as I took a bite of my sandwich. Leo laughed and kissed my nose.

"That's good. I like the thought that I'm dating an 'almost-twenty-one-year-old'" Leo joked.

It felt good to be going home. I'm originally from central London but we moved to Bristol when I was 10. Leo told me that he had never been to London, well, not since he was 2, so he couldn't remember.

We arrived in London Heathrow at 5:50pm. I was getting increasingly anxious. "Baby, I have a surprise for you." Leo said as we left the airport.

"Oh yeah?" I said. Before Leo had a chance to reply, he threw my hood up and huddled me in his arms as we were swarmed with camera flashes, screams, things thrown at us. Security circled us and pushed any fans away. It was scary but also really exciting at the same time. Then I thought, If this is how it is in the Heathrow airport car park, then imagine it on the red carpet tonight.

"So," I said in the car. "Whats my surprise?"

"You'll get it now," Leo said, half smiling. "Be patient little girl."

I laughed.

We pulled up outside a large house. I looked at Leo, but he was just looking at the house, smiling. He got out of the car and opened the door for me, and we entered the house.

"Who lives here?" I asked. Leo ignored me. He led me into a room with two women.

"Debbie, June, this is Victoria." Leo said. I shook both their hands and said 'hi'. "These wonderful ladies are going to be your hair and makeup artists." I broke out into a smile.

"For tonight?" I said.

"For the rest of your life," Leo started. "Tonight is going to change everything."

********

I checked my phone. 7:49pm. I looked at myself in the full-length mirror. The ladies dressed me in a long, spaghetti-strapped, black, backless dress, with a slit up the leg. I had bangles up my arm and wore high block heels. The dress made me look fat. I had always had a fat arse, and I hated it, I don't and never have had skinny thighs or a flat stomach, and my boobs are a 38DD. Then I examined my face. At least that looked half-decent. My makeup was done stunningly, and my hair was bubble-permed, long, down my back. I just hope people focus on my face and not my body.

We arrived at the premiere just after 8:10. As soon as the door opened and Leo got out of the car, his name was announced ("And who will come out of this car? Oh my! It's only Leonardo DiCaprio! Wow, he looks fabulous..."), however you could barely hear it over the screams, the fans trying to grab him from behind the barrier, the sounds of camera shots, and press and paparazzi shouting questions at him.

I got out of the car after him, and all the cameras focused on me. "Well well well... Who is this lovely lady following Leonardo out of his car? Could this be a love interest?" I heard a reporter say to a camera as I walked past.

I hooked Leo's arm. "You ready?" he said.

"Yep." I said, taking a deep breath. Then we walked.

Leo went to the barrier to greet some fans, so I looked around for some to talk to.

"What's your name?!" One girl screamed.

"Victoria!" I shouted back.

"You're stunning!!" Another girl yelled, but I didn't know where it came from.

"So are you!" I yelled back into the crowd.

Leo grabbed my arm and pulled me away. "Don't tell them anything personal, okay. You never know who could be out there." He whispered.

"Well hello there Leo! How are you, my friend?" a reporter said.

"I'm good, thank you. How are you?" Leo replied. Cool. I could tell he was good at the whole interview thing.

"I'm good, thank you. So how do you feel about the new movie?"

"I really like the film, I mean it's Romeo and Juliet, everyone knows it. I feel honoured to play Romeo and I hope I did a good enough job." Both the boys laughed.

"And hello miss, what's your name?" the interviewer said to me.

"Victoria Hutchingson." I said, smiling.

"And how old are you?"

"Almost twenty-one."

"So what are you doing here with Leo?"

"I-"

"We're close friends." Leo interrupted.

Close friends? Is that really all we are?
Well, to be fair, we haven't actually said anything. We haven't said we are boyfriend and girlfriend. For all I know, we could just be close friends. Who kiss a lot.

********

"So what do you do?" another interviewer later asked me.

"Nothing, yet. I'm looking to model, but I think I'd need to lose some weight first!" I laughed.

"And I adore your dress! Who designed it?" she asked.

"Chanel" Leo interrupted. Thank God, I had no idea.

We posed for photos, talked to more interviewers, met more fans. Then we watched the movie. It was amazing. He was amazing. And hot.

********

We arrived back at the hotel at 2am. I wasn't even tired.

"You know," Leo said. "You look beautiful."

I giggled.

"And sexy in that dress."

I blushed.

"And you know what else?" he said.

I shrugged.

"I think it would look better on the floor."

And that's how it ended up, my dress on the floor. Leo pushed me onto the bed and began to kiss my neck. Then it happened. We went all the way.
