Kristen's POV:

The second I put my phone down, my mind began to spin. "Can this be the right thing to do? When will David be able to talk to him? Is he gonna do it? I mean the story sounds amazing, I'm sure it's something Rob would be interested in.... How is it gonna be good for my mental health though when saying his name out loud in my thoughts alone makes my body flinch on the inside? Stop it Kristen, you talked to your shrink about this call. It's gonna be fine. Worry only about things you can control. He's probably too busy anyway to shoot another movie in between his Batman stuff."
A message from Dylan flashed up on my screen, which was the sign that I needed to snap back into my reality.

Two weeks later, HE called. We haven't talked on the phone for at least a few years. Rob told me that he had a long talk with David and that after considering his options, he just couldn't decline this movie. My heart dropped to my knees!!! Focus. I prayed that my voice wouldn't crack: "Wow, who would have guessed it, huh? It literally took us 10 years to find another movie to do together, but I guess now is the time, right?" "Yeah" Rob said with his (again) English accent. "I'm sure there's harder things to get used to than seeing you at work every day though", he chuckled and my heart beat faster. We said our Goodbyes, he would be very busy these next weeks and only has 2 days after finishing Batman before rehearsals for our movie would start. A weird feeling of something resurrecting in me surfaced, but I ignored it as I had mastered to do in what have become years of practice by now.

Five weeks later, I was on my plane to Wisconsin, where we'd spend the next seven weeks to film.
