Do I Want To Know?

Chapter 7- Action!

   Frank and Joe walked onto the set, glancing around to familiarize themselves with the surroundings. Joe saw the graveyard set piece, and his eyebrows knit together in confusion. He looked at Frank, who didn't seem all that confused, which insisted that the graveyard must've been a normal occurrence.

   "...What's this movie about?" Joe asked, and Frank paused, lifting his hands like he was about to explain it to him with a few notable hand gestures,

   "So basically-"

   "Frank!" He was cut off when someone yelled to him from across the room. Immediately he saw Callie waving in his direction with a smile on her face. Nancy was next to her, both standing by the craft services table, waiting for the shoot to begin. Frank locked eyes with Nancy too, and she gave him a small smile and wave. That guilty feeling began to well up in Frank's chest again, but he smiled back at both of them. He beckoned Joe over to them, and soon the group was reunited.

   "Hey Nance. Hey Callie. Enjoy your time on the set so far?" Joe asked cheerily, and Nancy began to explain the whole situation with the security guard, and how they ran into Clyde and Babs.

   "So... More stuck up Hollywood people, huh?" Frank said jokingly with a grin, and Nancy chuckled because she knew he wasn't really joking. She saw Callie cross her arms out of the corner of her eye, and willed herself to stop laughing.

   "I've also heard the other lead of the movie is around here somewhere..." Nancy stopped, thinking to herself,

   "Shoot, what was her name...?"

   With perfect timing, a gorgeous woman walked in, with Clyde at her side and Babs trailing in behind them. The woman had curly brown hair that went in all directions, but it didn't look messy, it looked windblown and perfect. She was wearing an elegant dress too, a blood red color. What the hell was this movie about?

   She and Clyde appeared to be having a pleasant conversation, and Nancy soon recognized her as the second lead of Guy's movie.

   "Her name is Victoria Hoffman." Callie spoke up, vague hostility in her voice. Her arms were still crossed, and Nancy couldn't help but feel like she was pissed about her and Frank making fun of Hollywood. Callie was clearly into all of it, so Nancy felt mildly bad about the jokes they made.

   But she also felt really good that she had that moment with Frank.

   "Honey." Callie continued, and Nancy froze,

   "Hm?" Frank hummed his response, his attention taken away from the two Hollywood stars walking in. Nancy nearly felt like she could throw up.

   Is that how Callie wanted to play it? Call Frank pet-names right in front of her?

   Nancy was quick to pause her thoughts.

   Really Drew? You're jealous over Callie calling her boyfriend a pet-name?

   Just cut it out, this really has nothing to do with you. Nancy argued with herself in her head for a while, until she heard Callie giggle,

   "No, no. Not you, Frank." She pointed over to Victoria,

   "That's what Hollywood calls her. Honey Hoffman. Apparently she's sweet like it. At least in the eye of the public" Callie explained, and Frank's face turned beet red,

   "Oh! Gotcha..." He muttered, failing to look anyone in the eyes and instead choosing to stare intently at his shoes. Joe couldn't help the laugh that spilled out of him, and Nancy felt instant relief. She also felt a little embarrassed, and hoped her face hadn't turned red too.
