I walk into set. The whole place is crowded with people talking. I feel uncomfortable. I scan the room. I sigh.
"Ellen!" I hear Patrick yell. I look up. I smile, walking through the groups of people to get to him. I hug him quickly.
"Hi" I pull away. "Hey" he smiles. "Why's there so many people here?" I ask. "Didn't you get the email? They're all auditioning for the new role" he says. "What's the new role?" I ask.
"Nobody knows yet.. apparently it has something to do with me though" he shrugs. "Another wife?" I say. He chuckles.
"I hate this" I say, looking at the crowded room. He holds my hand and leads me outside. We go to our trailer. "Don't we have to be there too?" I ask. He shakes his head.
I sit next to him on the couch. He looks at me. I smile. "Are you excited for our date later?" He asks. "Yeah" I grin.
"I've never dated anyone like this before" I say. "This handsome?" He smirks. I hit him playfully. He chuckles.
"I mean I've never dated a colleague before" I say. "I have" he says. "You said you haven't" I furrow my brows. "Oh, I've I've on dates before.. I haven't had sex with them before" he says. "Oh, okay" I nod.
"Oh my god, tallula" he groans, picking up his phone as it starts ringing. He looks at me. "I bet she asks for money" he says. I chuckle.
"Hi sweetheart, are you okay?" He answers. "How much do you need?" He asks. I giggle as he looks at me.
"Yeah, I'm with ellen" he says. "Why would I answer the phone to you if I'm having sex?" He says. I laugh. "Just checking?" He chuckles.
"I'll transfer you the money.. text me when you want me to pick you up" he says. "Okay, I love you.. bye tal" he says. He puts the phone down.
"She's so funny" I giggle. "She was scared that we were mid sex whilst I was talking to her" he chuckles. We both laugh.
"Did tallula say anything about me after I left? I don't want to get in her way staying at your house if she doesn't like me" I say. "She likes you, Ellen.. tallula is so nice, you don't have to worry" he says.
"And.. you'll be staying at my house again?" He smirks slightly. I grin. "I hope so" I giggle. "Me too" he says.
"Are you free tonight?" He asks. "Yeah I am" I smile. "Do you like Italian food?" He puts his hand on my cheek. I look into his eyes.
"I love Italian food" I say. "Okay then" he kisses me. I put my hands on his chest, gently grabbing his shirt in my fists to pull him closer.
He pulls away slowly. I smile at him. "Will this be awkward if it doesn't work out?" I ask. "No, it won't.. I'll like you either way, whether it's because we're dating or because we're friends" he says. "Okay" I say.
"We've already had sex.. we have nothing to lose by going out on a date" he says. "I know" I smile.
"But we've got something to gain" he smiles. "Do we?" I grin. "Lots and lots of amazing sex" he says. I giggle. "That's true" I say. He chuckles softly.
"It was amazing, wasn't it?" I say. He nods. "Yes, you're amazing" he puts his hand on my cheek. "You're amazing" I flirt. He smirks slightly.
"We should probably get to set" I say. "Yeah" he says. We stand up. He puts his hand on the small of my back, leading me out of the trailer and to set.
