Hollywood life 4: temptations running wild

Rehearsals

I was getting ready to go on set for days and my character was going to be tackling mental illness. I already knew this was going to be a hard task for me so I made sure Robert and Brandon would be there to make sure I'm ok.

"Well clearly you can't do the job your suppose to do Alex I called in back up to help." Maggie said as I walked in pissed. "Surprise." I said faking a smile and waving at Alex. "Cassandra it's so nice to see you." He said walking to me as I pushed him away. "Unfortunately I can't say the same for you. Maggie here tells me your not pulling your weight at work. Could this be to the fact you messed up alli and Chanel's relationship for a dry theesome?" I asked as he looked at me. "I'll let you two work." Maggie said before leaving. "You know what's sad Alex?" I asked. "I once again had to come here to help Maggie get out of a mess that you clearly can't pull off." I said. "What were you doing that was important?" He asked. "If you must know." I said showing my hospital band. "I was in the hospital almost on the verge of suicide." I said as Alex looked at me shocked. "Cass I didn't know." He said reaching out as I moved back. "You didn't ask." I said. "I thought you cared about me." I said. "I do it's just that I have a lot going on." He said. "Oh yeah you do. First Sloan then alli and Chanel and Stephanie. I was friends with you long before you associated with the help." I said mad. "Your a disappointment to everyone around you Alex. The sad thing is you don't even see what you did was wrong. You try to play it off like your this great man but your not. You constant hurt and use people and the sad thing is you put the tough guy act to mask the fact you don't know anything about women. How does someone like you run a magazine like this but lack brain capacity to deal?" I asked faking a laugh. "I'm only here to work on the magazine and then I'm going back to getting help." I said as Stephanie walks in. "Great another one." I said. "I'm sorry am I intruding?" She asked. "Your are." I said mad. "Stephanie can you give us a second?" He asked. "Oh no she doesn't know about your misdeeds?" I asked. "What is she talking about?" Stephanie said. "You don't know?" I said pushing him out of the way facing her. "Golden boy here slept with Allie while she was with Chanel breaking them up." I said as she looked at him shocked. "You dogged a bullet girl." I said sarcastically. "Anyway I'll be back tomorrow we are cleaning up house around here." I said before leaving. I sat down frustrated sitting at my desk thinking about the night I was admitted to the hospital. Alex snaps me out of my daze by knocking at the door. "What do you want?" I asked. "I came to check on you." He said. "Oh now you care?" I asked. "I just feel bad about you being in the hospital." He said as I banged my hand on the desk. "There goes the good boy routine yet again." I said standing up mad. "God Alex not everything is about you." I said. "I see why Stephanie is sleeping with chad she wants someone who doesn't only think with his private parts and is there for her." I said in his face. "Casandra I'm sorry about what happened to you I should have been more attentive to you." Alex said. "When we're you going to find time? Between getting your rocks off or causing chaos in other peoples relationships?" I asked. "Do me a favor Alex while I'm here don't even grace my hotel trying to get your jollies off. I'm sure there's a woman in Salem stupid enough to get a taste of you." I said sitting down going back to work.

I walked in the court yard talking on the phone when I see Chanel. I hang up and I see Chanel. "Hello Cassandra." She said awkwardly. "Where's your ugly half?" I asked. "Excuse me?" She asked. "You know that girl you were dating that slept with Alex causing your  breakup." I said. "She went to new zeland." She said sad. "Well good for her. Let me guess you haven't gone on trail for murder yet? Ohh too soon?" I asked sarcastically as she got mad. "You don't know anything about that." She said walking away. "Actually I do." I said as she looked at me. "You pushed sloans mom off a ledge. That's murder." I said. "What did Alex ever see in you?"
I asked. "That's what this about." Chanel said. "Your upset about me and Allie and Alex." She said. "Please. You two are below the barrel in regards to threesome partners." I said. "Let's hope you don't lose your bakery after Sloan takes you for what little you have." I said as Alex looks in the corner seeing what happened.

I walked in the bar. "Tequila on the rocks please." I asked sitting down. Brady walks over to me. "Cassandra Peterson." He said as I turned around smiling. "Brady black." I said. "Looking as handsome as ever." I said. "What are you doing in town?" He asked. "Work cleaning up after Alex I just got out of the mental hospital." I said. "What's going on?" He asked sitting. "I had a mental breakdown." I said. "I'm sorry to hear that." He said holding my hands. "Thank you." I said. "Listen sometimes people need help." He said. "Mine came too late." I said sighing. "It's never to late." He said. "I'd rather you live and be a beautiful human like you are than in the ground." He said as I smiled. Brady moves the hair from my face as I blushed. As Brady and I are talking Alex sees us. "Thank you for being here for me." I said. "Your welcome." He said. "Ummm you want to go watch a movie in my room?" I asked. "Sure." He said as we walked out together holding hands. We walk to my room Alex right around the corner spying on us as we entered our room. "Nice room here." He asked. "Thank you. Maggie called me into town and she's paying for my room." I said. "I'm sorry about what happened to Marlena she was always so sweet to me." I said. "Not a day goes by where I don't think of her." Brady said as he sat next to me on the bed. I rested my hand on Brady's leg as he looks at me. "Are you still dating Kristen?" I asked. "No we are taking care of our daughter together." He said. "I don't know how you put up with her." I said. "My daughters sake."  Brady said. "Listen I also hear your dealing with heartbreak." I asked. "Yeah chole moved on with EJs brother." He said. "Really? Stefan? Talk about scarping the bottom of the barrel." I said as he smiled. "What about you and Alex?" He asked. "That's history." I said. "He's shown he doesn't care why should I?" I asked. "Can I be honest?" He asked. "Of course." I said. Brady stands up as I looked at him. "I'm going to be honest with you." He said. "I haven't had a one night stand in a long time." He said as I stood up. "It's been a long time with me as well." I said. "I know your going through a lot mentally and I don't want to put that pressure on you." He said. "You won't be pressuring me. It's not pressure if we both want to do this." I said. I lean into kiss Brady. Brady kisses me back holding me close as we make out. The romantic music played as we made out. Brady unbuttoned my shirt kissing my neck as I moaned. We land on the bed making out as the romantic music played in the background. As we are making out, my phone goes off. "Talk about bad timing." He said as we both breathed heavy laughing. "I'm ignoring it." I said pulling Brady back in for a smoldering kiss. Alex was blowing up my phone as I continued to ignore him. "If you want to stop we can." Brady said. "I don't plan on it." I said smiling.

Alex ran into Chanel. "Have you seen casandra?" Alex asked Chanel. "Yeah she went to her room." Chanel said as Alex ran to the hotel. I plop my head on the pillow next to Brady breathing heavily. "Oh wow." I said as he smiled. "Yeah wow." He said as we laughed. "I can tell it's been a while for you." He said. "Yeah it has." I said. "I hope this doesn't interfere with us doing business." Brady said. "It won't I can keep it professional." I said. "What about Alex?" He asked. "That's a whole nother story." I said as he laughed. "Do you have to leave?" I asked. "Not now I don't." He said. "Good I can order us some room service." I said putting my robe on. "You know you can always talk to me." He said. "I appreciate that." I said as he smiled before ordering food. I hung up the phone and laid on the bed with Brady. Not long after I laid down, I heard a knock. "That was quick." He said. "Right?" I asked as I opened the door to see Alex. "Alex what do you want?" I asked annoyed. "I've been looking for you." He said. "I'm sure you have." I said. "Who is it?" Brady asked as Alex looked at me. "Are you in there with Brady?" He asked. "Yeah what's it to you?" I asked. "Your really sleeping with him? You know he still loves chole." He said. "Well after I was with him he wasn't calling out Chloe's name." I said smiling. "You got anything eles you wanna tell me?" I asked. "No I guess not." Alex said hurt. "Great have a good day." I said closing the door. "You ok?" He asked. "Yeah I'm better." I said. "I know that couldn't have been easy." He said. "It wasn't but it needed to be done." I said. "Like I said I'm here for you." Brady said hugging me. "Thank you." I said as we smiled.

I was done with my filming and I was on my way home to pack for me and Jimmy to go to Italy for the next month and a half. I'm excited to get more time to spend with my baby.
