Laura's Pov
I had woken up from a pretty bad nightmare this morning and decided to go on a run. I ran for around an hour before heading back to my hotel and hopping in the shower. It was still kind of early so I couldn't call Talia so to pass the time I pulled out my homework and got to work since I was falling behind a little. I did my schoolwork for around an hour and a half before I finally finished. After putting my books away, I switched on the tv and turned-on Agents of Shield since I've been binge watching it recently. It was now a little past lunchtime and I had watched about six episodes.

Sighing in defeat I hopped out of bed and slipped on my shoes and grabbed my bag. I had seen a small fast-food joint while on my run, so I headed towards that. Once I got there, I pushed the glass door open and walked into the building. I ended up ordering a cheeseburger and fries along with water to wash it down. After I finished my food and threw out my garbage I headed to a park. There weren't many people there since it was pretty cold outside. Sitting down on one of the benches I pulled out a sketchbook and pencil from my bag. I ended up sketching the landscape of the park, and not to toot my own horn but I think it came out pretty nice. Lost in my thoughts, I ended up staying at the park until it got dark. Begrudgingly I got up from my spot stretching my arms and legs which were crapped from sitting for so long. The walk back was peaceful but cold. When I got back, I didn't feel like cooking, so I grabbed a granola bar to munch on. I took a shower and changed into some pjs finally retreating to my bed curling into a ball. Today was nice, but I would be lying if I said I didn't miss Scarlett which is weird for me. I am really trying to not let myself get attached to anyone here since I know that after this, I won't ever see them again. But something about her just makes me feel safe which is a feeling I've never really experienced. Sure, I had Jenny, but it's not the same. I don't know, I'm probably just overthinking it.

*time skip to next day*

We're back on set and today were filming some stunt scenes which is fun. Tom had tried to apologize to me multiple times, but I would always brush it off and tell him it's fine. In fact, he and I got along pretty well and discovered that we both had a love for national treasure. During breaks it was absolute chaos and I'm pretty sure most of the adults are scared of us now. We've also started an alliance and plan to prank everyone on the cast members.

It was another break and both Tom, Scarlett and I were all in the lounge. I was laying on the floor while Tom was on the couch and Scarlett on one of the chairs working on something with her laptop. "Why are they called a computer mouse?" I said randomly looking at the mouse Scarlett was using. Scarlett gave me a questioning look as I continued. "Like it doesn't have a tail so shouldn't it be a computer hamster or something?" This caught Tom's attention.

"Wait, I thought hamsters did have tails," he questioned.

"Well, they do, they're just really short- but that's not the point!" We both burst out laughing while Scarlett watched us with an unimpressed look on her face.

Selena walked over to us the sound of her shoes tapping on the floor causing the three of us to look over at her. "Hey little cabbage how you feeling today?" She asked plopping down on one of the seats.

"I'm good," I replied, simply getting a nod in response from her.

"Wait little cabbage?" Tom questioned making me and Selena giggle.

"Yes, you see I was born in France and there, a popular pet name is "mon petit chou '' which means my little cabbage. It's basically the French version of calling someone pumpkin." She explained.

"Wait actually?" Tom said, surprised. Even Scarlett looked a little intrigued at this fact.

"Mhmm, me and Laura both think it's hilarious, so I just started calling her my little cabbage in English," Selena said, smiling warmly at me.
