You are late to the studios of Jimmy Kimmel's Late Show

You are late to the studios of Jimmy Kimmel's Late Show. The traffic jams on the streets of New York got the better of your organization. You hate arriving late, especially when you are not responsible for it. Hair in the wind you hurry to join your dressing room so that the make-up artists try to hide your drawn features due to fatigue. Tonight, like every past and upcoming nights this week, you have to promote a film in which you shot. Yesterday you were alone against David Letterman, tonight at Jimmy Kimmel's and tomorrow at Jimmy Fallon's. Fortunately, tonight and tomorrow you are not alone since you are accompanied by your co-star Christoph Waltz. It is also the moment you come out of your dressing room perfectly prepared with a  bun that you see it waiting in the backstage, tapping from the heel.
- Hi Christoph, you say as you approached to kiss him.
- Hi y/n, how are you?
- I was stuck in traffic jams at the height of Grande Avenue, I thought I would never arrive on time ! And you?
- I would rather be everywhere else than here, in fact. But I'm glad to see you.

You blush at these last words. You've been blushing for months at every sweet attention of your co-star. And, in fact - you've been trying for months to hide what you feel deep inside.
- Everywhere else, are you sure? Even in the burger restaurant where Joe (Whrite, the director of the film you just shot) brought us to last week?
- ... don't say that. But really, Kimmel's interviews...
- I know... Get ready, tomorrow is Fallon's one.
- Dear me...

You know how much, Christoph hates these big Late Show, you don't like them so much either. Like him, promoting your work is not what you like to do the most, but you can't help but have a certain enthusiasm for sharing these shows with him. A man approaches to hang the microphones on your clothes. Christoph is always perfectly dressed. You think that you haven't seen him a single day badly dressed since you worked with him. Perfectly ironed shirt, perfectly cut pants, well-cut suit shirt. You're not bad either with your fitted blouse and your long high-waisted skirt. Without consulting you before, your outfits are in the same shade of color. Another man signals us not to speak anymore because our microphones are activated, and in the same movement we are invited to move forward. You hear Kimmel announce:
- And now, I know that you expect them as much as I do. They are featured in the new drama period by Joe Whrite: Pride and Prejudice. A thunder of cheers for y/n and Christoph Waltz!

You walk on the stage, a polite smile for Christoph, a shy smile for you. Christoph signals you to sit down first, to which you answer a complicit smile towards the audience with a hand wave to mimic a fan.
- Ah Christoph, always so polite! I must tell you that I'm really happy to receive you tonight, says Kimmel when the public stopped the applause.
- And we are delighted to be there, you hasten to reply.
-Yes, we will say that, adds Christoph, winning the laughter of the public.
- But I hope you are happy to be there! This is not the first time you have come Christoph since I had the pleasure of welcoming you a few months ago for the release of Django Unchained, and you there some time ago for the release of Sense and Sensibility.
- Indeed, you answer.
- I saw your film, of course, and what a pleasure to see you both shoot together! What an alchemy! Did you like to play together?
- No, really not. I can't stand the presence of y/n. Ironizes Christoph, still winning the laughter of the public.
- Really? Ask for dazed Kimmel.
- Stupid question, stupid answer, adds Christoph, crossing his legs.
