Filming day 46: 97

(TW: not so descriptive abuse scene)

I'm late to set. Why? Oh maybe because I couldn't get any sleep last night. My mind racing, pacing on the thought of her in my arms. Somehow, I didn't realize how cold they were without her. And I had only held her a couple of times.

We are... friends? Friends that have to kiss occasionally. Friends that have chemistry. Friends that make each other go crazy.

I had never been so excited to show up to work. I would see her. I would turn us around. And maybe... maybe get her to see me.

I had hated acting my whole life, since I was forced to, by my father. But now it's all I want to do as long as I get to do it with her.

"Easton!" Tanner's voice pulls me out of my thoughts, I turn to face him, he jogs to me and gives me a wide smile. "Good to see you East, everyone's waiting on you." He says with some kind of humor in it, I couldn't tell.

My thoughts drift to Gracie. What outfit did they have her in today? Did they do her makeup naturally? Is she happy, sad, angry? All the questions running through my mind keep my eyes open even though my body is exhausted.

"Great." I reply and clear my throat. Soon, I'm following him through the set, getting into my trailer and getting ready.

A knock on my trailer doors alerts my body awake. The woman doing my hair has been so gentle it's putting me to sleep. Someone... I don't know who, opens the door and Daisy walks in, smiling at the woman behind me.

"Hey, just returning this." She hands a comb to one of the hair dressers. She catches me looking at her and she smiles. I've always liked her, it wasn't until she was sick that I was worried for my little brother.

It was a jerk move. For even considering that Blake should break up with her, she was perfect for him. Both of them were.

"Hey Easton." I don't deserve the smile that comes from her lips. Makes me feel like more of a jerk for hurting her, and my brother.

"Hey." I nod to her, she lingers a little longer, rocking on her heels and biting her lip. I tilt my head. "Is everything okay?"

Her eyes jumped back to me. "Oh uh, yeah it's just-" she takes a pause. "Have you seen the script for today?"

My eyebrows pull up. I haven't, I didn't have time to read it last night, and I haven't been in my head to even go over it here. "I haven't, is something wrong?"

"No! I mean no? It's just- Gracie is just freaking out about a scene she doesn't want to do... I just wanted to know if you saw and maybe... could talk to her, ease her nerves?" She seems hesitant to even ask this, but when Gracie's name is said, I can't help but get curious.
