Chapter 16

*Next Day*

Aria's POV: 

I'm in my makeup chair chatting about nonsense with my make-up artist. At least, I think it's nonsense. My French is as good as her English, but I think we're making it work. 

She's telling me about her boyfriend in another part of France. It's in the countryside. She's talking about how he's always bringing her flowers and chocolates. 


"I wish I had a boyfriend to bring me flowers and chocolates," I say as she finishes putting on lipstick. 

She gives me a look of sympathy and says, 

"You don't need boyfriend to bring you flowers and chocolates. You buy your own chocolates and flowers." 

I nod, smiling for a bit. "I'm thirsty." 

She glares at me. I shake my head, 

"Nevermind. I can wait until after this scene." I get up from my chair and find my script. I'm always nervous about forgetting my lines, so I bring the script everywhere.  

"What's your name?" I ask the stylist. 

"Maria." 

"Hi, Maria. How long have you been a makeup artist?" I ask. She gives me a raised eyebrow. 

"I've told you my deepest, darkest secrets and now you wanna get to the boring stuff?" She asks through her high pitched laugher. 

I laugh along with her, clutching my stomach. 

"I see your point. Can you help me go through lines?" 

"Sure. Do you have a spare script? I giver her one.  We spend the next twenty minutes going through lines. 

*Later*

Jason comes up to us, sweating like a mad man. The pit stains are almost noticeable. He'sD breathing hard and not saying anything. 

"Are you okay?" Maria asks. Jason catches his breathe one more time. 

"Director needs us on set." 

"We're not on set for another hour?" 

"I told you the wrong time." 

"Shit." He grabs my hand and we run to set.
