"Oh hell" I said as I woke up with my head throbbing, at which I grabbed my head. I was sleeping at the couch today, which didn't help at all.

"Jesus, you look like you're dying" Joe said as he walked past me to the bathroom.

As he said that I just rolled my eyes and slowly got up to make myself a tea.

"Hey" Kit said as he was making himself a tea.

"Hey. Where's the tea bags?" I said looking around, and in the cabinets too.

"Woah, you look like you're barely standing on your feet" he said.

"That's because I am barely standing" I said, still looking around.

"You can go rest, I can make the tea" he said, pulling out my cup.

"Are you sure?" I frowned and leaned on the sink in the kitchen.

"Of course Fay" he said, already preparing the tea.

I giggled a bit. "Fay?"

He just looked at me with confused smile on his face. "What?"

"Nobody ever called me that, I never heard it"

"Sorry, I didn't know -" he tried to say, but I cut him off.

"I like it" I smiled at him, at which he smiled back.

"Faith seriously, go to bed"

"Okay." I said with smile on my face, rolling my eyes once again. "Thank you"

"I can't believe you convinced us that you're good going with us to set today" Kit said.

Right now, I'm at the set with them as every other day, but Kit made sure that he would check on me.. a lot.

"I'm good though, It's just a little headache, I feel better than I was in the morning" I wanted to reassure him, so he wouldn't worry too much.

"You promise?" he said as he gave me serious look.

"I promise" I said all confident.

"I will still bring you tea, just to make sure. Okay?" he said standing up from the chair, where he was sitting for the past few minutes.

I nodded. "Thank you"

I wasn't worried of him getting yelled at again by Alice this time, since they were shooting some scenes without him, and he had a break for half an hour.

As I was sitting here alone, I was drowning in my own thoughts. Does he see me just as a friend? Or does he feel like I feel? These questions were going in my head non-stop last days, but I'm too scared to talk to him about it. I don't want to ruin what we have now.

"Hey Faith" Dan said as he came up to my chair, with someone by his side. As I looked up, I thought I'm hallucinating. What the hell was he doing here?

"I thought I'll introduce you to my friend, but seems like you two already know each other" Dan said as he scratched back. Looks like he could feel the awkwardness for both of us.

"Hey Faith" Richard said as he came up to me with big smile on his face.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, obviously mad as hell.
