A Movie Of Our Own

Charlotte

I sit down at our table waiting for Lena to come back from the bathroom.

When she said she wanted to "spice things up" I didn't think she meant this. After I saw the signal Brooke was so clearly sending me, I decided I was gonna go to the restroom — just before Lena stopped me.

Apparently she knew what she was doing, and by going to the bathroom instead of me it would help with our mission, even though I already forgot the whole objective.

I was then cut out of my thoughts when I heard the bathroom door slam loudly.

Oh god.

I then looked up to the bathroom door to see Lena exiting with a slight grin on her face even if everyone there was glaring at her.

"What the hell did you do Lena?" I questioned as soon as she neared the table.

"So I basically pissed her off even more." She answered as she sat down in her seat. "You have to hear me out though." She protested before I could even get pissed at her.

"What am I hearing then?" I firmly responded back.

"Ok so you know how she was staring the whole time?" Lena asks. I nod back in return.

"Well I basically went in there and "claimed" you as mine. Gross I know. When in reality we both know that's far from the truth. And the whole point of me doing that was in hopes of her getting even more jealous knowing that we might have something going on." Lena states as she takes a sip of her drink.

"So what I'm hearing is you just made her even angrier in hopes of her becoming even more jealous?" I questioned.

Even if I knew the answer to that question I'm not sure it was the smartest idea. Maybe we were pushing it with this whole mission and maybe we should lay back for the meantime. Either way it's not like it was really heading anywhere.

"Exactly!" She agreed.

I let out a quick sigh.

"Well I think we should lay down on the mission for a bit, don't you think?" I suggested. "I mean at least during your birthday week, I don't want to be doing a silly mission when we should be focusing on you." I add.

"I guess we could. Besides, I really do think I pissed her off back there, I was terrified." Lena comments.

"Thanks Lena. Anyways, I need to go talk to her assistant really quickly, I'll be right back!" I announced as I got up from my seat and walked towards Brooke's assistant.

There wasn't exactly anything to talk about, but I needed to give Brooke's jacket back somehow. And I figured right now wouldn't be the best time to tell her that I still had her jacket after Lena told me about how annoyed she was.

So, I would ask Ashley, if I'm correct, for her number so I could text her about the jacket later.

I definitely didn't want to start anything though, especially after telling Lena I wanted to lay low on the whole situation for now.

"Hey it's Charlotte! You're Ashley right?" I questioned the blond who was sitting down at the table going through her purse.

She turned to look at me. "Oh, hi Charlotte! I didn't even notice you were here! And yes I'm Ashley, what can I do for you?" She responds back now bringing her full attention to me.

"I just wanted to ask if I could have Brooke's personal number, I wanted to talk to her about the scenes we'll be shooting next week and she told me to ask you about her number." I replied hoping that she wouldn't ask any questions about the whole thing.
