POV:Carter

I can't believe this is happening. I feel the same excitement coursing through my veins as when I first got the call for the new Bad Boys ride or die film. As I step off the plane with my mom, I see the chauffeur holding a sign with my name on it - Rhodes. It's surreal, but I know that my hard work and dedication has brought me to this moment. I can't wait to see what opportunities await me here.

We get to the hotel and I decided it was best to shower before making my way to the first table read. It took me 10 minutes to shower, luckily I didn't wet my hair as curls and time don't go well together. I quickly got dressed and headed down to the lobby where the rest of the cast was already waiting. They all looked fresh and energized, while I felt slightly disheveled and rushed. Lesson learned, next time I'll make sure to wake up a little earlier and give myself enough time to get ready before heading out.

It wasn't my first time meeting everyone, except I have yet to meet Jacob. Bilall Fallah, one of the directors, saw me approaching with my mom and greeted me warmly. He had a reputation for being a talented and hardworking member of the team. the company was already evident, and I was grateful to be a part of it.

We all made our way to the Reading location together, excited for the journey ahead. I got into the chauffeur with my mom, feeling a mix of nerves and anticipation. As we drove through the bustling streets of Miami, I couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement and wonder, knowing it was my first time in Florida. Despite my efforts to remain professional, I could feel the excitement coursing through my veins, ready for the new experiences and opportunities that awaited me.

After the meeting I then made my way to the restroom and took a good 10 minutes.Making my way out I bumped into something tall and hard.As I stood there, trying to steady myself and apologize, I couldn't help but notice his striking features. His chiseled jawline, deep brown eyes , and that wavy hair made my heart skip a beat. It was clear that this man was not only handsome, but also confident and well put-together. I couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated, especially since I was still recovering from my embarrassing bathroom encounter. Like what if this was Will Smith that would've been embarrassing.He flashed me a charming smile introducing himself.

"Jacob," he greeted me with a charming smile, extending his hand towards me. His charm was so irresistible, I almost melted on the spot.

I hesitantly returned the gesture with a soft smile, "Carter," I introduced myself, extending my hand towards him. "Carter?" He repeated, looking at me with a quizzical expression. "That name sounds familiar," said Jacob. "I'm sure I've heard it before."
"It's a pretty common name," I then replied with an awkward laugh. "Oh gosh did I just laugh at my own joke"I asked. "Yeah you did"he giggled his British accent thick.

"Have we met?" he asked with an intriguing facial expression. "No," I then replied, "but we are about to be in a movie together." Our conversation continued as we discussed our roles and shared our excitement for the upcoming project.Jacob then told me about a party some of his friends were having later that night to celebrate his return to his breakout role.I told him would see what I could do and was thankful for the invite.

We then went out separate ways.As I  got into the chauffeur, I had a weird feeling I had never felt before. I tried to figure out what it was on the way back to the hotel, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it.
