"CUT", someone yelled as Amelia and Jenson pulled away from each other. They've been shooting this movie for a while now and it's still not nearing completion. Shooting from 6 in the morning until very late at night almost every day of the week, is very tiring and frustrating.

Nonetheless, the producer just never really was quite satisfied with the outcome, resulting in them having to cut many scenes, and having to shoot them again and again.

"How was that?", Amelia asked clearly annoyed, "Was that any better?"
"No. We'll have to do it, again.", Jack, the producer replied and emphasized the 'again'. The disappointment and exhaustion can be heard from many of the cast and crew members as they groan, wanting to go home and just rest.

"Seriously? What's wrong with it this time?", Amelia scoffed as she walked over to the crew and pressed play on the computer, which displayed the scene they shot just now.

"What's wrong with this?", she asked, pointing at the screen, "This looks fine to me."
"Exactly. I'm not looking for 'fine', I'm looking for 'great' or 'perfect'. Go on, get back to your position and do it again." Jack explained.
"Come on man, we've been here since 6 in the morning.", Jenson pleaded with tired eyes.

Jack sighed as he looked at the clock on the computer - 11:34.
"Alright, fine. Pack up everyone, we'll finish this tomorrow."
'Thank you's and 'Finally's could be heard from multiple crew members as they quickly packed their equipment and started to take their belongings. Amelia walked over to her bags, and started to pack her things up as Jenson walked over to her.

Jenson is a tall, handsome blonde guy, who has a great sense of humor. He's very playful, always cracking jokes here and there. What most people didn't know, were his great cooking skills. If he hadn't pursued acting, he would've been a cook. Or a musician, as he also has a lot of love for the piano. He's a great person to be around.

Him and Amelia were the main protagonists in the film. They had to play a couple, and Amelia didn't have a problem with that. She liked Jenson as a friend, a colleague, nothing more. Before the whole filming process started a few months ago, they would go out and hang out, to get more comfortable with each other. This resulting in the dating rumors to intensify more and more with every meet up.

"Hey."
"Hey.", Amelia replied as she looked back at him and gave him a tired little smile.
"Long day, huh?", Jenson chuckled slightly.
"Yeah, long day." There was a bit of a pause as Amelia continued packing her stuff while Jenson observed her.
"Would you like to get some coffee or something with me at some point?"
Amelia stopped what she was doing to look back at him. His tone seemed off.

"Yeah, sure.", she looked back at her things and continued packing.
"I was hoping we could go as more than friends.", Jenson said hopefully and crossed his arms.
Amelia fully turned around to face him this time and gave him a surprised look, "Oh, well", she trailed off and chuckled nervously.
"You don't have to give me an answer immediately, or even accept. I've just recently started to like you in a 'non-Amelia-professional' way", he said chuckling while making air quotations, "And I'd just rather ask and get rejected, than not asking and potentially missing an opportunity.", he explained.

The 'Non-Amelia-professional' thing, started when she began in the acting business. She lived off of all the unspoken rules, like 'Don't date other actors' or 'Never say no, always say yes'.
She told herself that she will stick to those rules. Always.

Amelia sighed softly as she reached out and gave his arm a slight squeeze. "I'm sorry but I'll have to reject that offer."
Jenson waved it off, "Don't even apologize", he told her, "It's okay. I am sorry, if i made uncomfortable in any way. That was not my intention."
"You didn't! Don't worry.", she reassured him.
Jenson nodded, "Good. Well, there goes that.", he said dropping his hands to his side.
"Go home.", Jenson told her, turning around and walking to his belongings while still looking at her, "Have a good night, Amelia."
Amelia smiled at him, "You too, Jenson."

She finished packing her things when she walked over to her manager, Maddison.
"Hey Mads. Any meetings or appointments tomorrow?", she tapped her shoulder.
Maddison turned to her and smiled,
"I don't think so. Let me check though.", she said looking down at her notebook. She shook her head as her eyes skimmed through the page for the next day.

"Nothing. Only filming tomorrow.", she said and looked at Amelia who nodded her head.
"Okay great, thanks. I'll see you tomorrow. Night!", she bid her farewell and walked out the door before Maddison could give her a response back.

"YOU LEAVING?", said a woman's voice to the curly haired boy who was sitting on the other side of the bed. Lando turned around to look at the woman and gave her a slight awkward smile.

He wanted to be gone before she would wake up. He hates confrontation.

Lando inhaled sharply as he started to put on his clothes from the night before, "Yeah, gotta go to work.", he said before exhaling.
"So when can i see you again?", the woman said as she sat up while covering herself with the sheets.

"Probably never.", Lando responded and didn't give her a single glance.
He started to take his things and walk to the door as the woman scoffed,
"So this is it? You just wanted someone to shag and leave?"
"Yeah? I thought that was pretty clear. You're not even my type anyway. Thanks though. T'was fun." Lando responded as he shrugged his shoulders and left.

He walked to the elevator and waited for it to come. He turned on his phone and looked at the time- 7:43. Lando walked into the elevator as his phone started ringing.
"Hey Jon.", Lando answered.
"Hey, did you get my message?", Jon, his personal trainer, questioned.

"Uhm, no. I just woke up. Didn't have a chance to look at my phone", Lando told him.
"You just woke up? Mate, you have to be at the MTC in like 20 minutes.", Jon told him as he sounded confused.
"Yeah yeah i know. I just have to-"
"Did you spend the night at another girls place?", Jon cut him off.

Lando walked out of the elevator, "Yeah so? It's none of your business, really."
He heard Jon sigh on the other side of the line.
"Mate you can't just go on like this, y'know?
Why don't you find a nice girl and stay committed to her. Surely one of the millions of girls you've slept with in the past is worth committing to.", Jon said.

Lando widened his eyes, "Woah mate, that was a bit uncalled for.", he said. "Are you calling me a slut?"
Jon slightly scoffed, "If the shoe fits.", he sighed and continued speaking, "But i'm serious mate, if you keep on being spotted with different girls every few nights a week, it would really damage the teams image, including your own."

The curly haired boy entered his car and put his phone on speaker, "Yeah whatever. I'll find someone eventually. Alright, I'm gonna head home now. See you at MTC. Bye Mate." Lando hung up the phone and threw it on the passenger's seat. He sighed and just sat there for a moment before turning on his engine and driving home.

This was gonna be a long day.
