Secrets of the Moon

4

It is dark and damp outside. The moonlight reflects off my pale skin as I tread carefully through the dark trees. Leaves and twigs crack under my feet as I continue to move forward. Following a small path through the woods, I end up in a big open space. As I look around, my eyes adjust to the lighted area to notice a few houses by the edge of the open area. Carefully I tiptoe over to the closest house on the right to peek through the window. I notice everything inside is made of wood; the kitchen, the living room and even the house itself.

Hmmm I wonder who lives here? Why live in the woods away from everyone else?

I turn to go but stand frozen as my eyes land on my surroundings.

How in the world so many wolves are able to gather near me without making a sound, is beyond me? All I know is that I am frightened with fear and cannot move an inch.

A creaking sound behind me catches my attention as I twist around toward the noise. I watch silently as a young man comes out from the darkness of the house. His blue, crystal eyes shine bright in the moonlight. My mouth becomes dry as his image becomes more focused to my eye sight.

"Who are you," I whisper.

He opens his mouth to speak but no words come out. Instead a faint noise appears.

"I'm sorry, what was that?"

The noise occurs again to make my eyes blurry. Blinking a couple times, I look around to notice I am still in bed. I reach over to shut off the annoying alarm going off. Sleepily, I climb out of the bed to plug in the curling iron in the bathroom to let it heat up. I walk back in my room to my walk-in closet to try and decide on an ensemble to wear. After deciding on a black skirt with a red blouse and red Louis Vuitton heels, I walk back in the bathroom to curl my hair. When I am finished and ready, I grab my purse and head out to drive to the All-Star Industries building.

I park in my usual parking spot then hop out and use my pass to gain access inside the building. Everyone greets me as I walk down the hall to the big conference room. Marcell stands up as I walk in to hand me a hot caramel macchiato. We both sit down and start looking at the profiles he has on each person who is going to audition today.

"So are you ready for today," he ask excitedly.

I sigh, "as long as I do not have to deal with Kyle any longer then I am ready for anything."

"Davina, you know we are not the only ones who get to decide. If Kyle is the best then he will be given the part. If not, then you can celebrate afterwards."

"Fine, so when can we get auditions started?"

"We're still waiting on the producer and the writers."

"Hopefully they do not take too long to get here."

I decide to read through the manuscript as we wait for the others to arrive and join us. The new movie is about a girl in college who has been with her boyfriend for a couple years until she meets another guy while in school. She realizes she really likes this new guy and has grown apart from her boyfriend for a while now. It goes on explaining her conflict and her having to make a choice.

The script seems to call to me and I find myself looking more forward to filming this movie than I did the last one. I have just finished reading when the producer and writers walk through the door. I smile as they shake Marcell and I's hands.

"It is nice to see you again Davina. I hope you will enjoy working on this movie with us."

"I think I will enjoy working with you all very much. I cannot wait to start filming."
