Lights, Camera & Action

Gaao

On Sunday afternoon, Lingling and Orm were piled up in a trailer hidden on the back lot of where this years GALA's were being held. Lingling had already put on her shimmery, off the shoulder Black dress, and was currently getting her lip color done a perfect red plum to match her outfit. Lingling sat in the chair, watching her girlfriend get dressed through the reflection of the mirror.

"How do I look?" Orm queried, doing a full circle spin in her dark suit with an open top that leaves exposing breast skin.

Lingling couldn't help but grin, causing Charlotte to grunt in disapproval, "I love it, babe. Black suits you so well also, you're going to murder the red carpet tonight."

"Thanks," Orm said, hiking down the skirt over her thighs, "Have you seen my performance outfit?" Orm asked, holding up a clear outfit bag, which contained a thigh length lace bodice, blacker than the color of Lingling's hair.

Lingling stomach dropped, and immediately, her skin started prickling up with not love, but lust. Lingling's mouth fell agape, and once again, Charlotte groaned, but Lingling couldn't focus on anything but her imagination, which was filled with visions of Orm in that Shiny silver fit dress outfit. Lingling wasn't sure how she was going to make it through Orm's performance without passing away.

"You're going to look so great in it," Lingling murmured through the lipstick Charlotte had been blotting around the corners of her mouth.

"P'susie picked it out, she said I need to sex up my appearance a bit more to get the critics talking, especially since we have the new movie coming out soon," Orm stated.

"Bad press is better than no press," Lingling commented, which wasn't exactly true, because no press didn't drive celebrities into depression, but Lingling didn't want to ruin Orm's outlook on her new found fame.

Orm shrugged, "I guess that's true, except I haven't seen any bad press yet. I've been penned as the next Thai Princess, I can't believe it. I used to sit in my room and look up to women who already hold that standard, like Urassaya Sperbund(Yaya) and Pimchanok Luevisadpaibul (Baifern), and now I'm being grouped together with them. It's crazy," Orm exhaled in her daydream like state.

Lingling let the corners of her lips fall into a visible frown, because Orm was so innocent and misinformed, and Lingling didn't want to have her learn how cruel, evil, and controlling the industry really was.

The first few years were like an endless dream, but then, the public begins to get tired of said celebrity, and it all goes down from there. Lingling had watched too many of her child star friends go off the rails and into a deep abyss to which they would never return.

"It's almost show time, girls," Junji said from the ajar door, which she had managed to open quickly and quietly.

"We would be finished if Princess Lingling would stop talking," Charlotte groaned, angrily drawing lip liner across the bottom of Lingling's already heavily traced lips.

Engfa stuck her head in the door behind Ally, "Lingling, let's go, the hosts keep talking about you and Orm, and honestly, it's kind of pathetic how much publicity you guys are getting. It's like the Win Metawin Fiasco all over again."

Lingling rolled her eyes at the mention of his name.

Charlotte stood back, eying Lingling's face, and then patted her on the shoulder, "Go, now, before I change my mind."

Engfa grasped Lingling by her forearm, and Orm followed suit. The trio trotted out of the cramped trailer, letting September'd setting sun envelop their skin with it's warmth.
