"go! i've got my grand baby." mom told me.

"are you sure you've got her? you can call me anytime, i'll rush back here." i told her.

"yes! you go see your friends, you haven't seen them in a while. just be careful on the road, jaywalking isn't like LA here." she told me.

"i know, mom i'll be careful." i told her before taking juniper from her hands and attacking her with kisses before handing her back to mom. i got into the car, put on my lipgloss before texting billie that i was on my way.

the drive was a half hour away with traffic. i got there and called billie this time, "i think im outside? i don't really know what the place looks like and its creepy and dark outside."

"relax, im walking out right now." she half giggled. "i see you."

"where?" i turned around, looking for her. "i don't see you."

"stop spinning around, i see you." she laughed at me.

"shush." i giggled. "oh! i see you!" i started walking towards her.

"are you a hug person?" she asked. we were still on the phone walking towards each other.

"i don't mind hugs, why are you a hug person?" i replied.

"i am, but i would hug someone that would like a hug." she replied.

"you can hug me billie."

"you look so pretty blaze!" we both put our phone down.

"you don't look too bad yourself." i lied and hugged her. she also smells good, other than the fact that she looks so very beautiful.

"come in, i promised you a tour." she said, and we both walked into the building.

"how is it going? is it everything you imagined it to be?" i asked about work.

"and more." she nodded. "i learned about everything in college, ive seen somethings behind the scenes after i graduated but this is a different kind of experience. and the exciting thing is my first time really experiencing it where i am also a part of it! like i get a say in how the production goes. i boss people around delilah."

"oh i bet you love that." i nodded knowingly.

"i do, the best thing is when the interns get me coffee." she told me. "i used to be one of those interns too."

"hey, then you can't be mean to them."

"no that's how i learned, it's necessary." she told me.

"hey you! you're not allowed to be here!" someone yelled from the right hand of the huge ass place.

"hey intern! you're trying to kick me and my guest out of my own set?" billie yelled back.

"sorry! didn't see you." he walked off embarrassed.

"come here, let me show you something cool." she opened a door, which led to a room with three walls only. "remember this cause you'll see a lot of this room in the movie."

"holly shit! who decorated this set?" i chuckled looking at the weird shaped lamp that i lowkey was a fan of.

"janet slone." she replied. "i'll introduce you if you want. she's probably out by the trailers."

"no, she probably busy, but you can extend my compliments to her. she did an amazing job." i replied. "show me your favorite set."

"i'll leave the best for last, have some patience." she told me.
