"If you win, you live. If you lose, you die. If you dont fight, you can't win." - Eren Yeager.
Top floor, floor-to-ceiling windows, a balcony that overlooks the city. A kitchen that's so big it has an island that's as big as a dining room table that flows into an open floor plan into the living room. A giant pink L-shaped couch fills most of the space, and a considerable TV spans the wall. Three of the four bedrooms belong to three women who can't live apart. Three girls who grew up together, always dreaming of doing something out of the small town they grew up in. Currently, they are on the top floor of an apartment complex, which they would never have dreamed of living in. How did they get here?
Somewhere along the way, they changed, grew up, and didn't even notice it. Stars, going on the new hit show AOT, was a random gig that turned into something big. Three background actors were more than what meets the eye. So why is the fourth room empty? How did they get there? Have they lost more than they have gained?
Three girls with dreams of something bigger than who they are.
Graces POV
The light was shining through the curtain, right onto my face. This was bad because I was late for work, which is usually okay, but I've been late for shooting the past few days. I haven't been able to get my medicine for the past week, which normally is okay. Still, I've been out of Trazadone, my sleeping medicine. Over the past week, I've only slept for about eight hours. I'm not even able to take naps, not that I normally have time to.
I get out of the pink palace, what I call my bed, and head to the bathroom. I dont even bother checking my phone, knowing it would be spam calls from the studio. I took a shower and got ready in about 20 minutes, which is good for me before I threw on a black sweatsuit and left my hair down to dry. I didn't bother to make my bed before I headed out to the kitchen to feed my dog, Beauty.
After I fed her, I left the apartment and locked my door. Heading to the parking garage, I wanted to turn around and head back to my bed. Knowing that was not an option, I finally looked down at my phone to see four missed calls from Peter and three missed calls from Adelie, my roommate. I told our group chat that I would be there in ten minutes, knowing they were probably far away from their phones.
Everyone was already on set when I got to the studio and ready to film. They were shooting a scene where Eren, Mikasa, and Armin were on the beach. Everyone else was on the sidelines waiting for the next scene. I headed into my dressing room, knowing that I probably would get fired or another talking to. I finished getting into my suit with way too many straps and headed out.
Adelies POV
I'd already been on set for two hours when I saw my roommate Grace walk onto the set. Her outfit was barely on the right, and her hair and makeup were under par. "When do we go on next," she asked. I told her, "Well, if you had been here a couple of hours ago, you would have known." She looked down and walked away to go talk to Erwin. He's the director so far, and he hasn't been pleased with her from the start.
Peter and I, our other roommate, have been worried about her. She hasn't been sleeping or in a good mood. We can't always worry about her when we are on set. Taking this job has been the best thing that has ever happened to me. The job, people, and benefits are all just too good to pass up.
