TEAGAN'S ALARM buzzed faintly from her phone, though she hadn't slept at all. she stared at the ceiling, her pillow still damp from hours of tears. the words replayed in her mind on an endless loop: "it was a mistake."

how had a single night, a single kiss, turned her world so completely upside down? she'd told herself she could handle it - that whatever spark had ignited between them would fizzle out with time. but then, he'd kissed her, and for that brief, breathless moment, she'd felt alive in a way she hadn't in years.

but apparently, to him, it was just a mistake.

she dragged herself from bed and splashed water on her face, pausing as she saw the reflection staring back at her. her eyes were puffy, dark circles betraying the sleepless night. she dabbed concealer around her eyes with shaking fingers, trying to cover up any evidence of how wrecked she felt. but her heart felt raw, each beat a reminder that, at any moment, she'd be facing nicholas on set.

you've handled worse, she told herself, putting on her armor - foundation, mascara, blush, a slightly bolder lip color to make her look just a bit more... fierce. she brushed her hair back, making sure every strand was perfectly in place, each layer a little more protection against the tidal wave of emotions just under the surface.

she couldn't afford to break down here. not in front of him, and definitely not in front of the crew. she'd built her career on being poised, professional, charming - an actress who could handle anything. but this... this felt like it was tearing her apart.

nicholas hadn't slept either.

his trailer was dim and still, but his mind was racing, looping back to that kiss with teagan, replaying every detail. the way his lips had met hers, warm and tentative, like she'd been as uncertain and vulnerable as he felt. for a moment, he had let himself get lost in her, feeling her fingers brushing against his chest, her breath catching as he leaned in. it had felt so natural, so right. the rest of the world had blurred around them, just two people letting themselves feel something they'd both been holding back.
