Hello, he said.
A smile was all I could produce at that time.

We must of been staring at each other for some time because Neil the director started clearing his throat, and pulled me out of my thoughts.

Shailene? the director said. This is Theo James, he will be reading with you today.

Oh okay, i said like a young giggly teenager. All the while silently telling myself to pull it together.

Neil pulls me aside and tells me he has decided to change to a different scene with Theo. I had been reading the scene where I first encounter Four with all the other guys.

I remember Neil telling me "I have a good feeling about this one. Let's switch to the balcony scene where Four and Tris first kiss."

Are you okay with that, Neil asks. He starts to laugh, because I'm quick to agree.

Tris: The factions, why do you have all of them

Four: I don't want to be just one thing, I can't be. I wanna be Brave, selfless, honest, intelligent, and kind...Although I'm still working on kind.

I am so lost in his eyes I forget we are acting, and that's when he catches me off guard. He goes straight in for a kiss, and I respond like we have done this before.

Neil yells cut, and I falter when he lets me go. My heart is racing and I feel my cheeks begin to flush. I turn to Neil who is just staring at us.

Theo speaks up and says, How was that. I turn and look to him with a small smile.

Neil begins to clap and runs over to us and this is the exact moment my life would never be the same.
