AU: you're famous and he isnt

"Hello everyone!" The director of the movie I'm in walks in to the set. "I know this is short notice but tomorrow we are going to Las Vegas, there is a scene as you know that is set in Vegas and the producers and I figured it would be a lot easier to just film there instead of using cgi. So pack enough clothes for a week, we will meet at LAX in T minus 13 hours people. Ill see you tomorrow" she finishes and leaves.
Id be suprised by this announcement but sense we started filming 4 months ago this is the 5th time we had to travel out of state, of course every other time she warns us ahead of time, this is really short notice. I'm not worried about this but I know my finance Harry is going to be mad but I have to tell him of course.

"Harry" I call once I walk in the house, I throw my keeps on the island in the kitchen and walk up stairs to the bedroom to find him playing video games with his best friend Louis.
"Hey babe, whats up?" He asks looking at the Tv.
"I need to talk to you, could you come in to the hall real quick?" I question, hooking my thumb behind me. He nods but continues playing for another few beats and then pauses the game.
"What is it?" He asks following me out the door and I shut it.
"Its nothing big, I...Im leaving to go to Las Vegas tomorrow, for work" I inform him.
"Tomorrow?!" He shouts. "Why didn't you tell me sooner, didn't you just get back from New York like a week ago?"
"Harry, they just told me today. I know its short notice but...what can I tell them?"
"That you want to spend time with your fiancee?! We've been engaged for 5 months and we havent even made a dent into our wedding plans" he complains.
"Harry...I can't just tell them I cant go. Im one of the main characters. I have to be there"
"This is so like you, to choose work over me. Youve been like this for the past 4 years. I should have known if it came down to work or me, you would choose work!"
"I am not choosing work over you Harry! I promise as soon as I get time we will spend night and day together and once this movie is over I wont work on another one until after we are married."
"What so you can spend months and months at a studio instead of with me?"
"No, no. Harry, youre being so unfair. This is my career, my passion. When e started dating thats all I ever said I wanted to do, to act. And from the first movie, you promised to support me no matter what. And then you proposed knowing full well Id still be acting well after were married. But now here you are yelling at me for leaving just for a little bit to do what I want." I yell.
"Yeah and then when you get back you'll leave again, and again and again and soon Ill never see you...whats the point in being with someone you never see" he rolls his eyes and tears prim in my eyes in fear of what he might say next.
"You said you'd always be here for me, youd always support me...you lied." I fight back my tears.
"I didnt know it would be this bad"
"So what are you saying?" I ask as I finally let the tears run down my cheeks.
"Im saying...maybe youre not ready to be married. Maybe we should take a break, call off the wedding just until youre able to actually stay in my life all the time" he shrugs.
"To me it sounds like you think that will never happen" I pull my engagement ring off my finger and throw it at him, I turn on my heels and walk away, wiping the tears off my face.
"(Y/n) wait!" He calls but I ignore him as I run down the stairs and out the door.
