Nothing Lasts Forever [Kaylor Short Story]

F o u r

It was already dawn when Taylor opened her eyes.

She had her right arm wrapped around Karlie's stomach and the left hand tangled in her hair.

Slowly, trying not to wake up the girl next to her, she stood up. When she was about to leave, Karlie spoke.

"Where are you going?"

"You know I have to go back. I'll see you later."

And with that she quietly ran to her tent where Scott was sleeping with his mouth slightly opened.

She laid in bed and tried to sleep.

About half an hour later, she got up and got ready for the day.

She was still thinking about last night but she tried to focus on something more important; today she would be filming her first scene alone without any of the other characters.

It would be just her in front of a camera.

It didn't feel like such a big deal but for Taylor, who had not so long ago started career in this industry, it was.

"Good morning." Said Scott interrupting her thoughts.

"Good morning." She greeted faking a smile.

Now it was the time that came when she felt like an awful human being for doing such a horrible thing to a man that has never given her anything but love.

"You slept well?"

"Yeah and you?"

"Yes but where did you go last night? I woke up and you weren't here."

"Uh-I-I went for a walk, I couldn't sleep."

Taylor finished dressing up when the he once again, interrupted her thoughts.

"Today's your big day, huh?"

"Yeah."

"You'll do great, I'm sure." He said standing up and kissing her temple.

The day consisted of a bunch of scenes where her character Alison and Karlie's, Elizabeth, where chased by a lion.

The girls didn't interact much and that was somehow managing to kill Karlie.

They were now taking a break before Taylor's big scene.

The girl with blue eyes was reviewing the lines when Karlie approached her.

"Hey, good luck out there." Said Karlie trying to look Taylor in the eye but failing completely.

"Thanks." Answered the older girl.

"Are you... Okay with me? I know what happened–"

"Don't. Not here anyways." Cut Taylor in a serious tone.

Karlie sighed knowing that if she wanted to talk with the girl, she would have to wait until they were alone.

"Okay. Goodbye and... good luck."

And with that Karlie went back and sat on her chair as she waited for Taylor's scene.

Some time later she overheard Scott.

"Good luck baby, you'll do it great." He said.

He was giving Karlie his back when he leaned in to kiss Taylor, who looked at her while they pulled apart.

"Okay! Action!"

"She said let's get out of this town. Drive out of the city, away from the crowds. I thought heaven can't help me now. Nothing lasts forever. But this is gonna take me down. She's so tall and handsome as hell. She's so bad but does it so well. I can see the end as it begins. My one condition is..."
