Lost

Meeting New People

Patrick's Pov

Today was meet the cast day and to be honest, I am pretty excited, but I actually have mixed emotions. I mean, I'm sad and worried about my mom because I just found out that she has cancer, but excited because I get to meet brand new people, and hopefully make some new friends.

I remember that woman I auditioned with, Pompeo I think. She was so breathtakingly beautiful. I was just staring at her in awe, she was looking at me with her beautiful emerald green eyes that were staring into my soul, but I didn't mind because well. . .  she was beautiful. But Jillian's still my beautiful wife, I don't plan to cheat on her anytime soon or ever, especially with Sullivan, Tallulah and Darby. But that woman, I can't get her out of my head. I really hope that she's going to be there today.

I get out of bed and make myself some breakfast. I was so excited to see her again. Once I'm done my breakfast I run upstairs and kiss my kids and beautiful wife goodbye I'm off.

I hop into my car and drive to Prospect Studios. I park my car and get out. As I look around, sure enough it's the woman from the audition. Today she was wearing black jeans and a white and black stripped shirt and she looked stunning.

"Hey, Pompeo?" I shout. With my luck, she walks towards me and smiles. "My name is Ellen, my last name is Pompeo. What's yours?" She asks. Man, she even has a stunning voice. "My name is Patrick, my last name is Dempsey." I say. There was practiclly no one here so we had more one on one time with each other, just to get to know each other a bit better.

  "So I have two daughters, Stella and Sienna with my husband Chris Ivery. Stella's six years old and Sienna's five." Ellen went on about her family. "Well, I have three kids, Tallulah, Sullivan and Darby. Tallulah's five years old and Darby and Sullivan are three. Their twins. But what I haven't told you, something important, my mother has ovarian cancer, I just found out today, and she's not doing well." I say. I start to cry.

Man, my co-star is really really hot, it's so hard to not have a crush on him. I mean, I think it's probably the hair, but it's hard not to get lost in his ocean blue eyes. I think I already do have a crush on him. But when he talked about his mother and how she has cancer, I immediately felt bad for him. He started to cry and I wrap my arms around his shaking frame. "Listen Patrick, I'm really sorry about your mom, tell her that I wish she feels better." I say in hope that he'll feel better. "Thank you El, but I haven't told you everything about me, I - I'm also dyslexic, which basically means that I have trouble reading. When I was back in school kids didn't like me because I was different, they bullied me and they saw me as an easy target. They always picked a fight with me but instead of fighting they just beat me up. My mother would always ask why I got so many bruses on my body. But one day they beat me up so hard they knocked me unconscious." He explains. "Wait, if you're dyslexic, then how did  you read the lines in the auditioning room?" I ask him. "It was hard, but I memorized them the night before. I went to bed around one in the morning." He explains. "Listen, I really hope that we can be friends." He says. "I hope so too." I say. I look forward and lots of people are coming. "I guess we should go meet other people but I'll call you after work." I say already thinking that we could be friends. We get up and walk away from each other. "Wait Ellen, do you want to grab a coffee with me after work?" He asks. "That sounds great, let's do it." I say. I walk towards a curly haired asian lady. "Hello, I'm Sandra Oh, and you are?" She asks. "Oh, I'm Ellen Pompeo. I'm sorry, I was just a little bit distracted." I say. "By Patrick Dempsey, the most hot and sexy actor of all time? Yeah, I know, it's hard not to have a crush on him, he's so hot." She says. "Wait, how do you know his name?" I ask. "Oh, I just met him, he seems nice." She says. "Sandra, his mother has cancer, he actually told me earlier today. He cried. but it's like his beautiful face is to hot for tears." I say. "Oh my god seriously? That's so sad." Sandra says.  "He actually asked me to coffee later today, and I said yes. He's also dyslexic." I say. "Oh, well then how does he read his lines?" She asks me. "He said that he memorizes them the day before." I say. "Well anyway, I'm ecstatic to work with you on Grey's. I'll see you later." She says.

Twenty minutes later, after I've met everyone I meet back with Patrick and go for coffee. We walk to Starbucks and grab a table. With our coffees Patrick pays for the both of us and we sit down. "So Patrick, what did you want to talk about?" I ask him. "Your daughters, what are they like?" He asks me. "Well to start off, both of my daughters are pretty sassy, Stella loves dressing up and pretending to be a model and Sienna loves Dora and dancing to music, what about your kids? "Oh as well as your daughters, Tallulah is pretty sassy too. She loves trying new things, like recently she joined swimming and that's going well, and for the twins, Darby is the daredevil, and Sullivan is the more cautious one. But they're both crazy." He says and takes a sip of coffee. I haven't realized how long I've been sitting here enjoying myself with Patrick until I check my watch and remember that Chris wanted me home for dinner. I've been here for two and a half hours. "Patrick, I have to go, but I'll text you." I say. "Yeah, I should go too." He says and gets up. "Oh, and thank you for paying for me. I'll see you at work." I say and head out of Starbucks.

After Ellen left, I got into my car and drove home. I could feel a fight brewing maybe not today, but tomorrow definitely. I walk inside my house and I insistently hear little feet padding towards me. "Daddy! You're home! We missed you!" I look up to see both Sullivan and Darby looking up at me with big eyes. "What are you monkeys doing up so late? How was school? " I ask  picking them up and tickling them. "Daddy, it-it was g-good." They chorused through laughing. "Where's your sister?" I ask them. "She's asleep." Sullivan says. "Okay, well go to bed now and I will kiss you both goodnight." I say putting them down. They run upstairs to their room and close the door.

I walk into Tallulah's room and kiss her on the head. She stirs in her sleep as I walk out and go to the twins room. "Goodnight you guys see you in the morning. I love you." I say and walk out. I quietly walk into Jill and I's room suddenly having the feeling that she's cheating on me.
