Needing is One Thing

Outtakes

  1.
It broke James out of his trance and he jumped, looking down at the handgun he now held. Would he have hurt Andrew?

He reached into his back pocket, pulled out the script, looked between the two and propped the barrel against his temple.

"I can't do it!" He called out over the set. "I can't!"

"Chapter 18, James!!!"

James flipped the pages one-handed to 18. Read it. Re-read it.

"I'm in." He chucked the gun over his shoulder and walked off-set.

2.

Wait a minute. Damien could read minds. Mika shot straight up out of bed and started pacing, her hands clutching her hair at the roots.

Shit!

Shit!

Damien had read her mind yesterday morning from the kitchen. He could hear her. He couldn't shut it off if he tried. He probably had heard everything!

Panicked, Mika turned to the window, threw it open and leaned out to look down at the boys in the yard.

"Hey, Damien!"

"Yeah?"

"You want to?"

"Sure!"

"Great! Bring Sam, too."

"Yes!" Sam cheered in the background.

Mika pulled back into the room, closing the window as she cracked up.

3.

"Wonderful!" Erik gave a broad grin. "She's quite the kisser..." James flushed, working to tamp down his jealousy. Of course Erik noticed. "I'm kidding, I'm kidding!" Erik held up his hands defensively.

"No, really! You're a much better kisser than her, James." Erik grinned, lunging for James and tackling him off the bench.

4.

"You just have a weird obsession with scars..." Naomi complained to Suzu.

"Duh, tough is hot!" Suzu rolled her eyes and pulled up another image on her phone. "See?" Mika glanced over and made a sound of agreement before looking back out the window.

Sam walked up to it from the outside, pulled his shirt off over his head. Striking a pose, he flexed. Matthew popped up behind him to mimic him as the girls all started laughing.

"See?" Suzu indicated Sam. "Tough is hot!"

5.

"Hi!" Mika's head shot up to see the man in question walking down the hall towards them. More than one group of girls stared at him. Mika wasn't sure how she felt about that.

Lisette suddenly barged in between them, offering Andrew her hand. "Hi, I'm Lisette!"

Andrew looked down at her hand for a second and then nodded. Grabbed it and spun her into his arms, dipping her low before leaning down to kiss her.

"Hey!" Mika yelled.

Andrew dropped Lisette on the floor and quickly straightened up, brushed off his coat. "What?? I wasn't doing anything, I swear baby doll!"
