GUESS WHOSE BACK

Emma is London for new movie the favourite . Andrew starring in angels in America.

Andrew POV
Down in London performing for a reboot of a play "Angels in America". I play Prior Walter, a gay man living with AIDS. This play represents a lot of things to me as I am a huge supporter of the lgbt+ community and I love being able to use my platform to support my own gay friends and everyone in this community.
We've been rehearsing for a long time and I'm excited that press night went so well. Releasing it to the world gives me much more joy though as that is why I make movies and star in plays etc. I can share an art form with the world.

Emma's POV
After such a success in La la land I'm now the highest paid actress... what?
Currently I'm filming for a new movie with Nicholas Hoult, The Favourite. We're located in London for our movie and soon after this finishes I've got to go back to LA to film a new Netflix series with my old friend Jonah Hill - jobs are racking up and life is getting busy. I've got about 2 days off filming for a break and I've got an appearance at a polo game with Nicholas and I might check out what's on at the theatre. The 'what's on' list shows times for Yerma, mosquitoes, angels in America and network.
*at the polo*
I text Nicholas to see where about he is because I arrived pretty early and he isn't here yet but we need to have paparazzi promo photos soon,
To: hoult
Where are you at? We got the photos soon.
*response minute later*
From: hoult
Behind you ;)
"Boo" Nicholas softly taps my shoulders and has a hint of smugness in his voice,
"Nick you are not funny" I deadpan him.
He looks unaffected by my playful scorn and shrugs his shoulders, "well I tried. Do you think we should get going though?".
We stroll down the freshly cut grass to the paps area,
"Do you want to go see a play tonight?" Nick looks caught off guard by my offer but accepts nonetheless,
"Which one?"
"There's lots on at the national theatre and I was wanting to find someone to see angels in America with me", I admit. Nick makes a causal remark to that, "Oh the one with your boyfriend in it?"
I laugh and shove him with my shoulder "you know he's not my boyfriend anymore" no matter how much I would want him to be.
"Omg Emily you think you're being discreet but we all see a reunion in the near future" he states like it's the most obvious thing in the world.
In a small whisper I tell him, "why do you think I want to go this play?"
Nick looks like he's just been told the most scandalous thing and he just takes a moment to side eye me and shake his head and laugh like when a girl tells her best friend about a stupid crush.
"Whatever time it is, text me, and we can go watch your boyfriend's play"

Andrew POV
Our first opening night and curtain call approaches. It has been a tough few hours tonight but I loved it, it felt good to finally let people see it. Backstage the energy is electric and all the actors and I are so excited about our product finally being out there.
*back at dressing room*
There's a frantic knock at my door and my co star Denise is waiting with the production team and others running about or whispering softly to each other and turning their head in surprise at the news. News I don't know
"Andrew,' she starts hurriedly, 'Emma stone and Nicholas hoult are backstage! Come on quick" she says it so fast that I can barely make a word but the only thing I needed to understand was backstage and Emma. Why she would be here though I have no idea. I bolt after Denise who has already taken off. 
N when we waltz towards to the stage doors I see cast and crew slyly taking photos and then scurrying off because they are in presence of 2 huge stars. Emma is dressed like an undercover cop and Nicholas only disguised with a cap and sunglasses.
"Emma what are you doing here? Did you watch the show? Her head whips around from her previous conversation and and she breaks out into a smile.
"Garfield! Me and nick came after the polo to watch, you did wonderful, all of you did" We all take a stroll back down to the dressing rooms areas and I swell with pride knowing that she had seen and enjoyed the play. Nick interjects putting his hand up,
"Uh I'm here because Emma insisted and we really only came because she wanted to see you"
"Nicholas" Emma gives him a death stare quickly but shyly untucks her hair behind her ear to cover her face which is how I know he's not lying. Conversation flows smoothly between us all and even though Emma and I are mildly distracted and not bothered for the conversation - it continues. That is, until we arrive to dressing rooms and Nicholas, choosing to opt out being with us, tags along to speak to starstruck stage crew. I take Emma's hand and take her to my dressing room where it's quiet and there aren't any phones or people staring at us.
"I'm flattered you came for me and not the show", referring to nick's early remarks. I know I'm winding her up but it is too good an opportunity to pass. She chooses not to say a word but shuffles toward my direction and pulls me into a hug.
"I guess I just miss you and we're both in London, it seemed like a good idea"
"I miss you too Em" it was short and simple but I didn't need to say much more because we were standing in the middle of my dressing room just living in this moment.
*afterthought*
Emma stayed pretty much until sunrise where laughed, cried, hugged and just stayed in our own little bubble. We joked about, talked about the play, her filming, new projects and time we had missed together. It felt exactly like it used to and in other words - it was the perfect night.
