After first practice- show time
7:00 P.M.
"Alright guys, you all did amazing! Day one was a success, thank you and I will see you all on Friday." Lorie dismissed the crew and Metallica. Eventually everyone left expect for James, Lorie and about 4 crew members, oh and Oliver of course.
"You guys ready?" Oliver asked James.
"I am, but I don't know where Miss. Tardy is." James was nervous. What if she decides to bail or worse, she decides to come and is wearing something very provocative. Snap out of it, she's going to be very professional about this. James got calm.
The door to Lories' office busted open and out she came, wearing some skinny black heals with some thin feathers wrapping her ankles, a black silky robe running down to her feet, her hair parted in the middle and straightened, her winged eyeliner, false long lashes and black lipstick. She followed her wardrobe with a black choker, black diamond earrings and rings, topped with black stiletto nails.
"Well... don't everyone stare. I'm really nervous guys, I shouldn't have even thought about doing this." She was shaking. Oliver took one look at Lorie and immediately walked towards her, behind him walked James.
"Hey, you look great. I'll be here all this time so in case you need anything or you're not feeling comfortable or if you nee-"
"She'll be fine, I'm sure she's going to have fun." Oliver was cut off by John. He came up behind Lorie and made her jump a little to his unexpected visit. "How are you feeling Phelps?" He started fixing her hair.
"Well to be honest, I'm terrified." She looked down at her feet and played with her rings. James went up to her and grabbed her hand.
"I think I chose the perfect girl for this video." James said to her, at that moment John and Oliver left. "You look wonderful Lorie, just have fun with this, don't think about it too much. No one is judging you, no one is going to bully you in here. In fact," he leaned in closer to her, "I don't think we'll get much work done today. You seem to have hypnotized everyone in here." She pulled her hand away from his, blushed and gently pushed his chest.
SETTING:
Suite like room, a California King Size round bed was placed in the middle far away from the walls. Walls were made with velvet in a maroon color, so soft and smelled brand new. There were two nightstands on each top corner of the bedside, a long black table that had fake money piles of $100 bills, a glass container with liquor inside it, 2 short cups and a bucket with ice. When the lights turned off the room turned red, just like she had pictured it.
Lorie started walking around the red room, she passed by the bed and lightly touched it with her finger tips. The feel of soft silk sheets gave her a tingling sensation of sexual desire. She made her way to the long table and poured two glasses of what seemed to be Jack Daniels. After she had served the drinks the lights turned back to normal and in came James from outside.
"Y'all ready to start recordin'?" James asked nervously. He couldn't take his eyes off Lorie, the thought of what she has under that robe was driving him mad. But, he remembers he's married and this is for business only. It's nothing serious, just a video scene for our new, remastered album.
Lorie noticed him being nervous, but she also noticed that he had changed clothes. He had taken off his black button up shirt and replaced it with a black v-neck shirt with a black leather jacket. She could smell his manly cologne. He looked so handsome, his grey hair standing up, his nervous smile and laugh he gave, the way he was trying to look professional and the way he looked at her just melted her. Oh my God he looks so yummy! Calm down Lorie, he's married and this is a job, focus!
"You look so handsome James, what on earth made you change your clothes?" Lorie teased him as she walked towards him from across the bed.
"Well, I figured if you look good, well, why shouldn't I?" James smiled at her.
"Well you didn't look not hot before." Lorie said as she made her way to the long black table and handed him a drink. "Here, maybe this will calm us down a bit."
"Oh, no. I can't, no, I shouldn't. I haven't had a drink in years. It'd b-"
"Just one sip, please, for me?"
James looked at his cup and drank the whole thing. Lorie smiled and drank hers almost as fast as he did. As the burning in her mouth and throat disappeared, she and James had made their way into the room.
RECORDING:
"So, what do I do guys?"
"Ummm... Well, you're the director Lorie, didn't you come up with something?"
