So Far Away [H.S]

Chapter 1

I was nervous.

"And today we have Grace Ellington and Harry Straum"I waved at the live audience as we walked to the three couches set in the middle of the stage.
It wasn't because of this particular interview that I was nervous,it was quite normal.Being an actress I've been through more than a couple thousand interviews but they still manage to make me nervous every time.

"Good morning,it's so great to have you's on the show"the host Renee beamed.

"It's great to be here"Harry spoke.

"Thank you,"I added.The audience clapped as I responded with a warm smile.This is the part where my nerves calm.I always preferred a live audience,
the applause and smiling faces gave the room a relaxed atmosphere.

"So,"she began,"not many celebrity couples manage to come onto the show, so thank you for agreeing to come for the interview as a couple,"

"You're welcome"I replied.Knowing that the only reason my publicist made Harry and I come was because the media hasn't seen us together as a couple together lately and she wanted us to clear that up.

She turned to Harry."So Harry,you're just back from tour,how was that?"
Harry remained slightly slouched as he spoke,"Tour was great,it was a lot of fun,met so many people,and it's good to be home"his British accent coming off thicker than usual."So what are you planning to do now?Are we going to be hearing any more singles?"

"Actually I'm taking some time off,"he replied.

"That's great,"she smiled

"Yeah"

"And Grace,"she turned to face me,"I want to congratulate you on the new movie"the audience clapped.

I gave a light laugh."So tell me,this movie is about a homeless girl,suffering from all these problems that come with poverty and yet still makes it to Harvard,how was it being part of a movie like this?"

"I loved it."I spoke honestly."I love the story so much and it has so much of meaning and I'm just so grateful to be able to be apart of something like this"

"That's great,so with so much to take away from this award winning movie, what do you think is the main message?"I folded my legs as I answered,"that we all have the power of choice.Not over our circumstances,but with how we deal with them"I inwardly gave myself a pat of the back for having practiced deep answers.

"That's good advice,"she smiled."Now, since you and Harry have agreed to come on as a couple,we have a little game.I have a list of questions that I will ask you both and you will answer as many as possible.Whoever answers the most questions in the time given will win and be allowed to tweet something from the losers phone.

We both laughed."I didn't agree to this"Harry joked."May the best player win"I smirked.

Since Harry and I started dating we've been interviewed so many times as a couple,and it's honestly so much more fun.Renee shifted in her seat,"Okay Harry your time starts,"Harry rubbed his hands together getting ready, "Now!"

She read from the cards in her hands, "what movie always makes Grace cry?"
"Forest Gump"

"Not every time,"I chipped in.The audience laughed as Harry tried to shoosh me,"Where is one place Grace desperately wants to travel?"
"India"

"It looks like a beautiful country,"I played,trying to distract him and waste time."Does Grace shower at night or in the morning?"Harry hesitated,"I think both"

"You're living with me for two and a half years and you don't know when I shower,"I playfully mocked."I think it's both,no,it depends"he chuckled.

"Is Grace a light sleeper?"
