5 Years Later • (Lauren/You)

Part 12

"So you were adopted?" Sam says

"Yeah, sorry I didn't tell you" I say

"No I get it, that's a rough upbringing" he says

"I tried my best to forget it but my dad's still in the picture" I say

"Have you spoken to him a since?" He asks

"Nope" I say

"Wait... so that guy a couple years ago, after you didn't your first major film, the one who said he was your father and deserved money?" He says

"Yeah that was my real asshole father" I say

"What kind of person does something like that" he says

"I shit one" I say

"Dude I'm sorry" he says

"It's ok, I've grown past it I think" I say

"You think?" He asks

"It still fucks me up sometimes but, I can only learn from it right?" I say

"So the thing with Lauren?" He says

"Yeah, I fucked what ever I fucked up up with her, probably because I'm fucked up" I laugh

"Did you tell her?" He asks

"No" I laugh."I was talking to anonymous and I remembered that day"

"What did you tell her?" He says

"...Everything" I say

"Even the Lauren stuff" he says

"No once I realized I texted you. Why?" He asks

"Oh no reason, I just don't want you saying something you'll regret" he says

"Can't regret it if you don't know the person" I say

"Right..." he says

"Hmm? If it's not that day then why does she hate me?" I say

"You broke up with her right? Maybe she's just bitter still" he says

"I don't know, she never got bitter over petty stuff like that before" I say

"People change" he says

"True" I say

"What's going on?" Noah says half asleep and confused

"We're just talking babe, go back to bed I'll be in in a second" I say

"Okay" he smiles as he walks back into our room

"You gonna tell him?" Sam asks

"Maybe later" I say

"5 years later?" He laughs

"Shut up" I laugh

-

"Ok quiet on set!" I yell before calling action

It was morning and we had an early call time. Today was the last week of shooting.

"How was that?" Noah says after I yell cut

We had gone through a few takes before we finally got a good one, he seemed nervous about something.

"Perfect" I smile. "That's a wrap"

"So what are you doing today? I thought maybe we could try and figure out the Lauren thing" Sam says walking up to me

"Look Sherlock, this isn't your fight" I laugh. "And besides, I actually get to meet anonymous today!"

"What?!" He says

"Face to face, they're doing casting today and need us both" I say

"Does anonymous know?" He says

"I don't know, probably" I say

"Oh cool..." he says

"Why are you always so weird when I bring her up" I say

"I'm not... I just think it's weird that she wants to stay anonymous with such an interesting and true story like that" he says

"I know but she's not obligated to reveal herself. Maybe the ex is psycho and might want to hurt her or something" I shrug

"Maybe..." he says raising his eyes

"...Whatever I should go" I say

"Have... fun" he says

"Ok I will" I say awkwardly

-

"Hey Ramon" I smile as I walk into the casting building

"Hey Y/n! We're just about to get started so make your self at home, I'll call you when we're ready" he says

"Okay thank you" I smile as I set my bags down

"...Y/n?" Someone says

"Yeah?" I say turning around. "Lauren, what are you doing here?"

"I'm.. I-" she starts

"Are you here for auditions?" I ask

"No I- I just wanted to say sorry" she says

"Sorry?" I say

"For being a bitch to you" she says

"I'm confused" I say

"Please don't hate me" She says

"What are you talking about?" I ask

"Ahh Y/n, I see you've already met Lauren" Ramon says

"Yeah... we're acquainted" I say

"Great because you two will probably be working very closely together" he says

Wtf is that supposed to mean? I think to myself.

"...Is she being cast or something?" I ask

"No silly, she's the biopics inspiration, she's anonymous" he smiles
