Months In The Future-

"OK, Leah. We're up to the scene where you realise you're in love with Toby and you start ferociously making out with him."

My Director, Mark, smirks.

I blush a deep red and hide in my now bushy hair. (My hair person thought it would look hot and give me the 'sex' appeal.) 

Elijah and I have been acting for months now, but it is sure to be awkward. Yes, I admit, I've had a crush on him since I had my first conversation with him, but I've never imagined myself kissing him! The thought, alone, makes me all but die on the spot!

"Y-yes, Director," I mumble.

Elijah looks at me and smirks. I glare at his feet, unable to look at his smooth green eyes.

"You two remember your lines?" Mark asks as he points to our scripts.

Elijah starts laughing and I begin fumbling with my jacket,

"Of course we do." 

I've remembered every word... Every intake of breath... The space Elijah and I should have... How many seconds until we... Uh, until our lips... Ummm... 

AAAHHHHH!!!!

Then, Madam Lauren calls for us to take our places.

I take a deep calming breath and see Elijah smiling, encouragingly. 

"And... ACTION!!"

Suddenly, I'm no longer Leah Heart, I'm Edith Charles. And Elijah Miles suddenly turns into Toby Garrison.

"Seriously, Toby... Do you really want to hear it!?" I growl, my voice the perfect pitch, and my expression showing only pure anger.

'Toby' slowly raises his head and glares at me,

"Yes..." He replies, quietly.

I clench and unclench my fists, just as Mark suggested I do,

"Fine, then! Listen closely, you evil little mongrel!" 

I march over to him until we're just centimeters apart. I look up at his mouth, as he's inches taller than I am,

"I LOVE YOU!!" I yell at his calm face, "I LOVE YOU, TOBY GARRISON!!!" Moisture begins to appear in my eyes,

"You're the greatest thing that's ever happened in my entire fuc-!" I yell, my eyes closing in outrage as tears roll over my eyes.

I've been getting really good at crying on demand, I almost don't have to think about it... 

But, just on cue, my lips are crushing against Toby's. My eyes open in shock but the tears keep rolling. I reach my hands and place them protectively on his face and lean into the kiss.

I'm secretly shocked by how great it feels, and how good at kissing I am. When I told Elijah that this would be the first kiss I'd ever had, he chuckled and didn't believe me. 

My eyes closed as the kiss builds more passionately and I have to continually gasp for air.

"Aaannnddd... CUT!!! Perfect you two!" Mark congratulates.

Lauren giggles,

"Yes, very well done... For your first time."

While Lauren and Mark discuss how perfect my kissing expertise are, Elijah and I resume our kiss. Sure, this was acting and stuff... but we hadn't broken apart yet. In so many ways, we were actually kissing each other! As Leah and Elijah! 

And it was no, 'peck on the lips', we were aggressively making out with each other. To people watching the movie, it would all be seen as acting, but we were actually, fully, passionately, making out. In such a manner, that if my Father were here, he'd flip out and separate us himself!

I couldn't grasp it, Mark was mumbling things to himself, Lauren was giggling and I could hear my best friend Katie screaming in excitement...

"THE SEXUAL TENSION FINALLY CAUGHT UP WITH THEM!!!" I hear the snap of Katie's camera, I pull away suddenly as the flash of the camera frightens me,

"Nu-uh!" Elijah says, crossly.

He pulls my face to his again and I wrap my arms around his neck as he wraps his around my waist.

"ZACH! YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THIS!!" Katie squeals.

I smile, gleefully under Elijah's lips. He looks down at my lips and returns the smile,

"I finally got you." He moans when we broke apart.
