This book, told from the perspective...
"I can't fucking believe it, man. I knew you guys were sneaking off to be with each other every night, but, I...you know. I thought you two were just screwing around," Miles said as we hit up Kraft services between scenes.
"Come on, dude. I knew it was more immediately. Despite what either of them tried to say. I knew he was in love with her like...instantly. She took a little longer to realize it, I think, but it was so obvious," Mikey said.
"You're serious? When did you know?" Miles asked Mikey as he tapped his chest with the back of his hand.
"The day we were all filming in the apartment. The way the two of them kept looking at each other...it was so obvious."
"When did you know?" Miles asked me.
"That I was in love with her?"
"Yeah," Mikey confirmed.
"Oh man. I realized I was in love with her the night after the infamous hockey game. I definitely fell in love with her our first day on set. She's always had my attention though, since the first day I met her, but obviously I could never act on anything because she always had a boyfriend. It's horrible what she went through. Am I a dick for thinking it all happened so her and I could finally be together?"
"I mean, you are definitely a dick. But, I don't think you're a dick because you had the hots for her when she had a boyfriend. Or for realizing things worked out the way they should have," Miles replied as he placed his hand on my shoulder and looked me in the eye.
"How is everything now though? After she found out about ...you know," Mikey asked me.
"Better now. I think she got spooked. I don't blame her for that. I really wasn't trying to hide it from her. I had no way of knowing what was going to happen when we were at my parents and it all happened so fast. What was I supposed to say? "Thanks for the mind-blowing sex and for finally admitting you love me too, but just so you know, I didn't actually wait around for you, and I fucked a different girl?" I think she understands now it didn't mean anything and it was before her. Apparently, when Mackenzie told her, she intimated that we were like, actively sleeping together."
"Well, I hope you realize how lucky you are that she was so quick to forgive, especially given the circumstances," Mikey said.
"Not at all surprising. I told you to be careful with that one...but, this could have gone very differently. You're lucky it didn't. And we love her, like she's our own sister. Don't fuck this up. Or you're going to have us to answer to," Miles added.
"I'm not going to fuck this up. I know how lucky I am, trust me."
"So, when does she get back?"
"Two more days. I'm dying man. I almost flew back to LA this weekend to see her, I miss her that badly."
"You make me want to throw up. Who are you?"
"Speaking of, I'm going to see if I can catch her for a few minutes before we have to go back to set."
"Yeah, whatever. Go be one of those couples," Miles said as he made a gagging motion.
I settled into the trailer and locked the door behind me so I could have some privacy as I called her on FaceTime.
I was about to give up when she finally answered and the video feed connected.

"Hey handsome," she smiled at me as her gorgeous, makeup-free face greeted me on the screen.
"Wow," was all I managed to get out initially. "You...you look amazing. Other women must hate you...that you can look like that all the time."
"Stoppppp," she whined out and I could hear Anna saying something sarcastic in the background.
"Looks like I caught you at a good time," I laughed, noticing a grocery aisle full of bottles of wine and she was holding a box of pizza.
"Oh, we stopped at Whole Foods for some pizza and wine before settling in for the night. The girls are all coming over later so we can talk about you," she teased me. "So, if your ears are ringing later, you'll know why."
"I'll keep that in mind."
"How are you? How's filming?"
"I'm good. I miss you terribly. I meant what I said before. Waking up without you next to me is the absolute worst. I hate it. Filming is going good otherwise. We're filming the 'Thanksgiving' scene today, so it's a long day ahead of us."
"I miss you too. Only a few more days though."
"How are things going with you?"
"Good...I bought a house yesterday. I close two days before Christmas. So, tomorrow I just have to meet with the interior decorator so he can get some things the house will need...and then make arrangements to get everything all moved in. And then, I get to come back to you," she giggled.
"That's great! Where at? Are we going to be neighbors?"
"...Not exactly," she hesitated.
"Oh man, you're not moving downtown, are you?"
"No...Pacific Palisades."
"Wow! The suburbs! That's not so bad. It's what? Like 30 minutes from me?"
"30 minutes without any traffic maybe. Probably like an hour most times of day."
"I've waited my whole life for you, I can drive an hour in traffic to come see you," I laughed.
"I want to punch you both in your faces right now," Anna deadpanned.
"One more thing, then I should get going," she laughed.
"What's that?"
"Last night...we called my parents. Well, I called them, but, Anna held my hand while I did it," she said as she made an anxious face, waiting for my response.
"Baby! That's great! How did it go?"
"...It went...ok? I think? I don't think we necessarily resolved anything, but my dad was so happy to hear from me. I think he was crying most of the conversation...and he just like...he doesn't show his emotions like that. He's always stoic."
"Well, I'm sure it's because he was so happy to hear from you. I'm so proud of you for taking that step. That was a really brave thing to do."
"It was rough, I'm not going to lie."
"So, what happens now?"
"Well...they're going to come out here after Christmas for a visit. I offered for them to stay with me at the new house, but my mom wants to stay in a hotel, so...I don't know how to feel about that."
"That's probably for the best babe. Don't take it personally. It's going to take time to get used to each other again. It's good for everyone to have their own space."
"You're right. I love you."
"You guys are making me want to throw up," Anna said in the background.
"Ok, sounds like I should let you get going. I just wanted to call and say, I really miss you. I can't wait to see you. And I love you too."
"Bye babe," she said as she blew me a kiss and disconnected the call.
