Not the Girl I use to be

Blossom's POV

"Action" The director shouted as people rushed around. I couldn't help but look down at my outfit. We're shooting the opening scene. I have to wear glasses and oversized clothes.

"Francesca" I look over to Grayson who plays my best friend in the movie.

"Colton" I run into his arms. My character had just been made fun of in front of the whole school. Greyson hugs me tightly.

"What happened" He asked.

"Nothing don't worry about it" I said.

There was a loud cluster of laughing as everyone flooded over. People pointed and laughed. I was covered in all kinds of sticky substances. This scene brought back all kinds of awful memories. 

How I died...

"Cut" The director yelled.

"Blossom are you ok" The director asked.

I nodded. 

"This is the third time she's zoned out" A voice criticized.

"It's probably hard for her to focus with all those hotties on set" Another voice chimed in.

"Can you blame her" I voice said before all three girls laughed.

Focus Blossom.

Focus...

"Take five" The director said.

I walked off of the set and outside to get some air.

"Are you ok" I heard Greyson ask as he walked closer.

I nodded.

I wasn't. 

I was seconds from balling.

Why did I think I could do this. It's hitting too close to home I can't help but have flashbacks. My shoulders slumped and I held back sobs.  Grayson rubbed my back as he sighed.

"I knew it's hard when you mess up and people criticize you" Grayson said.

"Oh yeah, and when have you been criticized?" I asked.

"When I first started all I did was get criticized I almost quit because of it" He said.

"Really" I asked.

He nodded.

"I've even been fired for sets because I couldn't stop messing up" He confessed.

"Not the famous Grayson Wilder" I teased.

"Ok, that's enough if you keep making fun of me I won't have any pride left" He joked while elbowing me lightly and laughing.

"Well we can't have that can we" I joked.

"Moral of the story don't be so hard on yourself just have fun and remember it's all acting" He said before standing up and reaching a hand down for me. I took it and Grayson and I walked back in together. I felt nervous as eyes fell on me. Grayson squeezed my hand snapping me out of my doubts. I smiled somberly at him before walking over to the set once more.

"Ok let's take it from the top once more" The director shouted.

"Francesca" Grayson said.

"Colten" I said back running into his arms once more.

"What happened" He asked.

"Nothing don't worry about it" I said. 

One person emerged from a crowd of people.
