Okay guys so I've decided to at least try to start updating again but you know me - I suck at it. Anyways, here's another chapter for you guys.

------

A week later the movie is kind of almost done and I couldn't be happier about it. Filming in this climate really gets to me and I just want to go home even though I'm really excited about this movie.

I'm sitting on the edge of my bed, brushing my wet hair that just got washed in the shower. It's almost midnight and I'm literally so tired that I could fall asleep in this position right now.

As soon as I'm done I crawl down under the thick and warm duvet to get some much needed sleep, but as soon as I close my eyes I hear a knock on the door. I try to ignore it, thinking that it's Sam or maybe even Francis, but then I hear it again.

"Who is it?" I ask, almost screaming at the top of my lunges because of the frustration.

"It's me." Josh "Am I interrupting you in something?"

I sit up "Uh, no, wait a second."

I throw my legs over the edge of the bed and then I make my way across the room to finally shut the door open.

He smiles widely when he sees me, standing in front of him wearing only a oversized t-shirt "Hi."

I smile back at him "Hi, you wanna come in?"

"No, actually I came here to show you something." he says "But it's outside so you might wanna put some more clothes on."

A few minutes later we arrive at the beach where we sit down in the warm sand. The sun has started to go down over the horizon and the colors are beautiful.

"You can see the sunset from my balcony you know." I say to Josh, starting to get really tired.

He smiles "I know but there's something else I wanted to show you."

"Okay, what is it?" I ask, closing my eyes for a few seconds to get rid of some tiredness.

He puts his arms around his knees and sighs while looking out over the sea "They seem to be gone now."

"Who?"

He looks at me again and smiles widely "There were dolphins jumping around."

A huge smile appears on my lips and suddenly I don't feel so tired anymore "Really? Dolphins?"

He nods "I could see them from my balcony but I thought that it'd be cooler to see them from down here."

"Oh." I nod "It's okay. I'm sure we'll see them another night."

"Yeah," he sighs ", I'm sorry I brought you down here. I know you wanted to sleep."

A small giggle leaves my throat and I stand up, bringing him with me "I said it's okay."

"Really?"

"Yes, really."

He puts one of his arms around my back and I lean my head on his shoulder "Well thank you for almost watching the dolphins with me."

I giggle once again "Thank you for bringing me with you."

-

My alarm wakes me up the next morning and even though I got to sleep for almost ten hours I feel more tired than ever.

I get up from bed while jawing and then I put the same clothes on as yesterday knowing that I won't be wearing these for much more than an hour this morning.

After brushing my teeth and putting my hair up in a ponytail I leave my room to meet up with Jena like every morning. Today, she's the one waiting for me by the elevators.

"Morning sunshine." she says when she sees me.

I nod "Hi."

"So," she clears her throat while entering the elevator ", did you see the dolphins last night?"

I shake my head as the doors closes "No, I missed them."

"Really?" she raise one of her eyebrows "I'm pretty sure I saw Josh and you down on the beach."

"Uh," I clear my throat nervously ", they were gone by the time we got there."

"Oh." she nods "So it's back to normal between you guys?"

I turn my head to look at her "Back to normal?"

She nods once again "Yeah you know, him flirting with you and you flirting with him but none of you realizing what's going on between you guys."

I bite my lip, looking down at my feet "There's nothing going on between us." I say, lying to both myself and her.
