my first shoot for stranger things season 4 was this afternoon and i was pretty scared. i really didn't think that i was going to do so well along side the others. they're really good actors, i've seen it when i watched the show. my alarm went off to get ready for the shoot and it just made my nerves shoot up even more! i decided to take deep breaths and try to calm myself down. i calmed myself down enough to get ready for the day.  i decided i didn't want to get all dressed up because i knew they were just going to change my outfit before we started shooting. i just threw on some sweats and a fleece sweater with some black and white fila's.

i looked at myself in the mirror and fluffed my hair before grabbing my moped keys and leaving.

i entered the studio and looked around at the empty, grey, bleak space. why was it so... sad in here? i walked forward a few steps before hearing a screeching from across the studio. i looked in the direction of the sound and saw sadie barreling towards me. my eyes widened and i scrunched up in fear. she jumped into me and we both fell to the ground. i looked at sadie, who was currently sitting on top of me, and laughed.

'what the hell, sadie?' she just laughed and rolled off me. i got up and dusted myself off before stretching out my hand to help sadie up. 'i'm sorry,' she said, 'i was just excited to see you! we haven't seen each other in, like, hours.' i rolled my eyes and wrapped my arm around sadie's. she walked me over to a part of the studio that was full of set directors and tables and everything. yes, that sounded bleak, but it was better than where i was before when i had just entered. i saw the rest of the cast standing around the snack table, eating and talking with each other. 'i'm baaaack,' sadie said in a sing-song voice to announce our presence... well, what seemed like mostly her's.

they all looked up from the table and waved towards us. noah waved us over to where he was standing. i stood next to noah and looked over the table of possible snacks that i could eat. 'here,' i looked at noah, who was talking with a full mouth of food, with a chocolate covered something in his hand, 'try this.' i looked at him skeptically and he just shoved the food closer to me. i opened my mouth and the food noah was holding got nearer. when it reached my mouth, i bit down and began chewing. i immediately recognized the flavor to be that of my favorite girl scout cookie - thin mints.

i smiled as the nostalgic taste of the cookie and saw noah holding the box of cookies out for me. i took the book and began to eat the cookies, practically by the handful. noah looked at me like i was a crackhead tweaking outside of 7-eleven. 'what,' i asked with a mouth full of cookies. 'umm... nothing.' he told me. 'have you gotten everything done yet?' i looked at him with an eyebrow raised. he obviously got the message, so he continued to elaborate. 'i mean, your hair and makeup and things like that.' i shook my head.

he gestured towards the rack of clothes at the side of the wall with a woman organizing them. i gave him a tight lipped smile, did a 'thumbs up', and walked over to the woman.

i saw taylor come into the studio in, basically sweats. she still pretty, even when she seemed to stop trying. maybe i shouldn't say that. i mean, it may be true, but i don't think it would be good for me to catch feelings for a co-star. especially one that's someone else's love interest. maybe, we could switch things up a bit. y'know... different love interests? nah, no one would ever go for that. the fans love millie and i being love interests (in real life -- not that we are -- and on screen) way too much.

i looked up to see taylor with noah, in what seemed like a very romantic state. he was feeding her a thin mint! who does that? hand feeding your friend. it's not like she's his baby. i scrunched up my nose and huffed out. i pushed my hair back out of my face and put my hands on the table. 'what's going on with you,' gaten asked me. i just shook my head. he raised an eyebrow at me and began a conversation with caleb. i saw taylor shoving cookies into her mouth from across the table and smiled. she looked like a cute chipmunk stuffing her mouth with nuts (not sexual).

i smiled even wider at the image that i had created in my head. i saw taylor walk away from the table and my eyes followed her towards the clothing rack. she must have been getting ready for the shoot. i walked over to the end of the table where sadie and noah were. noah raised his eyebrows at me and quickly smiled at me. 'so,' i began to talk to noah, 'what uh, what's going on with you and taylor?' both noah and sadie looked at me and began laughing simultaneously.

i looked between the two and felt the self-consciousness set in. 'w-what is it?' noah tried to calm down his laughing before saying, between breaths, 'dude, we're just friends.' i shook my head and rose my eyebrows. 'really,' i said, rather loudly i might say. 'yes,' noah placed his hand on my shoulder as a way to assure me what he was saying was true, 'really.' i felt my lips begin to turn up into a smile unconsciously. 'she definitely isn't into me,' noah began pulling out his phone and typing something, 'haven't you seen the articles?'

he showed me a new article on his phone.

Newest Stranger Thing's Cast Member, Taylor Morgan, Has A Secret, Not-So-Secret Crush On Finn Wolfhard

i skimmed through the article and saw pictures from her instagram of me with captions like, 'finn needs to stop being so damn CUTE!!'. i smiled and began to blush. 'looks like finnie has a little crush,' millie smiled at me. 'that is...' i paused, 'not of importance and will be kept between us.' millie chuckled. 'don't worry, finnie boy. secrets safe with me.'
