Serena was not a patient girl, especially when it comes to work. That's why she always tries her best to come to the site at least ten minutes before the time given to them, it's just annoying when you have to wait for people.

And currently, they're waiting for Harry who was already an hour late. His styling team was waiting for him for an hour and the scheduling turns had to be adjusted because he failed to arrive on time. It was beyond unprofessional.

"Oh, thank God!" She hears someone say, she turns her head to the back and sees Harry walking in. His hair was a mess and his eyes had dark circles around them, he looked like he didn't sleep at all. "You're late." One of the producers say, it was said in a kind tone though, like just asking for a reason why.

If she was late for an hour, she was certain she wouldn't be given the same treatment.

"I'm really, really sorry. I had some problems with the album release and I had to resolve it with the team. I am really so sorry, everyone. I promise to never let it happen again." Everyone really didn't seem to mind the predicament Harry put all of them in and gave him forgiving smiles which made Serena want to roll her eyes.

"Alright, let's get Harry dressed up."

Filming got finished about two hours later than expected since, of course, Harry was late. Most of the people were just leaving and some were in trailers fixing and organizing the things used on the set.

Serena was in her trailer, removing all the heavy makeup she had on for the entire day since she had to film several scenes from morning to night. She also wore a black hoodie she brought from home since the dresses she had to wear were not as comfortable as she thought.

She grabbed her backpack and a duffel bag, her sneakers noisily dragging along the rough roads their trailers were parked in before ultimately stopping once she saw the trailer next to her with the lights on. Her brows scrunched, most actors are already home, why is that particular trailer still lit?

Serena carefully walked towards the door, not even glancing at the name plastered on it and knocked twice before heading inside. "Hello? Everybody's heading home already." She calls out, there was not a single response though.

All she heard was snoring.

She made her way to the back and saw Harry on the couch, his lips were parted as soft snores were let out of them. Serena couldn't help but laugh at the sight, grabbing her phone and taking a snap at the sleeping male.

"Harry, wake up." She finally says, slightly shaking his body to try to wake him up. Harry just hummed, nodding his head as if he was agreeing, he remained asleep though and Serena found herself getting amused with his antics.

"Sleepyhead, wake up. You gotta head home." Harry shuffled on the couch, humming a bit louder. "Yeah, yeah, I'm just gonna rest for a bit." He mumbles out incoherently. "It's almost morning, everyone's going home."

Those words were enough to wake the man up, he jolted upwards in shock before glancing at his watch. He still looks shaken up and sleepy, his eyes were droopy and he was literally weak on his feet. "You okay?" She asks.

Harry nods hesitantly and rests his head on his hand. "Yeah, just a headache." Serena sighs. That was stress and fatigue kicking in, Harry must have had zero sleep lately and he's been working too much. "You're in no condition to drive home, you're a mess."

Harry didn't say a word, if anything, he agrees with her. He was dizzy and his legs were giving out on him every time he exerts too much effort. He looks up though and sees Serena's hand extended towards his. "Come on, I'll get you home. Can you at least walk to my car? I can't carry you, you know?"
