Behind the Scenes - Herophine

25

A few days have passed since Hero went to Roger's apartment for a while. I stayed with Anna rehearsing all the lines, understanding each scene and decorating as many pages as possible in the hotel we were staying at. I read the book again, ate delicious things and watched many movies. I needed those moments with her. She is very funny and companion, she told me about her family, her old books and her future projects.

I didn't talk to Hero at the time, he didn't call me, he didn't text me, maybe he was busy with Roger, reading the books... Who knows... Roger didn't send any signals either, which made me get even closer to Anna, having amazing new moments with her to remember.

It was Saturday, with only two days left to start shootings, we were competing for the best drama actor and drama actress, and the best drama movie awards, the internet was going crazy! I was very anxious, Anna even more than me.

After lunch, It was still Saturday, I finally got a message from Hero. I even got scared when I read your name on the phone screen, and the message said:

"Jô, do you want to go out with me tonight? Let's enjoy our last free day?"

A feeling of uncontrolled happiness surged in me, Hero really messes with me, so today I'll let myself go, I want to enjoy every moment, and have moments to remember too, good times with him.

I grabbed my cell phone and started typing, answering his question:

"I'm in, where are you thinking of going? And what time?"

It didn't take long, and he answered me:

"Surprise, I'll be there at 8:00 pm... The uber", and along with the message sent a blinking smiley face, and I replied with a "Okay".

I thought about where Hero could take me and what we were going to do, but at the same time I wondered if I should go with him, if I wasn't doing something wrong by accepting. You're going to get hurt... My thoughts kept on focusing on that, since Hero commented to me that I didn't want this to happen... Still, another part of my brain was: If it's something you want, do it! You're doing something for yourself, it's not affecting anyone, and it's still something, or rather, someone you want! I was self-cheering for date with Hero, I was sure I wanted to go!

The hours went by, I trained my lines, packed my bag, the room, and I got ready to wait for Hero. A while later, I was ready, with a basic purple dress, knee length, and a heel, Hero then, sends a message:

"I arrived."

I got down to meet him, he got out of the car when he saw me in front of the hotel. He motioned for me to come to him. He was beautiful, in a more social outfit, staring at me with a smile in the corner of his mouth, with a look that seemed to see my soul.

I went to him, Hero opened the uber's back door, nodding for me to enter, and sat down after me. In the car, we were silent for a while, always looking out of the corner of my eye, so I asked:

"So, how were the days with Roger?"

"Cool, but I wanted it to arrive Saturday soon."

"Ah... And may I know why?"

"I wanted to see you."

"I thought you wanted stay away from me," I said smiling.

"From you? I don't want distance! I already said, I want to enjoy every moment we have together."

We stared at each other, smiling at each other, then I laid my head on his shoulder, Hero put his arm around my waist, bringing me closer to him, I felt again in the right place.
