To Catch a Dream ➢ Milo Manheim and Pearce Joza

one.

My plane lands on the ground roughly, making me wake up from my short nap. I pop my neck slightly, and look out the window to see the city of Toronto. It takes a while for the plane to make it off the runway and to the gates. In the meantime, now that I could use my phone, I checked my Instagram. 

I notice the comments made by the Zombies cast on my new post. I smile at them, excited to finally meet them. People begin to get up and collect their bags. I shut my phone off and do the same, eager to get off the plane. 

While I walk to the baggage claim, I feel my phone buzzing in my pocket. As I walk, I answer it.

"This is Sara, right?" I hear on the other line. 

I then stop in my tracks. 

"This is she." I answer, confused. 

"This is Ariel." she said, and I realized who I was talking to.

"Oh, Ariel. Hey." I begin to walk again. "How did you get my number?" I laugh.

"No time to explain that. Chandler and I are waiting by baggage claim to take you to your new apartment." she said making my eyes widen. 

"Oh, okay. I'll be there soon." I hang up and basically run for baggage claim. 

Ariel and Chandler were in Zombies too, and also my new roommates while we stay in Toronto to film. I was also going to spend most of the time filming with them because in the movie they were werewolves like me. Which meant seeing them all the time. 

I get there, only to see that they weren't there. I look around, but there was no sight of them. Before I could turn around, I heard screaming. 

"Sara!" they yelled, making me turn around to see them.

I laughed when they engulfed me in a hug. I've never met these girls before, but right now felt like we've been best friends our entire lives. 

"We're so excited you're here! We're going to have so much fun filming." Ariel said as they let go. 

"Let's get my bag first though." I laugh and they do too. 

As we get to the Uber, they were already telling me everything about Toronto and filming. They've been here for a week now, and they were catching me up on everything. 

"The cast is so nice. You're going to love them all." Chandler added as we arrive to the apartment complex. 

"So does everyone live here?" I ask grabbing my bag out of the trunk. 

"Yup. The same floor too. For the past week, we've hung out every night to get to know each other." Ariel smiled. 

"I wish I could come here sooner." I said, feeling bad about missing the week of getting to know everyone.

"It's okay. All that matters is that you're here now." Chandler says helping me grab my other bag. We head up to our floor, only to be greeted by other people. 

I was getting hugged again, and I couldn't believe how much these people liked to hug. 

They release me and smile at me with wide eyes. 

"You must be Sara." a boy said, only for me to realize it was Pearce. He was another werewolf in the movie. I nod at him, noticing how attractive he was in person. He grabs my hand to shake it, only for me to hold onto it a little longer than normal. 

When I realized we were still holding hands, I quickly dropped my hand looking down at the carpet. I notice his cheeks turn red as well, but I try to ignore it. 

"You're here Sara!" I hear behind me, and I recognized the voice instantly. 

I turn around to see one of my best friends, Kylee. 

Kylee and I have been friends since birth. Both growing up with the dream to act. She got the part to Zombies, while I did other films. She then told me of a chance to be in Zombies 2, and I wanted nothing more than to film with my best friend. 

"Ah!" I scream, jumping into her arms. 

We rarely got to see each other due to our own projects. And now finally, I'll get to see her everyday. 

"I'm so excited you're here. I missed you." she said still holding me tight. 

"I'm excited I'm here too." I say into her shoulder. 

As I look up, I notice another boy was looking at me watching me hug Kylee. I notice that it was Milo Manheim.

Milo and I have met before. I went to the premiere with Kylee, but I didn't talk to anyone really. But I accidentally ran into Milo when I was heading to the bathroom, and that's how I knew who he was. He said he was sorry, and then kept walking. 

Kylee lets go of me, and she grabs my bags helping me find my apartment. I look back at Milo to see him still looking at me. I quickly look away, not bothering to look at him again. 

Chandler opens the door and I couldn't believe how nice the apartment was. It was huge. 

"Who all lives here?" I ask setting my bag on one of the couches. 

"Me, Ariel, and Pearce. And now you." Chandler says pulling me towards a hallway. She opens a door to reveal an almost empty room. It had a bed, a dresser, and a small desk. 

"This is where you'll be staying for the next few months." she said. I thank her, and begin to unpack my things, starting with clothes. As I sort through my things, there was a knock at the door. 

"Come in." I say, not bothering to look up. 

"You got pretty far." I hear the person say. I look up to see Pearce. 

"I'm a quick unpacker." I answer folding some leggings. 

He laughs, sitting next to me on the floor. 

"Well, we're all going out to dinner in 20 minutes. Care to join?" he asks. I look at him, noticing how close he really was. 

"Um yeah. I'll just have to change. Still in my comfy pants." I smile looking down at my legs. 

"Cool. See you in 20." he said getting up, using my leg to push himself up. His hand on my knee lingered slightly, and I couldn't help but get butterflies. 

"Also Sara." he turned around at the door frame. I look up at him. 

"I'm across the hall if you ever need anything." he points to a door across from mine. I nod and he walks out my room.
