How to Date a Celebrity

Chapter 8

Your POV

I didn't stay offset long. Probably for two days, I was out but not longer than that. I contacted Martin about my shoots and he said that my scenes are ready whenever I am. It wasn't hard to get back on track of things, so it didn't take long to get the scenes done. Scarlett even missed me on set. We were on a break from filming for a couple of weeks so I split my time with Scarlett and get some time for myself. Right now, I'm spending some time with myself and a couple of friends that flew out to see me from my hometown. We were sitting at an outdoor cafe just catching up.

"I'm so glad that you're doing great out here Y/N," Ashley says.

"I thought that you would have still flopped out here when we were still in high school," Justin says, teasingly.

Justin was one of the few bullies I had in high school that made my life a living hell. Ever since he started dating Ashely, he's apologized for the bullying and helped stop the others from bullying me as well. He's still a little snarky to me sometimes, but I take that in stride.
"I'm glad that I haven't just yet," I tell.
"I'm just glad that I could get out of Y/H/T. I love it, don't get me wrong, but I need some time away." Ashley tells.
"I can get that," I tell.

We began talking about what has been happening at home and in our lives when Justin gets a shocked look on his face.
"Still getting starstruck I see," I say, taking a sip of tea.

"I can't believe you get to see this every day. Wherever you look, you see a celebrity." Ashley squeals.
"There's Scarlett Johansson too," Justin tells.

I turn in my seat and see it was indeed Scarlett. She was with someone, but I couldn't see who, since they had their back to us. I could tell it was female but didn't know who that female figure was. She turned and I paled at who it was. Scarlett's ex-girlfriend and "supposed" mother of her child, Hailee Steinfeld. Scarlett bends to kiss Hailee and I finally turn away from them. I didn't let it show on my face that I was upset since I didn't tell my friends that I was dating Scarlett. I only told Emma who was my manager and could block any rumors that start of us together.

"Man, this is all awesome. Celebrities are everywhere." Justin says.
"Yeah and I'm somehow grouped into them," I tell.

I look around and see a group of paparazzi coming down the walkway. I grab my phone and scroll to the siren that everyone uses for paparazzi coming. I max out the volume and look to my friends.
"You might want to cover your ears," I tell.
They do and I play the siren. Many of the celebrities scatter hearing the siren and the paparazzi swear as they retreat. Once I see them gone, I turn off the siren and pack my things.
"Paparazzi are ruthless on getting rumors started. When someone plays the siren, it alerts any nearby celebrity to run and for paparazzi to leave. Meaning I have to go." I tell.
"Well, we're going to go to our hotel. Call us when this dies down." Justin tells.
