They Can Never Know |° Noah Schnapp

Chapter 24🎥

Agents

The car came to a stop at the set, the driver opened the door and walked around to let them out of the car. Y/N's tears had dried at this point but her eyes were still red. She dreaded the moment when someone would ask her what was wrong, and she would have to admit to being so stupid- talking to Jim Kanami, full-stop. 

As Jaeden helped Y/N get out of the car and walk inside the studio, the rest of the cast trailing behind, people gave her knowing looks. Of course they all knew, they'd all read the article. She just hoped that none of them actually believed that garbage. Y/N tried keeping herself busy, she lent a hand in the catering truck, helping them clean and cook. Then she had work to do, she had to go and help shoot a couple of scenes.

As Y/N arrived and went to help one of the camera men frame the shot right, she felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Andy and he looked down at her sympathetically.

"You don't have to help today, I can take over. You uh, well you've looked better." He told her, giving her a playful grin in an attempt to lighten the mood a bit. It didn't really work. Y/N nodded and sighed softly, walking over to one of the benches and sitting down. She had asked one of the crew members as they walked past, if they knew where Noah was, they didn't. After watching the scene getting shot from a distance, and rethinking her life choices- she got up and walked over to her trailer, so she could sit down without people walking past every few seconds. 

She walked to her trailer and opened the door, but stopped in her tracks. A few trailers down, she could see someone sitting on the steps- head in hands. She knew who it was, it was Noah. She took a deep breath before walking over to him and sitting down next to him.

Noah looked up and saw her, giving her a little smile, "Hey, great morning- right?"

Y/N gave a small smile back to him and nodded, "Yep, damn right."

And they said nothing else, they both knew how the other was feeling. They didn't need to talk about it, going on and on about how unfair Jim was being wouldn't make them feel any better. So they supported each other in a silence, hands interlocked as they watched crew members rush about in the distance.

They silence lasted around half an hour before Will came over, eyes immediately spotting Noah and Y/N's hands locked together. He looked away a little before looking back, coughing, "Uh, Andy wanted me to come and get you guys. Your agents have been calling non-stop. I think they're pissed."

And so Y/N and Noah parted ways to call their agents back. Y/N knew they wouldn't be too happy, things like this could ruin careers and it was their agents job to make sure they had a career. Things like this made it a little difficult. Despite the fact that Y/N had prepared herself to get told off, it still surprised her as her agent explained the situation in a hostile tone.

A few hundred miles away, in an office, was Y/N's agent- Miss Hughes, as she made Y/N call her. Sitting at her busy desk piled high with paper work, Miss Hughes sat with a sandwich in one hand and her phone in the other. On the phone with a very annoying client, "Look Missy, the press are all over this- they love this kind of stuff. Couldn't ya have just not gone on that stupid date? Besides that, I've had to go and get lawyers involved. Lawyers! Do you know how much those damn people cost?"

Miss Hughes shook her head and took a bite of her sandwich, talking with her mouth full, "An' ya know what? I'm not just pissed at you, I'm pissed at that Noah kid too. And his agents feelin' the same way. But I'm mainly pissed at that Jim Kanami. That's why I'm gettin' my lawyers involved."

Y/N sighed softly and listened to her agent rant at her down the phone, leaning against her trailer wall and scratching her head. Apparently that 'good for nothin' doughnut lover' wasn't going to get away with this article. And he couldn't just go 'posting that bullshit' without evidence to actually back it up.

And that was all Y/N could think about for the next few hours, even after her agent had hung up the phone. Jim must know that he can't just post that stuff without evidence- he probably had some evidence on Y/N, and there had been a few witnesses there when she 'lied' to him. But that wasn't as bad as what Noah was dealing with, as she thought about it. And Jim defiantly didn't have evidence that Noah had done any of that stuff, Jim had never been on set or around Noah so-

Y/N froze as the truth was finally found, deep in her mind. Jim hadn't been on set. But other people had been. Not all of them had been around Noah though. And the people who had been around Noah were her friends, people she trusted. And that's when she realised how Jim knew he was going to get away with the article.

Someone had sold her out. Someone she knew, trusted and was friends with. And the number of suspects were narrow.
