Chapter 2

Elsa

"Jack?"

"Elsa?"

"So, Elsa you made it. Have a seat next to Jack." Dad said and I did as he said.

"Now, answering your question Jack. Well, our studio is going to be producing a new movie. And the director we hired, will be in charge of the characters, script, the usual. And the movie will be a romance movie. And he specifically picked you two to be the couple. Of course, I'd deny it since you two have some issues, and I respect that. But I can't for the sake of the company. So, we have your scripts and you'll start shooting and practicing some time before the end of the week. Is that clear?" Dad said and I looked over at Jack.

He did the same and we looked back at dad.

"Yes sir." Jack said. I grunted before mumbling, "Yes dad."

Mom pulled out two scripts and gave them to us. I took mine. The title of the movie was called "Restrained"

"What does the title mean?" I asked and flipped through the pages.

"We don't know since we can't read the script. I guess we'll leave you guys be to talk some of this craziness out. Let's leave them for awhile, hun." Mom said and the two of them left.

It was silent. Jack turned to me.

"So..." He trailed off.

"So..." I repeated.

"I guess we're playing as a couple." He said and I nodded. "I miss high school." I mumbled. "Why?"

"It was easier to talk to you." I admitted. "Yeah, I won't forget." He said. "Forget what?"

"That we dated." He said. "Oh, yeah. That." I said. He nodded and it became silent again.

"Do you want to, maybe go out for a drink?" He asked. I gave him a look. "Like, coffee. Or something else. So we can talk." He said.

"... Sure. But we're taking your car, one of my body guards are taking it back home." I said standing up.

"Why?"

"Because I thought that my mom would drive me back home. But I guess I'll be spending some time with you." I said and he nodded before following me out the room.

We walked down the hallways and into the elevator.

He pressed the lobby and the doors closed.

This is so awkward... Not only because we have to play as love interests in a movie, but also because we went out in high school. But we broke up, Jack was flirting with this other girl named Rapunzel or something like that.

We reached the lobby and when the elevator doors opened we both stepped out. We walked out the lobby and walked over to his car.

He unlocked it and opened the passenger seat door for me. I gave him a small grin, barely noticeable and went in. He shut the door and got into the driver's side.

We put our scripts in the back seats. "Where do you want to go?" He asked as I put my bag in between us.

"Let's just go to the outlet, they have a froyo shop there." I said happily. "Still like froyo, I see." He said and started driving.

"What do you mean by still?"

"In high school we went there all the time because you were obsessed with froyo." He said.

"Oh." I said and felt my cheeks get hot.

"It's not embarrassing at all, if anything it's cute."
