The Blindside of Love (Camren) Altern Versión

Chapter 35

"I got your new publicity schedule," Ally announced, trademark clipboard under her arm. She leaned against the make-up counter and waited for the actress to respond.

Lauren yawned while her make-up lady finished making her beautiful and angelic.

"Tell me it's a blank sheet of paper," she said flatly, glancing straight ahead at her reflection. It always amazed her how a little make-up could transform her into such an innocent, unassuminglooking creature. An innocent, unassuming creature that was about to have sex for the first time. I am so not looking forward to shooting this scene.

"Sorry," Ally apologized, flipping through the pages. "I'd have to say you're be booked until Guardian starts shooting again. And then you're booked all over again."

Lauren simply mumbled under her breath.

She wasn't in a good mood that morning. She'd barely slept. Not with murderous thoughts racing through her mind all night. She wasn't entirely sure how she would go about killing Nathan, but she was certain she wouldn't spend much time in jail because of it. O.J. got off. And I'm much cuter than he is.

Then there was the movie issue. She was torn in all sorts of directions with that particular problem. She'd read the script and realized after finishing it, that she shouldn't have. Because now she wanted the role. Damnit. I could so nail that character.

"Totally," she added out loud, much to the confusion of those around her. "Are we done here?" she snapped at the make-up woman whose name she'd never quite gotten.

"All done."

Lauren  got off the chair and started walking toward the set, perfectly aware that Ally was trailing behind her. "I don't want to do this next scene," she found herself admitting when her assistant caught up to her.

Ally looked up at the actress and shrugged helplessly. "At least he's ...cute?" she offered. Lauren thought it best not to comment.

"Are you going to the cast party later?" Ally asked hesitantly.

"I'm not sure yet," Lauren  replied.

Depends if I manage to get through this scene without having a conniption.

She reached her destination a moment later and found Noah already there, talking to Charlize . The rest of the crew ran around, setting up the lighting for the scene. Lauren glanced at what was to be Cody's apartment. Nothing out of the ordinary. Couch, entertainment center, kitchen, et cetera. The next set over was Cody's bedroom. The setting of my demise.

"Lauren ," Charlize greeted. "Come over a sec?"

Lauren approached the director, nodding briefly at Noah. She couldn't quite meet his gaze. Even though she'd done this before, every time seemed to make her more nervous than the last. Maybe it was the fact that she had never really done that before. Guess that's why they call it acting. She focused her attention on Charlize , and for the next twenty minutes went over the last details of the scene.

Blocking, pacing and so on and so forth.
"This is it guys," Charlize said, smiling a bit sadly. "Last day of filming."

Lauren glanced down at her costume. It felt odd playing Kiara without wings. Guess I'll have to get used to it. I'm human now. She paused as she corrected herself. She's human now. She'd been playing the character so long sometimes she forgot whom was whom. I'm sure they have doctors for this kind of thing.

"Places everyone!" Charlize called.

Lauren walked over behind the prop door to Cody's apartment. She took a few deep breaths.
