Smile Beautiful (Theo James fanfic)

Chapter 23

Megan's POV~

Christmas was different, but a good/bad kind of different. It was my first Christmas morning without my dad, but it was the first day I realized how much I love my family. Now I may sound like a Hallmark card when I say this, but this year I truly understood the full meaning of Christmas.

I'm not going to lie; I didn't expect to be in a place like this, let me tell you that. I had no intention of falling for a hot shot movie star at a photo shoot. But I definitely didn't plan on losing the two greatest guys that I've ever known.

This year was tough for me, but through everything that developed I recognized who my true friends were. Maybe I'm sounding a bit mournful, and no one might care about what I have to say, but I'm finding myself at peace with life even when there are still parts of me that remain missing.

But I've had something in the back of my mind since Christmas. What did Theo mean when he said the letter was only Part 1 of his Christmas gift to me?

"Welcome back everyone!" Tasha burst with excitement. "It's the first day back from break, and I know that everyone will be a little off schedule, but please try to stay on task today!"

It's time to get back to business.

"Megan! Meet me in my office please."

"Coming!" I followed.

"Our reporters have come in contact with the new producers of an upcoming movie, and they want us for an exclusive!"

"That's amazing!" I gushed. "So who would I be taking pictures of?"

"Oh, you won't be taking pictures Megan."

"Oh..."

"The director specifically asked for you to come to their last audition for their new motion picture."

"Really? Why do they want me?"

"No questions about that right now Miss. Worth." she looked at her watch. "It starts at noon. I assume you know the place already."

"Yes I do, but noon? Tasha, it's 11:30 and it takes a half an hour to get there without traffic!"

"Don't worry, I'll call them and say that it's my fault. Just hurry please!"

Theo's POV~

Auditions make me anxious. We have to go into a full room of people there judging us by our flaws. One little mistake and the odds of making the role are little to none.

To make it even worse, this movie is on of the hardest to audition for. Not only is it in old time English, but they've had over 10,000 auditions for the lead male role.

"They said she's on her way." a man muffled from the door.

"Do you think she'll accept it?" a woman added.

"I really hope so." he continued. "I highly doubt that she would decline, but- there she is!"

"Sorry, I'm late. I hope you got a call from my boss."

I'd know that voice from anywhere.

"Of course, please follow us."

"Theo?" she managed so smile.

"Megan."

"Miss Worth?" the man interrupted.

"Coming!" she continued to the room.

Well, this just adds to my nerves.
