Unexpected Blessings Part 8

After completing another tiring week down on set and with Rudy working on her crowd control, Evaline had spent Saturday taking the headshots for Jon's client and working on her paper for her literature class.

Currently she was sitting against Rudy's headboard with her laptop and notebook while he laid next to her looking through the pictures on the camera.

"Evaline these are awesome," he told her, clicking through the camera she'd borrowed from Elaine. "Thanks, and I already got their permission to use some of them for the portfolio I have to do for my photography class so I'm halfway done with that," she told him absently as she made notes on The Taming of the Shrew for her English lit class.

Pausing in her note taking she looked at the boy lounging on his bed next to her looking through the camera, "Actually you wouldn't want to help me with the rest of the project would you?" she asked.

"What do I have to do?" he questioned. "I need a few more shots showing different techniques so you just need to pose," she told him. "I think I can handle that," he agreed.

"Thanks," she mumbled, going back to her notes and laptop. "What are you doing for this one?" Rudy asked, leaning against her to get a better view.

Groaning she rubbed her eyes, "I'm doing an analysis of the gender and hierarchy roles in The Taming of the Shrew and how they're still relevant in the modern world. It's honestly hurting my head," she told him, moving her laptop to the nightstand she threw her notebook on the floor before sliding down and burying her head into one of his pillows.

"I love your pillows," she moaned as she yawned.

"You know it's like one in the morning," he told her. Groaning Evaline closed her eyes, "Give me like five minutes and I'll go out to the couch," she mumbled.

Rolling his eyes Rudy pulled the covers over them, shutting the light off on his side, "Just go to sleep," he responded as he got comfortable next to her.

Sometime in the middle of the night Rudy woke up to find Evaline curled up next to him still sleeping. Noticing the lamp on still he leaned over her and flipped it off before settling back down and going back to sleep.

Rolling over Evaline's eyes popped open when her hand came in contact with a warm chest. "Morning," Rudy greeted her as he laid next to her reading through a script. Sitting up Evaline started apologizing, "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to," before he interrupted her. "Shut up. If it bothered me I'd have shoved you off the bed," he told her smiling.

"How's your nausea this morning?" he asked. Rubbing her eyes Evaline swung her legs over the side of the bed before standing up, "So far so good," she told him when she didn't have the urge to throw up.

"You wanna go down to that diner and get breakfast?" he asked, tossing the script towards the end of the bed as he looked at her. "Sure. After that I plan on working on my paper for most of the day," she answered, heading for her suitcase for a change of clothes.

"When do you want to finish the photography?" he asked, going to his closet for clothes. "I have to talk to Brad. Some of the things I was thinking about trying he's got equipment for so maybe sometime this week," she replied, "I'm gonna change," she told him walking out of his room towards the bathroom.

Once the two were ready for the day they met in the kitchen where Chase had left them a note saying he was up at Maddie's, "I think my brother has a crush," Evaline teased. "They're a real life John B and Sarah Cameron right there," Rudy laughed, referring to each of their characters they were playing on the show they were filming.

"You know as I read more scripts I'm totally in love with your character," she told him as the two left the apartment to head down to the car. "Really?" he asked, surprised, "What made you love JJ?" he asked.
