What r u talking abt?

You 2 were spotted holding hands !!

Fine ig we've been sorta hanging out
Recently nothing big but...

Y/n p.o.v.:
I guess I am going to have to get more used to lying to people like that if I want this to be believable. If Emma knew that was what I was doing she would be so hurt. But this is part of the plan and I made a promise to Tom. She'll understand, Em gets me like that.

I pulled myself out of bed and stumbled towards the bathroom. Tom would be here to get me any minute now so I better get ready.

After I put on a little bit of makeup I strolled down stairs and grabbed breakfast at the table since I was surprisingly early this morning. I sat across the table from my dad reading the paper and next to my mom who was enjoying her morning wake up coffee. "Your up early?" My mom said to me, saying what I knew they both had to be thinking.

"Thought I would eat breakfast with you guys since Tom is taking me to set."

"Wow that's twice this week? Were you two this close last movie?" Mom said while dad peaked his head over the newspaper after hearing talks of a new boy.

"Not really, but our characters stories are more involved this movie so we have more time to get close..." Yet another lie I'd have to tell. My phone then vibrated with a text from Tom saying he was here. Just in time. "That's Tom. Gotta go. See ya!" I said half hugging mom and blowing a kiss to dad, while grabbing a croissant for Tom per his request yesterday.

I got in his car and said "Here is your food for being my chauffeur!" I giggled.

"Oh wow my very own croissant, things are getting serious huh." He laughed too.

I just blushed and smiled at him, not quite remembering that it wasn't real yet. I'll be able to keep my feelings out of this, I'm an actress this is what I do for a living. Right?

Later when we got to set, I checked the schedule to see what scenes I have coming up. The first thing I saw was that Tom and I have scene coming up, perfect time as any I guess. "Hey Tom come look we have a scene soon,"

He walked up behind me and snaked his hands around my waist, I seriously keep forgetting what really is going on and almost jumped in confusion. Luckily I kept my composure and went along with it, earning confused looks from Bonnie and Evanna. "Wow we have one tomorrow see...We should get food after or something?" He said looking at the schedule too. "Can't wait to see ya in action partner" he whispered into my ear and then walked away to talk to Dan and Rupert. I smiled to myself as he walked away.

Then I walked over to Bonnie and Evanna while they were still staring at me with their jaws dropped. Bonnie was the first to speak " Woah Woah Woah... What was that all about?"

"What do y-" I started to say.

"You so know what we are talking about!" Evanna said now.

"Her and Tom are totally a thing!" Emma said walking up behind us.

"Woah! Way to expose me geez!!"

"Someone had to! But I mean I'm totally here for it you seem happy around him." Emma said.

"I second that!" Evanna said now.

"I third it!" Bonnie accompanied.

"Well, I guess at least you all approve!" I giggled. "Sleepover soon to fully discuss?"

"Sooo down!!" Dan said in his high pitch 'girl voice'.

"Girls only!!" I said messing up his hair with my hand.

"So if I throw on a wig and some makeup can I come?" Rupert said now joining Dan.

"You can go anywhere you want with us if we get to see you in makeup!" Evanna said joking around.

"All right, all right enough joking I've got to get hair and makeup!" I said waving to the group.

"Hold on! I'll come with!" Dan said jogging to catch up with me.

I stopped and waited for him, so we could walk together. "So do you wanna go do something tomorrow? I've only got one scene." Dan asked.

"Actually, I have plans we Tom. Maybe some other time?" I said flashing him a sad smile.

"Oh... you guys are pretty close now huh? I saw him hug you earlier."

"Uh yeah... I guess we are sorta a thing." I never knew Dan would have ever noticed that, I never thought he payed attention to me that way. Lying to everyone is going to be harder than I thought.

"Oh...congrats" He said. The vibe around us suddenly changing from light to a little sad.

I didn't ever think he liked me but why is he acting like this.  We walked in silence for a while until we came up to the hair and makeup trailer.

"Well this is me..." I said softly.

Dan waved "see ya."

Why was he acting like this?
