Premonitions ( a Johnny Depp love story)
Chapter 1: A new journey begins.
Oh my god! I'm gonna be late!", Eleanor panicked as she jumped out of her bed. The neon red lights on her alarm clock, on the nightstand next to her bed, read 9 a.m. "I only have about half an hour to get there. Better hurry up!", she thought to herself. She forgot to set her alarm clock for an hour earlier so she'd just freaked out when she realized she had overslept. Quickly, she got ready and hurried out of her apartment, without having breakfast.
Today was the day that her destiny was going to be defined. She had got a phone call just a few days before the big meeting she was now heading to, telling her Tim Burton was interested in having her in his next movie. She walked in a fast pace, watching as a big building, at which the meeting was being held, got closer. Luckily enough, she lived near downtown L.A so it took her about 15 minutes to get to the building. Panting from her race, she enters the tall building and immediately rushes to the elevator. She impatiently waits for a couple of people to get out of it and then gets inside. Pressing the button to the 10th floor, Eleanor suddenly feels a somehow familiar strong scent of coffee, cigarettes and man cologne. So familiar that it sends her mind straightly to the dream she had last night. The dream she's been having almost every night, for almost 2 years now. Once again, the vision of her laying on a big bed, with white, soft sheets. With her eyes closed, a small smile draws on her lips as she inhales that same strong, though lovely smell. A pair of strong arms are resting around her waist. 'I love you, Eleanor', a low, husky voice says in her ear. She turns to see a pair of beautiful eyes staring at her and that's when she wakes up. The sound of elevator doors opening sends the remembrance of her recurrent dream away. She walks outside and goes to the reception. The tall, dark haired women behind it asks her her name and then tells her to go to the first door on her left. She does as she's told and reaches the meeting room. A few people are already inside, around a table and talking when they notice her. She hesitantly steps inside.
'Miss Parker, I assume.', the man tells her. 'Yes', she nods. He presents himself as the movie's producer and motion her to have a seat. A few more people are presented to her and she's handed a script. It reads Sinful by Tim Burton, on its cover. She grins at the director's name as it's been her favorite since childhood and now she gets the opportunity to be in one of his movies. She was nervous as it was her first big role on the big screen. She has been on another movies before, but so far it had been only small parts, nothing to get noticed for. She opens the script and quickly reads through it. The names Violet and Johnathan are continuously displayed across its pages. She's just trying to figure out what the plot is about when two figures entering the room caught her attention. A man with crazy hair and blue lensed glasses who was obviously Tim Burton and a younger guy with a black beanie. Eleanor's eyes widened as she realized who the guy in a beanie was. Was he going to be in the movie? She was about to be on the movie with Johnny Depp? She felt like acting like a fangirl over him but managed not to. She watched as Tim and Johnny took their seats. Tim, at the head of the table, turns to her. "Ah Miss Parker, is it?" he smiled slightly. "Mr. Burton, it's a great honor to meet you.", "It's Tim. And it's an honor to meet you too. I've heard a lot about you". Eleanor was a little admired by this. "Oh really?". "Yeah. Johnny was the one who told me about you. He's the responsible for you being here today, actually.", Tim explained, exchanging a look with Johnny. "Yeah, I saw you at The Pact. I thought you were great and told Tim about you.", Johnny said, timidly. Eleanor felt herself blush but flashed a thankful smile at Johnny.
Tim told her the objectives of that meeting and what he wanted her to do. She was going to play Violet Landbury, an English girl who meets Jonathan Laumont, a french paint artist with a dark secret. Eleanor and Johnny had to read some scenes from the script. After they finished reading, the entire room was silent. Everyone looked amazed.
"Wow, that was really impressive. You're gonna do a terrific Violet! Just like Johnny boy told me you'd be. That was all we need, thank you. See you in two weeks.", Tim gets up from his seat and extents a hand for Eleanor to shake. "Uh, thank you, Tim.- she awkwardly gets up and shakes Tim's hand- "See you too." She looks at Johnny one last time and smiles at him before she starts to walk out of the room. She's almost where the elevators are when she feels a hand grabbing her arm.
