A chance at happiness
(Ryan obediently watched as his on/off girlfriends, and manager Taylor Townsend completely revised his scene. He could have done so much better with the choices he has made in life, but this one is particular is killing him. She was bossy, clingy, mean, overprotective, overbearing, talkative, and emotionally wrecked. He really wanted to help her, but she was so helpless that he really couldn't leave her until she found some other form of stability. Ryan was bored as it is, and Taylor was really starting to make it worse. Ryan was a promising soccer player who has always dreamed of being a model, but Taylor as usual grabbed this gig right behind his back. Today he was absolutely finished with her, and he made it very clear after a long lunch consisted of Taylor go off on something. )
Director: Miss Townsend can please get on with this?
Taylor: Listen, I just want Ryan to get the best out this.
Director: Whatever, I'll get Marissa then?
Taylor: Who is she?
Director: Marissa Cooper the new comer?
Taylor: The model right?
Director: She if very talented so I expect you to show some respect.
Taylor: Anyway, lets see this Marissa Cooper.
(Ryan's eyes startled as he watched a nervous Marissa walk into the room, and decided to approached her. He figured is he introduced himself he might be able to crack that wall she was holding up. He could tell their was more to here then her intoxicating beauty, deep eyes, and her long legs.)
Ryan: Hi, my names Ryan.
Marissa: Hi, I'm Marissa.
Ryan: Nice to meet you.
Marissa: Nice to meet you too.
(Ryan and Marissa practiced their scenes together before shooting it, and it was like magic at the first attempt. The director has never scene a connection quite like this one before. He knew they would be perfect for each other since he cast Marissa as Monica in this movie. He wanted Ryan from day one, but he just wanted to find the perfect girl before he cast him.)
Ryan: What are you doing for lunch?
Marissa: I was going to go to a restaurant.
Ryan: Would be rude If asked if I could join you?
Marissa: Nope, I would really like that.
Ryan: You are really talented you know that.
Marissa: Thanks (she blushed), I hope so.
(Marissa phone rings, and she sighs as she realized that it was Luke)
Ryan: Are you going to get that or not?
Marissa: No, ugh its Luke?
Ryan: Who is Luke?
Marissa: He is my ex, and he does not seem to get the picture?
Ryan: Believe none of them do.
Marissa: You have been through this too?
Ryan: Actually, I am going through this now.
Marissa: What's her name?
Ryan: Taylor, my manager.
Marissa: Wow ! never saw that coming.
Ryan: I wish I knew in advance, because neither did I.
Marissa: I guess we better get back to the set.
Ryan: Yeah, but wait.
Marissa: Yes.
Ryan: Will you go out with me?
Marissa: Umm… yes I would love too,
