TAISSA:
Taissa! Taissa come to the phone quick! its a man named Ryan Murphy! he's calling about an audition you went to just a few weeks ago?!
I had never ran so fast in my life, out of my room, stumbling over the stupid footstool i had always hated. I was exhilirated, could this be my chance? I had never really been interested in acting before; I mean I guess it was cool and all and my sister Vera was so good at it.. it was just never my scene. That was ofcourse, until I got my first taster of it, portraying a younger version of my sister in one of her debuts.
'Hello, I mean, good morning? hello?' I whispered down the phone. I was so nervous.
'Ahhh! Taissa you star! Im just calling to let you know you have a call back for Violet Harmon on American Horror Story Murderhouse. Congratulations! now here are all the details you need to know. I need you down at the casting office by 2pm tomorrow. You will be meeting with Evan Peters. I have already cast him as none other than Tate Langdon! See you soon!'
As he ended the call, It dawned upon me. What if I dont have chemistry with this Evan guy? Ryan will see it and he'll cast some other girl to play the role. I couldnt let that happen, I wanted this part so badly, Straight away I got down to business.
EVAN:
'DUDE! I got the part in Murphy's new show!' I yelled to my best friend; Dylan.
'ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?! THATS AWESOME MAN! do you know what your character is like yet?'
'Not yet, though Murphy did let me know that I have a love interest. I hope shes hot!'
'Haha yeah dude! maybe you could bang her. inside and outside of the show!' he laughed to himself.
'totally.' I whispered.
I always act like this around Dylan, he kinda makes me feel like I have to. Im not that much of a tool its just without Dyl, I probably wouldnt be interesting in acting at all, hes the one guy who kinda pushed me towards the whole idea of it, it happened when we were both just watching the TV and the Olsen twins came on, we both agreed they were pretty damn hot so I swore to him that I'd pursue acting until I met the twins.
The next day arrived and I was so psyched! that was until my ex girlfriend Alexia decided to call me, begging for my forgiveness. I mean, I honestly dont know what I have to forgive her for.. she slept with Dylan when we were on a break, to me that doesnt exactly scream whore but I guess im just an introvert. I dont really show how Im feeling most of the time, which Alexia took as stubborness or heart break, which is why she keeps ringing me all the goddamn time.
'Lexi its fine stop ringing me please! I really dont have time for this im going to a rehearsal for my new role!'
I knew she would reply with something out of the blue and idiotic but I really didnt want to start an argument, especially since I was in such a good mood already.
'Oh so I'm not important to you anymore? FINE! be that way Evan!'
'Lexi I know what you're going to do. Please don...'
Yep. She did it. She started crying her eyes out down the phone, sobbing and whimpering. Like she didnt know I had learnt all her tricks by then..
'You know what Lex? I really have to go, but I would like to meet up for a coffee later.. does that sound okay?'
Straight away she was as perky as a cat with catnip practically singing down the phone to me..
'Alright baby boo! I'll ring you later, tar-arrr!'
the moment she starting making kissing noises down the phone I hung up. I had no patience to think about Alexia right now. I wanted to meet my Violet Harmon.
TAISSA:
Oh god. Oh god oh god oh god. I was here, sat in the casting office, waiting for the girl who went in before me to come out so I can meet who Im supposed to be acting with. Ugh! why am I so nervous? Vera is never like this... though I guess she has been doing this far longer than I have.
My thoughts were interrupted when the girl burst out of the door and came to sit next to me.
'Oh. My. God. I hope I get cast as Violet.. no offence sweet but I really do.'
'Why?' I asked, hoping to be fed some information on what the session was like.
'Why?' She scoffed 'Because Tate is a complete hottie! I totally felt like we had something going on..' She started to drift into a daydream when she snapped out of it and sang 'Oh, they're waiting for you by the way. I wouldnt bother though, I'd hate for you to be embarrassed when I get the part.'
As I watched her skip away I swore to myself that if I ever get that pretentious I would end it right there and then.
As I got up to walk to into the office I tripped over my bag and hit my chin on the little table in the middle of the room, it hurt so badly! I must have made a ruckus because the office door swung open and a young man ran to help me up.
'Are you alright!?' he asks, whilst pulling me off the ground
'Yeah. Yeah Im just peachy. thanks.' I replied, sarcastically ofcourse. I just wanted to get to my audition without messing anything up.
'Oh. Glad to hear. Are you here for Violet Harmon?' He asked.
I finally look up after sweeping the dust off my jeans and fixing my porkpie hat to the right position and I was stunned.
This man was absolutely gorgeous! his shaggy long blonde hair covered his face just the right amount, and oh god. oh god his brooding brown eyes. I felt a tingling sensation down below.. was I sexually attracted to this guy? sure he was gorgeous but I swear he seems quite a bit older than me.
'Earth to clumsy chick.. helloooo?' His voice rang in my ears, awakening me from my thoughts
'Oh,uhm. Yeah, Hi, Im Taissa.. Taissa Farmiga.'
