Chapter 2 Changes

So, last night was fun I admit. A little bit frustrating with Theo every where Lea was. I mean all I wanted was time with my Gleeks but he's okay. Theo does treat Lea well and has this amazing talent. I think they have lots in common especially their theatre background but something about them being together really annoys the hell out of me. I like him but we will have to see. It's what makes her happy and she seems to be.

We haven't had many scenes lately together with my character Finn dating Quinn again so it's probably just bothering me that we haven't had time to work together. Lea has become a good friend and I decided that is the problem; we just don't have that quality time together that we used to have when our characters were happily dating. Having good friends is not something I ever take for granted.

Lea and I have been friends ever since we started acting together. Trust is an essential part of the acting process. Lea and I had to look into each other eyes and pretend to be in love. We have had to kiss and act in love. To do that accurately, you have to have faith and trust and most of all, be comfortable with each other. Not to add our crazy fandom that seems to follow us wherever we go.

Yet, this will change with regionals as my character Finn is starting to realize how much he misses Rachel. We have this huge scene where Finn sings a song to Rachel called Pretending and the result is this huge kissing scene where they lose control. It will be cool to have scenes with her again. That is until our characters break up for the 100th time. All is fair in love and war, especially TV.

So, tomorrow Lea and me time. Bright and early 4:30 AM I can hang out with one of my bestfriends. I just love my Glee family.

Next morning...

Here I am with our coffees excited to be working with Lea again. I am looking over my lines as she is using my shoulder as a pillow. It feels so good to have her pressed against my cheek as we wait for the crew. Cozy and comfortable. I just love it.

"It's been awhile, huh", I ask as she nods her heads and smiles her Lea smile.

"I'm just glad to have my headrest back", she giggles as she cuddles in my arms.

Hugging Lea was not uncommon with most of the crew. She was so damn nice and always showed compassion and kindness to everyone around her. All those diva lies seriously piss me off. Lea was nothing of the sort.

I kept my arms around her taking in the fruity smell of her hair and signature scent that I have never been able to name and felt reluctant to

let her go. Lea always managed to feel like home to me. Although home was Vancouver. But nevertheless, she makes me feel home.

We both stood up and straightened our clothes. Poor excuse for a skirt the stuff Lea had to wear. But, the network was definently capitalizing on her beautiful tan legs. I could never figure out how someone so short had such long looking legs especially when mine towered over hers.

I start to sing, feeling nervous not sure why. And I feel myself starting to smile as she walks toward me. My character is supposed to be feeling angst, real pain about their breakup. I immediately shut off the smile as I watch her come towards me. Stare into her eyes which isn't hard at this point. The problem is I think I am actually wanting to do that.

My hands start to sweat as we get near to the end of the song. I am going to kiss my good friend Lea for the 100th time so don't be nervous. No reason for it. I think all these things to myself as I lower my lips to her stretching my long arms around her tiny waist. My mouth lowers some more and I feel the buzzing of movement around my body. I feel warm and tingly and I don't want it to stop. Her lips reach mine and it's like fireworks. I open my lips and feel her warm tongue. It's like I am some where else until Max the camera man said that's a wrap.

"Wow, that scene was fantastic", muttered Max. He complimented them on their acting abilities and walked away.

Lea kept looking at me strangely.

"Are you okay Corey? You look sort of flushed."

"Yeah, I am fine. Just a little tired."

She nudged me in the ribs and shook her head. "You keep kissing like that and I might have to protect you from all the girls."

I motion for her to sit next to me on the couch and we take an early morning nap. Not that I napped mind you as my body was literally burning up. Something had definently changed and all I could ask myself was when had I started to fall in love with her?
