Hey guys! So here's chapter 4 and this is my favorite so far! It's longer than the first few and it's finally getting into the story! Hope you like it!

LUCY POV

When she left the room I tried to stay calm, but the nerves were getting to me. I paced around for a few minutes to calm myself down and when I finally sat down I heard the door open and as I turned my head I couldn't believe who I saw.

I just stared at him, I had no idea how he knew I was here, or really, why he was here. "Ian! What are you doing here?" I asked bluntly as he turned his head to look at me. Before he could answer my question there was a knock at the door and Sandy, along with two others stepped into the office.

"Lucy, Ian I'm glad you both could be here, this is Marlene King and Norman Buckley, you probably remember them from the callbacks." Sandy hummed while walking towards her desk chair.

"Please everybody take a seat." Marlene said as I felt Ian sit next to me on the Loveseat closer to Sandy's desk. "Well I suppose I should get started," Marlene went on, "For starters, Lucy, you have been cast as Aria Montgomery, which is one of the main characters. She also has a love interest on the show, who goes by the name of Ezra Fitz, which will be played by Ian." She said with a smile. My brain was trying to process what she was saying. This guy I met a week ago, that I completely fell for, but didn't give me the time of day; this guy I had told myself not to worry about because of my work was now going to be my onscreen love interest? I let out a breath I was unaware I was holding in and looked over at Ian. He was already looking at me, with those big, deep blue eyes.

IAN POV

I couldn't believe she was here. I have been thinking about her all week, she seemed to be constantly on my mind. I found myself stopping at the coffee shop almost every day, just hoping I would run into her. As I lost my train of thought I realized I was staring right at her, and at that moment she turned her head and looked at me, our eyes met, I took that chance and tried to read her, see what she was thinking, but she kept up a good front. Then, in an instant she turned to face forward again listening to Norman talk. My eyes scanned her petite body. Her olive skin complemented her dark wavy hair. When she laughed, god, it was like she lit up the whole room. As my eyes roamed freely over her body, I hear Marlene say my name and I snap back to reality.

"So I would really like to go over a scene or two for the pilot and then I'll be done with you for the day." Marlene smiled as she handed Lucy and I both a script. "It starts on page 13, start whenever you're ready." She said as she settles back into her chair.

I look over at Lucy starring at her script, clear my throat, and begin.

"Are you alright down there?" I said slowly, anticipating the sound of her voice.

"I'm just a bit jetlagged; I just got back from Europe." She said as she looked me right in the eyes.

"Where in Europe?" I muttered, amazed at how her gaze affected me.

"Iceland." She stated as she pushed a piece of hair from her face.

"I spent some time in Reykjavik, before I went to Amsterdam. It's a beautiful city." I smiled trying to keep her out of my head.

"Do you go to Hollis?" she questioned as she continued to face me.

"I just graduated. I'm about to start my first teaching job." I said as I finally looked back into her eyes. There was a long moment, where we just looked at each other. Her eyes fixed on mine before she spoke again.

"I love this song."

"B26"

"What's your major?"

"I'm leaning toward English."

"That's what I'm teaching!"

"I write too but So far it's mostly personal, just for me."

"I'm impressed."

"Why?"

"I tried writing but I didn't get very far. You're Lucky. If you're writing for yourself, it's pure passion… Maybe you'd let me read something of yours." I tried to sound deep, remembering the other people in the room.

"You'd really want to?"

"You're smart. You've traveled. You have good taste in music. I'd like to know more about you."

"Yeah, I'd like to know more about you too." She smiled as she finally dropped her gaze.

I looked down at the script for my next line, and just stared at the text in front of me.

INT. SNOOKERS BATHROOM - DAY - MOMENTS LATER

Ezra hoists Aria onto the sink and she wraps her legs around his waist. She tastes the scotch on his lips. They kiss slowly, lightly then it's like the damn busts open.

Their bodies press against each other and their chemistry is undeniable.

She accidentally leans back and turns on the

water. They both laugh. Then their lips find each other

again. Slowly and lightly kissing. Ezra pulls away from

Aria and looks at her. Studies her. She leans in and kisses

him as we FADE OUT.

We were going to kiss. But this wasn't just a kiss, it was a full-blown make out and I had only met her once before this. I mean, it was no problem for me, oh who was I kidding, of course it was a problem. This girl made me so damn nervous. Was I supposed to kiss her right now? This was a run-through; did we have to run through EVERYTHING?

"That was great; I can just feel the chemistry." Norman said abruptly, I turned to face him. "Now, were going to go discuss a few things, and then we'll call you back in here." He said with a smile as Lucy and I got up and walked out of the office. As soon as we were out of the room I watched Lucy walk over to a nearby chair and collapse into it.

LUCY POV

As I leaned my back into the chair a million things were running through my head. But my biggest thought was approaching me at this very moment.

"Hey." He said nervously as he sat down on the window seat next to my chair.

"Hi Ian." I said quietly, looking up at him.

"So, um, this is pretty crazy right?" he laughed awkwardly, obviously trying to make conversation.

"Why didn't you call me?" I couldn't believe I just said that.

He looked at me, then took a deep breathe, "I knew we would be getting to this eventually. The truth is, I put the napkin you gave me into my pocket, and the next day I did laundry. All the ink smeared… and… I could only make out about seven of the numbers. I tried guessing the last few, but it didn't work. I'm so sorry."

He looked so upset with himself. Why? It wasn't his fault. Well, now I'm really in trouble. This guy is perfect. All I could do was laugh.

He looked down at me shocked, "What?"

"It's just, when you walked in here today, I was so ready to give you a piece of my mind, and now… " I simply just looked up and shot him a big smile.

"So does that mean you don't completely hate me?"

"Well, not completely… just kidding, of course I don't. Just answer me one thing, what would've happened if you didn't wash that napkin?"

The door to the office flung open and Marlene and Norman walked toward us. "Thank you guys so much, that reading was great and I'm very confident you will both take on these characters extremely well." Marlene said.

"Lucy I'm going to need you to come in the same time on Monday, and then both of you need to be here at 2 on Wednesday for a cast meeting. See you then." And with that they both walked away leaving Ian and I in the hallway.

"Well, I guess I should get going." I said as I got up from the chair

"Yeah, I probably should too, but Lucy, would you like to go to dinner tonight? I mean just so we could talk about the episode and everything? He said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

I smiled, "I would like that, when?"

"Umm tonight, how about I pick you up at seven?"

"That sound's great, let me give you my number." I said reaching for his phone, "Don't wash this." I laughed as I gave it back.

"I won't, I'll see you at seven Lucy."

As I turned to walk down the hall I heard Ian call my name. I turned around, "Yes?"

"I would have called!" he yelled.

"What?" I yelled back a little confused.

"You asked me what I would have done if I hadn't have lost your number… I would have called you!"

I smiled and looked at him for a long time, "See you at seven." and walked towards the elevator.

Okay! So I hope you're enjoying it so far! I'll try to update tomorrow! Please Review!

Thanks,
