Yeah so hey guys. I'm telling you I have absolutely no idea what so ever and I mean seriously like I usually have like a tiny idea of a scene in my head and work out a whole chapter around it, and well I have nothing. So I'm just kinda pullin this outta my but here ( I have been saying that a lot lately [well not on here]) and let's see what we get.

The Masquerade

Chapter 7

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. SMACK!
I rolled off the bed onto the ground, forgetting how not soft it was.
Monday.
What was my motivation for getting out of bed today? Oh, right, first day on set.
I tried to tame my haystack-like hair but gave up and decided to use extra conditioner in the shower.
I stepped in and let myself get used to the boiling hot water streaming through the showerhead before fully immersing myself.
I kneaded my strawberry scented shampoo through my hair, my feeble attempt of waking myself up.
Did I mention that it's only 6:00 in the morning?
I toweled myself off and wrapped it around my body. I walked to my closet and picked out a pair of turquoise Juicy sweats, a purple tie-dye tank top, and a matching purple light Juicy jacket. I had to wear designer; the razzi knew where the set location was. I did however wear my black converse. I wanted something comfy to wear too instead of my usual skinny jeans and band tee because I would be changing in and out if costume all day, and when I wasn't filming I needed something comfortable to relax in.
I stuffed my phone, iPod, script, copy of Wuthering Heights, pens, reading glasses, keys, hair ties, clips, headbands, and wallet into my tan bag that had a picture of a pair of grungy converse dripping pink paint, and a pink paint heart.
Rosalie and Alice were still sleeping and I tried not to wake them as a poured myself a cup of coffee and tip toed through the door.
I climbed into my sleek, black, Shelby Cobra Concept. Alice and Rosalie had it custom made with black leather interior and no racing stripes for my birthday last year. Outrageous, I know, but my agent forbade me to drive my beat up Chevy truck in public.
I arrived at set at 6:30 as told.
"Glad to see you are here Bella. I'm Hank's assistant Mark. Your trailer is around stage 3 on the right side, we had it filled with your favorites to make you feel at home between takes," the scrawny brunette told me as He tried to catch up with my face pace to the trailer.
"Make up artists will be on their way over shortly to work their magic fir your first scene, which is scene 2. You have been hired an assistant she will be here to manage your schedule by the end of shooting the scene."
"Thanks, Mark," I said as I climbed into my trailer.
It wasn't very large but that's okay because I wasn't spending much time here since I lived so close. It had black carpeting and white furnishings.
I walked over to the mini fridge and I pulled out an Amp energy drink. (Ever had one? AMAZING! haha) I needed to wake up.
There was a knocking on the aluminum exterior of the trailer.
"Come in!"
Two ladies walked in, one carrying a large black bag which I assumed held makeup, and the other carrying a garment bag that held my costume.
"Good morning, Bella!" the curvy dirty blonde said that carried the make up bag.
"I'm Amanda, and this is Kate, and we will be doing your make up for the whole movie!" she squealed, while gesturing to the skinny, vibrantly red headed girl next to her at the right time. I'm sure she would get along with Alice.
"Why don't you sit down at the vanity, and we will get started," said the raspy voiced Kate.
I did as told and.
She started working on my make up while Amanda started doing my hair. It took a long time but in the end, I have to admit it looked great. My hair was in soft curls and my make up was done very delicately to make me look older.
Amanda raised a blood red acrylic nail to her thin lips. "Maybe we should have gotten you dressed first. We will be sure to do that next time," she said and nodded to Kate to get my costume out of the garment bag.
It was a light turquoise blue that had about two to three inch wide straps that connected in the back. It had a big white belt that was place high above the waist, which was empire.
Kate unzipped it and helped me step in and zipped it back up so my hair wouldn't get caught.
I turned around to the mirror and admired myself. Movies must have magic because I don't know how they made me look so much better. That means Alice must have magic too. I internally laughed at my thoughts.
I stepped out of the trailer and go into the golf cart that would take the three of us back to the set.
When we got to the set, we went our separate ways but I thanked them for doing such a good job.
I was really nervous for this scene. I had all the lines down of course, pretty much all I did yesterday and the day before was read trough the script over and over and over again. So it wasn't the lines, but what was supposed to happen. I swallowed, closed my eyes, and took a few deep breaths. Once I felt more secure, I reopened my eye and walked into Hank's view.
"Ah! Bella. Now that your here, go to behind the bar. Edward will walk in and we will start the scene," he told me.
I nodded and took my place in the room, which was a supposed to be a bar that I worked as a bartender at.
"Annnnd, Action!" yelled Hank before Edward stepped in.
The door opened and I looked him over. His usually messy hair was actually...tamed. It was combed down so it would look somewhat sophisticated.
I tried to focus and remember what I was supposed to do.
"Hi, what would you like?" I asked with a bit of a New York accent.
"Just a water, please," he grumbled, acting annoyed my something.
I filled up the glass, but instead of handing it back to him like I was supposed to, I tripped sending the glass flying.
Some of the water got on Edward's arm but not much. Luckily the glass didn't shatter, there was just water to clean up.
"Cut!" Hank yelled.
"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry!" I exclaimed throwing a hand over my mouth.
"Its alright, Bella," one of the crew members told me.
"I will do it right next take," I promised Hank.
"Actually, no. Keep it, I like it. After you spill it ok Edward, apologize, clean it up do some improv, and jump to the line where Edward introduces himself."
I immediately felt bad about having to through to cold water on Edward, but I after a I thought about it, it didn't bother me much.
"Take two, action!" Hank called after the mess was cleaned and went back to where we started.
We repeated the first lines and I brought the glass over. I fake tripped, making it so that I got most of the water on his arm instead of his whole body. I put the glass on the counter.
"Oh my! I'm so sorry, sir! I'm usually not this clumsy!" I said improv-ing. I grabbed a dish towel and started cleaning him off, then the floor.
"Its no big deal," he said.
I bent over to wipe more up and all of a sudden he hit my ass. I fell over, gasped, turned around and slapped him across the face.
His mouth was wide open in shock. He was also on the ground. Maybe he fell into me, from slipping on the water. He glanced behind me, then back at me. Hank must have signaled him on.
"I'm Danny," he said, the corner of his mouth tugging up in the tiniest grin.
"Andrea," I said standing up, offering a hand to help him up.
"You okay?"
"I should be asking you that," I said straightening out my skirt. He grinned.
"I'm fine," he said.
"Me too. Maybe I should get you your water now," I giggled. I am not a giggling person.
I got him another glass and handed it to him.
"You free Friday night?"
"Why, so you can come back when I'm not around?" I joked.
"Actually, I was thinking of a date," he said slowly staring into my eyes with his emerald green ones, and tucked a lock of hair behind me ear.
"As it turns out, I am."
"I'll see you Friday then," he said and winked.
"Cut!"
The smile faded straight away and was replaced with a grimace. My heart sank. I actually thought he wasn't mad at me. Of course, Bella! It's called acting for a reason!

Lotsa lotsa love,
Veronica.
