Is It Really Meant To Be??

"Harriet?"

"Hmm?" She looked up from what she was reading to see one of the P.A's standing in the doorway to her dressing room.

"Danny Tripp wants to see you..."

"Now?"

"He said when you're free."

"Okay, thank you."

Harriet sighed and looked down at the screenplay that she had been reading. She didn't know where it had come from. It was left in her dressing room sometime during the morning. There was no clue as to where it had came from or who had written it.

She thought maybe it was a fan hoping she'd be able to help them with a movie they had written, but after reading the first couple of pages, she was hooked on the story.

There was something about the script that was so familiar, yet she couldn't put her finger on it. She wondered whether it might had been based on a true story that she had once heard about, or she if she had already read it somewhere before. She just couldn't remember and it was driving her crazy.

She put it down on her table, deciding to finish reading later after she had spoken to Danny.

It had been 6 months since Matt had quit Studio 60, and even though Ben Cunning was a good writer and a nice guy, he wasn't Matt.

She walked up the stairs towards Danny's office. Things had been a little weird after he had found out what had happened. Harriet had expected him to scream and shout at her but he didn't. At first, he didn't talk to her about anything aside from work, but slowly things got better between them. They were never going to be as close as they were before... Danny was never going to forgive her for cheating on Matt.

They had talked a little about what happened a few months back, but never went into much detail. She would ask Danny how Matt was doing and he would always reply, 'fine'. But, there have also been times where she has over heard other people saying he wasn't coping well. Lately though, everyone said he was doing great and looked great... Yet Danny's answer was still 'fine.'

She knocked on the door, only opening it when she heard Danny calling her in.

"You wanted to see me?" She looked at him, standing at his desk next to Jordan who was holding Rebecca in her arms.

"Yeah, come on in..." He gestured her further into the room.

"What's going on...?" She started but her voice trailed off when she noticed someone sat on the couch. "Matt?"

"Hi..."

"Hi." She repeated, staring at him.

Before anyone could say or do any more, the door flew open and Ben stormed in. His hair was slightly messy, his glasses placed on top of his head. Whilst his shirt was crumpled and un-tucked from his pants, and the tie he had been wearing, was now hanging loosely around his neck.

"Hey, Ben..." Danny said, glancing at him.

"I'm done... I quit... It's over..." He rambled; throwing the pile of papers he had in his hands up in the air. "I'm not putting up with this any more..."

"Are those documents important?" Danny questioned, looking at the papers.

"They unscrewed my chair, Danny!" He exclaimed. "No, no more... I've been here 6 months and the jokes haven't eased up!"

"That's because you retaliate." Danny stated. "Last week, you put chilli powder in Simon's coffee!"

"He put super glue on my coffee cup handle!"

"Actually, that was me." Danny grinned.

"I hate you all!" Ben shouted, pointing at Danny, turning slightly only then noticing Matt and Harriet were in the room. He paused for a moment, seeing Matt watching the scene in front of him amusingly, whilst Harriet just stared at Matt.

"Hi there." Matt smiled at him, when he finally noticed him.

"This is all your plan, isn't it?" Ben whispered. "It was all your idea... You just want to screw with my head don't you? I don't know why but I know you do... I hate you too!"

With that Ben left the office, slamming the door behind him.

Danny looked from the door and then back at the papers, before bending down and picking them up.

"So, Harriet..." Danny started, shuffling them.

"Wait, shouldn't you go after him?" Jordan cut in.

"Nah."

"He just quit!"

"He quits everyday... He'll be fine..." Danny shrugged. "Suzanne will make him some coffee and he'll calm down..."

"She makes good coffee..." Matt added, nodding.

"He quits everyday?" Jordan questioned.

"Yeah, he sort of has a love/hate thing going on with the cast."

"What sort of love/hate thing?"

"They love to mess with him and he hates them messing with him."

"Danny..." She glared at him slightly.

"Look, it's not a big deal. It's only Tuesday." Danny shrugged. "It started off as just a few practical jokes when he first started... But then he did some jokes of his own for payback..."

"It's been going on for 6 months?!" Jordan exclaimed.

"How could you have not noticed?" Danny asked. "Just last week, I came home covered in flour."

"Danny, this is a studio not a playground!"

"Fine, I'll talk to them..."

"You better..."

"I will..."

"Sorry, not to sound rude or anything here... But what the hell is going on?" Harriet cut in.

"Oh yeah, I forgot you were here." Danny turned to her.

"I wrote a movie." Matt announced.

"That's great." She frowned a little unsure as to why they had asked her here, but then it suddenly dawned on her as she thought about the script in her dressing room. "Wait, not 'Yesterday's Hero?'..."

"Wow, good guess..."

"It was in my dressing room." She stated, completely confused about what was going on.

"That's what I wanted to talk to you about."

"I thought Danny wanted to talk to me?" Harriet glanced across at her boss.

"No, he just wanted to use my office since he hasn't got one anymore… Because he quit and left me here with crazy 'I quit' boy to deal with everyday..." Danny replied.

"Shut up." Matt rolled his eyes.

"Okay, I feel like coffee." Jordan stood up straight, placing Rebecca in her carrier.

"Okay." Danny nodded but didn't move.

"Would you like one?" She asked, giving him a look.

"Yeah, that would be great thanks." He glanced down at the papers in his hands again.

Jordan rolled her eyes and grabbed his arm with her free hand. "Y'know for an intelligent guy, sometimes you can be really dumb."

Both Matt and Harriet watched as Jordan dragged Danny out of the office.

"So, things haven't changed much around here..." Matt broke the silence.

"I guess not..." Harriet shrugged slightly. "So, what did you want to talk to me about?"

"The movie is going to start in a few months." He told her, re-taking his seat and gesturing for her to do the same. "I want you to play Rosie."

"Is this a joke?" She stared at him.

"No."

"Matt, she's the lead."

"Yeah, I know... I wrote it."

"You're... You're serious?" She questioned. "You want me to play the lead in your movie?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because you're an amazing actress, and I think you'll be perfect for this role..."

"But..."

"Harriet, no matter what has happened between us... I'm still one of your biggest fans..." He cut her off. "I've talked to Danny about it, and he thinks we can work something out so that you can do the movie and keep doing the show."

"You've already spoken to Danny?" She asked. "You're confident I'll agree?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because this has always been your role." He replied. "Ever since I started writing it... You were cast as Rosie... It would be strange to have someone else take your place."

She watched him, completely thrown by what was happening.

"Matt..."

"This is your movie, Harri..." He told her softly. "It always has been your movie... It always will be... I'm refusing to have anyone else take the lead."

She couldn't help but smile slightly, now she could see why the script had seemed so familiar, it was because she had already read it. Years ago, not long after Matt and her first started dating. One night, they had just gotten home from a wrap party; both of them were pretty drunk. Matt had told her that one day he'd write her a movie to star in and she teased him. So to prove it to her, he took out his laptop and started to write it there and then. He didn't actually get much done that night, but every so often when he was having trouble sleeping or when he had enough of writing sketches he would work on that. Harriet had been surprised by how different it was from his normal style of writing. Unlike what he normally wrote, this movie was more drama then it was comedy.

"But I don't get it." She shook her head slightly. "After everything that happened, why did you decide to finish this movie?"

Matt looked down at his hands for a moment. "I don't know... Whilst I was away... I couldn't write anything... Except this."

"Matt..."

"Harriet, I'd understand if you couldn't do it."

She was silent for a moment. "We'd be working together again."

"I'm okay with that, if you are."

"You weren't okay with it 6 months ago."

"I was an idiot."

She looked at him in surprise. "What?"

"I ran away when I should have stayed and talked to you properly." He told her. "Danny was right that night, I could have worked through it... He would have helped me through it... I know he would have but..."

"But what?"

"I was scared..." He sighed, running his hands over his face. "I couldn't face what happened the last time we broke up... I didn't think I could do it, but to be honest, being away from everyone... Being away from you... It made it worse."

"Matt... I'm so sorry..." She said tearfully. "I never ever wanted to hurt you like this... I still don't know what was going through my head that night..."

"Yeah, well... That's the past..." He mumbled, looking back at his hands. "I want to move past it all... I want a fresh start."

"You really think it could work?" She questioned.

"I don't know... Come do my movie and we'll find out."

She smiled when he smiled, making eye contact properly for the first time since she had entered the room.

"Okay."

"Really?"

"Yeah." She nodded. "I would hate seeing someone else playing Rosie."

"Me too." Matt added.

"Okay, well good." She stood up.

"Good." He stood up too. "I better go tell Danny he can have his office back."

"Okay." She followed him as he headed for the door. "Matt?"

"Yeah."

"Things have changed around here." She told him softly. "Ben is an amazing writing and a really nice guy... But he's not you...Things aren't the same here, any more."

He nodded slightly, not sure how to reply to that.

"Do you really think we can make this work?" She asked, quietly.

"I don't know... I don't know whether there is anything left between us... I don't know if there ever will be... And I don't even know if we can be friends again... But this is a start..." He told her. "And if the only thing we get out of this is a great a movie... Then I guess that will be worth it."

She smiled slightly. "You're right."

"I'll go find Danny..." He told her. "I'll call you soon."

"Okay..." She nodded. "And thank you..."

"It's your role, Harri..." He whispered, hesitating slightly before placing a kiss on her cheek. "I'll be in touch."

She let out a breath she didn't know she was holding as Matt left the office. She waited a moment, trying to get hold of herself before walking out herself. Smiling to herself as she headed back down to her dressing room.

At least they had a new start...

The End
