Behind the Scenes: Fiona Allen: Elizabeth Life Stone
Back in the SnS department, the nine people congregated there, were tired but they were smiling- it seems their plan was finished and it was looking good.
They pulled an all-nighter, but Jacob grinned to himself- it will definitely be worth it, as long as it's executed with no hitches.
Astrid shook her head "We're really going to do this"
"Yup" Logan supplied happily popping the 'p' he leaned back on the chair he sat on and propped his feet on the chair Aiden was on- who gave him a soft glare as she popped his feet off. He shrugged "I want my time to be well spent"
"Oi" Inka looked at him affronted "Any time with us is well spent"
"No it ain't" he shouted back at her.
She simply poked her tongue at him and he chuckled.
Jacob simply snuggled deeper into the couch he was in, TD, really new how to get comfortable couches- he needed to find out for his mother- she was awful at it.
He really hoped the prank went well.
He looked to Flick, who was curled into a ball on the floor fast asleep. They are going to need their sleep, if they were going to pull this off. He yawned, you know what? She had the right idea.
Soon he was fast asleep.
Unluckily for him, Jasmine was awake when his mouth opened and he started drooling in his sleep- she really was quick with the camera.
…..
Michael, Astris, and Gwendolyn, were in Michael's office discussing Astris's show. Web had his ear to the door, but it was no good, they were talking too softly.
He sighed as he made his way back to his seat. Ashley patted his arm, when he passed by her "Next time"
He grinned at her "Yeah next time"
He then looked up the next audition, there were some really weird teens running around the world, and they needed to be found. He thanked his lucky stars he didn't get picked to be Chris's assistant.
He applied for this and the assistant job- the pay is better, but he is so very happy he accepted this one. He met the bloke- Brent- he thought the name was, who got the job when he turned it down- he looked stressed- like really, really stressed- apparently he was seeing a psychologist.
Web shivered at the thought, before getting back to his much, much better job.
Gwen finally left the meeting and wondered if that was a good idea, it would be new for the show. She sighed and rubbed her temples, she thought the old method was better.
She sighed, she needed to check out the newest interviewee.
She pulled out her notes: Fiona Allen.
Right, that was her name. And where did she live again?...New York.
Gwen brightened, she loved New York, maybe she could spend an extra hour or so there, she only had two interviews today.
She remembered the girls audition:
*The camera opens up to a 16 year old girl, who was in a room*
Fiona: "People know me as Fiona Allen, the mean girl. But, really, I'm not. I'm only mean because I have a broken heart. I hope you select me."
She wondered what the girl meant as 'people'- who was she referring too? school kids maybe? Or around the neighbourhood? And how did she get the 'mean girl' label?
There was only one way to tell, Gwen reasoned with herself, before she teleported away.
….
Fiona answers the door, when Gwen knocks, she doesn't say anything, she leaves the door open and turns around and walks away from Gwen. Gwen follows the girl, who wore a plain white shirt and jeans, as she strolls through the house, leading Gwen to the lounge.
She the girl- well, Fiona, Gwen supposed- unless she had a twin running about somewhere, this was the girl from the audition.
When Gwen entered and sat on the couch opposite Fiona, the girl gave her a look "Well"
"Well, what?" Gwen replied.
"The interview" the girl exclaimed as if Gwen were the most unreasonable person on the planet- she pulled out her phone from her pocket and looked at the screen "eleven twenty, Tuesday, it is a Tuesday and currently eleven twenty- one, we are running late"
Fiona continued "so get on with it"
Gwen used-to brats ignored the attitude and simply started the interview "So, Miss Allen, why do you want to be part of the Total Drama team?"
"Why do you think? God what a useless question." was Fiona's hard reply.
This was starting to look like her interview with Oleander, Gwen thought. Well, she got through to that girl, she can do with this one. But how? She thought as she tapped her pen to her chin.
"Ahem" Fiona looked to Gwen annoyed, as she sat there thinking. The girl sat with her arms crossed and one leg crossed over the other- the foot of that leg tapping impatiently into the couch she sat on "day dream in your own time- not someone else's"
Gwen smiled at the girl "I do apologise"
The girl rolled her eyes.
Gwen asked her next question "What do you think you'll add to Total Drama"
"What do you think? Geaze what sort of questions are these?"
Gwen having taken this attitude from another girl yesterday, was not prepared to take it two days in a row- she had another interview today- Heaven help her if the next was a third with attitude problems. She snapped her notes shut and glared at the girl.
"They are standard questions, if you don't like them fine, if you don't answer them fine- you won't get in- so do you want to get in?"
Fiona looked at her open mouthed- she then stood up "I auditioned didn't I?"
"Then sit back down and answer the questions" Gwen snapped.
Fiona sat back down and huffed glaring at Gwen "I don't feel like it"
"Not my problem" Gwen replied "as you were so nice to remind me earlier, this is your scheduled time for an interview, so-answer-the-questions" Gwen almost hissed out the last part.
Fiona looked about ready to angrily retort, but she quickly shut her mouth and sighed "Fine" she grumbled with a pout.
Gwen happily pulled her notes back out, when Fiona's phone rang.
Gwen gave her a pointed look, but Fiona rolled her eyes and pulled out her phone from her back pocket. Upon seeing the name on the screen, her eyes flashed dangerously, she angrily threw the phone across the room.
Eyes blinking, Fiona quickly realised what she had just done "Oh god"
She ran to her phone and picked it up, it was still flashing, but it was clearly badly damaged.
"Aaaaaaaaaargh" she screeched "He is totally getting me a new phone, he should know money doesn't grow on tree's- especially for me"
She starts crying, she quickly starts to rub away the tears, but then they don't stop and she falls to the ground sobbing as she brings her knees to her chest.
"Ohhh" Gwen quickly runs to the girl and hugs her. She rubs small circles on the girls back as she remembered her own mother doing whenever she got upset- it had always calmed her.
Eventually, Fiona calms down "Sorry" she whispers, but Gwen 'Shhhsss' her saying that it's ok. Fiona hic-ups and looks up to Gwen giving her a watery smile "Sorry" she says again.
Gwen shakes her head "You got nothing to apologise about"
Fiona rubs her eyes and stretches as Gwen steps away "Boys are so mean"
"They can be" Gwen agrees "Do you want me to make a hot beverage that always calms me down"
Fiona starts to shake her head, but then changes her mind and nods her head and then blushes "Mind making me a hot chocolate?"
Gwen nods "Sure, you're just going to have to show me where everything is"
Fiona nods and then gets up, leaving her now damaged phone on the floor "That's a nice coat by-the-way- Miss Selfridge?"
Gwen nods "Yes, one of my favourite brands, you've got a good eye" she comments.
Fiona grins "I love fashion, want to be a designer when I grow up" [1]
Fiona led them to the kitchen and pulled out dark chocolate mini choc-chips "The proper way to make a hot-chocolate" she grins at Gwen.
Gwen laughs and opens the packet, finds a pot and accepts the milk that Fiona hands her "You don't have any vanilla extract?"
Fiona frowns in thought "I'm not sure"
She looks into the pantry and finally grabs a little bottle.
"Thanks, vanilla is excellent for hot chocolate" Gwen says as she grabs the bottle and puts it next to the counter whilst she boils the milk.
Fiona grins at her "I'll be the judge of that"
"So," Gwen says as she slowly stirs the milk "How about I tell you a story of one of my own jerks"
As she makes the hot chocolate, she tells Fiona of an occasion that happened to her a little while back.
"It was more of a misunderstanding, than one of us being a jerk, more than anything" Gwen starts. So she told Fiona, her rather embarrassing story of how she managed to date a guy for an entire month and not realise it, until he broke it off with her at-least.
"He was so very mad at me, why don't I ever tell people I'm his boyfriend, am I only in this relationship for fun?" Gwen chuckles at the memory, she can laugh at it now- back then she was so mortified at herself for not even realising.
She pours the now completed hot chocolate into two mugs. "Pietro and I are very good friends now, he has a wife and she knew the two were dating before he gave her the engagement ring"
Fiona was laughing, in a loud belly-aching way, by the time the tale was finished.
Gwen hands her a mug "Well"
She says, after Fiona had taken a sip.
Fiona grins "I'm definitely going to remember that vanilla"
Gwen chuckles "See, I told you"
The two, sip hot chocolate, as they finish off the interview sitting on stools in the kitchen.
End.
