What Really Happened Behind The Scenes of Pearl Harbor
Part 2
A/N: One more Ben movie and one more Josh movie.
New characters
Gwenyth- Gwenyth Paltrow. Ben is like still in love with her.
Kirsten- Kirsten Dunst. I like her.
"You're gonna be a father, Danny!" Ben cried.
"No," Josh said softly. "You are." He shut his eyes.
"CUT!" the director called.
Josh stood up and ran behind the plane. "SHE ISN'T HERE!" Ben called.
Slowly, his figure emerged from behind the plane. "I think she's the devil," he admitted.
"Let's go watch some more movies!" Ben said happily.
"Okay," Josh said still scanning the set with his eyes.
"She's doing another scene," Ben assured him.
"I don't trust her," Josh said.
"Come on," Ben said pulling him by the arm into the lounge area.
He put in Bounce. "Here's my theory," Ben started.
"What's a theory?" Josh asked.
"Never mind. I think since you know people from the movies come when you put the movie in, maybe Gwenyth'll come!" Ben said.
"Get over her! She doesn't like you!" Josh said acting like they were both in the 7th grade again.
"Right, ok," Ben said brushing the comment off. They watched and waited as they showed a bar scene with Ben and some guy. "Where is she? Where is she?" he asked impatiently.
"Maybe she doesn't come until they show her in the movie," Josh suggested.
"Right, that has to be it," Ben said. So they waited. And waited.
Finally they showed the brunette Gwenyth at her home. "Hi!" they heard a female voice down the hall say. Ben jumped up.
But only Kate walked in. Josh hid under the table again. "THE DEVIL!" he yelled.
"Where is she? Where is Gwenyth?" Ben asked.
"Ben," a voice came from what the actors must've thought was the ceiling because that's where they all looked.
"God?" he asked.
"Hell no!" a female voice said. "I just need to tell you that no one will be arriving from any of your movies. That is all."
"NO!" Ben cried.
Josh finally got the courage to emerge from under the table. He jumped around the room repeating, "Bounce! Bounce!" At first Ben was flattered, but then he realized Josh wasn't doing it because of the movie, but because he was bouncing around the room.
"Sit," Kate commanded.
"Treat?" he asked as he lingered near a chair.
"Oh fine," she said throwing him a candy bar off the snack tray. "God only knows why he doesn't come over here and get it himself," she said to herself.
Josh sat and devoured it. He looked at Ben, who was still in a half kneeling, half laying position on the floor. "What?" he asked completely forgetting the last five minutes.
"Gwenyth," Ben whispered.
"Did I miss something here? Who's Gwenyth?" Josh asked.
"You missed a lot," Kate said chewing her bubble gum. (I wanted her to have bubble gum, so goddamnit, she has bubble gum!)
"Like how to act," Ben said joining in on the teasing.
"Weren't you just crying?" Josh asked.
Ben wiped his eyes dry of tears. "No," he said in a voice that told you he was lying. And, as we all know, he isn't a good actor.
The people on the screen were in bathing suits at a water park. Kate started laughing hysterically and fell onto the couch. Josh, following her lead, started laughing too.
"What?" Ben asked totally clueless.
"Ben...in...bathing...suit," Kate managed to say between erupting in giggles again.
"Josh, you wanna come do scene...got anymore popcorn?" Michael asked as he entered the room.
"Nope," Josh said. "What scene?"
"None. Did I say scene? I meant, um never mind. Go back to your business." He walked out of the room.
"So, I don't want to watch this anymore. Do you?" Kate asked Josh.
"No. Let's watch mine!" he said.
She went over to the movies. "All we got is "The Virgin Suicides," Kate said as she picked up the box.
"I was in that? Oh, I can't remember. Put 'er in!" he said as he plopped down on the couch.
Ben sighed. "Not a drama," he said.
"All the movies we have seen have been dramas," Kate pointed out matter-of-factly.
"With some comedy," he said. "Anyway, Josh is only in the middle half of the movie."
Kirsten entered the lounge as soon as her image was shown on the TV screen. "Hi," she said all sweetly.
"You got to make out with HER?" Ben asked. "NO FAIR!"
Josh laughed. "Hey," he said. He was acting a lot more cool around Kirsten that around any of the other actors or actresses. He stuck his hand out for her to shake but instead she gave him a hug.
"I haven't seen you in SOOO long!" she said smiling.
"I wanted to call you," he said.
"Why didn't you?" she asked.
"I didn't know your number," he said. She shook her head while she laughed.
Ben and Kate noticed he hadn't asked her if he could make out with her. Kate nudged Ben in the rib cage. "OW!" he cried as he rubbed the spot her elbow had hit him.
"Shut up," she ordered. "I think Josh is in love!"
"Nah!" he said smiling and totally forgetting the pain in his ribs.
"Yea!" she said.
"Woah," Ben said.
"This is a real intelligent conversation," Kate commented.
"Huh?" Ben asked.
Kate sighed and shook her head. "Never mind," she said brushing it off.
"Can I take your coat?" Josh asked.
Kirsten looked at him funny. "It's June," she said laughing. "I don't have a coat, silly." She playfully hit him on the shoulder.
"So, um, wanna sit on the couch?" he offered.
"Okay," she said. He sat down on the couch like a normal person.
"That's weird, why isn't he jumping?" Ben asked.
"We look awful, don't we?" Kirsten asked Josh.
Kate and Ben remembered they were watching a movie and looked up at the screen. Kate placed her hand over Ben's mouth and he did the same to her so they wouldn't start cracking up. "We can, um, go do a scene now," Kate said surpressing a smile.
"Right," Ben agreed before leaving.
"What's their problem?" Kirsten asked.
"I dunno," he said cuddling her. She looked at him funny.
"Are you asleep?" she asked.
"No," he answered. "I am enjoying your company."
"Can you enjoy on the other side of the room? Thanks dear!" she said.
He slid to the other side of the couch. She put one of her feet on the table. The same was happening on the screen. "Kirsten," he started.
"Shhh, don't talk," she said and started kissing him. He smiled. "Damnit, don't smile!" she ordered.
"Kirsten," he said pushing her away. "I could just sit here kissing you until the movie is done," he started.
"Okay," she said and started kissing him again.
"Wait a minute!" he said pulling away. "But, I don't want to! I really like you. Because once this movie is over, you're gonna be leaving. And if I didn't tell you that, well, I would be pretty pissed off at myself."
"Josh, I don't like you like that," she said.
"You don't? Then why were you kissing me?" he asked.
"I mean I think you're damn sexy, but I'm only 19. So," she started.
"You don't want to go out with me on Friday?" he asked.
"No," she said.
"Even if we make out afterwards," he said cocking an eyebrow.
She thought about this for a second. "Okay, I'll go. But only if we make out afterwards."
"Okay," he agreed. Then they started making out again.
They stayed like that for a while. Until Kirsten broke it. "We gotta watch me die, okay?" she asked.
"Sure," he agreed.
They showed the garage. Kirsten's hand was hanging out of the car holding a cigarette. "Okay, I gotta go now," she said.
"Do you hafta?" he asked.
"Yep," she said. "But don't worry, pick me up Friday 'round 6."
"Bye," he said holding a hand out. She placed her hand on his.
"See ya later!"
Ben and Kate reentered just as Kirsten left. "We have any more movies?" Kate asked.
"No," Ben said looking at all the boxes of movies they had already seen.
They turned off the VCR and turned on regular TV. "SURVIVOR!" Josh screamed running around the room. "I vote Kate off the lounge!"
"Right," she said. But she left anyway. She mumbled something about immature jerks.
Josh picked up a bowl of rice that just mysteriously showed up. "Mine! All mine!" he said running away from Ben.
"I'm outta here," he said.
"Bye!" Josh answered. Then when he realized he couldn't kick anyone else out of the lounge, he left too.
