I got three reviews for the first chapter! Woo hoo! To tell the truth, I was expecting at most one review for that chapter, so three totally blew me over. Thanks to!
BPOV
Slowly, I walked into the room. It had already been set up with light crews scurrying about, the director's chair set up, and the director, Angela Weber, herself discussing with a young man next to her with curly brown hair. They looked up the moment I stepped into the room.
"Ah, Bella! I'm so glad to see you." She pulled me into an embrace.
"This is Ben Cheney," Angela told me as she pointed to the brown, curly haired man. "he's my boyfriend, and one of the actors in the movie."
Ben nodded his head, smiling warmly. I was stunned. Angela, a boyfriend? She had been one of the most oblivious people ever. She didn't know (or care) about any of the latest gossip, totally unaware of her surroundings, and was definitely not interested in men, or so I thought. Perhaps Angela wasn't so clueless at all.
"We're doing a movie on two rival spies who are secretly in love with each other. You are one of the rival spies. The other spy is the heartbreak of teenage girls everywhere."
"Who is…" I smirked.
The doors suddenly swung open, leaving the place silent.
"Me." Announced Edward Cullen, standing by my side.
I turned and stared into his emerald eyes.
Oh, how I could get lost in those shimmering pools…
"What the hell are you doing here?"
"I'm the rival spy, my dear Bella. Is that so far-fetched? Is there some other "heartbreak of teenage girls everywhere"?" He smirked at me with that dazzling crooked smile.
"And grown adult women," I muttered under my breath.
"Beg your pardon?"
"Nothing." I turned to Angela. "Is this some kind of fucking joke? Edward is my arch-enemy. I have a play a romantic role next to HIM?" My voice rose higher with each word.
Angela shrank back, her sea blue eyes were filled with fear.
"Sorry, Bella. All the paperwork is already done, and the contract is validated. There's no way out of this."
How was I supposed to do this? Yes, I hated him, but his looks were for die for. This role was officially going to be my undoing. But, as Angela said, there was no way out of this.
"Fine," I sighed. "Now, where's my script?"
o-o-o-o-o-o
Nervously, I flipped through the pages. My character's name was Robyn and Edward's was Anthony.
Robyn: [opens door] Anthony, what the hell are you doing on my balcony? Didn't we make a deal? [voice grows soft] Didn't we say we would never see each other again?
Anthony: [staring into sky] Robyn, I couldn't stop thinking about you. I knew I had to come, to see you again. [stares at Robyn] I couldn't help myself.
[Robyn walks until next to Anthony. Anthony grabs Robyn's face.]
Anthony: Don't you understand, Robyn? Don't you get it?
Robyn: Please, Anthony, please.
Together: I love you.
[They kiss fiercely.]
[Scene Ends]
I gulped. How could I do this? I never played a romantic role in a movie before. I came to stardom after starring in Days of Sorrow, a movie where two best friends are separated because of World War II. My co-star was Jasper Hale, my best friend and totally infatuated with my other best friend/manager, Alice Brandon. However, that movie had no romance in it at all. How Alice thought I was perfect for this role, I have no idea. Suddenly, my phone rang. Quickly, I flipped it open and Jasper's voice immediately settled into my ear.
"Hey, Bells, ready for dinner?"
I smiled, and started to stuff my script into my beat up messenger bag with the phone still on my ear.
"Sure, Jazz. I'll be there in fifteen minutes."
"Okay, see you!"
"Bye, see you."
He hung up and I ran out the door, smack dab into Edward Cullen.
"Shit!" I screamed, as my coffee dripped down his navy blue shirt.
"Fuck, Bella! What the fuck? This coffee is fucking hot! What the hell are you standing there for? Get me some fucking towels for goodness sakes! FUCK!"
Usually, I would've been mad if someone bossed me around like that. But this was different. I spilled CAUTION! HOT! coffee down his shirt and this was totally my fault. I scurried off to find towels and a clean shirt for him. When I came back, I tossed him one of Jasper's clean shirts that I found in my car. Edward didn't hesitate to rip his old shirt off, still yowling in pain.
My, his body was GORGEOUS.
Helplessly, my eyes raked down his body. He had a lean build, with a six-pack and muscles ribboned down his arms. He was dripping all over in coffee, and was frantically wiping it off.
Oh, how I wanted to lick it off…
SNAP OUT OF IT, SWAN!
He was now staring at me, that annoying smirk
"Do you see something you like, Bella?" he asked me with a low growl.
In an instant, he had me pushed against the wall.
"I asked, do you see something you like?" he whispered seductively into my ear. His hand gripped my hip tightly. After a few minutes, I stuttered:
"Edward, I need to go."
Grabbing my purse, I bolted out of the hallway. Behind me, I could feel his emerald eyes watching me, as if they had seen me for the first time…
So, we have established the fact that Bella like-likes Edward even though she thinks he is an arrogant ass. I think it is time for another EPOV! Remember, reviews are cookies. I've been on a diet too long! So, can we up the reviews to, 5 ,maybe?
