Chapter Three
"I'm pooped," said Kara flopping down on the couch in the hotel room.
"Tell me about it," said Maria, "I don't remember the last time I shopped that much."
"Yeah me either," said Kara.
"I like it here. It really is a beautiful city," said Maria.
"Yeah Dublin is a beautiful place," said Kara.
"So when does the filming for you next movie start?" asked Maria.
"As soon as possible. Or at least that's what they told me. I'm going to go at four. We need to figure out my wardrobe and different props. I haven't even seen the script yet. It should be good though," said Kara.
"Oh cool. You do know that its 3:30 right?" asked Maria.
"What?" said Kara looking at her watch, "Oh darn! I don't think that I'm going to make it."
"Why do you say that?" asked Maria.
"I have to shower and change and blow dry and I'm so dead," said Kara.
"Look. Don't panic. They said A.S.A.P so you get there as soon as possible. If an hour is A.S.A.P then it is. Just go get ready. I'll go to my room and just knock on my door. Oh and I have something important to tell you when you come out," said Maria.
"Oh okay. I'll be done soon," said Kara.
"Sure, Sure," said Maria.
"Yeah, your real funny Maria," said Kara.
"You know it!" said Maria closing the door behind her.
Kara shakes her head and goes into her bathroom to shower.
Half and hour later she's out and is fully dressed in a yellow green coloured spaghetti strap dress. She sits at her dresser with a blow dryer and out in front of her is an assortment of spring coloured eye shadow and eyeliner to match. When she had finished blow-drying her hair to her satisfaction she looked through her make up.
"Hmm…Let's see. Yes, I'll use this and this. Not that it matters. They'll probably take it off and put something new on when we figure out my wardrobe. Oh, gosh. I'm talking to myself again," said Kara.
About 15 minutes later she was done and grabbed her sweater and walked out of her room and down the hall to her friends room.
*KNOCK KNOCK*
"Hey Kara," said Maria, "Ready?"
"Yeah, what is that thing you were talking about?" asked Kara.
"What thing?" asked Maria.
"The thing about something you wanted to tell me. The important thing," said Kara.
"Oh right, I remember now. I'm going to be the movie your in," said Maria.
"No way!" said Kara.
"Yeah, they offered me a part yesterday before we left. I'm going to play Sarah, Alex's sister," said Maria.
"Who is Alex? I forget," said Kara.
"He's Jennifer's boyfriend. The guy she moved on with when Aaron went away," said Maria.
"And Aaron is the guy that Eric is playing," said Kara.
"Yeah, we really should go now," said Maria.
"Oh right, yeah," said Kara, "Let's Go."
Kara and Maria went out of the hotel where they had their limo waiting. They quickly climbed in and told the limo driver where to go. In about 10 minutes they were at the location.
"So this is where I'm filming," said Kara.
In front of them were about a million trailers and a pub with a sign above it that read "McKinnon Pub"
"Aww. This is so adorable. It's so quaint and homey. I love it!" said Kara.
"Hey Kara!" said a voice.
"Oh hey Eric!" said Kara giving him a hug.
"Have you seen the script yet?" asked Eric.
"No, not yet," said Kara.
"Well come with me," said Eric.
"Did I tell you that I got a part in the film too?" asked Maria as they walked off.
"Did you? Oh that's great! Well come along then," said Eric.
=I feel like a third wheel here, I wish my husband was here= thought Maria.
"Maria!" said a voice.
"Huh?" said Maria turning around.
"Surprise," said the voice.
"Gregory!" yelled Maria.
"I missed you!" said Gregory.
"I missed you too," said Maria hugging him tightly.
"Hey Gregory," said Kara.
"Hey Kara. How are you?" asked Gregory.
"Oh I'm great. Eric this is Maria's Husband Gregory Williams," said Kara.
"Nice to meet you," said Gregory shaking his hand.
"Like wise," said Eric.
"Well I'm going to leave you two alone now, come on Eric let's go get the scripts," said Kara.
"See you guys later," said Maria.
"Bye!" said Eric.
"Are those two dating?" asked Gregory.
"No, but they should be. They're destined," said Maria.
"I see. How do you know that?" asked Gregory.
"Because Eric is really…." whispered Maria in Gregory's ear.
"Are you serious?" asked Gregory.
"Dead serious," said Maria.
"Do they know?" asked Gregory.
"They have no idea," said Maria.
"That's just nuts," said Gregory.
"I know," said Maria.
"Well I'm glad we're together," said Gregory.
"Yeah me too," said Maria kissing Gregory.
"Love you," said Gregory.
"Love you too," said Maria smiling.
"Aren't they so sweet together?" said Kara.
"Yeah, they really are," said Eric.
"So let's look over this first scene," said Kara.
"Alright. Let's see. We can't do this one," said Eric.
"Why not?" asked Kara.
"It's for the younger versions of ourselves. It's the two kissing in the hallway," said Eric.
"Oh right, I remember now. I'm directing this scene," said Kara.
"Are you?" asked Eric.
"Yes, I've always found directing interesting so while I was doing my last movie I had a teacher with me who taught me the basics of directing," said Kara.
"That's cool. Good luck," said Eric.
"Arigato (thank you)," said Kara.
"Your welcome," said Eric.
"So what is the first scene that we have together?" asked Kara.
"That would be the scene where I come back," said Eric, "You are leaving the pub and your locking up and then you turn around and I'm standing there under a spotlight."
"Ok, let's see," said Kara, "Okay I'm ready. I'll start now."
"Oh my gosh," said Kara reciting her line.
"Hello," said Eric.
"Is that really you?" asked Kara.
"Yes," said Eric.
"Okay then I run over to you," said Kara.
"Yeah," said Eric.
"Okay, I've ran over to you," said Kara walking over looking at the script in her hand.
"I missed you," said Eric.
"Did you really? Is that why you never returned?" said Kara looking away.
"You know that I love you," said Eric.
"Do I?" asked Kara.
"You know I do," said Eric.
"But do you know," said Kara.
"Know what?" asked Eric.
"Know if you love me or not," said Kara.
"I wouldn't be here if I didn't," said Eric.
"Maybe, but maybe not. Maybe you think you love me because you're trying to hide the fact from yourself that you don't and---" said Kara.
Then Eric took Kara in her arms and kissed her passionately.
"Bravo!" said the director.
"Umm…" said Eric scratching the back of his head.
"Hehe," said Kara laughing nervously.
"That was great! Excellent. It was so real and so believable!" said the director.
"T-T-Thank you," said Kara blushing slightly.
"Thank you," said Eric.
"I must thank the Rob for casting you two as the lead. It's almost as if you had lived it," said the director.
"Hehe," said Kara blushing.
"Perfect. You guys just have that chemistry that I don't know. Perfect. Absolutely breath-taking. I don't know what to say," said the director.
"Just don't say anymore," said Kara.
"Alright then," said the director walking away.
"That was embarrassing," said Kara.
"You're telling me," said Eric.
"I hope I never have to go through that ever again," said Kara.
"I don't mind it. After all we have this certain, I don't know, a chemistry, it's breath-taking really it is," said Eric mocking the director.
"I know. We have a, well I don't know what to say," said Kara.
"It's just perfect," said Eric.
"Are you busy tonight?" asked Kara.
"No, why?" asked Eric.
"How about that dinner you offered?" asked Kara.
"Oh sure, that would be great," said Eric.
"Good, how about I meet you here after some wardrobe fittings?" asked Kara.
"Sounds great," said Eric.
"Ok, well I gotta go now. I'll see you later aiight?" said Kara.
"Aiight," said Eric smiling.
=Some familiar about that smile= thought Kara entering her trailer.
"So let's see, we are doing wardrobe for scenes 1-5 today and above if we have time," said Anna.
"Okay, we can skip ahead and do other scenes. I'm not in scene 1-5. That's all the character development and story development. Wait, I'm in it for a few minutes. I'm not sure. I think that this is a bad time to be doing this since I don't know what scenes I'm doing and all this stuff," said Kara.
"Yeah that's right. Hold on. I'm going to phone the other characters. See if they're having the same problem," said Anna.
"Alright," said Kara.
"Yeah. Uh-huh. Yeah, us too. Aiight then. Bye," said Anna.
"And?" said Kara.
"Yeah, the same problem. Only the people who are in the beginning scenes, meaning 1-5 aren't having trouble," said Anna.
"I see," said Kara.
"We'll just wing it for those scenes. I think that we'll just do that every day," said Anna.
"Alright then," said Kara.
"So you are free to go," said Anna.
"Alright so I just do what? Leave?" asked Kara.
"No wait, maybe we'll do a bit of filming today," said Anna.
"So should I just throw something on and surprise you?" asked Kara.
"Sure knock yourself out," said Anna.
"Alright then," said Kara.
Kara went through all the racks of clothes. She grabbed something and something else and went over to a change room. She was in there for about fifteen minutes until she came out.
"Well look at you," said Anna.
"What do you think? I have horrible taste don't I?" said Kara.
"I wouldn't say that. You could have my job," said Anna looking over Kara. She was wearing a pair of black pants with a slight flair at the bottom and a light lime green coloured turtleneck.
"Thanks," said Kara.
"So go out there. Talk to the director. Actually find out his name," said Anna.
"Alright then," said Kara.
"Hey Kara!" said Maria as Kara walked out of the trailer.
"Oh hey Maria," said Kara.
"How are you?" asked Maria.
"Not sure. I'm not sure when to film and what to do so I'm looking for the director," said Kara.
"Oh, okay," said Maria, "I'm going to go find Eric."
"Eric? Why?" asked Kara.
"Oh I just wanted to, ya know. Talk to him and stuff," said Maria.
"That's cool. Anyways, I'll see you later," said Kara.
"Yeah," said Maria.
So Maria went on her own way and Kara went to find the director and surely enough, she found him.
"Hey, umm…Director?" said Kara.
"Yeah, that's me," said the director.
"Yeah, this is kinda embarrassing," said Kara, "What's your name?"
"Oh sorry. I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Jeremy Starr," said Jeremy.
"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you. So are we going to do any filming today? Wait, dumb question. I mean ya know. Rehearsals and such stuff," said Kara.
"Well we'll do some rehearsing and stuff," said Jeremy.
"Right, anyways, do you know what scene's we'll be doing today?" asked Kara.
"No clue," said Jeremy, "Actually we will be doing some filming today. The first scene. You're not in it, but I'd like you to come watch. I heard you were interesting in directing."
"Yes," said Kara.
"Anyways, let's just do that now," said Jeremy, "Alexandra! Tell everyone to be on Set 6, for scene 1."
"Yes sir," said Alexandra.
"The low down on this scene is the two younger versions of you are kissing in the hall and this is like one of the scene's before he leaves you. Wait! You are in this scene. You're looking through pictures. Alright, you go to wardrobe right now, okay?" said Jeremy.
"Alright," said Kara rushing off to wardrobe.
Kara entered her dressing room.
"I'm in scene one," said Kara.
"Alright, so what are you doing?" asked Anna.
"Looking at pictures and remembering I guess," said Kara.
"Okay, something casual. Yes, I see it all now. A baby blue angora turtleneck sweater with just a pair of black pants and short black boots, yes, perfect!" said Anna, "I'll just go get those."
Anna raced around from rack to rack. She found a baby blue turtleneck sweater, then raced to another and grabbed a pair of black pants and then went into a closet and grabbed a short pair of black boots.
"Here you go!" said Anna.
"Thanks," said Kara walking into her change room. A few minutes later she was out again.
"Perfect," said Anna, "Just perfect. Now off to hair with you."
Kara went to the hairstyling part. No one was there so she sat down in the chair to wait.
"Hey Kara!" said a voice.
Kara looked in the mirror.
"KATE!" yelled Kara getting up. She went over to Kate and gave her a hug, "What are you doing here?"
"I got a job doing hair and make-up on set for the movie at the last minute," said Kate.
"Oh good," said Kara.
"So what is it that they want done?" asked Kate.
"My hair, it's supposed to be a burgundy red and my hair is already layered," said Kara.
"Hair dying job? You won't be out of here for a while. Oh well, they can wait," said Kate, "I'll just go get the stuff and I'll be right back."
"Alright," said Kara sitting in the chair.
"I'm back now," said Kate, "So what have you been doing lately?"
"Oh not much," said Kara, "You just saw me like a few days ago. After I was done the last scene I took my jet down here and now I'm here. I did do some shopping. It was great."
"I bet," said Kate, "So this will take awhile and I think that it will look very nice with your green eyes."
"I was thinking that too," said Kara.
"So I'll be back to check on it in about half an hour, you know what's in my drawers so just fiddle around or something," said Kate.
"Alright then," said Kara.
She opened up the first drawer and saw a whole bunch of comic books, magazines, make-up, books and an assortment of other things.
"Hmm…" said Kara.
She picked up a Seventeen. She searched through it, as her dirty blonde hair turned to a deep burgundy red.
About 30 minutes later Kate came back to check up on Kara's hair.
"I think that it's done, it's pretty red and it's the shade that we want it," said Kate.
"Alright," said Kara.
Kate got Kara to lean her head back into the sink and she washed the excess dye from her hair.
"Beautiful. You hair looks very pretty when it is red. It goes lovely with your eyes," said Kate.
"Red and green, Christmas colours. Thank you Kate," said Kara.
"It was a pleasure, anyways, you are done here so you can go start filming," said Kate.
"I'll see you later," said Kara.
"Alright, have fun," said Kate.
"Thanks, bye!" said Kara.
"Bye," said Kate as Kara rushed out of the trailer.
Kara rushed down the walkway to the set.
"Finally!" said Jeremy.
"Sorry it took so long," said Kara.
"It's okay, let's just start filming, alright?" said Jeremy.
"Alright," said Kara.
A young woman aged 20 is walking around her house. She's doing some house cleaning. She's going through old boxes and photo albums. She picks up an album and a few pictures fall out. She picks them up and looks at them. She sits down on a yellow sofa and stares at a particular one as a tear trickles down the side of her face. The picture is of a guy aged 16 and herself at the age of 14 hugging.
"Aaron," she says softly as she puts her finger on the guy.
The scene morphs from her to a school dance. There are lots of teens dancing to music. The camera moves from them to the doors to the rest of the school. The camera goes down one hall and the turns to find two teenagers off alone in a hallway.
"I love you," said the guy.
"I love you too Aaron," said the girl.
"I have to tell you something Jennifer," said Aaron.
"What is it?" asked Jennifer.
"I have to leave," said Aaron.
"Why?" asked Jennifer.
"My dad's moving to Africa and he's going to be working with kids with aids in hospitals. He said I could stay here or I could go with him and work in the hospitals. I've always wanted the chance to do something like this, so I said I would go with him," said Aaron.
"You can't leave me," said Jennifer, "I love you."
"I told him I would go and I may never get a chance to do this every again," said Aaron.
"But what about us?" said Jennifer.
"Don't worry, I'll be back. I don't expect to stay that long," said Aaron.
"How long are we talking?" asked Jennifer.
"About a year. I hate to say this I think this is over between us. I love you, but I can't ask you to wait for me," said Aaron.
"I will wait," said Jennifer.
"Will you?" said Aaron.
"I love you and I will wait," said Jennifer.
"Oh Jennifer, I love you so much," said Aaron.
Then the two shared a passionate kiss.
Then the scene morphs from the kiss to an airport.
"I'll miss you," said Jennifer.
"I promise, I'll be back someday," said Aaron.
"And I promise, I'll wait," said Jennifer.
"Love you always," said Aaron.
"And I'll always love you," said Jennifer.
"This is for you, so you'll always remember me," said Aaron handing her a box.
"I have something for you too," said Jennifer.
"You open yours first, I hope you like it," said Aaron.
Jennifer opened the box. It was a silver heart shaped locket. On the inside of the locket there was a picture of him and her and on the back, engraved was J+A 4ever.
"Aaron, it's beautiful," said Jennifer, "This isn't much."
Jennifer handed him a slightly bigger box. It was a picture frame and inside was a picture of the two of them hugging. The picture frame itself was silver in colour and plain except for the engravings around the edges. The engravings read, 'I will always love you. No matter where you go, no matter where you are, I know our love will bring us back together someday."
"I love it," said Aaron, "I'll keep it close to my heart forever."
"Bye," said Jennifer as tears started to form in her eyes.
"Please don't cry," said Aaron.
"I can't help it," said Jennifer, "I can't bear to see you leave."
"I'll be back," said Aaron, "and I'll write to you all the time."
"I'll be waiting for you letters," said Jennifer, "Goodbye."
"Goodbye," said Aaron getting on the plane.
The years passed. At first the letters were frequent and one every week. After a few months they got to be 1 a month till after 4 years she had last received a letter a year ago and from the point her heart was breaking.
Then the scene returned to the young woman. She wiped away the tear and put the picture away in one of her drawers. Then the phone rang. The woman picked up.
"Hello," she said, "Yes this is Jennifer. Oh it's you Alex. Yeah sure, I'll meet you at the pub in about 10 minutes. I love you too, bye."
"CUT!" said Jeremy, "That was excellent. Yeah we'll keep that. Excellent job Kara and young Jennifer and young Aaron, that was great."
"Our names are Aimee and Paul," said Aimee.
"Yeah, that's it, I knew that," said Jeremy.
"You guys were great," said Kara, "How old are you two?"
"I'm 16," said Aimee.
"And I'm 18," said Paul.
"Have you guys ever been in a movie before?" asked Kara.
"No this is our first time. It's a small part, but it that was fun. I've read the story plot. It's very good. I just feel sorry for Jennifer and Aaron. Especially Jennifer, having Aaron leave and never come back," said Aimee.
"Uh yeah," said Kara, "I have to go."
"Is something wrong?" said Aimee.
"Oh nothing, I just have to go," said Kara running down the walkway.
"She's quite strange isn't she?" said Paul.
"I think what I said affected her in someway emotionally," said Aimee.
"How do you figure that?" asked Paul.
"Women's intuition," said Aimee.
Kara ran to her trailer and ran to the back of it where she went when she wanted to be alone.
=Deep breaths, just take deep breaths, you'll be fine. It doesn't matter what happened way back, but matters now is that you're a famous actress and you're better off without him.= thought Kara.
"I need a drink," said Kara.
She pulled out a bottle of Brandy and began to pour a tumbler full of it. She drank it slowly.
"This is just what I needed," said Kara.
"Kara?" said a voice, "It's me Maria."
"Not now Maria, I'm busy," said Kara.
"What are you doing?" said Maria.
"Nothing to be concerned over," said Kara.
"Oh no," said Maria walking into where Kara was sitting.
"Maria, it's fine, really. I was just having one," said Kara.
"I'll take that," said Maria taking the bottle of Brandy away.
"I was only going to have this one, and maybe another, nothing get you all worked up about," said Kara.
"Sure it isn't," said Maria, "I've tried to stay quiet about this problem of yours and I've tried to trick myself into thinking that it was all in my head but I know that it's something."
"What are you talking about Maria? It's just a glass of brandy," said Kara.
"One glass go to two goes to four goes to you being drunk," said Maria.
"I'm not like that," said Kara.
"The restaurant? You had a few margaritas which turned to mudslides which turned to one too many and you in the back seat for ten minutes with Eric Donovan!" said Maria.
"Eric Donovan? Maria what are you talking about?" said Kara.
"Nothing, just, it could have been like that," said Maria.
"I don't think so, you would think that if that happened Eric would tell me," said Kara.
"Yeah, probably," said Maria, "Anyways, no more for you. While you're working on this movie, you will have no alcohol whatsoever."
"I don't see why I can't have a few drinks," said Kara.
"Did you know that I found you passed out with about five empty bottles of assorted alcohol and 3 unopened and 3 or 4 empty in front of the cabinet? I cleaned them up and stayed up the rest of the night watching you and I watched you get up in the middle of the night and run to the bathroom. I heard you retching your guts out," said Maria, "Now can you ask if me why you can't have a few drinks."
"I didn't. That's not me, I couldn't drink that much," said Kara.
"You did," said Maria, "I'm worried about you. You weren't like this before. As you get older you drink more. When we were at that party you got piss drunk and nobody could understand what you were saying."
"I'm an alcoholic," said Kara devastated.
"But we can fix that, you can go to counselling and I'll be your sponsor," said Maria.
"I can't believe I let myself get this way. Using alcohol to solve my problems," said Kara.
"It happens to the best of us. So many people have had that happen and they've got through it," said Maria.
"I'll get a counsellor here to help me," said Kara.
"In the mean time, you should get back on set," said Maria, "and while your talking to an Alcohol abuse counsellor, you should get a psychiatrist, I think you still have some issue pertaining to him."
"Yeah, him," said Kara, "I don't care, I'm over that."
"Don't think you are, don't worry. I see you finding closure real soon," said Maria.
"What are you up to?" asked Kara.
"Nothing, I'm just thinking that with the alcohol counsellor and the psychiatrist, you'll find closure," said Maria.
"Yeah, maybe," said Kara, "Anyways I gotta go back on set, see you later."
"See ya," said Maria.
Kara went back to the set.
"What was that?" said Jeremy.
"What was what?" asked Kara.
"Running off like that. We have work to do," said Jeremy.
"Sorry, I had something I had to do," said Kara.
"Just. The day is almost over, we'll start filming again tomorrow morning. You go take a good look over the script and have tomorrow's scene for tomorrow," said Jeremy.
"Fine Jeremy," said Kara walking off.
"Good actress, horrible attitude," said Jeremy.
"Hey there," said Eric.
"Oh hi," said Kara.
"Your mind seems preoccupied," said Eric.
"I think I'm just hungry. I skipped lunch today so now I'm ready for something to eat," said Kara.
"How about that dinner you promised me?" said Eric.
"Oh right, the dinner," said Kara, "Do you want to do that now?"
"Seems like a good time to me, but if it's not a good time for you, I understand," said Eric.
"No, right now is fine," said Kara.
"So shall we go," said Eric holding out his arm.
"We shall," said Kara linking arms with him.
"So how was filming today?" asked Eric as the two walked down the street.
"We only did one scene, but it went great I think," said Kara.
"That's good, I don't come into the picture for a few more scenes, so yeah. I'll probably come down and watch you while you work," said Eric.
"You know, I don't consider it as work. In the eyes of the people who make me pay income tax it is, but it's what I love. I love acting. I always have and I think I always will," said Kara.
"Yeah, I love acting too, but still, it's work," said Eric.
"I know," said Kara, "So where are we going to eat?"
"An authentic Irish Pub," said Eric, "My friend's grandfather owns one here."
"A pub?" said Kara.
"Is that a problem?" asked Eric.
"NO! I mean no, it's fine, great, just don't let me drink," said Kara nervously. =I don't want him to know I'm an alcoholic!=
"That sounds like a good plan to me," said Eric also nervously. =Does she know what happened in the limo that night?!?!=
"Yeah, so where is it?" asked Kara.
"Right here," said Eric.
"It's nice," said Kara looking it over, "It's quite picturesque isn't it?"
"Yeah, wait till you taste the food. It is to die for! I was here once when I was younger. My friends Grandfather, Zachary O'Brien, owns it. You'll like him. He's very nice," said Eric.
"I'm sure I will," said Kara, "How about we go inside instead of talking out here?"
"Good idea," said Eric laughing as he walked inside with Kara following behind him.
"ERIC!" yelled a voice.
"Hey Mr. O'Brien," said Eric.
"How is my favourite actor?" asked Mr. O'Brien.
"I wouldn't know, do you see him somewhere?" asked Eric.
"Always the kidder," said Mr. O'Brien, "who is this pretty girl with you?"
"Oh, you don't recognize her? This is Kara Sulivan," said Eric.
"Kara Sulivan, bless my soul! I never thought I'd live to actually meet her," said Mr. O'Brien.
"Pleasure to meet you Mr. O'Brien," said Kara.
"What can I get you two today?" asked Mr. O'Brien.
"Menus would be good and I'll have your famous beer and Kara will have?" said Eric looking to Kara.
"I'll have a beer too," said Kara forgetting her rule not to drink.
"Ahem," said Eric.
"Just one beer Eric, I'll be fine, I won't have anything else after that," said Kara.
"We'll have two of your famous beers and after that no more for Kara no matter what she says," said Eric.
"Alright then," said Mr. O'Brien, "sit anywhere you like."
The two sat down at a table in the corner of the pub.
"So what do you think?" asked Eric.
"He's a very nice man," said Kara.
"Yeah, he's known me since I was little," said Eric.
Kara sighed, "Today was a long day."
"Tell me about it," said Eric.
"Here you go," said Mr. O'Brien, "Two of my famous brewed beer and a couple of menus."
"Thank you Mr. O'Brien," said Eric.
"Thank you," said Kara.
"No thank you, now I can say I had two famous actors in my pub," said Mr. O'Brien cheerfully.
Kara and Eric laughed, "Us? Famous?" they said, "Nah."
"Sure, sure," said Mr. O'Brien going back to the bar.
"I like him," said Kara.
"I knew you would. Wait till you taste his beer," said Eric.
Kara took a sip of it, "Oh this is good. This is just what I needed."
"I thought you'd like it, but that's all your getting," said Eric.
"I know, I said I'd have only one," said Kara.
"Hmm…What are you going to get?" asked Eric looking at his menu.
Kara looked down the menu and on the other side.
"I think that I will have fish n' chips," said Kara.
"That sounds good," said Eric, "I will have the same."
"When did you know you wanted to be an actor?" asked Kara.
"Pardon me?" asked Eric.
"What made you want to be an actor?" asked Kara.
"A few plays I did in elementary school," said Eric.
"That's all it took?" asked Kara.
"Yup, pretty much," said Eric.
"When did you become an actor?" asked Kara.
"I officially became one when I was 16. I starred in my first film," said Eric.
"Interesting," said Kara.
"What about you?" asked Eric.
"A few school plays was all it took. I remember this one I did. I had the biggest crush on the guy, but he moved away and I never saw him again," said Kara.
"So after that you knew you wanted to be an actor?" asked Eric.
"Yup, I starred in my first film when I was 16 too and I've been doing movies since," said Kara.
"That's cool. Funny we should both know we wanted to be actors from just a few plays," said Eric.
"Yeah," said Kara.
"What is it you'd both like?" asked Mr. O'Brien who had come back.
"We'd both like fish n' chips please," said Eric.
"Right away," said Mr. O'Brien disappearing again.
"So did you enjoy working on your last movie?" asked Eric.
"Oh yeah," said Kara, "It was a great movie."
"When is it coming out?" asked Eric.
"This summer," said Kara.
"I'll look forward to going to the premier," said Eric.
"Who said I'd invite you?" asked Kara sternly.
"Well, I uh, you see…" said Eric nervously.
Kara laughed, "I'm just messing with your head. Of course you'll be invited, you're my friend."
Eric sighed, "Please don't do that to me again."
"I must be some kinda actor to fool you," said Kara.
"You're a great actor," said Eric.
"Here you go," said Mr. O'Brien sitting down two plates.
"That was quick," said Kara.
"Quick service for my two favourite actors," said Mr. O'Brien.
"Thank you," said Eric.
"Thanks a lot," said Kara smiling at him.
"Your welcome," said Mr. O'Brien disappearing back to the bar once again.
"This is delicious," said Kara.
"It is," said Eric.
"I'll have to come back here again," said Kara.
"I agree," said Eric.
So the two talked for a long time with Kara only having 1 beer for the whole night and soda for the rest of the time.
"I think it's time I headed back to my hotel," said Kara.
"Yeah me too," said Eric.
The two got up and went to the counter.
"We're going to go now," said Eric, "So could you please give me the bill and I'll pay for it."
"Oh no charge," said Mr. O'Brien, "I don't have the heart to charge---"
"Your two favourite actors?" said Eric and Kara together.
"Exactly, maybe next time," said Mr. O'Brien.
"Are you sure Mr. O'Brien?" asked Kara.
"Dead sure," said Mr. O'Brien.
"Thanks a lot, see you later ducky," said Eric leaving the pub.
"Ducky?" said Kara as she followed Eric out of the pub, "Thanks Mr. O'Brien."
"Did you have a good time tonight?" asked Eric.
"You called him 'Ducky'. Why?" asked Kara.
"Old nick name I've called him since I was a kid," said Eric, "I always leave with 'see you later ducky'."
"I see," said Kara, "yes, I did have a good time."
"I'm glad, we should do this again," said Eric.
"I agree," said Kara, "my hotel is just across the street so I'll leave you."
"Are you sure you don't want me to walk you to the hotel?" asked Eric.
"It's just right there," said Kara pointing to a hotel across the street.
"I'll watch from here while you cross," said Eric.
"I'll be fine really, but if it makes you feel better go ahead," said Kara, "Thanks for dinner and I'll see you on set tomorrow."
"Yeah see you," said Eric.
Kara gave him a hug and a peck on the cheek and quickly crossed the street.
=What a girl= thought Eric walking in silence back to his hotel.
