She was in the make up trailer getting her final touches done. The moment the make up artist gave her a smile of satisfaction Selena was off. She exited the trailer and darted straight to where she was needed on set. She had her script in hand and her lines for the day completely memorized. She hadn't met Miley yet but she heard a few murmurs that she was on set and was almost ready. Her eye caught a glimpse of a couple leaning against the wall of the studio. His curly hair blocked the view she could have of the girl.
The girl was giggling softly as she saw the boy murmur a couple of words. He shifted his stance so that Selena caught sight of her dazzling smile. She had the famous blonde wig. Maybe it was the way she was standing or the way she was smiling, but she seemed larger than life. She grabbed his hand as she started walking towards the set. Selena straightened up and started to focus on her script.
"What do you want to do tonight?" Selena heard her ask him. He shrugged looking around. His eyes caught Selena's. "Nick, stop being shy," she giggled. She turned towards Selena and smiled. "I'm Miley," she stuck out her hand. Her confidence was overwhelming.
"I know," Selena replied back as politely as she could. She extended her hand and met Miley's. "Selena."
"I heard about your show," Miley babbled. "I love the idea. Wizards on Disney channel would be pretty awesome," she smiled. Selena blushed a little bit and looked down. "Oh, come on, are you nervous?" Miley took a seat next to her. Nick stood a bit awkwardly beside her, but Miley wasn't phased. She slipped her fingers between his, which seemed to make him relax.
"A little bit," Selena admitted. Miley looked at her expectantly. "I like acting its just. Seeing how you have to deal with the media and paparazzi. Its kind of scary…" she trailed.
"I don't think you should let anyone stop you from what you really want to do," Miley advised wisely. Selena looked up at her. Miley, even sitting down, was a couple of inches taller than Selena. "I have to go get some stuff from my room. We'll be back," Miley smile reassuringly. She got up and Nick led the way towards her room. Selena saw his lips move rapidly as Miley let out an obnoxiously loud laugh and scooted in closer to him, laying her head on his shoulder. She could see him smile even when they got farther away. Selena looked back at her script and recounted the previous experience. She wanted that confidence that Miley seemed to have. She looked back at their interlocked fingers and how comfortably they were moving together. And in that moment, Selena couldn't help but wish she was her.
