Chapter 9: Method Acting
To everyone else, this day of shooting was just like any other. But to Beca and Chloe, it was everything. That day they were shooting the scene their characters finally got together. It wasn't the last scenes they would have to shoot. It wasn't even the last scene they had together. But after this, the need to drive up the sexual tension was over. Their characters were together, for real. And that meant that soon, Beca and Chloe would also be together again. For real.
Chloe was looking forward to it for weeks. She spent the days leading up to it dreaming about it and just cleaning the house. I mean, it's not like she really needed too. They had been married for years, it's not like Chloe could hide anything anymore, even if she wanted to. But she had to do... something. So, she got the house especially ready for Beca's return.
Beca herself had packed up the hotel room a few days ago, far earlier than she probably needed too. All her bags were in the car. No need to return to the hotel at the end of the day, whatsoever.
While they were both so excited for this day, they also still had to shoot the scene. Earlier in the week they had already shot the dramatic build up scenes.
They even skipped their daily couch cuddle. All they wanted was to get on with it, get through their takes, and they weren't sure they could stand being so close together for now longer than they had to before it was all over.
Standing on set, everyone was rushing around, getting into their places. The makeup artists delivered some last touch ups to their make up. Before they knew it, they were rolling, and Jason called the scene to action.
In this scene they first had a few minutes worth of dialogue. They could feel all the tension leading up to this moment in the movie. And that combined with that they had all the tension in their own personal lives. Every single glance and desire. All those times they had to break apart, and go separate ways. All the times the tension was built and they were denied their release, it felt like it was all converging on this moment. Festering into a steaming pile of lust and desire.
By the time Chloe said the last line she was breathless, barely able to get it out. Then Beca was there, grabbing her and kissing her deeply. They felt the hot waves of their desire for each other running through them, and radiating from them. Chloe was wrapping her arms around Beca's neck, and Beca was running her hands up and down Chloe's back. Pulling each other closer and closer.
A few moments past where the desire to go further was almost to the breaking point, Jason would yell cut, and Beca and Chloe would forcibly yank themselves away from each other. They stood staring at each other, chests heaving. The scene was reset in a furry of movement. They were panting as the tried to calm their breathing, unable to break their eye contact. Not even with the miniature chaos of the reset around them, their worlds had narrowed to just each other. Then they started from the beginning.
After the first take, the crew froze in shock for a few moments, staring at what had happened.
As the takes went on, Chloe was being worn down as far as she thought possible. The lines she had leading up to the kiss were hell. Getting more and more sloppy, her voice getting more and more broken, her desire coming through more and more, as Chloe was being wound up. She was beginning to feel like she had gone mad from the whole thing. Starting and stopping, again and again. Kisses getting faster and more desperate.
As they pulled away after take #4 and the reset began, Beca was basically growling. She never felt so much like this, so hot and bothered, and so... turned on in her entire life, with Chloe across from her nearly glaring, her eyes so full of lust.
After the 5th take, Jason called for them to cut.
"Alright, I think we all agree that we have what we need." He looked at the crew, everyone nodding as they witnessed what was unfolding. "Beca and Chloe?" He turned to the two girls, their breathing as heavy as ever as they still were not able to tear their gaze away from each other. "Well done. We have all of what we need from you now. Take the rest of the day off together." The meaning behind his words evident to the two of them.
Although very few people knew of just how far they had gone to get the material, many members of the crew catcalled as the couple raced out of the building. Beca barely had the mental faculties to turn around and flip them off.
