Amy didn't have any scenes for the first two days of filming. But she went to practices anyway to get to know the other actors and their characters. On the first day, Shadow didn't show up since he and Amy didn't have any scenes. On the second day, he had one scene. After that, he sat down in a chair and watched the rest of the days filming. Due to him coming the second day, the day after that many actors came to observe him even if they weren't shooting scenes. However, due to Shadow's cold shoulder, everyone seemed to keep their distance, sticking to watching him from afar.
During lunch time, he went with the others to eat. He ate silently while the rest of the crew chattered away. He ate and then went to the dressing room to get prepared for his scene with Rouge. She had started filming in the morning and was all ready to shoot by lunch. After he was done, Rouge's make up artist came to do a touch up before her take.
Shadow and Rouge had both debuted at the same time and acted as couples in multiple movies and drama's. They both held good looks that matched each other, even winning the best on screen couple title one year at an awards show. They had worked together so long and knew each others working style. Even though the two weren't a couple this time, the filming went smoothly. Halfway through the scene, the director cut for a break to let the actors touch up their make up. When they were done, they resumed their scene. The people watching felt like it wasn't acting, but reality. Eventually the scene ended, and Knuckles yelled, "Cut!"
They had been filming in a hotel, so naturally the entire crew was booked rooms since the hotel cut off service to other customers for the shooting. But since there wasn't enough room for all of them, the more top named celebrities got their own room, while the low celebs like Amy shared a room with her manager. After resting in their room for a while, the hedgehog and rabbit decided to head downstairs to the buffet table. After they took their plates, they noticed producer Robotnik waving to them to sit at a table with him and a few other celebrities.
"Ms. Rose, why don't you come sit with us?"
Robotnik was sitting with Knuckles, Rouge, Silver, and Shadow. The two went to the table and Cream purposely sat in the seat that was not next to Shadow, forcing Amy to have to sit next to her secret husband. Shadow chewed his food wordlessly as she sat next to him. Rouge smiled at Amy, "How are you holding up?"
"I'm doing okay. It's been exciting just watching people get into character. It's getting me pumped for my scenes." Amy stabbed her food and ate slowly. The way she did it went unnoticed by everyone except the red eyed hedgehog. Knuckles continued his conversation about how filming would go tomorrow. When he was done, Silver picked up his chopsticks, pointing them at Amy,
"So pinky, have you memorized your lines for tomorrow yet?" He winked at her and she giggled again. Shadow tightened his fist.
"Yes, I've memorized them all. Thanks for asking." She said with a blush. Rouge pointed to her food,
"Is that all you're gonna eat?"
Amy nodded and Shadow gave her a sharp glare, "Filming can be tough. You need to eat more."
Amy bit her lip as Robotnik ordered one more serving of food for Amy.
"SO, Amy, tell me about yourself." said Silver, "Where are you from? What school did you go to?"
Amy looked nervously at Shadow's plate, knowing if she looked at him it would give away her secret. "I'm um, from here. I'm, I was uh... actually, I can't remember the name of the school I went to." She laughed halfheartedly as she rubbed the back of her pink head. She continued to eat, hoping to end the conversation. Rouge and Silver finished their meals and headed off to their rooms. Once they left, Amy put down her chopsticks, "Man, I'm so full."
Robotnik looked at Amy seriously, "Amy, do you have any other endorsements other than filming?" Amy shook her head no in reply, and he continued, "How would you like to model for a friend of mine? He runs a European cosmetic brand. I find that your looks and personality would easily land you a spot on their team."
Amy's jaw dropped, and Shadow clenched his chop sticks, looking to the side at the pink female.
"Mr Robotnik, do you think that's okay? After all I am still new to this and don't have much training."
"Why wouldn't you be capable? Mr. Shadow has already commended you on your abilities, so why not give it a shot?"
Amy smiled at his persistence, "All right sir, I shall take on your request. Thank you very much."
Before any other words were said, Shadow slammed his chop sticks on the table, stood up, and gave Robotnik a look, "Can we talk?"
Everyone gave each other scared eyes, but Robotnik nodded and stood, following Shadow, but not before giving Amy a friendly pat on the back of her bare shoulder.
Amy gave Knuckles a strange look as the two walked away. The red echidna shrugged.
"I should get going too. It was nice meeting you Ms. Rose." He stood up and walked off. After a few minutes, Amy looked at Cream. Cream looked at Amy.
"Something is up with Shadow."
"Huh?"
"Amy," she held her friends shoulder, "Shadow was acting... almost possessive of you."
"What? Are you kidding? He is not possessive of me." Amy stood up, "We should get going." She went to leave but noticed a script was left at the table. She picked it up and read the name.
"Whose is that Amy?"
"It's Shadows. He must have left it." She held the paper to her chest, "I should return it to him." They walked back to the room silently, and only then when the two were alone in the room and no one could hear, did Amy pull out her phone to call Shadow. After a few moments, he picked up,
"What is it Rose?"
Her heart skipped a beat at the nick name, "You left your script at the table during dinner."
It was silent for a moment before Shadow told her to come to his room, and then the line went dead. Amy sighed and turned to give Cream a look.
"I'm going to go return this to him. If i'm not back soon, then don't worry." Cream nodded and watched Amy walk out the door.
