Memories

Chapter 11

Ella's POV

"Walker, Ella, this is your scene." The director called out in a stern voice. This was about to get a whole lot more awkward, not that it's not already awkward enough.

"I guess we should go then..." Walker trailed off, walking past me. It's almost like a routine now, we argue, he gets the last word and walks away. 

I am definitely getting the last word next time.

When I got to the scene the first thing I saw was a skate board in Walker's grasp. At least I don't have to skate.

"So in this scene both of you will skate." The director started, looking in between the two of us. Before he finished a camera man pulled him over for a question.

"Can you skate?" Walker said asking the dreaded question.

I slowly nodded my head side to side not bearing a word.

"Wait you actually can't?" He asked again chuckling as he spoke. The idiot just wouldn't stop.

"No I can't, but can you dance? No so shut up would ya." I fired back, making fierce eye contact.

"I can dance, I did it with you." He said rolling his eyes.

"That was not dancing, if you wanna see danc-" I started before being cut off.

"We're ready to start now, Ella, Walker, if you could please get in position, the cameras are ready." He informed us.

Walker started off the scene doing some stuff on the skateboard. I have no idea what to call them but they looked pretty cool. He then skated down the railing, that was my que.

"How did you do that?" I asked shaking my head slowly. I met his eyes with an astonished look on my face.

"It's easy, I can teach if you if you want?" He replied proposing a question.

"Sure!" I accepted. He put out his hand which I lightly grabbed. I can't believe we were holding hands again. We walked over to the next scene, still holding hands, and waited for the cameras to be ready.

We both stood there in silence, eyes glued to sidewalk beneath us.

"You can stop holding hands now." The director chuckled turning my cheeks a bright red. We immediately dropped hands as soon as he said it. I felt Walker staring at me, but I didn't look up.

"Ella, you good? You look hot." He asked. Hot? Did he say I was hot?

"What did you just say?" I asked looking into his emerald green eyes. There was a small pause before he started again.

"I meant hot as in warm like hot chocolate. Having a high degree in heat. Um, Hot like temperature. Not like the attractive, beautiful type." He rambled on before taking a small glance at the director.

"Not that I'm saying your ugly, I mean you aren't pretty but you aren't well-" He started to ramble again more nervously, before being cut off.

"Walker! I get it you meant heat, you don't have to stress so much. Besides I think the cameras are ready." I comforted him with a small smile.

Walker's POV

I mentally slapped myself.

What the heck was that?!

Why did I have to use the word hot. I could've just said, 'oh you don't look to well', but no, I just had to stay something stupid instead. Great.

"Ok guys, ready?" The director asked interrupting my thoughts.

Me and Ella both nodded and got in our positions.

"And Action!" He called. Here we go.

We interlocked our hands and I started to say my lines

"Ok, so get on like this." I instructed. She listened and got on wobbling a little, but I was holding her hands so she wouldn't fall.

"Ok, I'm gonna roll you around for a minute, so you can get use to it." I said again. She nodded and looked at me, I looked back at her.

I started walking the skateboard around with her standing on it, wobbling still.

I started speeding up a bit, that's when she gripped on to my arms tight, I had to let her.

"Slow down!" She said gripping my arms tighter and tighter, afraid she would fall.

"It's fine, I got you, I promise." I reassured, glancing up at her red face. She nodded and looked back down towards the board.

"Ok, that was good, now let me show you a trick." I said stopping the board, she got off but was still holding my arms. She slowly let go of me a few seconds later.

"Ok, let's do it!" She said getting excited

She looks cute when she's exc- Wait did I just say was cute?! What? No Walker, this is acting, just acting.

She slightly nudged me. I smiled in response.

"Ok, so you get on like this," I said and got on the board and started to move slowly. "You push off like this." I said demonstrating.

"And then you do kinda like a jump and the board goes up with you and you land on it, it's called an Ollie." I finished explaining, and then did the trick and landed it perfectly. She looked quite impressed.

"Wow, that looked great!" She said.

"Thanks, now your turn." I said back chuckling and walking up to her.

"What if I get hurt." She said with a worried expression on her face.

"You won't, trust me." I said back trying to comfort her. She nodded slowly and got on the board like before and I was holding her again, like before.

"Not so fast this time" She told me. I nodded and started moving her slowly.

"Now try pushing off like I showed you." I told her. She used one of legs and pushed off slowly. 

"Good, now do that again" She did.

"Ok, we're gonna try and do the jump thing now, ready?" I asked her. She nodded slowly looking at me, I went a little faster and she was occasionally pushing off just like I told her.

"And now... jump!" I said. She did so and almost landed but fell off, good thing I was there next to her, cause she fell in my arms, and not on the ground.

"That was a good first attempt, you'll get it eventually." I said chuckling while still holding her. She was laughing too.

"And cut!" The director yelled. Ella stood up straight, so now she wasn't leaning against me anymore.

"That was great you two! I could really sense the connection between you." He said to us. Me and Ella looked at each other and then back at him.

"Yeah, I know right." I said awkwardly laughing. "The perfect couple" I said again scratching the back of my neck.

The director smiled at us and walked off.

"What was that? 'The perfect couple' was that really necessary?" She said smirking at me.

"What? I was trying to go along with what he was saying." I defended myself.

"Sure, whatever you say." Ella said back laughing, and then walked off to the rest of the cast. I stood there and watched her for a second.

"You coming, James?" She said turning around glancing back at me.

I smiled a little and followed slowly behind her.

I need whatever is happening needs to stop like now. I thought to myself.
