Melanie anticipated going into work tomorrow.  Maybe it was happiness, maybe it was nervousness.  It felt like butterflies.  Maybe a mix of both.  

She smiled as Sebastian walked into the makeup trailer that day.  She had been helping out with Scarlett's makeup.  Scarlett's makeup artist, Tracey, looked to the door when Sebastian walked in.

"Your boyfriend's here," she said jokingly.

"Ooh, boyfriend?" said Scarlett, as Tracey blended the blush Mel had just put on.  "Why didn't I know about this?"

Melanie rolled her eyes.  "Sebastian's not my boyfriend."

"That's what's been going around," said Tracey.  

"Please," said Melanie.  "He only asked me out for coffee."

"He asked you to coffee?" said both Scarlett and Tracey.  

"Yeah?" said Melanie.  "It's not a big deal." 

Sebastian smiled at her from the other side of the trailer, and Melanie smiled back.

"Aw, you two are cute," said Scarlett, smiling.

Melanie rolled her eyes again and walked over to Sebastian.

"Hi, Mel," he said, taking a seat in the chair. 

"Morning, Sebastian," she replied.

"You don't have to call me that," he said, taking a seat.  "I know it's long.  Seb is fine."

Melanie smiled.  "Okay," she replied.  She began taking out the hair extensions.

"Okay Winter, you're good to go."

"Don't we need the —"

"Oh, yeah," said Melanie, being reminded of the last piece of today's costume.  Today they were shooting the bridge scene, which included a lot of stunts — she would be needed for touchups often, and she also had to do the stunt double's makeup as well.

"Flashing," she said, as she took a photo for reference of Sebastian's makeup.  She had to copy it exactly onto the stunt double.

"Okay," she said.  "Here are the goggles." She smiled as she handed them to him.

Seb nodded to her and walked out of the trailer as his stunt double came and sat in the chair.  

"Winter number two," she said, pulling up the photo and beginning the makeup process on James.  

-- -- -- -- --

"Makeup!"

Melanie and two other makeup artists jogged over with their cases.  She turned to Sebastian and began touching up his hair for the second take of this stunt.  She then walked over to James, his stunt double, and made his wig look the same.

"Let me take a picture," she said.  "While you both look all Winter Soldiery."

"Okay," agreed James.

She took out her phone and quickly snapped the shot, then looked at it.

"You look good," she smiled.

"Thanks to you," said Seb.  

Melanie smiled. 

"You're both good, you can go."

They walked away over to a car, where they would switch out scene by scene for a fighting stunt with Scarlett.
