ROR CH FOURTEEN

My head shoots up towards the voice and sure enough it's my one night stand. My stomach drops and I sink back even lower in my chair. He looks different then this morning or at the club, he looks more serious.

I keep my eyes lowered and try to hide behind Neels body since his elbows are on the table kind of shielding me from Adrian's view.

My heart thunders, investors are on set all the time to see how the movie is going. Does this mean I'm going to have to see him a lot or is it just his father that's an investor. Maybe I'm overthinking it, maybe he doesn't remember. Adrian thankful sits back down not even noticing me and then Brandon stands up.

"Hey, I'm Brandon and I'll be Levi as you can tell by the hair." He grins running s hand through his now bubble gum blue hair. The entire table laughs before Kai stands up and introduces himself.

After Kai, Luca who I vaguely remember from that party at Brandon's house a couple weeks ago goes next and before I know it it's Neels turn.

"Hi, I'm Neels I'll be Landon." He smiles waving a little before sitting down and then it's my turn. I stand up slowly a small smile on my face as I glance at Bryan then at Brandon who has a little smirk on my face before looking at Adrian who's having a conversation with Mark but I still keep my eyes trained on him.

"Hi, I'm Victoria and I'll be Harlow."

Adrian stops whatever he was saying to Mark and looks my way his eyes widening. Brandon of course chooses this moment to let out a loud hoot and claps pointing at me. I tear my eyes away from Adrian laughing a little at Brandon before sitting down.

Blaze introduces himself sounding almost bored before sitting down. Then Bryan continues to explain how the shooting process is going to go. We'll be shooting for three months straight, the last month in Canada. Most of the shoots are going to be later in the day, meaning that I'll still get to my classes and it won't effect my final exams since we'll be don't shooting by then.

"Okay now that all of the boring stuff is over let's look at the script." Bryan instructs taking her own script out and opening it up to the first page.

"Lets start that the very beginning I'll be the nameless character. You're at a bar, it dark and gritty but Harlow is in her element, Victoria whenever you're ready."

I nod opening my script even though I don't really have to because I've already memorized this scene.

"Hey handsome" Harlow grins walking up to the tall man in the dark suit by the bar. She flips her hair over her shoulder before taking a seat on the bar stool.

The dark haired man with tattoos running up and down his arms turns to look at her and grins. He raises an eyebrow the silver piercing catching the light.

"Can I help you?" The man asks hesitantly but still moves closer to Harlow.

"First you can buy me a drink." She smirks and the man smiles a little before signaling the bartender still keeping an eye on her.

The bartender slides a drink towards Harlow and she catches it with ease before looking back at the man.

"So what's you're name?" He asks crossing his arms and Harlow grins.

"Laila." She responds before taking a sip of her drink

"Listen, how about we get out of here?"

Harlow smiles widely before downing her entire drink and standing up.

"Lead the way."

"Great job Victoria, but I really want you to hone in Harlow's confidence. This is her job, this is how she earns for her family. This is Harlow's element and I really want you to capture that with your tone." Bryan explains and I take in every single word of it.
