Shades Of Cool (Cillian Murphy Fanfction)

Chapter Five

Angelina sleeps in the living room on the couch with reruns of Doctor Who playing on the television

Matt turns off the television and sits at Angelina's feet. He picks them up and sets them on his lap

Matt: Angelina, Darling

Angelina wakes up

Angelina: yes?

Matt: are you alright?

Angelina: no.

Matt: what's the matter?

Angelina: I'm sad.. I guess.

Matt: why are you sad, Angel? How can you be sad when you've got all you need right here?

Angelina: it's not just about having everything I need. It's not just about getting what I want. It's- it's nothing. You're right. I guess I'm being ungrateful. I'm sorry.

She groans.

He frowns and nods, standing and dropping her feet.

Matt: yeah, you should be. I give you anything you want and need but yet you never tell me thank you. Now, time to get up. You've got work and you can't be late today.

She nods.

Angelina: okay. Thank you, Matt.

Angelina gets up and goes to get ready for work.

*meanwhile*

William, searching through his drawers: Melinda? Where are my pocket squares?

Melinda is in the kitchen cooking

Melinda: I threw them out. I'm getting you more today. The old ones were faded and some were very ugly.

William goes down to the kitchen to her.

William: you did what?

Melinda: I threw them away!

William: I thought we agreed to not throw away anything of each other's unless one of us says it's okay-

Melinda: I'm only trying to help you, Will.

William: Well, you've helped my morning get a little bit worse. But that's okay. I can just get another one on the way.

William kisses Melinda's cheek hesitantly and goes back up to his room.

----------------------------------------------------

We went over the rest of the scenes that were taken place in America before getting to Ireland. We laughed together and discussed what was happening at that moment in the film.

A few scenes after Angelina and her friends got to Ireland, she decides to go out on her own and explore County Cork. She stops by this bar and sits next to Cillian's character William. They speak to each other and soon go out and explore Cork together. They, of course, don't get to explore it all but they plan to finish the tour one day before she leaves to go home.

We said our lines together perfectly. No mistakes. No questions. But just how we were supposed to say them. We exchanged smiles and some laughs. But we never spoke to each other out of character. Once we were done, I tried to get to him, but other cast members either beat me to it or got in my way. While I was speaking to Brendan, who was a good friend of mine, Cillian had found his way out.

I still think that maybe it was best that I hadn't spoken to him that night. What was I gonna say anyway? "Hi! I'm Shanntia! I don't know what I'm doing right now but you're really attractive and such a great actor from what I see so far! I can't wait for our 'scene' together!" *smiles!*

Did I really even think of those words? I may need help. With life, I mean. I don't know whats wrong with me today.

When I got in the car, I glanced at my phone to see Austin texted me.

Drinks? I've got a feelin' you may need a few.. -A

I smiled and replied.

You always take care of me, Aussie. Yes, I'll have a few. ~Shann

Meet me at my place. Taylor's coming and so is Amy. I've also got another friend coming that I want you to meet as well. Turn. Up. -A

Right. see you then! :) -Shann

Austin really did know how to take care of me. He had this Shannie-Sense like Spider-man has his Spidey-sense that would tingle when something's wrong. If I was having a rough day, he'd know and text me. He wasn't just my manager. He was my best friend.

But as I was driving to his condo, I thought... Who was this other friend that was stopping by?

***************************************

OMG it gets better! I promise it does! I know, it's moving slow but once Shann and Cillian get to know each other, it gets better! Please don't stop reading!

I'll update maybe tomorrow.

Comment, vote, all that stuff.
