General POV:

"You, my friend, are abnormally tall, it's ridiculous." Chris teases Sebastian as his friend stands on top of a box. "You couldn't have gotten Leander do this one?" Sebastian playfully jokes back, smoothing down his brown sergeant uniform.

"I mean, come on, being taller than me for a little while is somethin' to be proud of," he nudges Sebastian. It was day four of filming. Most of the background was pretty 1930's. It was vintage, the simple color schemes, the lighting, the posters. Sebastian knew you were going to love it. But you had decided to sleep in today, promising him you'd see him a little later in the day as you were up all night doing... some research. But it seemed like you lost track of time. "She comin'?"

"In a few." Sebastian says, putting his phone away after sending you a text asking of your whereabouts. They had just finished the scene at the alleyway and now they were gonna film one for the New York exposition with two extras, but the director, Joe, and the cast director had trouble looking for the assigned extras, so they decided to give everyone a break for the meanwhile, giving the two men time to roam around set, review a few lines before getting back on camera.

Back in the hotel, there you were, brushing your teeth as you hurriedly tried to comb through your wet tangled hair.

You were late. Really, really late! Sebastian was sure to kill you. You promised him an hour after he left and it's now nearing lunch. You did a quick three minute blower and put on some denim shorts, a thin button up, a baseball cap, and some sneakers you didn't bother to tie up now.

You were running off to the studio, catching a ride mid-run since Sebastian took the car Marvel had rented for the two of you.

You ran in and greeted the sweet lady at the lobby, (Kristen/Valerie), before running off to the largest room of the studio. That's where they were going to put in the green screens and special effects, where some of the acting would take place.

You walked in and put your bag on one of the tables set up there, waving to a couple of friends from the costume designing department. You noticed the pretty swing dresses and heels on one corner. Must be for Hayley. She was going to shoot her scenes one of these days now. You continued your way and finally found Chris and Sebastian. You let out a breath of relief and walked over, where they were casually just talking in their set clothes.

"Hey guys, missed me?"

Sebastian crossed his arms and looked you up and down. "Well, you're late."

"What can I say, I'm a woman out of time," you shrugged your shoulders, tossing him a can of root beer. Chris stretches his arms and let out a yawn. "You need anything Evans or are you good?"

"If you can transfer energy to my system, that would be great honey," he said in an exaggerated, exhausted manner. You smiled and got up. "I'll get you an energy drink then."

"Coke would be fine."

"Could've just said so Evans." you hollered back to him as you grabbed a bottle of coke from one of the many coolers they had laying around. But before you could turn your back and head back to your two friends, one of the editing staff, Jasper, walks up to you, a worried look plastered on his face.

"Hey, miss? Hey, hi, we need help."

Wait, what? You looked up and raised an eyebrow up slightly. "Me? Um, sure, what can I help you with?" you asked, setting the can down and rubbing your wet hands on your shorts. Jasper grasps your hand.

"We need two ladies for the next scene, an announcer and a date."

You pursed your lips in a thin line. "A... date?"
