aurora rising one shots, volume two.

"I never took that bet!" ✨

Au where the squad are actors working on the Aurora Rising tv show.
They're approaching the finale of the show, though.

Idk just an idea.

Landon = Tyler
Millie = Scarlett
Jamie = Fin
Rosalind 'Rosa' = Zila
Eva = Cat
Riley = Kal
Alex = Auri
Bailey = Saedii

"Aaaaaand, cut!" Our director -Adam- shouts.

"Holy fuck yes." Millie sighs, and peels off her flame red wig, revealing a torrent of black hair.

"FRAPPES FRAPPES FRAPPES!" Chants Jamie.

I let out a laugh. He's every bit the character that he plays.

Well, most of us are. That's how Adams wanted it to be.

Eva, Bailey and Millie are the badasses.
Rosa is the smartest person I've ever ever met.
And Riley...

Riley.

Riley plays Kal, the guy who I love in the show.
It's...strange.

I don't know how I feel about him.

I mean, I've kissed him.

And worked with him for almost four years now.

But I don't like him...do I?

"Alex!" Riley calls, tapping me on the shoulder.
His accent is rich. British, maybe? Hell, I don't wanna know what mine sounds like. I've been all over the world for my acting jobs, so my voice will sound crazy.

"Hm?" I ask, turning.

He's got his wig off, revealing a short blonde buzz cut.
"Do you wanna go over our lines? For the finale, I mean?"

I nod my head, hair hanging in my eyes ,"where do you wanna go?"

"My caravan?"

"Sounds good."

~~~

"Kal, I hate you for what you did to us!" I cry, clutching a hand to my chest.

"Aurora, please, I love you!" He shouts in a dramatic sort of desperation.

I can't help it, I burst into giggles.

He starts laughing too, clutching his stomach with tears streaming down his face.

I rest my head on his shoulder and place my other hand on his shoulder, still laughing.

He comes to a gentle stop.
"But the thing is, Alex, I do love you. And I didn't just ask you here to rehearse lines, I asked you to come here because we only have two weeks of filming left and I really don't want to lose you."

I let out a soft sigh.
"I...I do too. Hell, we've known each other for four years now, how couldn't I love you?"

He gives me a dorky, shy grin.
"Can I kiss you?"

"You may, Kaliis."

He leans down and kisses me, and the world lights on fire.
I hook my hands around his neck, and he tangled his in my hair.

"YOU OWE ME FIFTY BUCKS JAMIE!" Millie screams.

"Wha—" I say, disentangling myself from Riley.

"I never took that bet." Grumbles Jamie.

"Suck it," Millie says ,"you owe me a frappe."

"I NEVER AGREED TO THAT!"

~~~

I actually really enjoyed writing this!
Would you read a book that was like this? Like, an AU that's like this?

Love you alllllllllll
