It's You [H.S.]

9.5 | All yours

21st October 2017

After an early start in London, Eloise landed back in LA just after lunchtime on Thursday, but her feet have barely touched the floor ever since.

She'd been filming until Wednesday night and, due to work all through the weekend, is running purely on caffeine, adrenaline and excitement. Daisy Jones & The Six premieres in a few days here and then in London, ahead of its imminent general release.

Based out of the Santa Monica office of Reese's production company, Hello Sunshine, she's been to-ing and fro-ing across the city for meetings, interviews, stylist fittings, drinks and dinners.

Hustling and bustling.

Schmoozing.

And snoozing - well, as and when she can. Jet lag is still a bitch.

With an uncanny ability to fold her long limbs up and drop off easily for a quick power nap, even in the most inopportune places, the promise of snatching forty winks sometime soon is about the only thing still keeping her on her aching feet right now.

That, and seeing Harry, obviously.

He, Anne and his team had arrived back in LA a few days ago, with a ten day break after wrapping up the hugely successful North American opening leg of the tour in Arizona.

Reunited after almost a month apart, she'd finally arrived at the house in the Hills on Thursday evening and struggled to keep her eyes open over their al fresco dinner. She'd ended up crashing out against his shoulder on the balcony sofa and he'd carried her up to bed.

Regrettably, she's not seen much of him since.

She had to duck out of Anne's birthday brunch early to head back to the Chateau Marmont for an afternoon tea with the last couple of journalists they couldn't squeeze into yesterday's press junket.

Hopping in an Uber, she snatches a teasing ten minute nap on her way to the Hollywood Bowl, where Harry is performing tonight at CBS Radio's breast cancer awareness benefit concert.

He had requested an early slot in the schedule to be able to slide off straight afterwards for the birthday dinner, but that meant an early soundcheck too, so they've been killing time there since early afternoon.

Eloise thanks the production assistant and heads quickly down the corridor backstage, towards the last room on the left.

Grinning as she hears Anne and her brother's matching laughs ring out - Harry had flown his aunt and uncle in yesterday for her final pre-birthday surprise - she slows up and peeks around the corner before heading in.

She spots them laughing with Gemma on the far sofa, but her eyes are drawn to Harry. Leaning against the wall, he's peering at something on Jeff's phone; delectable in bright green trousers, black Vans and an oversized brown jumper. He looks amazing, but that's not what he was wearing earlier, so she figures Harry Lambert must be about.

Cursing under her breath as her phone vibrates in her hand, she dips quickly back out of sight and paces along the corridor.

It's the film's Senior Publicist, picking up the last of their cut-off conversation from earlier. "Hi again... I get that, but he was pushy throughout and a bit rude to Suki and Sam too... Well I definitely noticed, and it was pretty awkward that no one stepped in... Look, I've got to go, but can you talk to them and try to avoid it again? Especially tomorrow... Okay, thanks. See you then".

As she's in the process of shaking it and work off to enjoy the rest of her Saturday, Jeff makes her jump, slinging an arm around her waist from behind.
