“Listen,” Taylor turned to me with utmost sincerity. “Have you ever worked with or served any celebrity before?” I shook my head, not wanting to tell him about Amanda Bynes. The less your employer knows about your other jobs, the better it is. “Then get ready,” he warned me. “We have multiple reservations this afternoon for the VIP section, and we’re a little short on the staff, so you’ll have to take over the duty. I guess you are experienced enough now to handle the big clients.…- 19.3 K • Ongoing
- AN: Before you start reading, keep in mind that this story has not been edited, so there may be many more grammatical or factual mistakes than you’d find in my other works. ________________________ “So it finally happened, huh?” I said as I opened my eyes again. The first thing to note was that the ever-present ache in my chest was finally gone. Another thing was that it didn’t hurt at all to stand on my own two feet like it did for the majority of my life. Then I finally took in my…

Prologue It all started where it usually does in these types of stories. I died. I don't remember much about my past life. Or at least the parts about my family and friends have been blurred into oblivion. I know I had a loving family. Parents, definitely. Sibling(s), maybe. Friends and lovers, not so sure. I bet you're not interested in what my life used to be, but what it is now. To disappoint many among you, no, I did not wake up in a womb, about to be squished out and soon to be smacked on my…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
- Moving to L.A. was hectic. To start things off, we had to complete my official adoption and file the papers with the authorities. I decided to keep my original name, Troy Francis Armitage to honor my late father Frank Armitage. Then we had to get a passport and visa for me. As Steve was a US citizen, it wasn’t too difficult to get a visa. At one point, Steve suggested that I give up my British citizenship and become a full-fledged American, but I was hesitant. Thankfully, Kathy…

- I stood on the Venice Film Festival red carpet with Evan and Jonathan to my right and Elizabeth Olsen immediately to my left. Matthew McConaughey stood beside her, with the rest of the principal cast of beyond him. I offered my red carpet smile to the cameras while resting my arm against Elizabeth's back. She didn't seem to mind the contact one bit, so I left my hand where it was as dozens of photographers snapped hundreds of photos every second. “This is beyond anything I'd ever imagined,”…

- I was sleeping peacefully after what felt like a very long time. My nights alone in hotel rooms might be good, but nothing beat sleeping next to Scarlett after an intense night of lovemaking. I reached out, expecting to feel her beside me, but all I found was an empty bed. She must've gotten up early to play with the kids. She'd arrived home a full day after me, so I'd had quite a bit of time alone with the twins. With that thought in mind, I didn't pay it much attention and went back to doing…

- “Troy!” Anne Hathaway came running up to me in her Catwoman costume and then did something unexpected. She hugged me. I hugged her back instinctively and said, “Nice to meet you too, Annie. Not that I’m complaining, but did I do something to warrant this hug?” She pulled away with stars in her eyes. “I binged yesterday. The whole season. And I’m absolutely in love with the series. It’s undoubtedly my new favorite TV show right now. I can’t wait for the next season to drop. Please…

- “It’s called impostor syndrome,” Scarlett said in a soft voice. “It’s the most common psychological problem actors have to face. And this is especially true for actors who are good at their jobs. People praise us so much that we start doubting their words.” “I’m not a psycho,” I retorted. “I don’t have any issues.” Scarlett gave me an unimpressed look but didn’t argue. Her fixed stare was enough to make me avert my gaze. “Have you ever faced this impostor syndrome?” I…

- Christopher Nolan looked at the man who had made the movie possible, Troy Armitage, who was getting ready for today's shoot. For a brief time, had been as good as scrapped. "If Troy doesn't appear in the sequel, people won't watch the movie," Jonathan Nolan, Christopher's brother and co-writer of the screenplay, had said seriously. "The film made as much money as it did because of the surprise reveal at the end about his identity. And he was the soul of the movie. If he's not coming back, we may as…
