In the end, I didn’t have to call my childhood friends over to help me out. I hadn’t expected the entire VES department to fight for a spot on my crew, but in hindsight, of course, they wanted in. “Noah.” A girl stood right in front of me, her posture rigid and her eyes blazing with determination. “I’ll be your cinematographer on this film,” she said. “That’s final.” I blinked, caught completely off guard. I’d barely stepped into the VES classroom and hadn’t even said…- 190.4 K • Ongoing
I walked into the living room of Casa Encantada after a long shower, which was badly needed after my hectic two-hour gym session involving weightlifting and Muay Thai. Working out has become my routine now, and I can’t imagine life without it. I used to maintain my shape in my past life as well, but back then it was mostly because of my profession. Who wants to see a pornstar who isn’t in good shape? Now, though, I do it as much for my health as for the aesthetics it adds to my looks. I walked…- 961.0 K • Ongoing
- Daryl looked up at me with innocent eyes, her naked form sprawled under me. All her shyness had left her since it was just the two of us. Her hands roamed all over my skin, feeling the contours gained through years of hard work. “How are you so…” She trailed off, not knowing how to finish the sentence. “So?” I prodded gently. “Well built. I’ve seen men before, but you’re on another level entirely. It’s like…you’re not even human.” I laughed at that, then hugged her body…

- Somehow, the announcement of our engagement and pregnancy pushed every mention of my birthday to the side. It was as if that no longer mattered, and to be fair, I agreed. Mum let out a delighted gasp as she took Scarlett’s hand, her eyes sparkling, just like the lilac stone she was admiring. “I love that ring. I would’ve loved to give you something ancestral, but Troy never told me his intentions.” She shot me one of her mild glares, the kind she used when she was scolding me without really…

- Doug typed furiously, the rhythmic clack of the typewriter keys echoing through the small, stuffy room. Sheets of paper already littered the floor around his chair, the casualties of discarded ideas. He was working on the rewrite of one of the key scenes of The Blue Lagoon, and the pressure weighed heavily on him. Just yesterday, Randal had urged him to hurry, insisting the production was moving faster than anyone had anticipated. The crew was somehow shooting underwater scenes at an astonishing pace.…

- May 2010, Los Angeles, CA, USA I held the phone close to my ear as the man on the other side explained how things stood. “We’ve finished pre-production on , and we’ll begin shooting next week,” Tobias said, his tone almost clinical. “Lily Collins has been cast in the lead role, opposite Henry Cavill as the prince, with Charlize Theron playing the evil stepmother. We’ve even cast seven real life dwarf actors as the dwarves. Once filming begins, , , , and will follow shortly after, in that…

- “Please welcome the biggest superstar on the planet. One of the best singers working in the industry right now, and the recipient of multiple Oscars, Grammys, Tonys, and Emmys. Troy Armitage, everyone!” The studio exploded the moment my name was announced. I walked out from behind the curtain, lights flooding the stage as the band struck up its familiar tune. I waved enthusiastically at the crowd, their cheers crashing over me in a wall of sound. The standing ovation was honestly a little too…

- “Are you serious?” I asked incredulously. “They’re offering me a knighthood again? Despite everything?” William nodded minutely. “They are. But this time, you have to accept it if you say yes. You can’t back out at the last moment.” “Of course,” I agreed. “I have no quarrel with the Crown or the government now that they are doing the right thing. Don’t forget, if I pulled a stunt like that again, it would look bad on me because my reason for rejecting it has been fulfilled…

- “It’s so cool to see you two together, doing a movie!” the woman in front of me gushed excitedly. “Don’t tell this to anyone, but you two are my favorite celebrity couple of all time.” I laughed and pointed at the camera placed behind her. “Thank you, but I think you just told everyone yourself.” She turned back to the camera and said, “Sorry, Brangelina, you two came second by just a single point. The competition was neck and neck.” Scarlett laughed at that and added,…

- Scarlett stared at me with her mouth slightly open, completely stunned. For a moment, she looked frozen in time. I stayed on one knee for almost a full minute, waiting patiently, but she still didn’t say anything. The silence felt heavier with every passing second. "Yes, no, maybe?" I asked finally. "Come on, say something. My knee is hurting." "Get up then," she instructed, sounding composed again. "Let’s discuss this before I answer you." That was not what I expected. I hadn’t ever…
