September 2003, Kloves Residence, LondonI had thought that now that I was home, everything would be alright. But it wasn’t. Just because I had returned home didn’t mean the world would forget what happened. And the media was milking it for all it was worth.“Today, we are here in the studio with Mrs. Chloe Vlahos,” an American female reporter was saying. “Mother of Gia Vlahos, who has been apprehended for allegedly breaking and entering in the home of one Troy Armitage. Gia Vlahos has also been…- 930.1 K • Ongoing
- I still can’t believe that it happened. I felt as if I was in a daze. The lawyer that Dad sent over to us, Joel Sullivan, arrived at the same time as the police and the paramedics. The paramedics were mostly for Gia because she was the one who had passed out, but that didn’t mean I came out of the fight unscathed. Most of my face was bruised, and my head still hurt a little from when I hit it against the bathtub at the start of the fight. After establishing that I didn’t have a concussion, the…

- To put it simply, Roger was having a bad day. His insomnia wasn't as severe as some people have it, but lately, it had been getting worse. Usually, after taking medication, there were one or two days each week when he couldn't sleep at all. But this whole week, he hadn't gotten even a wink. This condition was quite common among veteran soldiers.Steve knew about his condition when Roger joined as Troy’s bodyguard. So when Roger called Steve to tell him about the boy’s shenanigans a day before, Steve…

- “Thank you so much for the lift, Stephen,” I said gratefully to Chbosky, who drove Tobias and me back home when Roger was unreachable for quite some time.“Think nothing of it,” he smiled at me genially. “It is a bitch to get a cab in LA unless you’ve booked in advance. Take care, yeah?”“I will. Thanks again,” I got up from the window to let him pull away from the driveway.“Roger is very irresponsible,” Tobias complained loudly as we stood together at the spot. “Who does that? He’s…

- Rian couldn’t believe his luck at all. Not only had Troy Armitage read his script, but he liked it so much that he wanted to meet as soon as possible. Since it was getting late that night, Rian drove over to Troy’s big Beverly Hills home the very next morning. He was a little intimidated by the opulence of the place, but he curbed that thought. He knew that if he were successful, he could have a similar place of his own. Maybe not today, but definitely someday.“Rian!” Troy walked over in a loose…

- August 2003, Universal Studios, Los Angeles“Troy!” The old man behind the table stood up and walked over to me as if we had known each other our whole lives. Then he proceeded to shake my hand vigorously.“Ron,” I greeted with a fake smile. “Nice to meet you again.”“Of course,” Ron nodded magnanimously after separating from me. “I was so disappointed you left early during 's post-Oscar party. I had planned to discuss more projects with you and your parents.”“I had to start shooting for…

- July 2003, Kloves Residence, LondonTobias took a deep breath as he entered his employer's villa. The interior was astounding, top-of-the-line yet cozy enough to feel like a home."We'll beat you today, Troy, Emma," a male voice called out from the adjoining room. Having been here many times, Tobias didn’t need any help navigating, so he walked straight to the living room. A huge TV was installed front and center, with a game console attached. Four teenagers were sitting in front of it, and two boys (Jamie…

- July 2003, Leavesden Studios, LondonI raced inside the maze, with Henry Cavill right by my side.“See you on the finishing line, Harry!” He grinned as he dashed towards the left, while I went right. Ignoring the cameras around me, I kept running aimlessly for what seemed like hours (because of all the retakes), before finally, a giant black teddy bear was in front of me again, which I recognized immediately. It was the same figure used in the for a dementor.“Expecto Patronum!” I waved my wand in…

- “Hello! I’m Troy.” I shook hands with the man who had an eerie resemblance to me. He was slightly taller than me but had the same build and hair color. One major difference was the age. The man was eight years my senior.“Of course, who wouldn’t know you,” he beamed at me while shaking my hand vigorously. “I’m Raymond Clark, but you can call me Ray. My siblings, who are much younger than me, are huge fans of yours. We were having a ‘Troy Marathon’ last week where we watched all your…

- Tobias was an alright fellow, I guess. I'm still a little miffed that his duties were curtailed to become more or less my babysitter by my mother. Not that I'd let him stay that way. Honestly, I'm surprised my mother let me hire him. No one can deny that it is past time that I got a team of my own, but hiring anyone new permanently meant a great reduction in my mother's duties, which she saw as me growing up. When I first floated the idea to her after receiving Tobias' email, she had literally cried. I…
