“Well?” Bobbie prodded gently after a few seconds of silence. Julie hadn’t said a word, her hands folded tightly in her lap under the lights. I decided to answer for her. “I don’t know about Julie, but my father was furious when he found out.” Bobbie turned to me, curiosity flickering across her face. “Because of the nudity?” I shook my head. “Not really. Dad doesn’t like acting in general. He doesn’t think it’s a great profession. Or at least that’s what he used to think…- 165.3 K • Ongoing
AN: I strongly recommend you to watch before continuing the chapter. SPOILER ALERT.__________________________Christmas and New Year passed by quickly, along with my tenth birthday. I got some pretty good video games including Pokemon, Fallout 2, and Super Mario 64 with my own Nintendo 64. I knew of these games when I heard their names, especially Pokemon with their massive franchise beginning from the games and moving into anime. But for some reason, I have no memory of playing them in my past life.…- 930.1 K • Ongoing
- The mid-morning sun spilled across the semi-open veranda of Hawthorne Keep, tinting the world in warm gold. It was rare to get such good sunlight in the U.K. during this time of the year, so I decided to have this meeting outdoors. Howard Stringer sat opposite me at the polished wooden table, his half-finished iced tea beading with condensation. His expression was calm, but his tone was blunt when he finally gave me his opinion. “The Japanese would never let you own the company,” he said…

- After my failed attempt at getting Spielberg to change the climax of the film, days went on normally. Or as normally as they could go on a film set. Steven had taken it upon himself to praise me to heaven and back whenever I would do a good scene. One thing I noticed was that all that praise was solely focused on me alone. He never went out of his way to praise the adults as much as me, even if they had given master performances, which led me to believe that I received praise only because of my age.It was…

- Imogen Poots glanced around the set nervously, her eyes darting to the cluster of uniformed security guards stationed at various corners. They moved with precision, checking every crew member’s ID and scanning the perimeter as if expecting trouble at any moment. She turned to Jamie Bell, who stood beside her with his hands casually stuffed in his jacket pockets. “Is this…the new normal around Troy?” she asked quietly. Jamie followed her gaze, watching as one guard paused to inspect a lighting…

- @SereneDreamer: If you still think Troy’s wrong, then it’s obvious you’re missing a few brain cells. You wouldn’t blame a bookie for making money off the loss of your favorite team. Sure, Troy made money, but at least he’s giving back to charity instead of hoarding it. Most of you have no idea how much $4 billion actually is. No other billionaire has ever made such a generous donation. This will probably go in the Guinness Book of World Records as the biggest donation ever. @NovaKnight: Love…

- After what felt like an impossibly long night, Scarlett was finally resting against my chest. She wore one of my t-shirts, oversized on her frame, the hem just brushing the tops of her thighs. We could have stayed at her place longer to get her clothes, but I didn't want her to stay there any longer than strictly necessary. She was shaken, her hands trembling even in the car. Waiting there any longer would mean questioning by the police, which would take hours. She looked like she'd fall apart if we'd…

- “You son of a bitch,” Peter said with a wide grin after placing the script of Risky Business on the table. “You really want to do everything yourself, don’t you? I thought you’d leave the behind-the-scenes work to Ash and me, but no… you wrote a script, and now you want to direct it too?” I chuckled and plucked the script back from him. “Not my fault you never managed to stick to one job long enough to master it. You tried everything and ended up doing nothing.” “I take offense to…

- January 2005, Warner Bros HQ, Burbank, CA“What?” I asked, surprised. I hadn’t expected this at all. The way Barry phrased the question didn’t make any sense. If he wouldn’t accept this proposal, I’d simply go to Universal who gave me the second-best offer.“I have offers from other studios as well if you won’t agree with this,” I said after a few moments.“I know,” Barry nodded knowingly. “I just needed to have a face-to-face chat with you about this. A chat your father would not…

- “You are very pretty, Julie,” I said honestly to the girl sitting beside me. Julie blushed visibly before ducking her head. “Oh, come on. Don’t use one of your lines on me.” “I’m not,” I insisted. “If I were using a line, I would say something like, ‘Are you sure you’re not a fallen angel? Because you have landed right into my heart.’” Julie laughed beautifully, and all her nervousness from before vanished instantly. “That wasn’t half bad,” she complimented. “I…
