DOS Ch-208.1
The moment we stepped into the Presidential Suite, the door clicked shut behind us. Quiet luxury enveloped the space—elegant, expensive, utterly private. It was strange how accustomed I’d grown to places like this, barely giving it a second glance, while Scarlett let out a low whistle of appreciation. Early in my acting career, I hadn’t been extravagant. Growing up poor with my biological mother had left me wary of spending on things I didn’t need. My adoptive parents had broken that habit by…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

“What the fuck…” I whispered, stunned and unsure what else to say. “Frank?” He set the grocery bag on the coffee table with a dull thud and walked over to shake my hand. “I know what you must be thinking, but I promise you, the last time we met, I had no idea you were related to Gloria.” Seeing him in a casual polo and jeans threw me off for a moment. The last time, he had been all business in a well-tailored suit. Now he looked like someone who spent his majority time at kids’ soccer…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-288
“Action!” The moment the word was said, the entire set came alive. Music filled the air, echoing through the vast soundstage like a heartbeat as everyone moved in unison. It felt less like a film shoot and more like watching a living, breathing symphony. Scarlett and Natalie Portman were at the center, their movements blending seamlessly with those of the professional ballet dancers surrounding them. There was no clear distinction between the stars and the background performers, yet my eyes never…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-1
I love motorbikes. I wasn’t rich, per se, but I had five of them in my little garage. My mom used to hate that I took one of my babies wherever I went instead of driving a car like normal people. Fuck normal people. They don’t know the joy of riding long distances in the fresh air, all the way out into the countryside, without a helmet, as the wind caresses your hair. Aah. I must have closed my eyes while riding because the next thing I knew, my baby had run over a boulder. The bike came to…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-40
Bill, the editor of Friday the 13th, leaned back in his chair with the kind of pride only a veteran could carry. The small editing room around us was the first time I had been in a setup like this, and I was beyond excited to learn something new. Reels of film were stacked in metal cans along the walls, giving the place a faint smell of celluloid and dust. “Film editing is the most crucial part of making a movie,” Bill said passionately. His voice echoed a little in the cramped space. “I can’t…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

Rose McGowan sat at the edge of the couch, fingers worrying the hem of her sleeve. The mansion smelled amazing, a faint mix of honey, rose, and jasmine. Yet, she wasn’t comforted by it at all. She had been in this position too many times to pretend she did not know what might follow. From an early age she had been aware of her good looks. Wherever she went, someone always mentioned them. So when an agent promised a big break in Hollywood before she turned eighteen, she had said yes without thinking.…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-286
“Congratulations on your win tonight, Troy.” “Thank you,” I said blandly, already losing count of how many times I’d heard that line over the last few hours. As much as I wanted to go home, collapse on my bed, and sleep for an entire day, appearances had to be maintained, or so I’d been told repeatedly by my publicist. Though I barely listen to him in most matters, this time I did. “What are your plans for the future? Can I interest you with a script I have ready? You seem perfect…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-39
I stood outside my childhood home, taking it all in. I’d never spent this long away from it since the day I was born in this body, and the distance made everything feel strange and unfamiliar. If I hadn’t met Dad at my new place when I did, I probably would’ve hesitated to come here on a Sunday, knowing he’d be at home. But I couldn’t push this visit any further, not with post-production on Friday the 13th starting soon. Leaving my hesitation on the porch, I pressed the doorbell once before…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

Brett leaned back on the couch, staring at the TV with little interest. “Tell me again, why are we watching the Oscars? Can’t we do something better?” His girlfriend, Patty, whipped her head toward him with a scandalized expression. “How can you say that? Don’t you know who’s nominated tonight?” “Yeah, yeah. You and your crush on Troy Armitage, I know.” He waved a hand dismissively. “And after watching the movie, I agree he deserves every award he can get, but these things are…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

February 2009, Stratford, Ontario, Canada Justin walked forward with light steps, already dreading what was waiting for him. He had a strong feeling that he was about to get the reprimand of a lifetime, thanks to the asshole who had become his new French teacher. So what if he had skipped a class or two? It wasn’t like he was the only one who did that. Still, he was ninety percent sure Mr. Raphael had already called his mother, and once she got a call from school, she never failed to make his life a…- 930.1 K • Ongoing
