DOS Ch-230
AN: This chapter mostly contains the reaction to the Half Blood Prince. You can skip it if it's not up to your liking. __________________________________ “What’s so special about this film that sets it apart from others in the series?” “The stakes are higher than ever,” Troy Armitage replied in a serious tone. “The best part about the film is the absence of the Dark Lord Voldemort’s direct presence, yet his influence is felt throughout. This is arguably the darkest chapter in the…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-229
“I knew you were lying, Helen.” Betty smiled viciously, keeping her voice low enough that no nearby adults would overhear. “You don’t know any celebs, let alone Harry Potter.”Helen’s hands curled into fists at her sides. She hated Betty. Betty was the one who had told everyone at school that Helen was lying about Troy being her brother. And the worst part was that she had no way to prove otherwise. No pictures. No home videos. Nothing to show the world that her older brother was actually…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-16
It took a full day of flying for us to reach Nadi International Airport in Fiji, with a brief stop in Hawaii. I wish we could’ve relaxed there, maybe soaked in the sun or had a real meal that didn’t come in plastic wrap. But Hawaii wasn’t our final destination. From Nadi, we boarded a couple of noisy, cramped seaplanes for an hour-long flight to Nunayu Levu, the private island that Columbia Pictures had rented for the shooting of The Blue Lagoon. “Fucking finally!” I groaned in relief, letting…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-228
I lounged on a beach chair under the golden sun, sipping chilled coconut water. The clear blue ocean had slow, methodical waves going through it while a soft breeze rustled the palm trees behind us. Beside me lay a girl just as breathtaking as the view, wearing nothing but sunglasses that matched my own state of undress. “I could get used to this,” she murmured, her voice languid and content. “You can come here whenever you want,” I said, stretching my arms behind my head. “I own this…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

“You want us to do what?” Peter asked incredulously, eyes wide as he leaned back on the couch like he was trying to distance himself from the absurdity of what he’d just heard. Beside him, Ash looked equally stunned, his mouth opening slightly in a silent whoa. “Exactly what I said,” I replied, grinning at two of my best friends’ bewildered expressions. “I want you two as my assistants on the film set.” “In Fiji?” Ash asked, blinking like he needed to make sure he hadn’t…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

Dennis sat slouched on his couch that Sunday afternoon. He needed something—anything—to kill time. The breakup with his girlfriend was still fresh, and the silence in his apartment only amplified the ache.He reached for the newspaper lying on the coffee table, flipping quickly to the entertainment section in search of a distraction. A bold headline caught his eye: ‘ set to cast its spell next week.’ Tempting, but Dennis didn’t feel like stepping out—not even for magic.He sighed. Why couldn’t…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

“Are you okay, Troy?” Chris Nolan asked worriedly as soon as he saw me inside my trailer. “I was worried sick when I heard you were in the hospital. We can postpone this part of the shoot for a few months if you’re unwell.”“Nah, I’m as good as I can be,” I said assuredly in my Joker voice. “And remember, I am Frank, not Troy.”Chris sighed. “Back to being your character, huh? And Gary was boasting that he stomped that part out of you.”I cackled maniacally before licking my lips.…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

I looked over at the modest house, about a half-hour’s drive from my parents’ place. The neighborhood was quite well-off, for a woman who, at one point, had been desperate enough for money to disparage me publicly.“Are you okay, Troy?” Paolo, my head of security, asked, his tone laced with concern. “We can go back and come here later if you want.”The way he kept scanning the area for potential threats made his true worry obvious: my safety if anyone recognized me.“No,” I shook my head. “I…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

AN: I have changed the ending of Ch-222 as per reader suggestions. It is after Troy meets Carla. I'm adding it here on top of this chapter as well, so you won't have to go back and read 222 again.Also, you might want to check out Ch-62 before reading this if you don't remember the history of Carla Armitage because I have taken a scene from there.Previously on Dreams of Stardom“Troy!” a woman in her mid-forties called out.The moment I saw her face, I froze.
