May 2005, LondonEvan was excited. It was the last day of filming his very first film. True, he hadn’t directed the film himself as he wanted to, but he’d written the script and directed a few songs for it. For now, that was more than enough. Usually, he didn’t skip classes to go to the set, but today was different. He had gotten permission from his foster parents to witness the final day of filming. With his current plan, he would be eligible to direct his first film in four years, as per the…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

“I just want to talk to her, Jackie,” Troy said emphatically.“And I told you that she is studying for her mock exams,” Emma’s mother retorted. “Why can’t you come back in a few weeks when she’s done with all her exams rather than disturbing her right now with…whatever this is?”From what Emma could gather, her mother wasn’t too happy with Troy at the moment and wasn’t shy about showing her disapproval. With the way their breakup had affected Emma, it made sense. Troy hadn’t said…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

April 2005, LondonThe ride back home was tense and filled with silence. I wanted to say so much to Emily, but the words wouldn’t come. What could I even say to her? I had no idea.

The shooting for the day was yet to begin, and since we were filming outdoors, I decided to check some of my financials in the meantime. The report from my business manager, Andrew Cohen, had been more than encouraging. Thanks to my active involvement in Crocs, their business was booming. The 2004 revenue had already reached $250 million, and it would almost certainly cross $500 million in 2005. I laughed inwardly, knowing that the company founders were probably regretting their lack of foresight in…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

At most it would have been postponed a little because of Tobias’ absence.”That was sort of true. Because of his sister’s…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

Reading comments on the internet,…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

“Don’t be nervous,” Tobias said gently as Diana held his arm tightly. “This is something most people go through sooner or later. Believe me, everything will be alright. Honestly, I thought you’d get married way after me, but hey, life has its surprises, right?”Diana took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves. She loved Tobias to death, but he was terrible at pep talks.“You wouldn’t say that if you were getting married at 21 because you were pregnant,” she retorted as calmly as she…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

Rod Meyer was excited. While he wouldn’t say it out loud, his favorite actor’s film had its premiere at Sundance. He had fought tooth and nail to be the one sent from his office to see the movie and write a review about it.He still remembered the first time he was completely enchanted by Troy Armitage when he saw . The only reason he had not proclaimed Troy to be the next best thing to happen to cinema was that it might sound odd for a grown man to admire a kid like that. If that wasn’t enough, Troy…- 965.9 K • Ongoing
