i was reading threw the scenes for today and realised today i had a massive fight/training scene with scarlet that was gonna be fun. Luckily for me it wasn't until later. Taking in a sharp breath i attempt to breathe and walk normally to where i was needed. High fiving chris h on the way for some reason; i go to hair and makeup. 

'morning' i greet my makeup artist cassie. 

'y/n its the afternoon' she laughs as i sit in the chair

'right' i smile 


Time skip like 2 hours


I just got my break after 2 hours of solid filming. When i walked into the lounge room i saw scarlet and lizzie talking in a whisper which was strange. To sore and tired i just lie on a couch across from them curling into a ball and closing my eyes. I had been active all day and my body was screaming at me to stop and take a break. And since my legs could barely hold me up anymore that's what i was trying to do.

I put music in very quietly and try to fall asleep even if its just for 30 minutes.

Scarlets pov

Lizzie was telling me her concerns about what y/n had told her and i began to realise the same things. When the door opened we started talking in a whisper but when we realised it was y/n we stopped talking and looked at her noticing how tired she seemed. she yawned looking like she could barely stand and dropped onto the couch sat in a ball trying to be a small as possible y/n closes her eyes after putting in what i assume was music.

'y/n?' i ask softly not knowing if she can hear me over her music 

'mhm' she mumbles not opening her eyes

'how was school' i ask as she looks exhausted

'good. Made a friend' she yawns and i smile. I notice she just wants to sleep so i be quiet and go on my phone.

'im gonna go do some paperwork, talk to you later guys' lizzie waves leaving. On her way out she rubs y/ns arm and whispers something before heading towards the trailers.

i can feel scars eyes glancing up at me every now and again it keeps me from sleeping but i do relax knowing someone is here. So i act like im sleeping and it calms me, and i actually feel less tired just by having my eyes closed.

It was quiet until my stomach betrayed me. It grumbled loud interrupting the peaceful vibe. I mean its my fault i haven't eaten in a while. I can feel the awkward atmosphere as i can sense scarlet looking at me.

'have you eaten?' she asks like such a mum, i mean she is but not my point.

'im not hungry' i lie, i was going grocery shopping later tonight ill survive.

'i didn't ask if you were hungry hun, i asked if you had eaten' i just stay quiet. I sigh and open my eyes looking at her. I really need to get better responses and excuses for this week. she gets up and walks to the fridge looking around a bit before grabbing something and walking to stand in front of me 'here' she says holding out 2 pieces of fairybread cut into triangles and wrapped in cling wrap (glad wrap or whatever you call it ) i look at it than meet her eyes for a second before looking back down to the sandwhich. i sigh and take it sitting up. 

i cross my legs underneath me and unwrap the food. i take a bite and it tastes really good. 

'so whos the friend you made, what are they like' scarlet asks with a raised eyebrow 

'shes great, her name is dahlia like the flower, shes Australian and likes surfing and stuff. dark curly hair, and intriguing blue eyes. she sat next to me in first session and we kept hanging out all day. i got to know alot about her, shes really nice' i smile before pausing 'i hope she doesnt ditch me tomorrow' i frow my eyebrows 

'from what youve told me i dont thinks shes the type' scarlet reassures and i nod. i finish the sandwhich and thank her. 

it was quiet for a while but i could tell scarlet had something on her mind. 'whats up' i ask looking at her with a tilted head 

'oh well, y/n, i was wondering why you never seem to be picked up or anything like that' she asks me kindly almost knowing i dont want to talk about my parents 

'my parents work weird hours sometimes they wont know they have a shift until 30 minutes before so they can never guarantee they can pick me up, and my phone dies quite fast so its also hard to contact me. so we made a compromise that i would just walk. its not that far and i know my way. my parents trust me. so really its nothing scar' i say half lies half truths. she nods. i guess at my fluency at that she believed me. 2 for 2 i think imma stick with the odd shifts excuse 

'okay, well if you ever need someone to pick you up we're here' she tells me i bite my lip and nod. suddenly her phone rings and she excuses herself. now i was left in the room alone i was thinking about dahlia when i had a thought
