I swallow the lump in my throat. “Yeah, I think he has two more years on the actual contract.”
“You should make an addendum to it or something, no guy like’s being told he can’t date even if Sookie’s sometimes more afraid of girls than the rest of us.”
Yeah, real afraid. I think back on the way he maneuvered me, kissed me, and had no hesitation in getting me naked. “I’ll ask management when the show stops filming.”
Rae pats me on the shoulder and yawns again. “Go get some rest, wait our call times in two hours. You did sleep a bit, right?”
No. I was naked with one of your best friends. “Sort of.”
“Cool, see you on set.”
He walks by me and grabs a bottle of water from the fridge. I finally exhale and make it back to my room. When I check my phone, I realize sleep isn’t going to happen plus now my bed smells like Sookie, he’s always wearing Sauvage by Dior which means he it smells like a spicy bergamot and vanilla on my sheets.
Maybe I’ll just buy a bottle so I can spray it on everything, actually no, that’s a horrible idea because then people will smell him on me and it would look suspicious, stupid that I can’t even spray cologne on anything.
I can’t hold his hand in public.
He legally isn’t even supposed to date.
I can’t offer him support that seems out of line in what I do for the other guys.
And he’s right it’s a huge conflict of interest on top of me being older and wow the more things I list the more anxious I get.
I ignore the bad feeling in my gut and quickly change take a shower, put my hair up in a tight bun, and throw on a pair of loose fitting khaki pants, a white tucked in shirt, and grab my black Gucci belt, I figure I can get away with a more casual look and pair my green Mage loafers, by the time I grab my phone I already have three missed calls from production, and four text messages from Sookie.
SK
Jay’s worried about us sneaking around and told me I smelled like sex.
I quickly tap back.
Me
You smelled incredible and I was just toying with the idea of spraying your cologne all over my bed then realized that I’d be walking around set smelling like you.
SK
Would that be so bad?
Me
Pretty sure that Rae would notice.
SK
Yet he failed to notice the smell of sex and the way that your hair was all messy when he ran into you this morning, he told me you seemed a bit frazzled and apparently is an advocate of me not having a dating clause in my contract.
I start walking out the door while texting him.
Me
Yes, I’m sure he’ll be positively thrilled to find out I took out the clause and fought with management all so I can get into your pants.
SK
I think it’s a fantastic reason.
I nearly run into Sung-Bin as I text back.
“Someone’s smiling a lot this morning.” Someone got laid. He hands me a cup of coffee. “Figured you’d be tired.”
Exhausted. “Thank you.”
He starts walking side by side while I put my phone back into my purse. It’s a chilly morning, and it looks like it’s going to rain.
At least today’s a good challenge day for both groups and for the girls, whoever answers the most questions for the trivia challenge gets to pick who they want to go on a date with, the girls of course get to pick in order of points, they’ll get to once again pick from both groups, fingers crossed Sookie get’s picked by someone else or not picked at all, it would be good for him to get some rest.
I keep walking alongside Producer Sung-Bin and stop at the pool where they have a giant platform with harnesses.
I wince. “That’s taller than I thought.”
“It’s only twelve feet above the water and they won’t be falling in. They’ll be getting dipped with the bungee attached to their harnesses and then brought back up to the platform. He takes a sip of his coffee. He’s dressed more casual today in a black cable-knit sweater and fit jeans. He points at the platform. “Plus, the girls have good reason to want to do well on the challenge, since it gives them power to pick.” He lowers his voice. “Though between you and me some of the questions are easier than others, we made sure to send those ones to Iseul and Dueri so they can continue to fight for Sookie.”
Not the answer I wanted. “I didn’t check ratings this morning.”
“We’re at over twelve percent and climbing domestically and trending in the top five on YouTube.” He smiles at me like it’s the best thing in the world, but I’m miserable.
