Chapter 14

Amy

As an actor, I almost always knew what to feel. Emotions were obvious and came easily, often with scripted words and actions. I knew what to draw on, how to feel, and what to do. But as we left the hospital, I was at a loss.

We had given our statements to the police a hundred times. That Sarah called us, upset, and we had come right over, only to find this scene and a frightened Sarah. As long as the hospital didn’t have security cameras in that room to check, it seemed that we would get away with our story.

“Do you really think that Thomas De Ritter will hand Isabelle over to the authorities?” I asked.

Liam shook his head. “He will hand her body over to the police. The Shields will not let her live.”

I drew in a deep breath as we walked away to the car. I hated to leave Sarah, but it had to be done. If we stayed and whispered to her any longer, it would have looked suspicious.

“What are you going to tell Connor?”

“The truth,” he replied, getting in the car, and looking at the clock as it turned on. “Sites is on in half an hour.”

“Oh my God, I almost forgot.” I buried my head in my face. “I don’t know if I can watch it.”

“Amy.” He took my hand as we drove. “You need something to take your mind off today.”

I glanced at him. He was so handsome, muscular forearms bared as he drove.

“Liam… I’m sorry that we fought.”

He let out a huge breath, nodding. “I’m sorry too, Amy. I never should have said those things.”

“All couples fight. Probably about different things, but they do fight.” I offered him a small smile. “We’ll be ok.”

“I hope so.” He grinned at me. “Otherwise, I’ll have no Meg Giry for the show.”

I smacked him. “That’s all you think about?’

“And other things,” he replied.

Just then, my cell phone rang. Looking at the caller ID, I furrowed my brow. “I don’t know who this is. Wait,” I said, pressing talk. “Hello?”

“Yes, can I speak to Amy?”

“This is Amy,” I replied.

“Amy, this is Steven Caf, I’m the head of casting for Ranger.”

“Yes?” My voice must have gone up about three octaves.

“Amy, we’d love to have you out to play Cassandra Winters. She’s a reoccurring character and right now has a seven episode arc with a strong possibility of extension. The show films here in the city, and we’d probably need you about three days a week.”

I made a noise that I didn’t even recognize, somewhere between a squawk and a screech. Liam gave me a funny look as a thousand questions went through my head, as I tried to figure out what to ask him. The first thing that came to mind was my school schedule.

“Um… would… mornings, five days a week work for you?” I asked. “I mean, I’m in school, but I’m potentially free every morning,” I said, even though it meant that I would be killing myself with my independent study.
