Three Weeks Later:

I stare back at my reflection in my phone and run my finger along my lower lip. The black car pulls up to the wrap party, already thumping inside of the Jane Hotel. I’ve been questioning my decision not to sleep with Archer Bain ever since it happened, but tonight all bets are off. We’re done shooting and I’m praying that he still feels the same about me as he did that night three weeks ago.

I toss my driver a tip and hop out of the car. My heels click against the pavement as I enter the gorgeous throwback lobby. I wouldn’t be so nervous if Archer hadn’t been acting like it never happened. On set, he’s calm, cool, and professional. It’s quite the change from our practice kiss that first day in his trailer. Part of me wonders if I acted too quickly, like maybe I should’ve just slept with him when I had the chance. But if he isn’t into me now then perhaps he never was.

Besides, I just finished wrapping the pilot of what’s sure to be a wildly successful show. My star is on the rise, and there’s a cold glass of champagne at the bar with my name on it. Having Archer Bain in my bed tonight would be the cherry on top of the sundae.

The ornate fireplace blazes as I enter the party room. Most of the crew, producers, and cast sit on the velvet couches lining the rich, red room. There’s a step and repeat set up with a backdrop near the far wall. I run a hand through my long, wavy hair, kicking myself for not splurging on a new dress. Until the check clears, a purchase like that would be beyond my means.

Applause fills the air as people catch sight of me. At first I think they’re mistaken. I look behind me and no one is there, so it must be for me. Heat rushes to my cheeks and I’m suddenly not sure what to do with my hands. I give a grateful nod, wishing that drink was already in my grip.

The crowd parts as I make my way to the bar. My smile slides right off of my face. Archer sits at the bar with a tall, gorgeous brunette with legs for days. She twirls her hair around her finger, hanging on his every word. He must sense my gaze because he halts his conversation and looks over at me. I don’t give him a chance to react. My feet move in the opposite direction, and I find myself in the luxurious ladies lounge.

I lean over the sink and take a deep breath. What did I expect him to wait for me? How naive. I start to bite my bottom lip, but remember my lipstick. Catching my eyes in the mirror, it all hits me. This is my party, too. I deserve to celebrate this accomplishment. It’s a dream not many actresses have the chance to live out. I point at my reflection.
