Taking Direction

Holly crawled on all fours over the stage desk toward her fellow actor. Stefan reclined in the leather chair, staring at her with surprised eyes, as he’d been directed to do. When she reached the edge of the desk, she stretched toward him in the most sex-kitten manner she could muster and grabbed hold of his tie.

“Stop,” Xavier’s voice echoed through the theatre. “Stop, that’s still not right.”

Holly collapsed and let the side of her face rest against the furniture’s cool, smooth wood. “What am I doing wrong, now?”

Xavier didn’t answer. Impossible old man. Ever since he’d discovered her last year in that penniless community theatre, he’d been the object of her strongest frustration. He’d approached her after her performance in the summer musical, presented his business card, and had told her he wanted her to work for him on his stage. Stars and hearts filled her vision. The man exuded confidence. That coupled with Sean Connery-type looks had her weak at the knees. But as soon as she’d become enamored, he’d cocked an eyebrow and made a smart-alecky remark about how she might actually display some talent under his direction. Needless to say, with her fiery attitude, she’d taken it the wrong way. It was love and hate ever since.

Holly jumped off the desk and adjusted her blue jean shorts so they weren’t crawling up her ass. She put her hands on her hips, a few blue-black wisps of her sharply bobbed hair brushing against her full, pouting lips.

“You said to be seductive. So that’s what I was doing.”

“No, you weren’t.” His deep, godlike voice rang out from the sea of darkness that was the empty audience. “You were acting like a cheap tramp. We need to see you actually want him. I don’t want to see you acting.”

“Great.”

That last line about not wanting to see her acting had been thrown at her quite a bit lately, and it was getting tiresome. She needed some actual direction, not vagueness, or criticism after criticism. Holding her arms out in desperation, she shrugged.

“I’ve tried a million things, Xavier.”

Stefan let out a gigantic yawn, and Holly turned toward him to shoot him a death glare.

“You know,” she said, “it might help if you were worth seducing.”

“Sorry I’m not your cup of tea, love,” he said, batting pretty eyelashes. She wanted to slap him. “Shall I put on some mood music? Light some candles, perhaps?”

“Nice thought, but no,” Xavier cut in before Holly could provide a sharp rebuke. “It’s after midnight. Let’s call it an evening for now. You worked hard, Stefan, thanks. We’ll pick back up here tomorrow.”

Stefan didn’t have to be asked twice. The blond Australian model-turned-actor swiveled the chair downstage and jumped out of it. He saluted the director. Holly couldn’t tell whether he waved back; Xavier was barely even visible sitting in the back row.

“See you both tomorrow, same time, same channel,” Stefan said, then whistled as he strode away from the makeshift office set and out of the auditorium.
