Chapter 13

The House About You? shoot wasn’t anything to write home about. Everything went according to plan, even the weather, which remained utterly gorgeous throughout, and we finished up in two days instead of three. Agency left us alone, mostly, as they were hung over the first day, which kept them out of our bonding on the second. Will and the blonde seemed on warm terms, but not in that conspiratorial way reserved for lovers. Or maybe that was just me hoping. CeeCee, though she never got laid, worked out beautifully as a PA, managing to hold her tongue when Holly barked at her to make sure gawkers weren’t parking too close to the shot. She stepped up to the job and scowled fiercely at anyone who slowed down as if to park. One look at CeeCee and without fail they quickly drove away.

We were shooting the last shot and my mind was drifting pleasantly onto thoughts of gorgeous Will Torrance when my walkie-talkie crackled to life. CeeCee’s voice ordered, “Ginny, go to two.” I immediately punched onto channel two—the channel reserved for production assistants, not directors or grips—and said, “Go for Ginny.”

CeeCee revealed, “There’s someone here who claims to know Will. A woman. Arrived in a black town car. Says her name is Rhianna.”

“Will’s just finishing. I’ll tell him.”

“Looks like a possible girlfriend.”

“Got it.”

I clicked off, wondering about the new arrival. Deciding to learn more before I interrupted Will, I turned to Holly, who grimaced when I told her the news.

“Absolute pain in the ass,” she said.

“Girlfriend?”

She nodded. So much for my pleasant thoughts. Of course he had a girlfriend. They all had girlfriends. And/or wives.

“Tell her to meet him at the hotel. He’s busy,” Holly said. “I’ll give him the word that she’s here.”

“Happy to do it.”

Holly gave me a faint smile. “You have no idea.”

It sounded as if Rhianna might be even worse than the usual insecure, “it’s all about me” women who seemed to bond like industrial glue to the directors. I was glad Holly made the executive decision to book her off-set. If Rhianna didn’t like it, she couldn’t go over someone’s head and complain since Holly was the producer and therefore top woman on the totem pole. True, Wyatt Productions also had an Executive Producer, but DeAnn stayed in the office and spent most of her time bidding other jobs. She hated dealing with the problems of the shoot and anyone who had the bad judgment to try and go over Holly’s head—or whatever producer was on the job at the time—learned tout suite that DeAnn would have none of it.

From the distance of the production trailer I watched Holly diffidently wait for a moment with Will as he peered through the camera, setting the shot. Red Rock was directly behind, eye-hurtingly bright against a blue, blue sky. The painted house with its actor/painter was a light, lemony yellow color. It was startling to look at. While I watched, the first AD took the shot with Will looking on.
