《Infinity || Dan Smith》Sixty-Nine.

"So how was your first ever press junket?" Aubrey asks putting her arms around both Dan and Charlie's shoulders.
The couple shrugs as there's not really that much to report back on, other than the surprising difficulty to not answer obvious questions about the film. Though, they have enjoyed doing absolutely fuck all. It just that the interviews get a bit repetitive after a while, no matter all the gifts they're given from different countries.
"I'm just thankful this one didn't cry!" Charlie happily says while she kisses her daughters cheek.
"A few interviews have already got released, the whole team are proud of you both for working around tricky answers. Dan, I'm glad you took our advice to let Charlie be the talker." Dan nods his head.
"You have no idea how I wanted to blurt the entire story out." He awkwardly laughs whilst crossing his arms.
"And that is why we're never going to let you talk during press things." Aubrey then stands back before she makes an awe noise looking at the 'picture perfect' family.
"I'm just gutted that you didn't take the chance to tell the world about little Lace." Looking back about the interviews they had many perfect moments to share that they're parents.
"Why don't you create a Instagram account, Charlie? Not only share some behind the scenes photographs...but your family life?" Charlie shrugs her shoulders back while she considers creating an account. It's not the worst idea that she's ever heard...sooner or later the fans will be everywhere and it'll be hard not being able to hide Lacey.
"We'll think about it..." Dan steps in.
Charlie then rolls her eyes backwards and nods her head in agreement with Dan. There's not much she can do or say on the topic. Aubrey then falsely smiles while she points at Dan, "tomorrow Scarlett Johansson is coming here. You're going be doing a press junket with her while Charlie is doing it with Dean Hollows." Dean Hollows is the other on screen villain, although he isn't really in the movie that much.

"Wicked." Dan says with a smile. He met Scarlett last year while they filmed in LA, they filmed several scenes together. Scarlett's character, Black Widow, helped Liam to control his abilities and learn self defence.
Luckily for the press junket, Dan and Scarlett are both friendly with each other so it won't be awkward.
"Wicked." Charlie mumbles under her breath feeling awkward. At one point in the interviews...she fell in love with Dan again. She told herself that maybe going onto different projects is a good thing, but Dan has been the one who is acting coldly towards her.
Aubrey nods her head while pointing towards the door. "I should let you guys prepare for dinner, do you want me to...take Lacey for a little while? I'm going to go down to the gardens for some air..."
She knows that there's something wrong...
Charlie nods her head, hugging her daughter one last time before gently passing her to Aubrey.
"We'll be in the restaurant under my name..." Charlie gratefully nods her head with a false smile while Aubrey then walks out of the hotel room, shutting the door behind her.
As soon as the lock clicks shut both Charlie and Dan both burst into a sigh at the exact same time. "Maybe next time can you not talk about our personal lives?" Charlie's jaw drops open in shock of Dan acting very bitchy.
"Maybe next time you don't sign up to a movie when we're talking about bringing another child into the world!" Dan then keeps his lips closed. He knows that he fucked up.
"You don't understand what it means for a guy like me to actually receive a personalised script. I really thought nobody else would ever employ me, that Illusion is this one off thing...but it isn't" — Dan hold's back for a second while he thinks of something else to say — "I wasn't thinking, and I'm sorry."

Charlie shakes her head looking at Dan, although she's visibly less angry than what she was beforehand.
"I still want a bigger family with you. I still want Lacey to have a brother and sister, but I also want to work. I'm finally getting over the feeling of actually acting...and it feels good." Charlie stands a meter away from Dan with her arms akimbo.
"You can't juggle kids with acting. It's treacherous, especially a new born. We're lucky right now with Lacey...without you being here I'd be a pretty shitty mum. The only reason why I'm on top of things is because of your help, please say you get where I'm coming from..." Dan doesn't say anything, but Charlie continues anyway.
"You can't balance, a relationship, kids, a fucking band, as well as filming...it's not healthy for any of us. Especially you." Dan then widens his arms whilst looking totally helpless.
"What the fuck am I meant to do?! I've signed a contact now...and..." Charlie shrugs her shoulders back.
"Prove me wrong then." Charlie sternly says while she then points a finger at Dan.
"We'll continue to try for kids, while Lacey is still young, just like we planned. And you can continue to act and sing...we can love each other like a married couple. But you better make sure this works. Okay? I don't want to hear that your overtired. And I won't be left alone mothering two young kids."
"What about your film?" Charlie then shrugs.
"My film isn't going to cause a problem. Since the script is finish and the set is in pre-production we're going to start next month. We'll probably be finished by the Met Gala week!" Both Dan and Charlie has been personally invited, by the host of this year's gala, to the most luxurious event in fashion history.
It's a big deal to Charlie, who's always been a bit of a fashion fanatic. Although her choice of clothes is sometimes...questionable.
"You can look after Lacey on set if you want?"
Charlie's new film is expected to take less than three months film, and it will be out the beginning of next year. It's going to be filming next month until early May, whereas Dakota is trying to bump up the date of the film's release until later next year. It's just so that they can spend more time filming and gathering the cinematography.
"Fine." Dan sternly says.
"Fine." Charlie repeats while the look at each other for a moment or two in complete concentration. However seconds later and they can't keep a straight face, they're not a couple to ever argue...and they don't like not being on the same page.
"Come here..." Dan laughs opening his arms out while Charlie dives into them and embraces her fiancé.

Suddenly, a succubus
The protagonist is a personality like an iceberg: introspective, asocial and completely uninterested in the world and its people beyond necessity. Approaching ships beware! A succubus, on the other hand, lives for desire and interaction, playing mortal hearts like a fiddle. These clearly mix like oil and water, so what do you get when you combine them? This is a story of that kind of emulsion. *** Completed with 62 chapters + epilogue (total of 111k words). *** This novel is bit of an experiment for me. I haven't written fiction before, for one. I also chose a character context that I normally wouldn't, and let the characters drive the story, especially in the beginning. Overall the main focus will be the main character's own story rather than the events of the world. The setting itself uses many familiar fantasy elements, though I plan to add my own twists. Note that I'm not really planning to write any steamy scenes, despite the said character context being literal demons of lust and all. There are of course jokes and scenes that skirt around the subject, but this is not a romance story of any kind. So, is it a mess? Probably. But I hope it's an entertaining one at that.
