《Nothing Lasts Forever》11. Fueding Frenemies

"I heard what happened, I'm so sorry" Gigi's voice meets my ears
I turn to face the director only to notice that she is holding a very short nightgown in one of her hands.
"Hunter was fucking a girl on the couch in my trailer!" I exclaim, not caring that I am calling her by her real name
"What sane thinking person does that shit?!" I continue
I am livid.
Originally I was going to try to mend ties with the actress so that we could have a drama free work environment.
Now all I want to do is chew her fucking head off and throw it in a wood chipper.
"I hate to do this to you, but the first scene you're doing today is with her" Gigi informs me
I bring one of my hands up to rest on my forehead, already feeling the urge to scream at the top of my lungs in anger.
"Which scene?" I finally ask when I am able to calm myself down a considerable amount
"Page eighty-eight" she says
I wrack through my brain to figure out which scene she is talking about.
"The one where I have to jump off of the ledge of a truck onto her back?" I question as I remove my hand from my face
Gig nods her head.
Great! This is absolutely fantastic!
Gigi goes to add something but there is a knock on the door to Wesley's trailer which we are all huddled up in.
Oh right! I found out that his name is 'Wesley Williams', granted it was printed on his trailer door.
Gigi is the one who swings the door open.
"We found an empty trailer next to this one. Does Delaney want it?" I hear a crew member ask
Gigi glances over at me.
"How about you ask Delaney yourself?" Gigi pushes the door wider so that the crew member can see me
I notice her silently fan girl momentarily before clearing her throat.
I do not give her the chance to ask the question again as I nod my head.
"I will accept the empty trailer" I assure her
Albeit me being pissed as hell at Hunter, I have a job to do.
It is the first day of said job and have already caused an enormous ruckus.
"Gr-Great! I'll show you to it!" The crew member offers
Wesley gives me a sad smile as I exit his trailer, Gigi passing the short night gown to me so that I can get changed into it as soon as possible.
Dear god, give me the strength not to strangle my female costar.
-
I feel...way too exposed.
I am now dressed in the short, white nightgown that Gigi handed me.
The nightgown is being held up by two thin straps that are draped over my shoulders.
That is not even the part that I am the most fearful about.
Due to the nightgown stopping a few inches underneath my butt I am afraid that when I climb onto Hunter's back my underwear will be exposed.
Ugh! That would be very embarrassing.
I hear a knock on the door to my new trailer.
"Gigi wants you on set" I hear a crew member say from the other side of the door
I nod my head.
This is it.
-
As the crew member and I approach the set my jaw drops.
How did they get a Jeep in here?!
"Gigi wants you in the passenger seat" the crew member motions towards the vehicle
I do not argue as I make my way towards the Jeep. Once I reach said Jeep I open the door and climb into it, shutting said door behind me.

Just as I go to get comfortable in my seat I feel someone's presence next to me in the driver's seat.
I cannot help but get slightly spooked by this, turning to face the mystery person.
You can imagine my horror when my eyes land on Hunter who's eyes are already on my exposed legs.
Ew! What the hell?!
I notice that she is wearing a much warmer outfit than I am.
She is wearing a collared, long sleeved, white dress that loosely flairs out around her waist and stops around the middle of her thighs. In order to make the dress more form fitting they put an artistic corset over the dress, giving it a more modernized look.
Her hair raven black hair is braided back into a french braid that lays down flat against the back of her dress.
"Are you looking for something?" She finally speaks up
I have to be honest, her voice surprises me.
I have not heard her voice in person in so long...it feels odd.
I furrow my eyebrows as her question registers in my brain.
"Excuse me?" I ask, not hiding my astonishment
The black haired girl raises an eyebrow at me, a bored look on her face.
"I asked if you were looking for something," she repeats with a half bored, half annoyed tone of voice
"Do you need me to spell it out for you?" She questions
I glare a cold glare at this girl.
"What is your fucking problem with me?" I do not hold back
"First I get to set only to find you balls deep inside of an extra on the couch in my trailer!" I practically yell at her
She rolls her eyes at me.
"Relax, nothing got on the furniture. I made sure of that" she whispers the last part
I feel bile rise up my throat at her words.
"You are a pig and a half" I scoff
I assume that this ignites something within the actress.
She turns in her seat so that she is now facing me.
As she does this I notice an angered look on her face.
"What did you just fucking call me?" She practically growls out
I lean closer to her so that our faces are mere inches away from each other, my brown eyes staring straight into her brown ones.
"I called you a pig and a half," I repeat myself
"What? You need me to spell it out for you?" I repeat her words from earlier
I can practically see flames of fire in her eyes at the words that leave my mouth.
"Oh! That's rich coming from the girl who spit milk on me!" She angrily fires back
I ball my hands into fists so that I do not use them to strangle her.
I am trying so freaking hard not to strangle her.
"Says the asshole who poured hers over my fucking head after I apologized!" I exclaim
The two of us are cut off by the sound of an alarm going off.
I turn to look out the windshield only to notice that everyone on set is staring at us.
All of which have mixed emotions.
Some of intrigue, some of fear.
"Okay!" Gigi yells into a megaphone
When did she get a megaphone?
"When I yell 'action' I want you two to act from the part where Elaine is scared to jump on Genevieve's back. Got that?!" She yells with an annoyed voice
Hunter and I silently nod our heads.

"Amazing! Places everyone!"
Hunter and I are silent...well...we were silent shall I say.
"Can you stop moving around so much?!" Hunter snaps
"God! You move around more than a child on sugar." She groans with annoyance
I turn to glare at the black haired girl.
"If you do not like it then you can leave for all I care!" I snap back
If she wants to be a bitch then fine. I can be a better bitch than she will ever be.
I shift in my seat again, my leg becoming itchy.
Great!
"Quiet on set!" I hear Gigi yell out.
I lean down to scratch the itchy patch on my leg.
"Delaney!" Hunter yells with annoyance
I glare at the raven haired girl.
Ugh! I am tired of her godforsaken attitude!
"What Hunter?!" I yell back
I am slightly taken aback when Hunter's face suddenly softens a bit at me.
I raise a skeptical eyebrow at her.
What is going through her head?
Just when I think that she is going to yell at me again I am proved wrong when her facial expression contorts into a blank one.
"Don't call me that" Is all she utters.
Before either of us can say anything else Gigi calls out "action".
Hunter climbs out of the Jeep and shuts the door behind her. She makes her way around the front of said Jeep so that she can open my door.
I close my eyes and take a deep breath, pushing all of my hatred for the raven haired girl to the back of my head and tapping into the character of Elaine.
I open my eyes just as Hunter opens my car door. She halfheartedly helps me climb out onto the step up bar.
Two large cameras surround us while the one that Gigi is at remains at a standstill.
"Are you sure?" I shakily ask her as I balance myself on top of the thin bar on the right side of the car
Hunter chuckles at me and glances over her shoulder to look at me.
"Yes!" She continues to laugh
I am unable to stop the copious amount of butterflies from flying around in my lower belly at the sound of her laughter.
She has such a nice laugh. I wonder why she rarely uses it.
I go to jump off of said bar only to hesitate and lean back against the silent vehicle.
"This is dangerous!" I exclaim
The raven haired girl turns around so that she is now facing me with crossed arms.
"More dangerous than risking the possibility of stepping on a broken piece of glass?" She deadpans, motioning towards my bare feet
I roll my eyes at her sarcasm.
"What if I fall?" I stress
The raven haired girl just raises an eyebrow at me, another laugh bubbling past her lips.
"Elaine, you're jumping half an inch down onto my back," she deadpans again
"Scratch that, you're literally just wrapping your legs around my waist" she states
My character continues to panic.
The raven haired girl notices this and sighs, placing her hands on my hips to stabilize herself on the rocky path.
My heart begins to speed up in my chest at the intense look in her eyes.
If someone were to look at us now and have no clue of our feud then they would probably think that we were actually...friends...or something along those lines.
"Let's make a deal" she suggests
It is my turn to raise an eyebrow at the brown eyed girl.
"What kind of deal?" I immediately ask
She smirks with heavy amusement shining in her eyes.
"If I drop you then I promise to give you half my plate of leftovers" she says, removing one of her hands from my hip and holding it out in front of me
I inevitably smile at this, her smile striking me right in the heart.
"Change 'half of your leftovers', to 'all of your leftovers' and we have a deal" I smirk back
The raven haired girl chuckles at my negotiation, obviously finding humor in it.
"Are you really negotiating with me right now?" She asks rhetorically
I continue to smirk as I carefully lean my face down a bit so that there is only an inch of space in between them.
As I slowly ease closer towards Hunter's face I notice that her eyes that were once staring into mine have shifted down.
She appears to be either staring at my lips or my chin.
"That is not an agreement or a disagreement, Miss James" I tease her in a small whisper
A really cute childlike laugh bubbles up her throat and through her soft looking lips.
Oh my god! Focus Delaney.
"I agree with your terms, Miss Beckham" the brunette eventually responds back, her tone as teasing as mine
I smile at her, bringing my hand up to firmly shake hers.
She waits until I completely pull away from her to remove her hand from my hip and turn around again, her back facing me.
I hesitate but inevitably begin to climb onto her back.
I place my hands on her shoulders before bringing one of my legs up to rest against her hip.
The raven haired girl helps me by grabbing my lower thigh and holding it against her side with an iron grasp.
This gives me the confidence to push off with my other foot and bring it towards her other hip.
I tighten my grasp on her shoulders when I feel my body slipping down, but this does not last long as I feel her free hand shoot out to rest on my unoccupied lower thigh.
Surprisingly I do not feel the nightgown slip up over my butt which I am grateful for.
Knowing this information allows me to relax against Hunter's back.
A shocked squeal leaves my lips as she squats before suddenly using her arm muscles to pull me further up her back.
I tighten my arms around her shoulders, resting my head in the crook of my neck.
Due to my nose being so close to her neck her scent wafts into my nose.
For a person who just had sex she oddly smells like a tray of cinnamon rolls.
This leads me to believe that she either sweats cinnamon sugar or that she took a shower and used a cinnamon roll smelling product.
I notice that Hunter also switched her hand position, her hands are now cupped under my lower thighs instead of resting on the side of them.
"I got you" she chuckles with an assuring tone as she stands to her full height
The brunette uses her foot to close the passenger door to her car before walking us towards the other side of the set.
Hunter barely makes it four feet away from the car when Gigi's voice echoes throughout the quiet set.
"And...cut!" Gigi calls out
A bell goes off a few seconds after she says this.
Almost as if a switch flips inside of Hunter's head she removes her hands from my legs, pushing me off of her back.
I land back first on the rocky terrain of the set, the rocks digging into my back due to how hard I landed on them.
"What the hell Hunt- McKenna?!" I yell out, remembering that she does not want me to call her by her real name anymore
The raven haired girl turns to face me only to begin hysterically laughing at me.
I notice Wesley rush up onto the set to help me up.
"Are you okay?" He asks me as he dusts off the dirt that got on the light colored nightgown
I ignore this as I glare at the girl who has since calmed down...mostly.
"I hope you rot in the deep, dark pits of hell" I tell her honestly before making my way off the set
As I climb down the wooden stairs I hear her reply something along the lines of 'you first'.
