Sophia's POV

"How old are you?" Harry asked me.

"18, how old are you?" I asked even though I already knew the answer.

"I'm 19." He replied uncomfortably.

"Okay." Was the only thing that came to my mind to say.

"You're an actress? I don't I've ever seen you in a movie..." He frowned. Should I be offended?

"Yeah well I'm trying to be an actress. What about you?"

"Well I uh... It doesn't really matter." He shrugged uncomfortably.

"Okay. Have you read the scrip yet?"

"No." Harry merely replied looking around the room probably looking for someone to interrupt this awkward conversation.

"I have... Only the beginning though." I continued. We're not going anywhere if we keep with this stupid nonsense talk.

"Okay." Was his turn to say. He was getting on my nerves with the short answers.

"You know we're supposed to get along." I crossed my arms in front of my chest trying to prove a point.

"How long do we have until we star shooting?" He completely ignored my statement.

"One month." I told him. Now that I think about it, it sounds a really short time since we're not getting along at all.

"Humm, that's so long." He rubbed his temples.

"It is not." I chuckled sarcastically.

"Are you even english?" He raised his eyebrows staring at me from head to toe.

"Kind of." I moved my weight from one feet to another.

"What do you mean kind of?" He tilted his head.

"My father's english and my mum's portuguese." I explained.

"And you live here with your father?" He questioned again.

"Yeah." I shrugged.

"Why?" He was annoying me.

"Because he likes to keep me under control like if he doesn't already have cameras everyone around the house and body guards..." I rolled my eyes.

"Body guards? Just to keep you under his wing? What kind of father is that?" He laughed.

"Obviously he's doing something wrong." I said and was surprised when he laughed making myself join him.

"So do you live nearby or..." He looked in my eyes this time, a pure green instead of grey like before.

"Yes, kind of."

"Everything for you is 'kind of', either you live here or not." He pointed out.

"I don't know what you consider near but it's about a 20 minutes drive." I tried not to roll my eyes at him again.

"Do you have a car?" Why so many questions...

"Kind of." I replied jut to annoy him.

"You think you're very smart don't you?" He raised his brows taking a step forward.

"I don't think, I know I am." I mirrored his actions causing the two of us to stand only a few inches away. I watched as his eyes darted to my lips and then back up hiding whatever was he was thinking.

"Obviously." I think it was supposed to be a sarcastic reply but it came out as a whisper from him. His breath invaded my nostrils and something inside my stomach grumbled but it was not from hunger.

"I should go." I concluded stepping away.

"We're supposed to get along..." He quoted Robert's words. "Whatever that means."

"Yeah well you were supposed to be nice but yet..." I gestured to him.

"I am nice." His eyes flashed again with some sort of emotion... hurt? No that couldn't be.

"Not really." I shook my head.

"You don't even know me..." Harry raised his voice slightly.

"When you entered that door you had already made your mind that you wouldn't let me." I said matter of factly.

"No I didn't."

"Whatever." I turned on my heels towards the door. "It's not like I want to anyways."

"Excuse me?" I mentally palmed my forehead, that was supposed to be a thought.

"You heard me." I fired back.

"Why? Because I'm not one of your spoiled little friends?"

"Spoiled little friends?" I gasped.

"Yeah, camera, body guards, you're clearly one of those girls who think they're someone just because their father's rich and suddenly decided she wanted to be an actress so she thinks everyone's supposed to obey them." He raised his voice annoyed.

"You know nothing about my life." Without even acknowledging it I was on his face screaming. "I have cameras and body guards to control me because I'm not even allowed to step out of my room without having every movement controlled and yes I wish I had spoiled little friends as you call it because at least I would have someone instead of spending everyday locked inside because my father's afraid someone will get near me just to get to him so no, you know nothing about my life Harry." I said panting as I watched his blank expression while he merely stared at me. He was clearly not going to say something so I turned around before he could see my tears.

"Wait!" He called behind me. I took a long breath before turning to him again. "How are you supposed to go home now?"

"I'm going to call my father to have someone pick me up." I replied, my voice a little hoarse from the screaming, I'm not used to raise my voice.

"I could drive you?" He suggested rubbing the back of his neck timidly. I wanted to refuse but something about his eyes made me nod before I could even process what I was doing.

"Okay." I say quietly.

"Okay." Harry walked to the door opening it so both of us could go out. "So where do you live exactly?" He questioned when we stepped inside his car.

"Just start driving and I'll give you the directions." I buckled my seat belt.

"Quite demanding aren't you?" I swear I saw a little smile play on his lips.

"Since I can't do it at home might as well use you for that." I teased.

"Not a chance." He shook his head laughing.

The rest of the drive was made in silence only me speaking from time to time to tell him to turn into some road or whatever.

"That's me." I sighed after one of the most awkward 20 minutes drive of my life.

"That's your house?" Harry gasped even though he could only see the giant gates armed with cameras and the top white floor of the house, the only one visible from the road.



"Yeah." I swallowed.

"You didn't tell me how rich you father was."

"It's not really something I like to paster in anyone's face." I shrugged stepping out.

"Okay uh I'll see you..."

"Yeah we should work on this getting along thing." I nodded. I couldn't help but smile a little.

"When are we supposed to be in the studio again?"

"I think they're gonna give us two weeks to get to know each other before we return there and do some tests and everything." I answered.

"So we're on our own now?" He raised his brow.

"Looks like we are." I sighed staring at the window still inside Harry's car.

"Do y---"

"Mayb---"

"You first." I gestured when we tried to speak at the same time.

"Well I was just gonna say maybe we could do something tomorrow?" He suggested.

"I was about to say the same thing."

"You were?" Harry smiled.

"Yeah."

"Tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is okay." I nodded.

"Should I pick you up?" He asked.

"If you don't mind. Can you be here at 2?"

"Sure. I'll see you tomorrow then." He stepped out of the car. I watched completely clueless until he mentioned to open the door for me.

"Oh thank you." I said embarrassed climbing out. I'm not sure he did it because he's a gentleman or simply because he just wants to get rid of me the fastest he can but I could bet on the second.

"Bye Sophia." I confess I'm a bit surprise he remembers my name but somehow it was nice to hear it from his tick british accent. What am I even saying?

"Bye." I said but he was already gone.

I dialed the code on the front gates and patiently waited for the heavy gates to open. When I finally reached the door I dialed another code and got myself in.
What an awkward day! I thought.

"Miss Sophia, I thought it was you." Eve, our maid, stepped onto the hall.

"It's me." I tranquilized her. Who else knows the codes besides me, my father and the people who work on the house? No one.

"How was your day? I couldn't help but look at the monitor when that black car stopped at the front door. Very handsome that boy." She liked her lips. What would her husband and kids say about that...

"That's Harry." I replied taking off my shoes.

"Is he the boy from the movie?" She asked with shining eyes.

"He is." I nodded.

"How is that working so far?"

"I honestly don't know." I replied. I really don't...
