Part 3 || 21 - Grauman's Chinese Theatre

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Hey, Jamie" I said turning back to the sky. "It's beautiful, innit?" he asked and I nodded. "Very beautiful" I replied smiling widely. "You were quiet today, Y/N, everything okay?" he asked turning his face to me. I nodded still looking at the sky, "Yeah, just bummed about leaving Hawaii, I had a lot of fun here, just... no care in the world, peace, beautiful people, the food, everything"

"Yeah, even if I spent like 5 days here, I love it" James said looking back at the sky. We made conversation for an hour, clicking pictures of each other, together, some stories for the 'Gram, laughing in the sand. We all left the next morning for LA. We booked the same airline that works with my dad, so I booked two private suites for us. As we were walking out of the airport, I saw someone holding a placard with my name on it. The person had a driver's uniform on, his cap was covering his face, plus he was looking down, so I didn't know who it was.

"Service for Y/N" the man said and I dropped my bag and ran to him. "Daddy!" I said hugging him. "Hi, pumpkin" he said happily. It had been ages since I saw him. Everyone gathered around us, "I have cars waiting for you all outside, ready to take you to your hotel, but, you, young lady, are spending the rest of the day with me" he said sternly yet softly.

It was a sunny day, I was waiting for Tom in the limo that was going to take us to the theatre for the premiere. Tom had gone back to his buzzed haircut. I looked out the window at the gate of the hotel waiting for Tom to come quickly. "Sorry, sorry, I'm late, Shorty" Tom said closing the door and pecking my cheek.

"That's fine" I said and he looked at me. "You look breathtaking, darling" he said making me smile. This once, we weren't matching our outfits. I wore a black dress that went below my knee with black heels.

We arrived the theatre to be greeted by thousands of fans, camera flashes and cheering

We arrived the theatre to be greeted by thousands of fans, camera flashes and cheering. Tom came and opened my door and held out a hand. I happily took it and got off the car. He adjusted my dress like he always did and we went to sign some autographs.

"Y/N - You look lovely!"

"Can you give me an autograph?"

"I love you!"

"You look hot in the pictures with Tom!"

I heard a few more compliments here and there but I got stuck on the last one. It's like it was then when I realized that the pictures were published and the movie - oh god - the movie, our sex scenes are out for the world to see it as well. Tom and I clicked a few pictures together and just as we were about to enter after the interviews, I saw Rob.

What is he doing here?

He was in a blue shirt with denim pants, he didn't look ready at all for the red carpet. He was sweating for one and for two he had sunglasses on. Oh Jesus. I went over to him to talk. "Rob!" I said and he pulled me in for a hug. "Babycakes!" he said hugging me. "What are you doing here?" I asked as the photographer yelled, "Smile, please!"

"I crashed the premiere" Rob said happily. I looked up at him and smiled. He was nothing like his character. We clicked a few pictures and headed in. The whole time I was gripping the arm rest of the seat waiting anxiously for our scene, to see how they filmed, how much of my body is seen, what song they added, how they edited it, just everything.

Finally, the scene came, I gripped the arm rest so tight that my knuckles turned white. (Oh, that rhymed!) I looked at everyone's expression around me, no one was blinking but like they were stuck on the screen. They did a great job with the editing, they took some shots of us, totally dark, then some of our hand gestures, some back arching moments, some kissing scenes. I can tell just because of the editing, the scene was perfect.

Finally the movie came to an end and the theatre erupted in applause and chatter. I smiled widely when people started congratulating me for my performance. "Knew you could do it" David, our producer - David said hugging me. "All thanks to you, David" I said politely.

••••••

The premiere in UK was amazing as well. As our pact, Tom and I went together as well. After the premiere, we went back to the mansion for the after-party. I was talking to Tom when David came to us. "Y/N, did you decide to stay or leave, cause if you leave, we need to alter the scenes and then film in bits and pieces when you're available" he said making Tom furrow his eyebrows.

"Leaving? Leaving where?" Tom asked and I shook my head. "I asked my uni if they could let me continue next year, it was a lot of work, but they agreed, so I am going to be here for Half-blood Prince, but, but I won't be here for Deathly Hallows 1, so you better work around that" I said and he happily walked away.

"What's with that?" Tom asked as we picked up another glass of champagne. "Well, remember how my course is a sandwich-course..." he shook his head making me roll my eyes, "Erm, long story short, my four year course is like a mixture of work and study. So, first year was here in UK, second was either here or anywhere else in the world, so I obviously chose here, now the third year is non-negotiable, I have to work for a company abroad" I sipped my champagne, "Since HBP needs me, I asked the board to let me continue next year, so that's why I'll be flying to California next year, after filming. And erm, the fourth year is here in UH, so I'll be here for Deathly Hallows 2" I explained and he nodded quietly.

"Aww, I'll miss you, Shorty. You better not decide to move there" he warned making me laugh. Little did I know, it was going to happen in few years.

Away from Tom.
