Loving A Friend (A Daniel Radcliffe Love Story) Part 17
RECAP: The second the two of you walked through the door the atmosphere of cameras , extras everywhere, costumes, and an unbelievable amount of hairspray hit you.
"Daniel! Great you're finally here." a red headed woman with a clip board in her hand and head set on said approaching the two of you.
"Daniel's here." she spoke into the mouthpiece.
"Ok. we need to get you into make-up and costume." she said.
"Right." said Dan.
"And you? Are you the extra???" she asked you.
Do you remember??
Yea yea...sure !
No...sorry! i don't remember.
"Ugh..." You looked at Dan as you tried to think."I uh.."
Dan sorta shrugged his shoulders and nodded subtly, wearing an amused expression.
"Uhh..."
"Well are you?" The woman asked somewhat impatiently.
"Yes she is." Dan answered for you. "I am?" You said low enough for only him to hear.
He nodded a little.
"I mean--I am." You nodded.
She gave you a strange look."Ooookaaaayyyy then...Well you're late. Come on. To the dressing rooms." she said giving you a push to the direction opposite of where Daniel stood. He waved with a smile and then walked off in the other direction.
She took you to the dressing room, which was filled with other girls of different ages dressed in black robes, which you assumed were supposed to be the Hogwarts costumes. The woman sat you down in front of a mirror where another woman who was fixing some other girls hair a second ago walked over and began filling her hands through your hair. Awkward much?
A red haired lady holding a clip board approached me soon afterwards.. "Hello. I'm Sara Lawdton( I made that name up) You must be the missing extra Lana."
You nodded just going with the flow.*Yea. Sure....of course.*
"Great! Can we get make-up on this extra." She hollered over the chit chatting of the other girls, "Okay, remember you'll be sitting on the third table from the left wall. Once the director yell 'Change scene' you get up and walk out of the set doors and brush past our Harry, Ronald, and Hermione. Got it? "she instructed you as another woman with a chic black bob- cut started to tamper with blush beads and apply eyeliner, mascara, dark eye shadow. After all your make-up was applied and your hair was set up in a weird hairdo...it sorta looked like
You were rushed into an empty dressing room stall and handed a skirt, blouse, a blue
rimmed vest, and a black robe with a blue crest that had a bird and read 'Ravenclaw' on it.
You quickly got dressed and looked at your reflection in the mirror.
Strangely you weren’t nervous at all. You figured, though, that the nerves would eventually
catch up and that you should calm yourself now before they did. You sighed and stepped
out.
Remember what you’re all supposed to do please. We need to form four lines. Everyone
with the Slytherin uniform please stand here." She instructed. It was the same woman who
had the clipboard before.
She did the same for every house group until there were four lines. All of the extras walked
onto the set together in the lines and sat in the assigned tables.
*Wow!* you thought *I'm actually on a real movie set!*
changed your clothes, fixed your hair into a tight gelled pony tail, but left some of the make-
up. Just as you picked up your bag, you heard the ringtone of your cell phone.You answered.
TELEPHONE CONVO
You: "The extras dressing rooms."
Dan: "Can you meet me by the door? I want to introduce you to some people."
You: "Yes. Sure. Just give me a sec."
Dan: "Okay. Bye"
You: "Bye."
past the obstacle course of girls in the room. Before you could reach the door of course a
few girls approached you.
"Yes! That's the chick! She's the one who came in with Daniel." sneered one blonde to girl
you assumed friend.
You looked at her like she was crazy. They were blocking your way to the door so you
couldn't get out.
"I don't think so!” said the same platinum blonde girl. She was a tall slender girl, with a
hideously crooked nose that took up a majority of her face.
“What?”
“You heard her. Listen, you whore better back of Daniel! Now!" threatened one of the
other thick and curly haired blonde. This one was less ugly, but her personality seriously
stunk.
pathetic. You weren’t usually one to have a short temper…but they didn’t need to know
that… You were going to show them
"Yeah right! Listen losers, I don't want to start any trouble or anything but don't mess with
me and try to talk trash when you don't know shit about me. Now if you brats don't mind,
well actually even if you do, I'd like for you to move out of my way." You said through your
teeth.
Once you were out you saw Daniel standing there waiting for you, looking adorable in his
Harry Potter costume.
"Daniel …Daniel …Daniel." you smiled walking over to him.
He turned around and looked at you with a grin lighting up his face. "Deena, Deena,
Deena.” He mocked adopting a tone identical to yours. “Did you have fun on the set?""Yes! Besides almost being 'jumped' by some crazy blonde extras just a second ago
because they thought I was your girlfriend, it was very fun day." You told him.
Then you silently cursed yourself for using the girlfriend reference. Embarrassing much?
He looked shocked at first then blushed; it turned into a full hearted grin. "I'd be scared if I
were them." he laughed. "Come on. I want to introduce you to the gang."the set, down a hall and to the room that had a sign that read Rupert on it. He opened the
door without even knocking and walked in. You followed close behind.
It was about the same size as the entire women extra's dressing room but there was more
free space. The walls were covered with posters with bands that looked vaguely familiar
at first glance and lots of different Harry Potter gadgets and awards and random letters
There was a couch on the back and there sat the familiar looking Red-head, a boy with
bleach blonde hair and Emma. (You had met her during the scene)
having lunch because there were 5 boxes of pizza and redhead's mouth was full.
"Fey Pfbteeda! Bptfutths ub?" the redhead said waving a pizza crust filled hand in the air.
"Eh?" you said confused, a red rising in your face.
Pleasure to meet you." He said taking your hand with his gently and kissing it before letting
it go.
"Yeah, you too.” You blushed as he sat back down. You glanced over at Daniel and
noticed he was glaring daggers at Tom. *Hmm....Jealous are we??*
The redhead finally swallowed down what was in his mouth and spoke up. "Sorry. Where
are my manners?" he smiled.
"Somewhere with your brain I presume." laughed Emma.
"Ha-ha! So very funny Emma. I'm Rupert.” Rupert looked at her bemused, “Anyway
Deena, please, take my seat. Help yourself to pizza. There's pineapple, pepperoni, sausage,
cheese, and my personal favorite mushroom and anchovy surprise!!"
"It's not really much of a surprise...it's just all disgustingness...that's no surprise there when
you hear mushrooms and anchovy on the same pizza." she teased.
"Really?" Rupert asked incredulously. You nodded. "Finally somebody around here
shares my common interest in food!" he joked. You all laughed.
you with Rupert and Emma.
down the long hall and over to another the set but the scenery looked different.
Once it was over Daniel walked off the set and headed towards your direction. He waved your way, with the largest grin of life. You smiled and lifted your hand to begin to wave back when out of nowhere appeared Jasmine behind you. She walked up to him smiling just as largely and planted a kiss on him that sent your stomach boiling in disgust. Just Great!
