Few weeks into July and the hot Texas weather is already getting to me, Thankfully the cool breeze coming out of my air conditioner in my living room has been keeping calm, along with my ever so lovely boyfriend who's been staying with me the last few days keeping me company before we both part ways.

While David's busy in the shower I'm busy in room figuring out what to pack for my last raw until I come back from Hawaii. Never in a million years I thought I'd get the opportunity to be a guest star on the hit Tv Show Baywatch.

The show I use casually watch, sure the slow motion running was cheesy but overall the shows pretty good and I'm going to be on its 10th season which starts filming on Wednesday.

"Babe, where's your blow dryer my hair's soaked." David Said, from the bathroom.

"Um I think it's somewhere in my room, come look for it I'm busy." I Replied, as I stared into my suitcase.

Footsteps are heard as David was entering my room, with a towel draped around his waist. He looks around and sees the room is a little messy due to
my clothes being everywhere.

"Whoa I know your leaving for work but I don't think you should be packing so much clothes." David Said

"David I'm not just going to work I'm leaving for Hawaii." I Mentioned

"Wait a Hawaii, since when?" David Said, furrowing his brows.

I looked to him as he had that dumb confused look on his face, I shook my head at him.

"Since my boss and my agent offered me this last week. Remember they called me that day I was out in L.A with you?" I Pointed out

"Oh right, right babe you see I was drunk that night, from partying with the guys I forgot..I'm sorry." David Said, he cupped my cheeks with his wet hands.

"No, no, no it's okay you were really drunk that night anyways of course you wouldn't remember. But yes I am going to Hawaii." I Said

"Well for how long?" David Asked

"I'll be there for five days no biggie, I leave on Tuesday." I Shrugged, tossing a few of my socks
into the luggage.

"Do you even have acting experience?" David Asked, intrigued.

"I say my 7th grade middle school production of Oklahoma counts as experience." I Said, while reminiscing.

"Wait you were in a play about Oklahoma?" David Said

"Yeah we wanted to grease but the school denied it. Plus it was for extra credit though and it was kinda fun, also I play a character every single Monday night so I think I'm qualified." I Said, confidently.

"Okay then if you say your qualified then your qualified. Now that I'm sober and I'll definitely remember this, you wanna tell me about the part
you got." David Said, sitting down on the edge of the bed.

"I'm glad you asked because I actually like the character they wrote," I picked up the script, "Her names Laurie Harris, she's a troubled and mentally disturbed girl, and old friend of one of the lifeguard his name is J.D aka Jack Darius. He's my love Interest for the two episodes I'm apart of." I Said, skimming through the script.

"So that means your going to end up kissing the guy huh?" David Questioned, as I chuckled a bit.

"Well yeah of course I am," I glanced over at him and his smiled kinda faded, "Oh Dave don't tell me you're getting jealous."

"Damn right I am..the thought of another guy kissing you, just don't sit right with me." David Admitted

I raised a brow and a smirk appeared on my face, then moved towards him. "David, there's no need to be jealous because the kiss won't mean a thing. What have you never not kissed anyone and not meant it?"

"Well yeah, I've kissed a few fans before-" I gave him a look, crossing my arms, "But it didn't mean anything to me for them maybe, you see my point." David Said

"Okay, I think your overreacting I'm just going to shoot two episodes for a show and that's all." I Said, placing my hands on his shoulders.

"Fine," David huffed, "I hope you have a great time out there, just don't have too much fun without me."

"Hmm my first time getting a chance to film on one of the most popular show's in the world, which is in beautiful state of Hawaii, sure I'll try me best." I Said, as I leaned down and kissed him.

"I'm gonna miss these lips of yours." David Said, as he kissed me back as I smiled.

"Don't worry they'll be back and all yours when I'm finished with Baywatch, but first I've gotta get to work first. Speaking of your still dropping me off right?" I Said

"Yeah, but I can't leave with damp hair...now where's your blow dryer?" David Asked

I placed my hands on my hip then looked over his shoulder as I noticed something.

"Lift up that pile of clothes right there behind you." I Said, pointing behind him.

He leaned back and lifted the clothes up, and there it was my red blow dryer.

"See there ya happy now get out my way, plus I still have to pack up." I Sighed

"Ah good luck with that." David Said, as he kissed my forehead then walked out the bedroom.

"Ah there's my favorite bikini," I picked up my red and white triangle top with matching bottoms, "I'll definitely be wearing this on the beach out there." I Said, with a smirk.

This Wednesday morning and the day has come as I'm sitting here on my flight to Hawaii, while I'm stretching from the nap I woke up from I couldn't help but wince and groan as my body is so sore from last Monday.

At Raw Vince his creative team pitched an idea to get me off television so I can go film. The idea consisted of me getting attacked backstage before my scheduled title match with Ivory.

While I was walking towards the ring, Luna Vachon jumped me from behind and slammed me hard against a wall, then proceeded to smash a crate top onto my arm which did in fact hurt but not to bad.

"Alright passengers our flight shall be landing in 2 minutes, please fasten your seatbelts." The pilot said, into the intercom.

I turned and looked out towards my window, and I couldn't help but stare in awe at how beautiful Hawaii looked from a far. Definitely couldn't wait to land and explore whenever I get the chance.

Once the flight landed safely I left the gate, then made my way through baggage claim retrieving my luggage. Then met with my personal driver who drove me over to the Hilton hotel I'm staying at in Honolulu.

I entered my hotel room which was very nice thanks to the producers of the show. As I sat my luggage down on my bed, the phone near my bed began to ring. I sat down and quickly answered it.

"Hello." I Said

"Hey, Sonya it's me Michael Berk, we spoke on the phone last week."

"Yes Michael I remember you how could I, your the one who offered me the role which I'd like to say thank you again for giving me this opportunity." I Said, with a smile.

"The perks of being a producer it come with the job of making dreams come true. Now that your settled in, I just wanted to remind you about that table read." Michael Berk Said

"Ah yes I remember my agent spoke to me about this." I Replied

"Good but I'd just like to remind you that the table reads are to get to know your co stars and learn your lines, since for some this is their first role in a show as well. And for the writers to see if the script is good enough to be shot over the next few months." Michael Berk Mentioned

"Ah okay I've got it, so what time is the table read?"
I Asked

"3:30 and it's over at the Hawaii film studio." Michael Berk Said

"Gotcha, great I'll see you then." I Said

"Alright now, bye." Michael Berk Said, then we both hung up at the same time.

An hour passed after getting settled in then drove my rental car over to the studio. As I showed up on time even though I was nervous as hell, hoping these people would like me.

Thankfully the entire cast and crew were very nice to me, I was really excited mostly to meet David Hasselhoff whom my mom, Ryland and I have had crushes on since the very first season.

Once the table read was over which went very well, as I was exiting the room I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see my co-star Michael Bergin.

"Hey, Sonya." Michael Said

"Michael, hey what's up." Sonya Said

"First I just wanted to say you did great in there by the way." Michael Complimented

"Oh no I was just reading some lines on a paper." I Joked

"Yeah I know but I think your doing a good job, now that the easy part is over get ready for tomorrow when we start shooting." Michael Said

"Actually I can't wait till we start shooting, it's all I can think about especially the scene where I try to kill Jessie Owens because I'm so crazy and thinks you guys are dating." I Said

"Speaking of have you ever played a character that's mentally insane?" Michael Asked

"Well no but I've seen various characters who are in movies. I'm hoping I can take some of that and bring Laurie to life, I just want to do a good job honestly." I Said, twiddling my thumbs.

"I'm sure you'll do great tomorrow I'll guide you through it, but before tomorrow by the way the entire cast and crew is having a little party to celebrate Baywatch's tenth season." Michael Mentioned

"Wow that's so cool, where's the party?" I Asked

"They're having it at this place called Roy's you've got to come." Michael Said

"Partying before work tomorrow," I chuckled, "You guys think that is a good idea."

"Don't worry the party starts at 8 and ends at 11, you should swing by it'll be fun plus it would be a great way of getting to know the cast more." Michael Said

Even though I just wanted to relax the first night, so I can be well rested for my first day. But on second thought it wouldn't hurt just to have a little fun.

"Okay, I guess it wouldn't hurt to party for a while." I Said

"No it wouldn't just swing by for a bit it'll be fun." Michael Said, as we both walked out the studio.

═════════ ♡ ═════════

After the amazing party which was held last night, I think attending the party was the great decision. It made my nerves settle down and the cast are pretty cool people, now it's the first day of shooting which I'm really excited about.

As I'm in my bathroom drying my hair, the phone near my bedside rang. I sat the dryer down on the bathroom counter and walked over and answered.

"Hello." I Said

"Ah at last she finally answered the phone." David Said

"Hi baby, what's up." I Smiled, leaning against the headboard of the bed.

"You tell me I've been calling you since yesterday and you haven't answered any of my calls." David Said

"David we spoke after I landed-" I Said

"Yeah and that was hours ago I've been trying to call you, I called you like three times." David Recalled

"Well I was out last night partying with the cast of the show." I Mentioned

"Wait what?" David Said

"Yeah, Michael my co-star invited me to go and I did. And I didn't get back to my hotel room till around 12, I was pretty drunk." I Said

"So you were out partying I thought you were just going to relax your first day. And who the hell is Michael?" David Questioned

"Michael Bergin, he's the guy who plays J.D on the show." I Said

"Another guy named Michael got's your attention I see." David Said

I furrowed my brows, "David he's just being nice that's all."

"Yeah, I bet." David Huffed

"What is your problem do you not trust me or something?" I Asked, annoyed.

"It's not that it's just..I don't like the idea of you kissing another guy that's all, I'm sorry that's just me." David Replied

"David we talked about this the kiss is just for work, it's not going to mean anything." I Repeated

"Yeah I get that-" David sighed, "You know what I'll shut up okay, just forget it okay Sonya."

"David.." I Said

"No it's okay I gotta go anyways I've got work to do, I'll call you later." David Said

"No David just-"

Before I could even say anything the phone went dead, I closed my eyes and fell back onto the bed.
The urge I felt on wanting to call him back was overwhelming, but instead I placed the phone back on the table and got up to go finish getting ready.

Throughout the day of shooting which consisted of me performing a stunt of jumping off a dock which resulted in Michael's character saving me. Even though it was a risky stunt and the director insisted I let my stuntwoman do it but I opted to do it myself.

Then it came time for Michael and I's third scene which was the kissing scene. As I'm sitting sitting down in hair and makeup, going over my lines one last time before we shoot while my makeup artist does some last minute touch ups.

The door opens and entered of the production assistants, "Sonya they're ready for you we've got
to go."

"Coming, am I all set Monica?" I Asked, looking up at the artist.

"Wait just a second," She then applied some lip stick over my lips, "All set good luck." Monica Said

"Thanks again." I Smiled at the woman

I took off my sweater and adjusted my white dress, and exited the trailer following behind the pa assistant. A few moments later I arrived at the beach tower were shooting the scene at, Michael approached me.

"Remember don't get in your head okay, just let the scene flow and you'll be fine." Michael Said, as I nodded.

I took a deep breath then exhaled, "Okay, I got it."

"Okay, let's do this." Michael Said, then we high fived each other.

"Let's do it." I Said

Michael winked at me then exited out the beach tower, the camera crew were all set as one of the film assistants walked over with the clapboard placing it in front of the camera.

"Baywatch scene 32, take one marker!" He Said, then clapped the board and walked off.

"And action!" The director called out

I quickly got into character and waited as Michael was approaching the tower. He put in his key and entered the tower only to see me awaiting for him, with a nice smile with two glasses of wine.

"Hi J.D." I Said

"Huh, now I know what happened to my other key." Michael Said

He waved his hand motioning for me to give it to him. I smirked then handed the key over to him.

"Nice little place you have here it's cute, kinda cozy as well it's like your own little beach house." I Said

"Why'd you take my key Laurie?" Michael Asked

I shrugged my shoulders, "I wanted to surprise you, you since I haven't see you in four years J.D, what I can't see my friend?"

"No you can I just prefer you don't steal my key." Michael Said, as he and I chuckled.

"Fine I won't do it next time, look I know that you save people all the time which is really cool and brave. But this is the first time any one has ever really saved me," I then picked up a book, "Here I want you to have this."

I handed him over the book and he looked at questioningly.

"What's this?" Michael Asked

"It's not 50 bonus points that's for sure, but it's a book of poems. Since I remember you used to be a poet, I even wrote one in there about us." I Said, then bit my lip and smiled.

"Really, what's it say?" Michael Said

"It says "He bravely risked his soul to save her life"-" I Said

"Laurie look I really appreciate this really thank you." Michael Said

"Why do I feel a but coming?" I Said

"Well-" Michael Said

"Don't say "but"..please don't people always start to say nice things, then they take it all away with "but"." I Sighed, then leaned against the counter.

Michael looked at me as I turned around and picked up the two glasses filled with wine.

"Come on share a drink with me J.D." I Said, handing him over a glass which he took.

"Drinking's not allowed on the beach." Michael Said

Michael sighed and took the glass out my hand, and poured both glasses out into the sink. Then I pouted my lips and rolled my eyes at him.

"Look I'd love to hang out with you Laurie, but I can't right now I gotta lock up the tower." Michael Said

"Sure you can, no one's around just hang with me for a few minutes." I Said

"Laurie." Michael Said

"Jack," I mocked then laughed, "What's the rush you save me from drowning and you don't have time for me. Are you in a rush to see your girlfriend or something?"

"I don't have a girlfriend..I had one but, we're just friends." Michael Replied

"Your friends with your ex why?" I Asked, raising a brow.

"Because before we dated we had a good friendship first. But we're on good terms..we're friends again." Michael Said

"Hm, sucks you guys didn't work out..maybe the next girl for you is closer than you think." I Said, as I batted my lashes at him.

"Yeah, and why are you so sure?" Michael Asked, leaning against the door.

I slowly walked over towards him, "J.D I'm sure because I know how great of a guy you are. Any girl would be lucky to be with you, you know I used to have a crush on you back in high school.."

His eyes widened as the corners of his mouth turned up, "You know I always had a feeling."

"Oh please, no you didn't." I rolled my eyes, as he laughed.

"Yeah I did..but I never said anything because I never wanted to upset you or embarrass you." Michael Said

"Well I'm glad you didn't but, yeah I had a crush on you..and I think I still do." I Said, gazing into his eyes.

"Laurie-" Michael Said, then I shushed him with my finger.

"For once J.D don't speak." I Said, softly.

I glanced down at his lips then slowly leaned in, and connected our lips together. He then kissed me back and gently slid his hands down on arms, as it went on there was a knock on the door which caused us to pull apart.

Michael and I looked over and saw Brooke Burns who plays Jessie Owens. She sees the two of us together then awkwardly walks away, as Michael sighed.

"Let me guess...she's the ex girlfriend." I Said, annoyed.

"Yup..that's Jessie." Michael Said

"And cut!" The director yelled out, "Nice Job Michael and Sonya."

The marker guy claps the clapboard as the camera crew and assistants walks over to us.

"Nice Job Sonya." Michael complimented

"Thank you, you did pretty good too." I Said, then winked at him.

The next day after shooting was done for the first episode now that I was free for the next couple of hours, I decided to go explore more around Hawaii with the cast. Soon the midnight hour was creeping in and I was getting tired so headed back over to my hotel.

As I entered my room I immediately collapsed onto the bed, then sat up to take off my sneakers. I looked over my shoulder and glanced over at the phone, then it hit me David hasn't tried to call me all day.

Which was weird considering he's been calling me nonstop since I've been here, I crawled over towards the night stand and dialed his number. The phone continued to ring for about another 10 more seconds until it was answered.

"Um Hello?" The unfamiliar voice spoke up

I quickly sat up in bed and, "Who's this?"

"Who's this?" They Asked

"I asked you first and I'm gonna ask you again, who am I speaking to?" I Said

"Okay Uh..my n-names um Callie."

"Uh okay Callie, my names Sonya and may I ask
why the hell are you answering my boyfriends phone?" I Questioned

"Wait David has a girlfriend? Oh that explains the woman's clothes in his closet." Callie Said

"Where's David?" I Asked, irritated.

"He's um..he's asleep in his bed along with everyone else. We've all had a long night out of partying.." Callie Said, then laughed.

"Partying..typical." I Huffed

"Would you like me to wake him or-"

"No don't wake him let him rest instead Callie I'd like you to pass on this message I'm leaving for him. Tell David that he's a fucking asshole and to never call me again, okay?"

"Uh...okay." Callie Said

"Goodbye." I hung up the phone, "Douchebag." I Gritted through my teeth, then slammed the phone down on the table.
