[IC] Hollywood Hell

"I wonder if my apartment allows animals," she wondered aloud as he spoke. She noticed the paparazzi and her face got bright red. She didn't want the media to think they were a couple, did she? She looked at Derek apologetically, "sorry, um here," she scribbled her number on her receipt and slipped it to him nonchalantly, hoping the cameras wouldn't catch it. She smiled at him with her eyes, then went back to eating her bagel

[NikkiBlake]

Derek shoved the receipt into his pocket. "Bye." Derek turned around and grinned as he bit his lip. He hoped the cameras didn't catch him blushing. He walked back to his table and looked at Jude, still smiling.

Jude smirked, "Did you get her number?" He was secretly observing them the whole time.

Derek replied with a nod of his head, laughing as he did.

"Niceee"

Derek looked at his phone, he had gotten a lot of notifications. He read the comments of his picture, most of them saying. 'OMG you guys are so cute' 'I SHIP IT' and 'WHERE'S JUDE'. Derek put down his phone and finished his toast. He couldn't stop grinning.

Nano wrapped her camera around her neck, attempting to take any pictures that shine beautifully. She stepped inside the cafe. Completely forgetting to bring her Laptop with her. Sighing, she sat down and grabbed her phone. She could just continue her work on the phone. She grabbed her camera and gently placed it on the table. Grabbing her headphones from her pocket she went ahead and began listening to some music while she was checking her camera. Staring at the pictures it reminded her that she had never remembered these models names. Nano giggled softly to herself and continued on to what she was doing.

Red looked up at the waitress and smiled kindly. "Can you tell him 'thanks but if he'd really like to buy me something it's be dinner'? I'd really appreciate it sweetie." The waitress giggled giddily and ran over to Jude and Derek's table. Red smirked slightly and turned back to Zach. She said "see? Free breakfast and we didn't even have to sign anything. Gotta love a redhead's charm." She laughed as Zach chuckled, then heard a small and nervous "excuse me" from behind her. She turned toward a group of teenage girls and smiled. One, the bravest, said in a soft shaky tone "can we have your autograph?" Red looked at Zach and said "hey Zach, looks like we got ourselves a group of beauties." Zach looked toward the group and grinned. "Hey, girls" he said. Red looked back at the girls and got out of her seat. "Why don't I do something better since you guys got me on a good day? Why don't I give ya'll my number and we can hang out sometime? Seeing as you girls seem like fun and I like to hang with my fans every so often. Here" she grabbed one of their pens and wrote her number on their arms. "Call, text, anything you need" she winked at them and went back to her seat as they walked away fangirling.

The waitress walked over to the guys' table and said "she told me to tell you thank you, but if you'd really like to pay for something it'd be dinner."

Red smirked at Zach and he sighed. "You gave them my number didn't you?" She grinned and replied "you know me so well. Hey, atleast you'll finally have girls calling you." Zach glared at her playfully.

[NikkiBlake]

Jude smiled at the waitress, and nodded. He walked over to Red and Zach's table overly confident as always. He winked at Zach and leaned over to talk to Red. "I'd like to take you up on that offer." He whispered into her ear.

[Savi]

Red's eyebrow rose and a small smirk came to her lips. "I didn't think I was the one offering" she said in a teasing tone. Zach's eyebrow rose and he really wanted to protect his sister from this guy, but alas he couldn't. Red looked at Jude with a flirty grin and a mischievious glint in her eye. "What's you're name, Pretty Boy?" She teased a lot of people, it was her way of being friendly and breaking the ice. Not much could Zach say, so he stood up from his seat and said bye to an otherwise distracted Red. He started walking out when he was stopped by a few fans.

[NikkiBlake]

"Jude, Jude Nelson." Jude was surprised she didn't know who he was, everyone did. "Wanna get dinner tonight lovely?" Jude was still whispering in her ear, he ignored Zach as he left. Jude wrote down his number and offered it to Red. He rose his eyebrow.

Juliette got into her red camaro, the first luxury she had treated herself to. She went to her favorite cafe and ordered a coffee and a doughnut, she went and took a seat signing an autograph on someones arm before she could even sit down. Juliette ate breakfast half in peace half smiling for a camera. When Juliette got done she sat there for a while thinking things over.

[Savi]

Red made it seem like she was thinking about the invitation before smirking playfully. "I'll have to clear my schedule" she said with a small smirk before reaching for his number. She leaned in and whispered in his ear "though, you may want to change your tactic next time." She moved back and grinned teasingly. It's a free meal with a hot guy. Why would she say no to that? Though she may have to watch him. She knew guys like him, dated most of them. She's not looking to get hurt again.

[CandiKane]

Lily grinned to herself while she ate her bagel. She finished up and stood up to leave, she did have a shoot to go to today. She made eye contact with Derek and smiled quickly. With that, she slipped out of the cafe and into the bright morning sun. She was almost walking on air, he was so sweet. She couldn't stop thinking about his curly hair or his nervousness. She giggled a little, then walked to her apartment to get her bike. She loved biking to her shoots, to have the wind streaming through her hair and to feel the slight ache as she pedaled on it. She got on and rode off, hoping Derek would text or call her soon.

[NikkiBlake]

Derek checked his watch, he was going to be late for work. He payed for his meal and tipped the waitress. He nodded to Jude who seemed to be preoccupied, and walked out of the cafe. Paparazzi ignored him, since he wasn't with Jude. He really didn't mind. He rounded the corner of the block and reached an alley, he walked into it and entered from the back door of the shelter. He waved to his boss and a few co workers, he made his way to his locker and put on his work clothes. He was sure to save Lily's number on his phone before he threw out the receipt. He made his way into the puppy room,making his usual rounds. He grinned when he reached a certain cage, a brown pug named Dexter had become Derek's favorite. He snapped a picture of him and sent it to Lily 'guess who?'

[CandiKane]

Lily smiled when the text came in. She had just arrived at work and was sitting in her dressing room. She saw the picture and grinned, it was Derek. She quickly replied, Hi Derek! :D What's the dog's name? she hit send then immediately saved the number to her phone. She wondered if he had a dog, or a pet of any kind. She'd swing by the shelter on the way home. She started looking over the script for the movie to refresh her memory. She ran her fingers through her blond hair and heard the others coming into the shooting area. She knew she still had almost ten minutes before prep, she always got to places either a bit early or a bit late.

[NikkiBlake]

'His name's Dexter. We found him in a dumpster a couple weeks ago, he's fine now. Haha.' Derek attached another picture, this time of Dexter climbing all over his face. Dexter was still a puppy, Derek was surprised that anyone would throw him away. Derek slipped his phone in his pocket and continued to play with Dexter.

[CandiKane]

She looked up when her phone buzzed and laughed at the picture. Tell Dexter I said hi, and that I'm happy he's in good hands now. I actually have to go to work now, is it ok if I stop by later? It's the shelter near the cafe right? she set her phone on the vanity and smiled. Her director knocked on the door and told her she had a few minutes. "Alright," she replied and went back to the script

[NikkiBlake]

Jude winked and her and walked back to his table, he paid for his meal and walked out the door. Paparazzi squarmed him of course, he managed to get into his car and drive back home. He had a date tonight which meant he needed to change and tidy up his room.

Derek opened the text and grinned, Derek did a little dance and replied, 'Yup the one by the cafe, im closing tonight so ill be here until 9 >:)' Derek looked at Dexter who was chewing on his finger, "Be cute tonight okay?" Dexter barked playfully. Derek chuckled and put him back into his cage and continued his work.

[CallaLily180]

Juliette walked out of the cafe and paparazzi were all over her, she smiled for the cameras and get in her camaro driving off. She didn't care about where she went she just went there.

[CandiKane]

Lily received the text after she finished her shoot and smiled. She changed back into her normal clothes and went outside to get on her bike. She rode hard and fast to the shelter, her hair streaming through the air as her smile devoured her face. She parked her bike outside, and unfortunately paparazzi saw her. She smiled and signed a bunch of autographs then did a lap with her bike to get away from them. She saw the back entrance and entered, hoping Derek wouldn't mind. She sent him a quick text I'm here :)

[Savi]

Red smirked slightly. She got up from her seat and walked over to Zach. He, on the otherhand, was distracted by his own imagination. He stared at the girl that left the cafe in a hurry. He was taken aback with Juliette's beauty, but he knew she was probably taken. Red cleared her throat and Zach jumped slightly. Red grinned at him and wiggled her eyebrows slightly. "Somethin' catch your eye?" He glared at her as his cheeks reddened a bit. She grinned widely. "Who's she?" He sighed, knowing she would pester. "She's Juliette-" Red's eyes widened. "Wait, you saw Juliette... the actress?!" He nodded with a small blush, reddening his ears. Red grinned. "Maybe you guys could roleplay together." He glared at her and she stuck her tongue out at him before making a mad dash for her appartment. He ran after her. "You little- GET BACK HERE!" She giggled as she ran.

[NikkiBlake]

Derek had changed back into his regular clothes and was cleaning up, all of his coworkers had gone and his boss tossed him the keys. He waved goodbye and checked his phone. Derek ran his hand through his hair and checked if he smelt like dog, he didn't, thankfully. He walked to the back and greeted Lily. "Hi" he said nervously.

Jude went back to the house and changed, he sprayed himself with more expensive cologne and waited for the text/call, if she didn't call he wouldn't mind. Would he? He had plenty of girls wanting to date him but something about Red was different.

[CandiKane]

"Hi," she said with a smile. She looked around at all the different animals, Dexter caught her eye, "That's Dexter, right?" she said with a smile. She crouched down to look at the dog and asked, "How was work?" she looked up at Derek and smiled, slightly nervous
