A Dying Love?

Chapter 16

The next couple of weeks proved to be very busy for everyone. Their schedules were so packed with things they needed to do they barely had any time to rest. Getting up at 6 am and going to bed after midnight was starting to take its toll on all of them.

At the actor's house it was a little after 9pm, they had been let off early. Miley was lying out on the couch next to Emma, and Kyle was snoring away on the seat next to them.

Miley lifted her head from the cushion and looked at Kyle. She whined to herself. "Shut up Kyle" Kyle continued to sleep and a big snore from him told her so.

Emma groaned and rolled over on the couch nearly kicking Miley in the head. "Stupid Ryan, making me work with practically two hours sleep."

Miley rolled off the couch and walked down the hallway mumbling to herself. "I wonder if Nate is done speaking to him Mom..."

Miley shuffled towards his room and knocked softly on the door. She heard a muffled come in from the other side so she opened the door.

"Yeah Mom, I will. Say hi to everyone for me." Nate said smiling at Miley while gesturing her to come in and sit on his bed. "Yeah of course. Alright, I love you Mom, I got to go and get some sleep" he paused for a few seconds. "Okay bye." he said before hanging up the phone and turned to Miley on the bed.

"Hey, did you have a nice chat with your Mom?" Miley asked as he joined her on his bed from his desk chair. He nodded and pulled her back so they could sit next to each other with their backs against the head board.

"She keeps asking me about you, she really wants to meet you." Nate said while bringing his arm around her shoulders. She leant back against his chest and smiled sleepily to herself.

"I wanna meet your Mom too" Miley said before she let out a yawn. "She seems like a really nice lady."

Nate smiled and ran his fingers through her hair soothingly. "She's the best" Nate agreed.

He looked down at Miley's face and saw she was drifting off to sleep. "You wanna sleep here tonight Miles?"

Miley nodded sleepily. Nate moved slightly and pulled down the bed covers so Miley could get in. He then moved under himself.

"Sleep well Miley." Nate whispered, he looked at her face and realised she was already asleep. He pulled her closer to his side and drifted off to sleep too.

The next week continued to be very busy. Everyone's schedules were so packed that they didn't have time to do anything else other than work and sleep. Miley and Nate hardly saw each other than when they were filming scenes, but they weren't alone. It frustrated them both, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Miley shuffled down the hallway of the actors house around 5.50am. She walked into the kitchen area and flopped down on a chair, she looked up at the clock and groaned. She looked behind her at the bagels on the side, she stood up and was about to grab one when Emma ran into the kitchen.

"Miles come on were going to be late! They are going to kill us if we don't get to the hair and makeup trailer on time!" She said grabbing Miley's hand. She pulled her out of the door and they started to run down the street. Miley sighed and thought to herself. 'I'll get something to eat later'

They arrived at the set with two minutes to spare; Miley was ushered into hair and makeup straight away then to wardrobe. As the wardrobe lady was sorting out the bottom of the long skirt she was wearing Miley picked up the apple left for her on the side and took a mouthful happily. After her second mouthful someone from the set came into the trailer asking Miley to come onto to set so she could do a scene.

Miley quickly grabbed one more mouthful of the apple and chucked it into the bin and walked out of the trailer with the woman to the set. She looked around as she walked and saw Nate running into the makeup trailer wearing his clothes for the shoot. She sighed and carried on walking to set.

Once Miley sat down on her chair she looked around at all the extras sitting around waiting for the scene to start. She noticed that there were many more girls than guys, she frowned noticing that they all looked really pretty and dressed really nicely. She suddenly felt really ugly the way she looked. Yeah she had to look that way for the character but she felt so ugly. She felt everyone was looking at her like they did back in high school.

Nate ran onto the set just as Ryan the director was going to shout for him. He gestured for Nate the go and stand with some of the extras. As he walked over her smiled and talked to them for a few seconds as the cameras were positioned. Miley was then positioned on a lunch table on the set slightly facing them. She watched him talking to the girls and suddenly felt really jealous. She watched as the girls chatted excitedly to him, once in a while one made a move to touch him and be all over him. She frowned and turned to face the director waiting for him to finish setting the cameras up. She tried to push the thoughts of Nate and the girls to the back of her head.

Miley waited patiently at the lunch table and kept her back towards Nate and the other girls. After a while Ryan was ready to go and everyone was in their places.

"Okay Nate, you need to just break away from the girls and walk around the other lunch tables in this direction" Ryan said moving to show Nate what direction to go. "You will approach Miley here" Ryan then said appearing next to Miley. "Then you will say the lines, try and make it look like you are trying to be discreet as possible."

Nate nodded and Ryan returned behind the camera. "Okay, BACK GROUND... AND ACTION!

(Landon approaches Jamie at the lunch table)

LANDON

Jamie...

(Jamie turns around and rolls her eyes)

JAMIE

What do you want Cater? I've known you for years, you've never been the first one to come up and say hello.

(Landon pauses)

LANDON

I need help with my lines.

(Jamie smirks and turns around in her seat)

JAMIE

Landon Carter's asking me for help?

LANDON

Yeah

JAMIE

Okay, I'll pray for you.

(Jamie gets up, picks up her bag and starts to walk out of the lunch hall)

(Landon followers her)

LANDON

No, Jamie look really...

JAMIE

You've obviously never have asked anyone for help before, right?

(Landon doesn't say anything)

JAMIE

A request like yours requires flattery, grovelling. It has to not be about you, and be for the common good for everybody.

LANDON

It is for the common good, Eddie Zimahal deserves the best.

(Landon sighs)

Please

JAMIE

Okay, one condition though Carter.

LANDON

What's that?

JAMIE

You have to promise you won't fall in love with me

(Landon laughs because he thinks she's joking)

LANDON

That won't be a problem.

JAMIE

Okay, I'll see you this afternoon after school.

(Jamie walks off)

(Landon watches her walk off)

LANDON

Okay...

"AND CUT!" Ryan shouted. "That was great guys! We just need some more pauses in there because the scenes moving too quickly and it's a key part of the story."

Miley nodded and walked back to her seat, Nate watched her walk away confused as to why she didn't acknowledge him. He shrugged to himself and walked back to his start position and the girls crowed around him again. He nodded at them but couldn't pay attention to what they were saying. He looked over towards Miley and shook his head trying to clear his thoughts.

"Okay, background and action!"

They shot the scene several more times that day and moved onto a couple more. Nate and Miley never really got time to talk in between shots because they were so busy doing hair and makeup retouches and read throughs.

Nate was getting frustrated and wanted to see Miley to see if she was okay. He looked around him and though about making a run for it to Miley's trailer where she was resting because she wasn't filming until later but he was. He wasn't due on set for another ten minutes, he looked around again and saw no one was watching him; he got out of his chair and made a run for the door.

He left the set and wandered over to the trailers keeping his head down. He spotted Miley's trailer and quickly climbed the steps and knocked softly on the door just in case she was asleep. He didn't hear a reply but opened the door carefully and walked inside shut the door quietly behind him. He walked in the main area of the trailer and saw Miley laying on the couch with her eyes closed. He smiled to himself knowing she had been really tired recently.

Miley's eyes fluttered open sensing someone was in the room. She spotted Nate standing a few feet away from here. "Nate? What are you doing here?" her voice croaked. She cleared her throat and sat up a little.

"I have a little while before the scene so I wanted to come see if your okay..." he said still standing in front of her.

Miley rubbed her eyes and leant back against the couch. "I'm fine." She said looking down at her hands.

Nate looked at her for a few seconds. "You're not fine." He said sitting down next to her on the small couch. "I'm not stupid. Please tell me what's wrong. I want to help."

Miley shook her head. "No its stupid. I'm being silly over nothing." She used one of her hands to rub her wrist. Nate noticed she was looking a little thin.

"Miles, are you eating okay? I know Jamie is meant to be sick but you don't have to go that far." Nate said picking up her arm.

"I've been so busy Nate... I'm tired all the time and I haven't had time to eat anything." Miley explained.

Nate sighed. Suddenly they heard shouting from outside the trailer. "NATE WHERE ARE YOU?"

Nate shook his head and stood up. "Miley you need to eat something okay, have a nice sleep and I'll try and come by after this scene okay?" Miley nodded. Nate leant forward and kissed her on the forehead.

"Get some rest. I gotta go before Ryan's head explodes" Nate said leaving the trailer, Miley smiled at his retreating figure and laid back down on the couch.

"I'll grab something later..." she mumbled before falling asleep again.

So that's it for this chapter, I know it's boring and I need some drama but I swear its coming! I'm not good at drama but I'll make it as good as possible! It took me forever to write out the scene they did, I had to watch the scene several times to write down what they did, but I changed it up a bit because it is a remake after all.

Next chapter will up soon hopefully, it is summer and I am going away soon but hopefully I'll have a chapter up before then. Thank you so much for reading this chapter I hope you all like this and please review!
