Why Not? - Chapter 3

Chapter 3
I've already told Craig about my decision, so he asked me to meet him again at Starbucks because we were also going to meet the producer and director of the movie.

I entered at the coffee shop, and I saw them, talking. What if they just turned their offer? What if I didn't like them? Damn, I was nervous.

"Hello," I said as I stood in front of the three men. Craig also seemed a little bit nervous, but still he wasn't ashamed of wearing the clothes that he was wearing.

"Good morning!" one of them men said, the most old, probably, "Take a seat, son" he said, pointing to the empty chair next to Craig.

"Robert, he's Jonathan Mark, the director of the movie, and they're Pete and Riley Thompson, the writers and producers of the movie" Craig said.

"Nice to meet you" I said politely.

"Craig told us that you want to do the part," Riley said.

"Yeah, and I accepted because I think that this script is just amazing."

"Thank you," Pete and Riley said, but Pete seemed more excited about my comment

"And we thought you were great for the part," Jonathan said. Craig had already told me that the three of them (Jonathan, Pete and Riley) were really good friends at college.

We kept talking of how we were going to work and that I should sign the contract. These made me feel a much more relived. They seemed nice persons. They reminded humble in their work. And after an hour, we said our good-byes and I arrived at my apartment really excited about this new movie.

"Hello?" I answered my cell phone.

"Hey, bro! It's me, Will."

"Will! Hey!" I said. Will was my best friend "How are you doing?"

"I'm doing great, you? How about that movie?"

"I'm good. And, well, I just came from a meeting with the director and writers, so..."

"That's great!" he said "Hey, do you remember Cat?" he asked. How could I forget her? I mean, Will talks about her 24/7! Ok, not that much, but man, he's so desperate for her.

"Yeah...what's up with her?"

"Well, her friend Andi invited us and a bunch of friends to her party this Friday. Amber's invited too. What do you say?"

"Great! I mean, I'll ask Amber, but I think she'll come."

Will's car stopped in front of a huge house in a nice neighborhood. The music was so loud, that we could listen to it from the car. Will, a bunch of friends, and I stepped out of the car and headed to the door. And I was surprised that they heard the doorbell over the loud music!

Amber didn't want to come to the party because she said she was busy and tired. I didn't want to go either but she just said "Oh, go! Have fun! Besides, it's been a long time since you've gone out with your friends. It's okay, I really don't mind".

The house was huge, as well as the living room, which was full of people (chatting, dancing, drinking, having a good time). The lights were almost off, and the smell of smoke and alcohol was there.

"Hey, where's Andy?" Will asked.

"Oh, she's over there," Kim said "I'm going to call her."

As soon as Kim left, the music stopped and everybody turned to a corner of the room. I looked over there and saw instruments and people playing them. They were like five of them: a red-haired girl was on the drums, on the bass was a tall guy, on the keyboards was another guy with glasses (he seemed pretty geeky), on the guitar was a curly haired boy, and then there was a girl, who seemed like she was the singer.

Watcha' been doin'? Watcha' been doin'?

Woaw, woaw, haven't see you around

How ya' been feelin'? How ya' been feelin'?

Whoa, whoa, don't you bring me down

And even if the song wasn't so good, all the females in the crowd were moving their heads like in a Nirvana concert (okay, if Kurt Cobain was alive). Anyway, the girl who was singing didn't seem happy with it. She wasn't so tall, she was brunette, and was wearing a pair of faded jeans and a pink shirt. Oh, and a pair of dark blue Converse.

Capítulo 3
Ya le había dicho a Craig sobre mi decisión, así que me pidió que me encontrara con el otra vez en Starbucks porque también nos encontraríamos con el productor y el director de la película. Maldición, estaba un poco nervioso.

"Hola" dije mientras me paraba frente a los tres hombres. Craig también parecía un poco nervioso, pero aun así no estaba avergonzado de usar esa ropa que usaba.

"¡Buenos días!" uno de los hombres dijo, el mas viejo probablemente "Toma asiento, hijo" dijo, señalando la silla vacía junto a Craig.

"Robert, el es Jonathan Mark, el director de la película, y ellos son Pete y Riley Thompson, los escritores y productores de la película" dijo Craig.

"Mucho gusto" dije.

"Craig nos dijo que querías hacer el papel" dijo Riley.

"Si, y acepte por creo que el libreto es increíble"

"Gracias" Pete y Riley dijeron, pero Pete parecía mas emocionado por mi comentario.

"Y creímos que eras genial para el papel" dijo Jonathan. Craig ya me había dicho que los tres (Jonathan, Pete y Riley) eran muy amigos en la universidad.

Seguimos hablando de como íbamos a trabajar y que debía firmar el contrato. Luego de una hora, nos despedimos y llegue a mi departamento muy emocionado con la nueva película.

"¿Hola?" conteste mi celular.

"¡Hola, hermano! Soy yo, Will"

"¡Will! ¡Hola!" dije. Will era mi mejor amigo "¿Como estas?"

"Muy bien, ¿y tu? ¿Que tal lo de la película?"

"Estoy bien. Y, bueno, acabo de venir de la junta con el director y los escritores, así que..."

"¡Eso es genial!" dijo "Oye, ¿recuerdas a Cat?" pregunto. ¿Como olvidarla? Quiero decir, ¡Will habla de ella 24/7! De acuerdo, no tanto, pero Dios esta tan desesperado por ella.

"Si...¿que pasa con ella?"

"Bueno, su amiga Andi nos invito a nosotros y a un par de amigos a su fiesta este viernes. Amber también esta invitada. ¿Que dices?"

"¡Genial! Digo, le preguntare a Amber, pero creo que vendrá"

El auto de Will paro enfrente de una gran casa en un barrio bastante caro. Will, un par de amigos y yo bajamos del auto y nos dirigimos a la puerta. ¡Y yo estaba sorprendido de que ahí adentro escucharan el timbre!

Amber no quiso ir a la fiesta porque dijo que estaba muy ocupada y cansada. Yo no quería ir tampoco, pero ella me dijo "¡Oh, anda! ¡Diviértete! Además, hace mucho que no sales con tus amigos. Esta bien, en verdad no importa".

La casa era enorme, también el living el cual estaba lleno de gente (hablaban, bailaban, tomaban, la estaban pasando bien).

"Hola, ¿como esta Andy?" Will pregunto.

"Oh, ella esta por ahí" dijo Kim "La voy a llamar"

Tan pronto como Kim se fue, la música paro y todos miraron a la esquina del cuarto. Mire hacia allí y vi instrumentos y gente que se posicionaba para tocarlos. Eran como cinco: una chica pelirroja estaba en la batería, en el bajo había un chico alto, en el teclado había un chico con anteojos (parecía bastante nerd), en la guitarra había un chico con rulos y la que parecía la cantante era una chica.

Watcha' been doin'? Watcha' been doin'?

Woaw, woaw, haven't see you around

How ya' been feelin'? How ya' been feelin'?

Whoa, whoa, don't you bring me down

Y si bien la canción no era genial, toda el publico femenino movía sus cabezas como si fuera un concierto de Nirvana (si Kurt Cobain viviera...). Igual, ni siquiera la chica que cantaba parecía feliz con ella. La chica no era muy alta, era morocha, y estaba usando un par de jeans desgastados y una remera rosa. Oh, un par de Converse azules.

Chapter 3

I groaned in anger. She was unbelievable! I thought she would at least stay and reconsider the idea of being together again. Well, it seemed that it wouldn't happen.

After calming myself down, I walked to the bathroom, took a long shower, dressed up, made my breakfast, and took out my dog, Sidi. Who escaped.

And it was like that for five minutes or so. Trying to chase Sidi. Funny scene if you see it from the outside. Suddenly, I lost Sidi and found myself in the park.

"Oh, great" I thought. I tried to search for the black haired dog, but with no sign of him I just sighed. Then I heard Sidi bark not so far from me. I followed the sound and found Sidi with somebody. "There you are" I said, and looked up to the person who was with him.

"He's yours?" a female voice said. I could see a girl. Well, maybe she was like 22 or 24.

"Yeah," I said walking towards her, who was kneeled "I've been chasing him for some time."

"He's such a cutie," she said smiling to Sidi, "What's his name?"

"Sidi" I replied "You like dogs, don't you?"

"Well, when you've lived your whole life surrounded by four dogs, I guess you start to love them." she said smiling as I took Sidi and she stood up. Now that I could see her better, she wasn't really skinny or fat. She had a hippie style because she was wearing a pair of old jeans, a hippie hand pack and a baby blue shirt that said, "I'm in love with the 70's". But her smile was simply perfect.

"Thank you...I'm Orlando" I said, as we shook hands. I was a bit scared that she might find out who I was, but she didn't say anything.

"Mary."

"Nice to meet you, Mary."

"Oh my..." she said as she looked at her watch, "I'm pretty late. It was nice to meet you Orlando, and please keep watching Sidi."

"I will..."

"Bye." she said smiling and left me standing there, watching how she left: almost running. I walked back home, and my cell phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hey you." Jennifer's voice said on the other side of the line.

"Jennifer! Why did you do that?"

"Oh, I'm so sorry sweetheart, but I needed to leave."

"What? You're not working!"

"Yeah, but today I needed to do some stuff,"

"Whatever, when will I see you again?"

"Mmm...I'll be busy."

"Ok, don't worry. But can you please tell me that you weren't serious when you said you were leaving me?"

"What? Are you crazy or what??"

"What do you mean?"

"I'm done with you, Orli! I've told you this before!"

"And...what about last night??"

"Oh...." she said "Ok, let's do something, okay? Meet me at Starburcks tomorrow at 5."

"Alright, I'll see you there."

"Bye bye" and she hang up. I couldn't believe what I'd heard! She was done with me?? Maybe tomorrow we could talk more...

Chapter 4

The phone rang once again, and I was sitting on my couch, thinking about Jennifer all over again, and what she'd said.

"Orli, hey! It's me, Elijah"

"Lij, hey" I said, "What's up?"

"Well...I need a HUGE favor"

"Oh, no...not that" I said, wanting to hang up in that moment.

"What?? I didn't say anything!!!"

"Not a double date, not again!"

"Oh...well, I guess you already knew"

"I knew? I obviously knew what you were about to ask!! And my answer is no."

"Oh, come on Orli! It's just a couple of hours...Please!!"

I thought about it once more. I didn't want to go. The last time it happened, I had to yell at my date that I didn't want to have sex with her. Besides, I didn't want to lose Jennifer for some crazy girl who kisses on the first date.

"Lij, I'm trying to get Jenn back. I don't think so."

"Oh, she won't know. I won't tell her, I promise"

Now I didn't have any excuse. I had to go. For my friend. Damn.

"Alright. When is it?"

"Tonight. Don't worry, I'll pick you up at 10, alright?"

"Ok, who's the girl this time?"

"A girl called Leslie. She's coming with a friend. I think her name is Tina...I'm not sure" he said "Don't worry. She's pretty"

"The last thing I need is for here to be pretty. Lij, I'm trying to get back with Jenn!!"

"And what if it doesn't work? I mean...we know Jennifer!! She's quite strange..."

"Oh, shut up Lij"

"Alright, alright...but seriously, have fun tonight, don't think about her, okay?"

"You know I can't do that."

"Okay, I give up!" he said "See you at 10...and thank you so much!"

"Whatever, bye." We hang up.

I sighed. Another night with a boring girl. What a friend I am.

Chapter 5

The night finally came, I took a shower and got dressed. I decided for a pair of dark jeans and the "Harley Davidson" t-shirt. I was okay because I wasn't expecting to go anywhere fancy. Especially because Lij didn't like those place either.

Elijah showed up just in time, and we left to go somewhere to meet those girls.

"Here we are." Elijah said as we sat down in a peaceful pub.

"Nice. I never saw this one"

"It's kind of new actually," he said smiling.

"When are these girls coming?"

"They must be here by now," Lij said looking at his watch, "Actually, they are here."

As I heard that, I waited. I didn't want to turn to the girls till they were there.

"Hey" Elijah said, standing up to greet them. So did I.

"Hey" the girls replied. These girls weren't as bad as I thought they would be: one of them was blonde with brown eyes. She had a small body, and she was wearing a black skirt and a pink top. The other had dark hair, blue eyes, pale skin, tall, and she was wearing a pair of jeans and a green shirt.

"Well, girls, this is my friend Orlando...Orli, she's Leslie and this is Tina" he said, pointing first to the blonde girl and then the dark-haired.

At least my date wasn't so bad. The girls sat down and we started to chat. Actually, all of them were talking except me.

"So Mary, almost freaked me out!!" Leslie was talking about something but as I heard that name I woke up.

"Mary?" I asked. The name sounded so familiar, but I couldn't remember where I've heard it.

"Yeah, she's my boss. Why?" Leslie asked with an odd face.

"No...it's just...I liked the name..." I tried not to sound like a freak, but they continued talking. This was going to be a long night.

And it was. They continued chatting, and I was getting pretty bored. My only fun was just hearing the music that was in the place, but I couldn't hear it very well because there was a lot of noise.

Finally, they decided to stand up and leave because it was getting late. Elijah and Leslie were walking in front of Tina and I, really cheerfully.

after so long...

Capítulo 3

Hice un sonido demostrando mi enojo. Era increíble. Al menos pensé que se quedaría y reconsideraría eso de volver otra vez. Bueno, parece que no sería así.

Luego de calmarme, camine al baño, tome una larga ducha, me cambie de ropa, me hice el desayuno y me lleve a mi perro Sidi a pasearlo.

Y estuve como por cinco minutos o mas tratando de perseguir al perro, porque se había escapado. Era una escena graciosa si la veías de lejos. De repente, perdí al perro de mi vista y me encontré parado en el parque.

"Oh, genial" pensé. Intente buscar a mi perro de pelo negro, pero sin éxito. Suspire. Pero escuche su ladrido no tan lejos de donde estaba. Seguí el sonido y encontré a Sidi con alguien. "Ahí estas" dije y mire a la persona con la que estaba.

"¿Es tuyo?" una voz femenina dijo. Pude ver a una chica. Bueno, tal vez tenia como 22 o 24.

"Si" dije caminando hacia ella, la cual estaba arrodillada "Lo estuve buscando por unos cuantos minutos"

"El es tan lindo" dijo ella sonriéndole al perro "¿Cómo se llama?"

"Sidi" le respondí "Parece que te gustan los perros, ¿no?"

"Bueno, cuando vives toda tu vida rodeada de cinco perros, supongo que los empiezas a amar" dijo sonriendo mientras yo agarraba a Sidi y ella se paro. Ahora que la veía mejor, no era ni flaca ni gorda. Tenia un estilo medio hippy porque estaba usando un par de viejos jeans, un morral y una remera de color celeste que decía "Estoy enamorada de los 70’s". Pero su sonrisa era simplemente perfecta.

"Gracias...soy Orlando" dije, extendiendo mi mano y ella la tomo. Estaba un poco asustado porque tal vez ella podía descubrir quien era, pero no dijo nada.

"Mary"

"Mucho gusto Mary"

"Oh Dios..." dijo mientras miraba su reloj "Estoy un poco tarde. Fue un gusto conocerte Orlando, y cuida a Sidi"

"Lo haré..."

"Chau" dijo mientras sonreía y me dejo ahí, mirando como se iba: casi corriendo. Camine de regreso a casa, y mi celular sonó.

"¿Hola?"

"Hola lindo" la voz de Jennifer dijo.

"¡Jennifer! ¿¿Por qué hiciste eso??"

"Oh, lo lamento mucho corazón, pero necesitaba irme"

"¿Qué? ¡No estas trabajando!"

"Si, pero hoy necesitaba hacer cosas"

"Como sea, ¿cuándo te veré de nuevo?"

"Mmm...estaré ocupada"

"Ok, no te preocupes. Pero puedes por favor decirme que no hablabas en serio cuando dijiste que me dejabas"

"¿Qué? ¿Estas loco o que?"

"¿Qué quieres decir?"

"¡Termine contigo, Orli! ¡Te lo he dicho antes!"

"¿¿Y...que fue eso de anoche??"

"Oh..." exclamo "Ok, hagamos algo, ¿si? Encuéntrame en el Straburcks mañana a la 5 de la tarde"

"De acuerdo, te veré ahí"

"Chau" y colgó. ¡No podía creer lo que acababa de escuchar! ¿¿Había terminado conmigo?? Pero a lo mejor mañana podríamos hablar mejor...

Capítulo 4

El teléfono sonó una vez mas, y en ese momento estaba sentando en el sofá, pensando otra vez en Jennifer...

"Orli, ¡hola! Soy yo, Elijah"

"Lij, hola" dije "¿Qué tal?"

"Bueno...necesito que me hagas un GRAN favor"

"Oh, no...no eso" dije, queriendo cortarle en ese momento.

"¿¿Qué?? ¡¡¡No dije nada!!!"

"No una cita doble, ¡no de nuevo!"

"Oh...bueno, supongo que lo sabias"

"¿Sabia? ¡¡Era mas que obvio que sabia que me ibas a pedir eso!! Y mi respuesta es no"

"Oh, ¡vamos Orli! Son solo un par de horas...¡Por favor!"

Lo pensé una vez mas. No quería ir. La ultima vez que paso, tuve que gritarle a la chica que no quería tener sexo con ella. Además, no quería perder a Jennifer...

"Lij, estoy intentando de recuperar a Jenn. No lo creo"

"Oh, no lo sabrá. No le diré, lo prometo"

Ahora no tenia ninguna excusa. Tenia que ir. Por mi amigo. Maldición.

"De acuerdo. ¿Cuándo es?"

"Esta noche. No te preocupes, te paso a buscar a las 10, ¿de acuerdo?"

"De acuerdo. ¿Quién es esta vez?"

"Una chica llamada Leslie. Ella viene con una amiga. Creo que su nombre es Tina...no estoy muy seguro" dijo "No te preocupes. Ella es linda"

"Lo ultimo que necesito es que sea linda. Lij, ¡¡estoy intentando estar con Jenn!!"

"¿Y que pasa si no funciona? Quiero decir...¡¡conocemos a Jennifer!! Es un poco rara..."

"Oh, cállate Lij"

"Bien, bien…pero en serio, diviértete esta noche sin pensar en ella, ¿esta bien?"

"Sabes que no lo puedo hacer"

"De acuerdo, ¡me rindo!" dijo "Te veo a las 10...¡y muchísimas gracias!"

"Si, como sea. Chau" y cortamos.

Suspire. Otra noche con una chica aburrida. Que amigo soy…

Capítulo 5

La noche finalmente llego y me cambie luego de bañarme. Decidí ponerme un par de jeans oscuros y esa remera oscura que decía "Harley Davidson". Esta bien porque no espera ir a ningún lugar muy elegante. Especialmente porque a Lij tampoco le gustaban esos lugares.

Elijah apareció justo a tiempo, y nos fuimos al lugar donde encontraríamos a estas chicas...

"Ya llegamos" Elijah dijo mientras nos sentábamos en un club bastante tranquilo.

"Es lindo. Nunca lo vi"

"En verdad creo que es nuevo" dijo sonriendo.

"¿Cuándo vienen las chicas?"

"Deben estar aquí" Lij dijo mirando a su reloj "De hecho, están aquí"

Mientras escuchaba eso, espere. No quería voltear a las chicas hasta que estuvieran ahí.

"Hey" dijo Elijah, parándose para saludar. Yo hice lo mismo.

"Hey" respondieron las chicas. Esa chicas no estaban tan mal como pensé: una de ellas era rubia con ojos marrones. Tenia un cuerpo pequeño, y vestía una pollera negra y un top de color rosa. La otra tenia el pelo negro, ojos azules, piel pálida, alta, y estaba usando un par de jeans y una remera verde.

"Bueno, chicas, el es mi amigo Orlando...Orli ella es Leslie y ella es Tina" el dijo, apuntando primero a la rubia y luego a la de cabello negro.

Al menos, mi cita no estaba tan mal. Las chica se sentaron y la charla comenzó. En verdad, todos hablaban excepto yo.

"Así que Mary, ¡¡casi mas me mata del susto!!" Leslie estaba hablando de algo pero al escuchar ese nombre me desperté.

"¿Mary?" pregunte. El nombre me sonaba familiar, pero no podía recordar bien la cara.

"Si, es mi jefa. ¿Por qué?" Leslie pregunto con una cara extraña.

"No...es solo que...me gustaba ese nombre" intente no sonar como un loco, pero ellos continuaron hablando. Iba a ser una noche bastante larga.

Y lo fue. Ellos siguieron hablando, y me estaba aburriendo. Mi única diversión era la música que estaba escuchando en ese lugar, pero no la podía escuchar bien ya que había mucho ruido.

Finalmente, decidieron pararse y salir del lugar ya que era un poco tarde. Elijah y Leslie caminaban en frente de Tina y yo, muy contentos.

it's been a long...

Chapter 2

The night was beautiful. It was actually all starry, it was the middle of June and it was quite nice.

If I've learned anything in these past months it's to be romantic. Funny, huh? The thing is, there's a woman who made me change. Girls need romance, and guys...well, we like romance deep down inside as well.

"I'm so glad you brought me here," she said.

"Really?" I said, surprised by the comment. The restaurant wasn't a great one, and I was really worry about that. But still it was comfortable, warm. It was painted in red and brown colors, with matching flowers and tableclothes.

"Yeah! You know those fancy restaurants make me feel uncomfortable" she said, smiling "This...this actually is nice"

Her smile made me feel something that I've never felt before. Amber is the most beautiful woman I've ever meet. Not just because of her looks, all of her was beautiful to me: nice, optimistic, easy-going, understanding, mature, responsible, funny, crazy. She wasn't the model-type, she was actually happy with her body. One funny thing about her: she loved to take care of her hair. I met her in her "blondey period", but recently she's been a red-head. She doesn't need fancy restaurants or expensive things to make her happy. She's all I needed.

We always spent the whole nights, the whole time that we were together, talking and talking. About our jobs, about our families, about our troubles, about our joys, about stupid and senseless things, about us. I loved being around her.

Yes, I sound so corny but yes, I was in love.

"So what's up with the script? Have you finished it?"

"Not yet. I'm almost done, but I plan tell Craig that I'm in," I said and she smiled "But, how about you? How was work today?"

"Fine. I'm a bit worried because I have to finish this article before Thursday and I can't find inspiration. Besides, Norah keep telling me that I need to finish..." she said "But other than that, everything is fine"

"Do you need any help?"

"No, I'm fine, really. I'll end it up before Thursday."

Even if I loved Amber with all my soul, lately she's been a bit changed. She just seems more distant. My friends told me that there's nothing to worry about, that when you're with somebody more than 6 months, it tends to happen. So I decided not to say anything, maybe they were right.

Why Not? - Capítulo 2

Thu, 01 Mar 2007 19:06:27 GMT

Capítulo 2

La noche estaba hermosa. Era mas que nada porque estaba estrellada, en medio de Junio y era bastante agradable.

Si aprendí algo estos últimos meses fue a ser romántico. Gracioso, ¿no? Lo que pasa es que hay una mujer que me hizo cambiar. Las chicas necesitan romance, y los chicos...bueno, muy por dentro nos gusta el romance .

"Estoy muy contenta que me hayas traído acá" dijo.

"¿En serio?" dije, sorprendido por el comentario. El restaurante no era la gran cosa, y estaba preocupado por eso.

"¡Si! Sabes que esos restaurantes elegantes no me hacen sentir muy cómoda" dijo sonriendo "Esto...es muy lindo"

Amber era la mujer mas hermosa que había conocido. No solo por su apariencia, todo ella era belleza para mi: agradable, optimista, fácil de hablar, comprensiva, madura, responsable, divertida, loca. No era la tipo modelo, a decir verdad ella estaba muy contenta con su cuerpo. Algo gracioso de ella: amaba teñirse el cabello. La conocí en su "periodo rubio", pero recientemente el pelirroja. Ella no necesitaba restaurantes elegantes o cosas muy caras para ser feliz. Ella era todo lo que yo necesitaba.

Siempre pasábamos todas las noches, todo el tiempo que estábamos juntos, hablando y hablando. De nuestros trabajos, de nuestras familias, de nuestros problemas, de nuestras alegrías, de nuestras cosas tontas y sin sentido, de nosotros. Amaba estar con ella.

Si, sueno tan cursi pero si, estaba enamorado.

"¿Entonces que tal va el libreto? ¿Ya lo terminaste?"

"No aun. Ya casi termino, pero planeo decirle a Craig que estoy de acuerdo" dije y ella sonrió "Pero, ¿como estas tu? ¿Que tal estuvo el trabajo hoy?"

"Bien. Un poco preocupada porque tengo que termina este articulo antes del jueves y no encuentro inspiración. Además, Norah me sigue diciendo que debo terminar..." dijo "Pero aparte de eso, todo esta bien"

"¿Necesitas ayuda?"

"No, estoy bien, en serio. Terminare antes del jueves"

Aunque amara a Amber con toda mi alma, últimamente estaba un poco cambiada. Parecía mas distante. Mis amigos me dijeron que no había que preocuparse, que cuando están con alguien por mas de 6 meses, tiende a pasar. Así que decidí no decir nada mas, tal vez tenían razón.

Capítulo 2

"Bueno, vine con unos amigos. Creo que tu hiciste lo mismo" dije, mientras miraba a la chica pelirroja al lado de Jennifer.

"Oh, si. Perdón...Orlando, ella es Sarah...Sarah, el es Orlando"

"Mucho gusto" dijo Sarah con una gran sonrisa.

"Pero Sarah se estaba por ir, ¿¿verdad??" Jennifer dijo un poco el voz alta la ultima parte.

"Oh, ¡si!" dijo un poco avergonzada "Los veo luego"

"Chau" le respondí mientras se iba.

"Así que...dime. ¿Cómo has estado estos días?"

"Nada muy importante" respondí tratando de sonreír. Tratando de impresionarla "¿Y tu?"

"En verdad, nada. Fui a algunas fiestas...tu sabes" dijo con un tono mas sexy "Oh, ¡amo esa canción! ¿Quieres bailar?"

"Claro" dije sonriendo, dándome cuenta de que tal vez esta podía ser mi noche.

"La Tortura" de Shakira y Alejandro Sanz estaba sonando en todo el lugar. Y mientras estábamos en la pista, Jennifer empezó a bailar conmigo de una forma sexy.

Amaba todo de ella. ¿Por qué no lo haría? Era perfecta ante mis ojos: flaca, rubia, ojos verdes, dulce, gran sentido de la moda, tenia su carácter. El sueño de cada chico.

Bueno, esa noche termino...creo que lo pueden imaginar. Al día siguiente me desperté...solo.

"¿Qué?" dije un poco asustado porque ella no esta ahí "¿Jennifer?" la llame por toda la casa. Pero no estaba. No encontré ningún rastro de ella hasta que fui a la cocina y vi un pequeño pedazo de papel con la letra de ella...

Orlando:

Lo de ayer estuvo genial. Como los viejos tiempos. Pero veras...necesito seguir con mi vida. Pero no quiere decir que no podamos seguir siendo amigos.

Hasta luego,

Jennifer.

Chapter 2

"Well, I came here with some friends. I think you did the same" I said, looking at the red-haired girl next to Jennifer.

"Oh, yes. Sorry...Orlando, this is Sarah...Sarah, this is Orlando."

"Nice to meet you." Sarah said with a huge smile.

"But Sarah was just about to leave, right??" Jennifer said, saying the last word a bit louder than the others.

"Oh, yes!" she said, a bit ashamed, "See you later guys."

"Bye." I replied her as she left.

"So...tell me. What have been doing these days?"

"Nothing really important," I replied, trying to smile, trying to impress her, "And you?"

"Actually, nothing. I went to some parties...you know," she said with a sexy smile, "Oh, I love this song! Wanna dance?"

"Sure" I said smiling, realizing that maybe this would be my night.

"La Tortura" by Shakira and Alejandro Sanz was pounding through the whole place. And as we were on the dance floor, Jennifer started to dance with me in a sexy way.

I loved everything about her. Why wouldn't I? She was perfect in my eyes: skinny, blonde, green eyes, sweet, great sense of fashion, and she had attitude. Every boy's dream.

Well, that night ended...as you could imagine. And I woke up the next day...all alone.

"What?" I said a bit scared because she wasn't there, "Jennifer?" I called her name out all through the house. But she wasn't there. I didn't get any sign of her until I went to the kitchen and saw a small piece of paper with her handwriting...

Orlando,

Last night was awesome. Like the old times. But you see...I need to move on. But it doesn't mean that we can't still be friends.

See you later,

Jennifer.

Why Not? es mi primer fan fiction de Robert :D La idea fue tomada de otra historia que escribi, asi que se trata mas de los otros personajes (Robert y Julie).
Espero que les guste, y los comentarios son siempre bienvenidos! :D

Autor: Julieta.

Clasificación: PG-13

Nota: Robert Pattinson o otras personas famosas en esta historia no me pertenecen. Tampoco las letras musicales que puedan aparecer en esta historia, estas pertenecen a sus respectivas bandas/cantantes. Si me pertenecen los personajes ficticios.
Lenguaje: Ingles.

Sumario: Robert finalmente encuentra roles que le gustan, su carrera esta tomando una nueva dirección. ¿Pero que pasa cuando su vida personal se empieza a caer? Tendrá que tomar unas cuantas decisiones.

Capítulo 1
Mi celular sonó. Abrí mis ojos y me di cuenta que eran las 9 am. Bostece y atendí con un vago "¿Hola?"

"¡Hola!"

"Oh, Craig, hola" dije, intentando no volver a bostezar.

"¿Te desperté?"

"No, no" le mentí a mi manager, Craig "Así que...dime..."

"Oh, si. Bueno tengo algo nuevo"

"¿Algo nuevo?" dije, abriendo mis ojos "Quieres decir...¿¿un libreto??"

"Si mi querido amigo" dijo Craig, probablemente sonriendo del otro lado.

"Eso es...¡eso es genial!"

"Si, lo es. Bueno, encuéntrame en Sartbucks a las 14:30, ¿si? Así te contare todo"

"Claro" dije y colgué.

Esta fue la mejor noticia en toda la semana. Primero que nada, no podía dormir bien últimamente. Tal vez porque he estado nervioso: no estaba encontrando ningún libreto, quería volver a actuar, luego mi departamento...Dios, la renta...¡ahora se lo que es!

Pase el resto de la mañana yendo al supermercado, tratando de "arreglar" el departamento y luego me fui para encontrarme con Craig.

"¡Finalmente!" Craig dijo, parándose de su silla, probablemente pensó que llegue tarde. Craig era ese tipo de managers locos: usaba lentes de sol horribles, ropa ridícula. Pero aun así era un buen hombre

"Hola Craig" dije, estrechándonos las manos "¡Dime!"

"Si, imagino que te mueres por saber" dijo, buscando algo en su bolso. Probablemente el libreto "Toma" dijo, apoyando un montón de papeles frente mío.

"Woaw...es bastante grande" dije, hojeándolo.

"Si, pero es buen material" dijo Craig "Los productores de la película son buenos, lo único es que el director el nuevo y dos hermanos en la universidad escribieron el libreto"

"Buena combinación" bromee.

"Me debes decir tu opinión antes del jueves, ¿de acuerdo?"

"De acuerdo" dije.

Pase el resto de la tarde leyendo el libreto. En verdad era uno muy bueno y estaba feliz de que algo bueno finalmente vino.

El teléfono sonó.

"¿Hola?"

"Hola amor" y yo sonreí. Esa era Amber.

"Hola, hermosa" dije "¿Como estas?"

"Bien, ¿tu?"

"Feliz. Buenas noticias: Craig me trajo un libreto" dije.

"¡¡¿¿En serio??!! ¡Rob, eso es genial!" dijo, y podía apostar que tenia una gran sonrisa del otro lado. Si, esa es mi novia: siempre feliz por mi.

"¡Lo es!" dije "Entonces estuve pensando que tal vez podríamos salir. Ya sabes, para celebrar"

"Suena genial"

Esta debe ser una de las primeras historias decentes y que haya recibido tantos comentarios (en otro foro) que yo haya escrito.
Espero que les guste :D

Autor: Julieta.

Clasificación: PG-13

Nota: Orlando Bloom o otras personas famosas en esta historia no me pertenecen. Tampoco las letras musicales que puedan aparecer en esta historia, estas pertenecen a sus respectivas bandas/cantantes. Si me pertenecen los personajes ficticios.
Lenguaje: Ingles.

Sumario:Orlando vive la típica vida de Hollywood: sale con celebridades, tiene una gran casa, esta con una modelo. Todo. Pero cuando descubre la verdad, dos chicas diferentes lo ayudaran a vivir de una forma diferente.

Capítulo 1

La noche era joven, y toda la gente estaba haciendo la fila para entrar en algún club famoso. Mis amigos y yo estábamos sentados en la sala VIP, hablando y pasando un buen momento...

"Así que...¿dónde esta Jennifer?" me pregunto Elijah.

"Ella...ella corto conmigo" dije, agachando la mirada.

"¡¿QUÉ?! ¡No nos dijiste!" Dominic dijo muy sorprendido por la noticia que yo, su amigo, le estaba dando.

"Si. Fue hace como dos días atrás"

"Pero...¿por qué?" Dom pregunto.

"Dice que soy un irresponsable, que estoy muy ocupada para ella. Que mi amor no es suficiente" dije mientras tomaba de mi trago.

"No, ¿¿de verdad??" dijo Elijah.

"Si. Eso es lo que ella dice..." dije "Dios, la amo. En verdad. Me preocupo por ella, aun si estoy muy ocupado"

"Lo sabemos, lo sabemos..." dijo Dom.

"No quiero sonar malo ni nada, pero creo que estas mejor así" Billy dijo y todos los chicos lo miraron "Quiero decir...cuando estabas con ella...te trataba muy mal. Como si fueras su perro"

"Oh, cállate Billy, no era así" dijo Dom.

"Hey, mira para allá Orli" dijo Elijah y yo mire para donde Elijah estaba mirando.

"¡Es Jenn! Necesito hablar con ella" dije, parándome y caminando hacia ella y su amiga.

Lo que dijo Billy era cierto. Jennifer nunca valía la pena. Era ese tipo de chica con mucho dinero: siempre tratando de conseguir lo que ella quería, sin importar nada ni nadie. Y cuando ella lo conseguía y se aburría de eso, lo dejaba. Usaba a los chicos tantas veces como se cambiaba de remera. Pero estaba tan cegado por su cara linda que no podía ver la verdad.

"Jenn, hola" dije y ella volteo mientras su amiga me miraba.

"¡Orlando!" dijo sonriendo. Estaba sorprendido por esto ya que la ultima vez que "hablamos", termino en gritos y malas palabras (todo de su boca, claro) "¿Qué...qué haces aquí?"

Summary: Robert is finally finding the roles he like, his career is taking a new direction. But what happens when his personal life is almost breaking? He'll have to make some choices.

Chapter 1

My cell phone rang. I opened my eyes and noticed it was 9 am. I yawned and answered it with a lazy, "Hello?"

"Hey you!"

"Oh, Craig, hey" I said, trying not to yawn again.

"Did I wake you up?"

"No, no you didn't" I lied to my manager Craig, "So...tell me..."

"Oh, yeah. Well I have you some new stuff"

"New stuff?" I said, opening my eyes "You mean...a script??"

"Yes, my dear friend" Craig said, he was probably smiling on the other side of the line.

"That's...that's awesome!"

"Yes, it is. Well, meet me at Starbucks at 2:30, ok? So I can tell you everything"

"Sure" I said, and hang up.

This was the best news of the whole week. First of all, I couldn't sleep well lately. Maybe because I've been nervous: I couldn't find a good script, I wanted to be acting again, then my apartment...God, the rent...now I know what it's like!

I spent the rest of the morning going to the grocery store, trying to "arrange" the apartment, and then left to meet with Craig.

"Boy, finally!" Craig said, standing up from his chair, he probably thought I was late. Craig was those crazy managers: horrible sun glasses, ridiculous clothes. But he was still a good man.

"Hey Craig," I said, shaking his hand in a manly way, "So, tell me!"

"Yeah, I imagine you're dying to know" he said, reaching something in his bag; probably the script "Here" he said, placing lots of papers in front of me.

"Wow...it's pretty big" I said, passing the pages.

"Yeah, but it's good stuff" Craig said "The producers of the movie are good, the only thing is that it's a new director, and two brothers in college wrote the script"

"Good combination," I joked.

"You have to tell me before Tuesday, alright?"

"Alright" I said.

I spent the rest of the afternoon reading the script. It really was good stuff and I was happy that something good finally came.

The phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hey love" and I smiled. That was Amber.

"Hello, beautiful" I said "How are you?"

"I'm fine, you?"

"Happy. Good news: Craig brought me a script!" I said.

"Really??!! Rob, that's awesome!" she said, and I could bet that she had a huge smile on the other side of the line. Yep, that's my girlfriend: always happy for me.

"It is!" I said "So I was thinking that maybe we could go out. You know, to celebrate."

"Sounds good to me."

First story :D
I have to say that this must be one of the first decent stories I've ever written, and in another board got good replies, so I hope you enjoy it :)

Author: Julieta.

Rating: PG-13

Disclaimer: I do not own Orlando Bloom or any famous in this story. I do not own the lyrics that maybe appear in this story, they belong to their respective bands/singers. I do own the fictional characters.

Summary: Orlando lives the typical Hollywood life: he goes out with celebrities, has a big house, dates a model. Everything. But when he discovers the truth, two different girls will help him to live the life in a different way.

Chapter 1

The night was young, and all the people were lining up to enter some famous club. My friends and I were sitting in the VIP room, chatting and having a great time...

"So...where's Jennifer?" Elijah asked me.

"She...she broke up with me," I said, looking down.

"WHAT?! You didn't tell us!" Dominic said, really surprised by the news that I was giving them.

"Yeah. It was like two days ago."

"But...why?" Dom asked.

"She says I'm irresponsible, that I'm too busy to be with her. That my love isn't enough," I said as I sipped a bit of my drink.

"No, seriously?" Elijah said.

"Yeah. That's what she said," I said "Man, I love her. I really do. I care about her, even if I'm so damn busy."

"We know, we know..." Dom said.

"I don't wanna sound rude or anything, but I guess you're better off alone than with her," Billy said and all of the guys stared at him "I mean...when you were with her...she treated you really badly. Like you were her dog."

"Oh, shut up Billy, it wasn't like that." Dom said.

"Hey, look over there Orli," Elijah said and I looked towards the people Elijah was looking at.

"It's Jenn! I need to talk with her" I said, standing up and walking towards her and her friend.

What Billy said was right. Jennifer doesn't care about anything, not even me. She's that type of rich girl: always trying to get what she wants, no matter what. And when she gets it and is bored of it, she leaves it. She's gone through as many guys as the number of times she's changed her t-shirts. But I was so blinded by her pretty face that I couldn't see the truth.

"Jenn, hey," I said, and she turned back as her friend stared at me.

"Orlando!" she said smiling. I was surprised by this because the last time we 'talked', it ended in yells and curses (all from her mouth, of course) "What...what are you doing here?"

Helloo!! And welcome!
