movie he was cast in. “Anna, Dylan…he’ll be your knight in shining armor for the next, few months.”
     
    “Pleasure to meet you,” said the svelte woman before him, smiling end exposing her rows of pearly whites. “I must say you look much better in person.”
     
    “Great to meet you as well,” he said in return, taking her hand for a quick handshake.
     
    After they were introduced to all the cast and crew members, Dylan and Anna joined a few of their co-stars to get to know one another better. He was excited to film the movie since the plot revolved around a group of fresh graduates maneuvering the real world outside of university. It was to be a lighthearted, just-for-laughs film, so he knew he was going to have a grand time shooting.
     
    “Hey man, nice to see you again,” said another one of their co-stars who Dylan was already friends with from a couple years back. “Long time no see!”
     
    “Yo! What have you been up to?” Dylan then said, giving him a handshake all men seemed to know by heart.
     
    The cast members then spent the rest of the day hanging out in each other’s trailers. A few of them had already pulled a few pranks on their co-stars even. If the first day was any indication of the remaining months of filming, then everyone was in for a ride. At present, they were raiding the buffet tables and stuffing their mouths with all things fried and crispy. The conversation lulled, and Dylan found himself playing with his phone. His finger hovered over Cassie’s name in his list of contacts.
     
    When she had told him a few months back to keep in touch, he knew she was only being cordial. Keeping in touch while they were attracted to one another felt awkward. If she were another girl, Dylan wouldn’t have a problem just flirting, and sexting even, but Cassie was different from other women. She was sensible enough to listen to her mind rather than emotions, and Dylan realized a month after that night that Cassie had been right. Looking back, he realized she made the right decision. They were still in the stage of getting to know one another that tying themselves down could highly result to the end of their relationship. As his eyes stayed glued to her name on the screen, he couldn’t control the desire to message her. After all these months, he still constantly thought about her.
     
    ‘Hey Cassie.’
     
    Before he could take it back, he had pressed the ‘Send’ button. Now that he opened up the door they closed a few months back, a surge of excitement filled him. He had drowned out the muffled voices of the people around him, and in the moment, his fingers flew over the screen of his phone.
     
    ‘I miss you.’
     
    He looked at the message, feeling like his eyes were about to fall out of their sockets for staring too long and hard. He wanted to send it, but at the same time, he felt more scared than ever.
