Synopsis

Bonafide Hollywood actor William Knightly first met her in unorthodox way, with her strutting inside the Men's Room like she owned it. It was a red flag, right there. First thing that came to mind was, 'CRAZY FANGIRL'. Then she told him to join her in a cubicle, and said: "All you'll do is stand" This scene was not William's romantic idea of a cute-meet. But what can he do? That was how he met El, the mysterious woman who has a knack for trouble. IG:https://www.instagram.com/vanlauredel/

Chapter 1Prologue

Being two bonafide Hollywood actors, and very good one's at that. The two gentlemen's life is bound to be interesting. In both good ways and bad.

William and Robert had seen a number of crazy fans--but never like this. The woman walked in the Men's Room with urgency and purpose, the look of panic in her eyes they both missed, and they assumed the worst in the situation.

"Hi, this is not what you think." She quipped towards the two men, whose mouths hanged agape. She recognized the two of them, she'd seen their faces printed on magazines, and plastered on billboards. And the hint of fear in their eyes did not go unnoticed by her, making her mentally sigh. She knew what it looked like, she knew she looked like a crazy fan girl walking in the men's bathroom, stalking after two exceptionally good looking and internationally known actors. To do god only knows what crazy fan girls do.

But the two was last in her list, scratch that, the two didn't even make it on her list of concern that day. She had more pressing matters to attend to, than harass two fully grown men twice her size.

Deciding her next course of action, she scanned the room ignoring them completely, searching for an escape route.

Shit. Shit. Shit. El kept muttering mentally, whilst clenching her jaw.

The two men exchanged bewildered looks, "Can we be of assistance?" William asked, unsure. El whipped her head towards him and said, "I believe so, Mr. Knightly. Do you mind?" El asked, pointing to an empty cubicle. William cocked his brow at her in confusion and gave Robert a questioning look. The engaged man, shrugged in reply.

"Anytime now would be great." El insisted, and William walked inside the cubicle as asked, then stood there completely baffled at the woman. The Asian woman, who was 5feet (1.52 m) tall at best, who was too bossy for her youthful face, William thought. "Move a little please." She said, walking in with him still inside.

William looked scandalized, and Robert mirrored his expression. "Oh, do calm down. All you have to do is stand." El said, and the two men mirrored each others appalled expressions.

"Oh!! Not that kind of thing, please. Get your brains out of the gutter, men." She snapped at the two. "Pushy aren't we?" William shot back, a little insulted at her antics, but at the same time finding her a breath of fresh air.

"El ! He's coming!" A feminine voice said from outside the Men's Room door. She closed the cubicle door instantly and crouched on the closed toiletseat cover. While William stood in front of her facing the door. Robert froze there, standing by the sink not knowing what to do.

"You're actors, dang it. Act inconspicuous!" El hissed. A blond man walked in the Men's Room, seemingly searching, and Robert knew exactly who he was looking for. He pretended to wash his hands and said, "Any problem, mate?"

"Nah. Just looking for someone. By any chance did a short Asian woman walked in here?" The man asked, and Robert chuckled in response. "I think I'll notice if one did...in the men's Room." Robert snickered, feigning amusement at the idea.

"I bet." The man replied, but he seemed still unsatisfied. He eyed the cubicle with a close door, and approached it, bending to listen by the door.

"Who's in there?" He turned to ask Robert. "My friend." Robert replied casually. The man was still unconvinced, and so he knocked. "Pardon me?" He said.

"Yeah, yes, sorry--mate kinda busy. " William said behind the door, and El smiled at him appreciatively. And for the first time in their little unconventional meeting he realized how attractive her smile was.

"Yep. Sorry, mate. Thanks." The man replied with a hint of disapointment, turning and leaving immediately. "He's gone." Robert informs, drying his hand with paper towel. El sighs, relieved that he was gone, and walks out after William.

"Thanks, boys. Sorry, for being insufferable and invading your privacy." El says nonchalant. "Who was that? An ex boyfriend?" Robert pries, brow arched in curiosity.

"Nope. That was my Manager." El reveals, washing her hands on the sink. Causing the two to look at each other intrigued. Was she an actress? They both wondered.

"Anywho." El quips before any of them had the balls to ask additional questions. "Thanks again. Enjoy the rest of your evening." El adds, giving the two an appreciative smile and walking out.
