Chapter 18 : She's a little scary.

Justice looked Iris up and down as she walked towards him and tilted his head to the side [ She's gotten taller and why'd she cut her hair? ] but Iris wasn't paying attention to him, instead she glared at Lori as she picked Jeremy up.

" I told you to keep an eye on him ", Lior only laughed nervously " I got distracted ". She looked at Justice mildly [ He looks familiar ] and sighed. " What happened "?

Lior gulped as he approached Iris, " You said something important came up ". Lior nodded in agreement but saw Rachel standing idly by and pointed at her, " I decided to.... let Rachel be in charge of wardrobe ".

Iris only frowned as she stepped on his toe, " I rushed all the way down here so you could say that "? Zuri blinked a few times as she watched Iris pull on Lior's ears [ She's fooling around with the Eye of god so casually and getting away with it ]

Lior had been able to make a name for himself in five years for his vivid imagination and creative genius. All his movies were one of a kind and most critics said it was like being transported into the movie going on the journey with the characters.

Lior only laughed as he caught Iris' hands, " Don't embarrass me in front of the guests ". Iris frowned, trying to get out of his grip " So now I'm embarrassing you? Don't come back to my house ".

Lior laughed playfully, " You wouldn't really throw me out on the streets ". Iris' mouth twitched lightly, " I've being in your mansion, you literally own that street ". Lior only laughed as he hugged her, " Yeah, when will you keep me company ".

Felicity and Jeremy who had been watching finally decided to act. They stood on either side of Lior and kicked his legs. Felicity kicked hard, " Don't even think about it ".

Jeremy nodded, kicking at the same time " You can't take her from us ". Iris laughed and held out her hands for high fives, " You guys are awesome ". Lior sighed as he sat on a couch and rubbed his legs, " As violent as your mother ".

Iris sighed as she looked at Jeremy, " What happened here "? Jeremy shrugged, " Mister Speedwell doesn't want to act in Uncle Lior's movie. He was afraid to tell you ".

Lior frowned, " No I wasn't ". Jeremy rolled his eyes as he sat next to him, " It's okay to admit it ".

Felicity nodded and sat next to him, whispering in his ear " We're all a little scared ". Iris mumbled to herself as she drew the corner of her lip out with her pinkie, " What does this have anything to do with me? I have work to do ".

Justice finally spoke up, " I never said I wouldn't act in it ". Both Jeremy and Lior turned to him sharply, " Really "? Justice nodded and smiled mildly, " Of course, but I have a condition ". Lior nodded, " Anything ".

He couldn't miss the opportunity Iris let him get. But his smile immediately dropped when he heard his condition. He looked at Iris who was mildly looking around the room, " I want the author to have lunch with me. So I can get to know her ".
