“I am very sure it will indeed be very fun to work alongside you again, dear Jude.” the blonde replied, raising a suggestive eyebrow for a single second.
Izabella, a true actress, put on her best and most natural expression to cover up the smirk she truly wanted to give Jude. There was a secret she and her fellow compatriot shared, one that would make fast-selling, big-buck headlines with tabloids and entertainment media. Back when the old Edenridge was filming and they were merely teens, Jude and Izabella’s chemistry had gone past the screen and onto real life. Though they were careful to always present themselves in public and in front of people as frenemies competing for the title of Edenridge’s best actor/actress, this was also a bit of a front. More often than not, the two English actors had used the excuse of ‘rehearsing’ to sneak off to whichever trailer was closer to be intimate with each other in a ‘friends with benefits’ relationship.
It had all started when the producers had the fantastic idea to pair up Elaine and Roddy in the third season of the beloved teen drama series. Both Jude and Bella had thrown a fit over this: after all, why would they want to play a couple falling in love when in reality all they wanted was to over-shine one another? It took a fair bit of convincing from the producers to convince them that it was a good idea, but the two young actors had finally consented.
Their first rehearsals were a fiasco. Their professional rivalry was far too obvious in their scenes, spilling into the script and ruining the scenes. So they were forced to practice in their trailers together, left alone to sort their issues or at least put them aside for the series’ sake. In a surprising turn of events, Bella found that the more they rehearsed, the more they got closer to each other. It didn’t take long for Bella to become attracted and develop a crush on Jude: with Aisik now gone, there was no one to distract her from just how handsome and talented her co-star was. The feelings turned out to be mutual. And while rehearsing a particularly steamy scene in which Roddy and Lanie were being intimate for the first time, Jude and Izabella had ended up being intimate themselves. This also happened to be Izabella’s first time.
And now here they were, ten years later: playing a married couple in the very show that had brought them together, both single. Yes, Izabella couldn’t wait to see just how fun ‘working’ with Jude would be this time around. She’d keep her fingers crossed to see if they could go back to their old habits; she had missed Jude.
Izabella and Jude were the last ones to exit the set, as their scene had been the last to be shot. Giving her co-star a teasing wink, Bella boarded one of the golf carts and was on her way to the nearby hotel that would be housing them for the duration of the filming. Her golf cart driver took another route contrary to the one taken by rest of her cast members (on Bella’s security team’s request to ensure her utmost safety), so she was unable to interact with the fans in the same way they did. Because of this she arrived at the hotel in a relatively short time, and once in the comfort of her assigned suite she created a Whatsapp group for the Edenridge cast and sent out an invitation:
Hello, darlings! If any of you are as hungry as I am, I’ll be having dinner in about a half hour at Giuliano’s (the hotel’s Italian restaurant) if anyone wishes to join me. I hope to see any of you there!
