narration in the places we can't act it out?" I asked and handed her my copy of the script.
    "Oh sure, don't you need the script?" she took the copy from my hand and I shook my head.
    Noah had followed Brook to the bar and when he came up beside her to set his plate down his hand came up to touch the back of her waist. My eyes narrowed as I watched.  He was saying something to her and she was smiling, and despite my determination to blow it off, it didn't sit well with me.
    Why am I so bloody jealous?  I know she loves me .
    I was still watching them as they came back to the main sitting area and Brook's eyes met mine.  I wondered if she could tell I was irritated.  Her eyebrow rose in question and I averted my eyes.
    "So, how are we going to do this?" Noah wanted to know. “Am I reading the Spencer part?”
    “Just read all the guy parts that aren’t Ryan,” I said. “Since Ethan isn’t here yet.”
    Jennifer sat in one of the chairs at the end of the two sofas and when Brook came to sit on one, Noah followed and plopped down next to her, and scooted closer to her.  She raised her eyes to mine and I realized she knew what I was thinking.
    This would never do. 
    "Okay, no scripts.  Jennifer can prompt if we need it," Brook murmured as she inched slightly away from Noah as I looked on.  I got up and went to the bar to pull another beer from the refrigerator.
    I stopped by where she was sitting and held my hand out to her.  She looked up at my face and I pulled her up and over to the other couch with me.  I moved in closer, flung my arm around her shoulders and kissed her temple before glancing at Noah.
    It was just a subtle message to get my point across.  There will be no life imitating the art of the film... I won't have you pissing on my territory, dog .
    My lips quirked into a grin as I huffed, "Hmmpft," and I could sense Brook's uneasiness as she stiffened beside me. 
    "Let's get started.  Cade, you have the first line," she said.
    The only reason we were rehearsing a scene that wouldn’t be filmed for months was because Martin had confided he wasn’t sure about Curtis and he might recast him if he didn’t like the screen test we were doing the next day. I didn’t like the guy enough to invite him in to rehearse. Sink or swim, it would all be on his acting chops. I wouldn’t stack the deck in his favor. We proceeded with the scene and it went well, even with Noah reading Ethan’s part.
    "You guys are really great. You're nailing it," Jennifer interjected.
     Brook shook her head.  I could tell that she hated the interruption when she was in her zone, but we were at the part where Ryan takes Julia away to the dance floor and that wouldn’t be part of the test. 
    "Okay," Noah broke in. "That's it. It was great.”
    Jennifer threw her script on the coffee table. “I thought that Leah chick was supposed to come over. Where is she?”
    I shook my head and inhaled deeply. “No clue. I’m relieved if you must know.”  I leaned back into the deep cushions of the couch and reached for Brook’s hand.
    "I'm beat, and you don't really need me, do you? You guys did a great job!" She gave Noah and I a hug before Brook walked her to the door.
     Noah turned enthusiastic eyes on me.  "That was incredible, dude.   Should we run it again?"
      Bloody hell! I thought. I wanted to be alone with Brook.  I had to tell her about Wendy's call and how she crashed lunch last week.
     "How do you improve on perfection?" There was always room for improvement, but I wanted him to leave.
    Brook wandered back from the hall and plopped down on the couch.  I could see how tired she was.
    "It’s great working with you guys, but if you're tired, I guess I should go. Cade, should we share a cab or do you have your limo?" Noah asked me.
    "Well, I wasn't going to leave just yet, Noah. Sorry," I responded quietly, my eyes steady on his.
    "Oh, yeah.  Okay.  Well, thanks for the pizza, Brook. You did a good job.  I don't
