productivity100 (#10) Bella - Character
It had been so long since she could play her.
At first she felt it was a given, after all those years of collaboration, she needed a break, a real one, but now, she saw the situation differently.
As she slept once again in Bella’s skin she could feel how much she missed it, how much she missed being this girl.
It was a big day for her, her wedding. It was an accomplishment after so much trouble.
The script said “her eyes watered with emotion” but the tears that came aren’t because she is an actress, it’s because she is proud of the girl.
(#13) Bones - Dice
For them, life was like a game.
She started playing when she decided to break up with Michael. She couldn’t have known if her relationship with Rob would be successful. She just took a leap of faith; she was letting go of something stable for something that, maybe, could be better.
He didn’t exactly play with his life, he played with hers and it was much more risky. He knew he could break the only thing providing her with stability, he could break her heart and he could ruin her life. In spite of everything he pursued her because he could feel it in his bones, this feeling.
Later they found out what it was: sometimes, life is just a game and if you don’t play, you can’t win.
(#14) Bounce - Bed
Weirdly enough, Kristen had a lot of difficulty being annoyed by Rob. However he had the most bothering habits, things she would have killed Michael for. Like putting his dishes on the counter top and never in the dishwasher or stuffing all of his socks under the bed for her to find when she was vacuuming, but no, she would scream a bit and then he would give her his panty-dropping smile and, just like that, her irritation would disappear.
But this would not be omitted. Bouncing on the bed to wake her up a Sunday morning because he was bored was just too far.
He had the bitch face treatment for three days after this little stunt.
(#17) Camellia - La Dame aux Camélias
Of course he was thrilled that she chose him, how could he not?
But for weeks he couldn’t shake this feeling of dread. Was she in this as much as he was?
He had loved her for years already, for him it wasn’t new; it wasn’t the passion of the first weeks. He had time to grow the sentiment, to know it by heart, for him it was it, she was the one, no question. He knew she wasn’t there and he was scared, she would never be.
Then, one day, her little hand slid into his while they were with his family and she murmured, “I want to be here, always”.
(#19) Capitol - The West Wing
They shared a lot, they were best friends after all, but most of those things had come from Rob. Rob had played the guitar with her, Rob had made her discover Van Morrison, Rob had introduced her to the joys of the 69 position. She wanted to make him discover something that was hers.
She was watching an episode of The West Wing when he thrown himself on the sofa next to her.
“What are you watching?”
She straightened up and stared at him.
“You don’t know The West Wing?”
“No.”
“Oh it’s going to be so good!” she squealed.
And there it was, their new tradition, the “The West Wing Tuesday”.
