One Wild Night

While Sonia and Bryan were busy with their final shoot outdoor, her phone kept buzzing.

They had all unanimously agreed to have the final shoot outdoors since Bryan's ankle had healed considerably and he could get on and off his wheelchair and walk short distances.

The shoot was supposed to be done in several places. One scene at the beach, another at a Jewelry shop which he was endorsing, another at a game lounge and cinema, and the last at a restaurant where they would be wrapping it up.

So they were at the game lounge playing some of the games they had played the last time, the only difference was that this time Bryan was teaching her how to play the snooker game, and maybe it was because of the camera crew, everyone recognized them and some gathered to look at them.

"Let's take a short break," Mia whispered to Jeff and the producer, feeling the need to hand Sonia her phone. Seeing how several people had called her already, she felt like something was up, and Sonia needed to take her phone.

"Why?" The producer asked with his eyes fixed on Bryan and Sonia.

"They probably need a break. Let's have a five minutes break. I really need to stretch my legs too," Jeff said when he saw the concern on Mia's face. He could tell that she was worried about something.

"Alright," the producer murmured in displeasure, not liking the interruption.

"Cut! Let's take a break," he called out to the crew, and immediately they stopped filming.

Sonia and Bryan turned off their mic, and Bryan lowered himself to his wheelchair which Jeff rolled over, and Mia walked over to join them and handed Sonia her phone.

"Your cell phone has been ringing all morning," Mia informed Sonia, whose brows furrowed immediately as she checked her call log.

She hardly received a call unless it was from clingy exes, her editor, or Lucy. Seeing missed calls from Lucy's mom and Lucas made her even more worried. And once she saw Lucy's text message she immediately dialed Lucy's line, "I'll be right back," she murmured to Bryan as she walked away to find a quiet spot to talk.

Bryan watched her with concern as she left, "Do you have any idea about what is happening?" He asked Mia.

"I don't know. But I don't think it has anything to do with the both of you. I checked the internet to see if there was a scandal, but I didn't see anything. By the way, your brother's personal assistant is trending all over social media," Mia informed him in passing.

"My brother's personal assistant? Why is she trending?" Bryan asked with a frown as he glanced at where Sonia was standing with her phone pressed to her ear. Although she was standing with her back to him, from the way she stood stiffly he could tell that she was upset by whatever she was hearing. He knew that they were supposed to give both Tom and Lucy a call the previous day but they had been too engrossed with themselves to do so.

Mia took out her phone and once she opened the page, she handed it to him, "Murder?" Bryan asked with a frown. This wasn't good at all. Although he didn't know the exact details, he was certain that Sonia did. Was this about her family which she had mentioned to him?

Needing to find out what was going on, he dialed Tom's line immediately. Lucy was his brother's girlfriend after all, and he needed to know what was going on and make sure they were both alright.

"What? Who did something as hateful as that?" Sonia asked angrily the moment Lucy finished explaining the details to her.

"I don't know. I'm suspecting Anita, but then again she called earlier pretending not to know what was going on," Lucy said with a sigh.

"That bitch! I'm going to scratch out her eyes if I set my eyes on her," Sonia promised, and then took in a deep breath when she realized that she should be consoling Lucy instead of getting angry.

"How are you feeling, Lu?" She asked in concern.

"How else can I feel?" Lucy asked with a dry laugh, "Anyway, I called for something different. I want to make a video that I would upload on social media, and I might mention you in it. I hope you don't mind?" Lucy asked, making Sonia frown.

"Why would I mind?" She asked in confusion.

"You know you're a celebrity now, and you're dating one. I don't want anything that would..."

"Fuck all of that, Lu! You come first! I always tell you that but I don't know if you just do not listen, or you don't get it. You are all the family I have, and I'm always with you," Sonia assured her.

Lucy felt her throat clog with emotion. Although she had never openly admitted it to either Sonia or herself, she still harbored some sort of guilt that if not for her Sonia would still have her family.

Maybe if she had handled things differently she wouldn't be the only person closest to a family that Sonia had. If she had known that the police would show up that day she would have just continued to let Jamie do all he was doing, and let the police handle it. Then he wouldn't have died. His parents and most people wouldn't have accused her of murder, and Sonia wouldn't have been cut off from them before their death.

"What kind of video do you want to make, and why?" Sonia asked, cutting into Lucy's thoughts.

Lucy took in a deep breath and let it out, "I should at least let everyone hear my side of the story. They should only judge me after knowing the truth," Lucy murmured.

"Will you be okay doing that?" Sonia asked with a worried frown. This was something she had never talked about, and then even when she talked about it with Tom, she had gone into shock halfway into her story. How was she going to make such a video then?

"I don't know. I will have to be okay. Whoever did this doesn't want me to be okay, so I have to be okay," Lucy explained.

"I will join you in the video then. I have to make sure that you're fine," Sonia offered.

Although Lucy would rather have Sonia with her than her family, she knew that Sonia was busy, "You shouldn't. You are with Bryan, and then there's the shoot. Besides, what if people don't believe my side of the story? Associating with me might affect your..."

"Shut the fuck up! I'm coming over," Sonia hissed at her and hung up.

"Okay! Time up, let's resume!" The producer announced, but Sonia ignored him as she walked up to where Bryan was seated with a worried look on his face.

"I'm leaving.. I need to be with Lucy," she informed him.
