Jenny and Sam were sitting in her trailer going over which camera to use for the next scene when Nikki burst through the door.

“Jenny can we please talk” Nikki pleaded.

“Thanks Sam” Jenny looked at the DP and smiled.

“Sure, I’ll ask Tina about getting an extra camera and then we’ll be set” Sam smiled at Jenny then got up to leave.  “Hey” she grinned at Nikki as she moved passed her.

“Hey” Nikki smiled back at Sam as she moved to let her go out the door.  “I’m sorry” she said to Jenny as soon as the door shut “how many times do I have to apologize?”

“You can stop apologizing because it’s getting really annoying” Jenny crossed her legs as she dismissed Nikki’s plea.

“I can’t stop apologizing because you won’t talk to me” Nikki went to sit next to Jenny.

“I spoke to you today” Jenny recalled.

“You told me try to make it look like I was really cutting myself with the razor blade” Nikki reminded Jenny of the bathroom cutting scene they just shot.

“Well” Jenny shook her head in reasoning “I am the director and as the director I’m required to coach the actors during the scenes in order to really bring it out.”

“My agents are trying to keep me in the closet” Nikki pleaded.

“That’s because you’re young and the new face in Hollywood” Jenny nodded as she wiped off invisible lint from the arm of the couch.  “Nikki, you and I just don’t fit.  I’m out and you’re not.  To make matters worse, you can’t come out” she laughed at the dilemma “because you’re the hot new thing in Hollywood now, and even though gay people make up half of the industry not mention, direct a lot of these breeders on how to dress and act, it’s still not cool to be out in young Hollywood.”

“I just want to be with you Jenny” Nikki was almost in tears.

“Oh cut it out Nikki, you have the libido of high school quarter back” Jenny looked at her disbelievingly “you’d fuck Shane if she came on to you.”  Nikki only bowed her head in submission “If you’re worried about your part in the movie, don’t.  We’re too close to the end of production to make any drastic changes like change the lead.”
