Episode 30


All the girls woke up the next morning deliriously happy.  Aislinn, being the sweet person she is, was super excited for both of her roommates.  Caitlin was on cloud 10 (way above cloud 9) because David had asked her for her number yesterday and they were going out on an official date tomorrow night, doubling with Kelsey and Tom.  Kelsey finally had her first official boyfriend, finally, and, to celebrate them being public and official, Tom was taking her to the set of The Avengers to give her the grand tour and let her meet all his co-stars and other cast members.  Needless to say, Kelsey was unable to contain her excitement.  She was practically bouncing off the walls.  Watching her, her roommates noticed 3.5 complete outfit changes, 4 different hairstyles, and countless variations on accessories all in the one morning while she waiting impatiently for Tom to arrive.  Finally, the long awaited knock sounded at the door and Kelsey gave herself a quick final glance in the mirror.  She was wearing her bright red skinny jeans with a Loki T-shirt (obviously) and had her hair partially pulled back.  She was wearing light make-up that emphasized her eyes – she looked cute and summery.  She calmly answered the door and Tom immediately pulled her into a close embrace. “I missed you.” He muttered against her hair.  She felt her heart speed up as she replied,
“I really missed you too!  I’m excited to spend the entire day with you.”  He smiled and took her hand. It was a short ride (or at least it seemed short to Kelsey, but then time always seemed to go by super fast whenever Tom’s magnificence was near).  Arriving at the set of Kelsey’s most-loved movie series of all time nearly killed the poor girl due to excessive excitement.  “Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh!!!!” Kelsey squeaked out.  Tom gave her a look at the strange high-pitched noise emanating continuously from Kelsey’s mouth.
“Don’t hyperventilate, darling!” he admonished in an amused tone.  They proceeded to watch a couple scenes from the upcoming movie (those that did not involve Tom’s character, obviously – please note: for copyright reasons these scenes cannot be described in this story. Apologies.).  Then Tom turned to Kelsey with a mischievous gleam in his eyes.  “Kelsey?” he asked imploringly.  She immediately narrowed her eyes at him, suspicious.
“Yes…?”
“Will you be an extra in one of the scenes?”  He smiled convincingly and Kelsey felt herself melt.   Without any conscious agreement, Kelsey found herself sitting in a make-up tent being fussed over by a hair stylist and various other bossy women pulling at her hair and dabbing goop onto her face.  Tom came in to get her half an hour later.  He entered the tent and then stopped dead.  “Kelsey.  You look…SEXY…to say the least! That is the only word to describe this…”  Kelsey smiled self-consciously, but did not return the compliment as he was in full Loki-mode and looked creepy (well, creepier than usual).  The scene passed in a blur of excitement – all Kelsey could really remember was standing next to the gigantic build of Chris Hemsworth (he brushed against her arm!!!! Swoon!!!) and following the directives of her idol, Joss Whedon, as to where to walk and stand.  She nearly fainted (aka “tripped”) the first time he spoke to her directly.  She ended up with a good thirty seconds of screen time!  Tom came by afterwards and then they walked to his car, hand-in-hand.
