Lies I Tell Myself
Feb 10th, 2008
Today was a sodding awful day. The shoot is not going well. There are days when I think that we will never finish this movie. The weather has not cooperated and I have spent the last three days freezing my bollocks off. Then the topper was today: not only does the lead actor never know his lines, but today he decided it was too cold outside and delayed the shoot four hours as he waited for the temperature to rise. It was the last straw for the director. He was ready to throttle him. We are already about two weeks behind in filming and something has to give in order for us to have a chance in hell of catching up. Lately everything seems to get on my last nerve. I sit and watch all this childish behaviour and wonder how people get away with it all.
By the time our star finally graced us with his presence, everyone else was cold and worn out. And he had the nerve to lay into the stylist about his hair! He left her in tears and I had had enough, laying into him and challenging his manhood. The fact that he keeps a boyfriend hidden from the paps had nothing to do with my outburst. Hell, actually, I am sure it did. I am tired of all the lying.
It seems like my whole world is darker right now. Everywhere I seem to look, I have something telling me that Robert and I will not work. And maybe we really don’t mix. But I trust him not to hurt my heart and that is the only thing that gives me the hope that we can make it. We just need to stop all this back and forth and make a commitment to each other. I know that once QI starts, I can count on only four short weeks till Robert flies out to see me and we can have a few months to figure this all out and plan our future. I just do not want to imagine my life without him in it…that would truly be a dark place.
I just feel so disconnected from Robert and I am not sure if he is pulling away, which is a fear I have deep in my heart, or if our jobs have just done everything in the last six weeks to keep us apart. I miss talking to him and I feel adrift without an anchor. It seems so long since we just chatted, about our lives. The short time we do get is filled in with catching up on our day to day life, nothing about where we are as a couple. It is always the same surface discussion and I have no idea what is going on in his head, or in his heart. The distance and doubts should not be so surprising--it generally happens when we are apart, but it has never been this hard. He is the light in my darkness.
A/N: Our next part will mark our 100th fic we have posted! Please head over here and join the celebration!
