Threesomes? So where's our third? Looks like I've got you all to myself.
[ He leers, just a little, knowing she won't like it. But he can't help the quick dark of his eyes down her side. Big tits, bubble butt. Lottie is hot, but, throughout their working relationship, one thing's been made clear: she's not easy.
Billy Hargrove is a study in opposites. He likes easy chicks, but he'll call them out for being sloppy. He values a girl who's a challenge, but he won't ever commit, won't ever go steady. Lottie Person isn't easy, but Billy thinks he knows how she ticks. She's here for the exposure. That's what she's really hungry for, even though the shoot will bring a torrent of Instagram comments ranging from: there's no way queen lottie can stand this guy π€ to omgggg they're fucking, right?? they've definitely fucked! π₯΅ to where does this chick live? get her off my man! (billy dm me plsss πππ) along with a handful of comments appalled he dared to touch the Lottie Person.
Most people need a hobby. But they need their clicks.
His eyes crinkle, just a bit. Hair and makeup will kill him if he whips his shirt off all the way. He'll get oil stains on the fabric and they'll need to edit it out in post. But, he takes the hem of his shirt in hand and raises it up over his abs... as if he were about to keep tugging it up and over his head. ]
You know. Skins. You didn't playβ [ This time, his eyebrow goes up when he looks over her. ] Water polo in high school? Anything?
[ She definitely doesn't like it (there's a little crinkle to her lips, something like a pout when he sizes her up that she quickly smoothsβ he doesn't deserve knowing how he gets on her nerves!!). She doesn't like how she can see how that'd work for him on somebody else, either. He probably practices in the mirror! He probably practices with other girls like, all the time. Even at the gym.
Not like she cares!
The only thing that matters right now is getting in the zone, especially with an influencer like Billy Hargrove. Maybe, specifically, just, Billy Hargrove. He's different from a lot of the people she's partnered with in that Lottie doesn't work with just anybody. Notorious for shooting with just herself, it was a risk to bring him onto that set their very first job. He was a pain but the clicksβ the views, the comments. The traffic to her page. ]
What? [ The virality is always worth it even for the few hate comments (Esther deletes them anyway..). Sometimes, it is worth it to see Billy's abs that he must've fasted for the day before to make them so.. Prominent. This time, she does give him the satisfaction of a longer linger at his example before it registers. Skins like, naked? Skin?? ] No..
[ Should she have? Is water polo or sports or a hobby integral to some kind of.. Good influencer background?? She looks to the side, away from Zendaya and her threesomes, crossing her arms a little tighter as she tries to figure out if he's being real or just messing with her. ]
[ Billy rolls his eyes. ] I played basketball. You know, shirts vs. skins?
[ So why the hell did he bring up water polo?? Becausehe's being a jackass. Because: ] Water polo is one of those rich kid sports. Country club bullshit. Tennis too.
[ He doesn't actually know what to do with his racket, but he figures he can fake it. But it's clear what he means, he's making a whole lot of assumptions about Miss Lottie Person. And why not? Tons of influencers are rich kids who bought enough followers until real ones showed up. Enough faces in this city are nepo kids with credit lines and interior designers to design their Tiktok backdrops. Why not Lottie Person too? ]
Your daddy didn't make you play extra-curriculars?
[ Lottie can't even run well half the time without her asthma flaring up, what makes this guy think she's done tennis? Or Country Club (okay, that was like one time for her mom's thing..)? The phrase rich kid seers hot into her brain and she can connect the dots now, even if nope of it makes sense. Her mouth opens and closes as she hears him, processes all his assumptions, a bit of the playground vitriol in his voice becauseβ ]
My daddyβ ugh, god. [ Which is accurateβ Mother is Mother but Father is Daddy, because he isn't wrong. Lottie isn't rich but she's from a well off family. Enough to support her big sister through some of med school and enough to help Lottie pay for her first starter credit card. ] My high school life is none of your business!
[ (She did no extra-curriculars, except photography and maybe art.)
But then she pauses. Turns away from the board to kind of look at him head on like she's just piecing something together.. Her brows knit delicate beneath her sunglasses. Did he notβ google her? Should she be offended?? (She googled him!) ]
..We're here to work. We're grown-ups being paid to look hot. Okay? Use your basketball knowledge to help us sell these spanks!
