Hollywood Ending Part 9
At the age of 15 Jason Donowitz went to Hollywood to pursue his dreams at acting, leaving behind his friends, family, and his first love. 5 years later and Jason now 'JD' has become a teen heart-throb and house-hold name. Pursued by screaming fans and casting directors alike he seems to have left his old life behind..........until a chance encounter changes everything.
JASON'S POV:
The soft touch of Emma's fingers across my chest woke me, I looked at her and smiled.
"Hey."
"Hey yourself." I leaned over and kissed her, still thrilled that I could again.
"You're still here." She said it as though she had expected me to have run away without a backwards glance.
"I told you I would be here and I am, I'm never going to leave you Emma, not again."
She leaned across my chest and kissed me, I loved the feeling of her bare skin against my chest, I ran my hands up her back. Reveling in the feel of her warm skin, satin smooth against my fingertips. Shifting her slightly so she lay on top of me, I deepened the kiss wanting to keep holding her like this forever.
The sharp ring of my phone brought us back to reality, with a soft groan of disappointment she pulled away and laid her head on my chest as I reached across and answered it.
"Hello?"
"Jason? What the hell did you do? The tabloids are going insane with this new 'exclusive' interview that some nosy reporter got. Where on earth did they get the idea that you were interested in some girl from your old life?"
"Woah. Mack calm down, the tabloids are right, I did tell that reporter that I was crazy about Emma."
"Wait, Emma? Isn't she that girl from your old life?" I was getting annoyed with this whole 'old life' thing, did he think that I was re-incarnated or something?
"Yes she is, and I'm happy with her, look I'll talk to you later ok?" I cut him off without waiting for a reply, I didn't need him to ruin what was probably the best morning of my life.
"What was all that about?" Emma's voice was soft and husky from sleep (or the lack of it), as she lifted her head from my chest.
"Just Mack trying to confuse my life again."
"Oh."
I pulled her closer, desperate to just hold her. I don't know how long we lay like that, only that it wasn't until Emma's jeans started ringing that we pulled apart. She hurriedly got up to retrieve it but did a double take and grabbed my shirt when she realized she was still naked.
"Hello?"
I could hear the high pitched voice from the bed it was so shrill with worry.
"Emma? Where have you been? Are you alright? Where are you?"
"Calm down mum I'm fine, I'm um at Jason's and we were talking till really late and I guess I fell asleep."
"Jason?"
"Jason Donowitz, you know? He's an um old friend. "
"Jason? Wait wasn't he the one that left for America"
"Um yeah."
" Well at least it is someone you know. So long as you're safe, but in future I would really appreciate it if you would call and tell me, I've been so worried."
"I'm sorry mum, I promise that next time I'll call, ok? I'll be home soon."
"Ok Emma, see you soon."
She disconnected the phone and began pulling on her clothes.
"So I take it that you have to go now?" She looked sheepish, she turned around to take off my shirt and pull on her jeans and underwear. I let her get her bra on before I grabbed her and pulled her back down onto the bed, pinning her beneath me.
"I don't want you to go." I murmured as I kissed her neck. Her words sounded strained as she replied;
"Um well, maybe not straight away."
I smiled as I rolled her over so she lay on top of me.....
EMMA'S POV;
The moment I walked through the door my mum pounced on me, demanding to know everything that had happened. I knew that she had deliberately held off questioning me on the phone, obviously she had wanted to speak to me in person. I found this a little out of character since she had been so busy, with a few well placed words I got her to calm down and recounted my evening... with a few obvious exceptions.
"Are you sure that you're willing to risk you're heart over this Emma? You're starting University in a few months, your gap year is almost over. And I still feel bad that you had to come with us, on this trip, but you have to go back to Australia eventually what are you going to do then?"
I knew that I should be worried or at the very least feel torn, but I was still too ecstatic over getting back together with Jason that I felt as though nothing in the world could possibly bring me down.
"I know that mum but it's not as though I'm planning on marrying him or anything, we just got back together, and agreed to um take it slow while we get to know each other again." I bit my lip at the lie, after last night I couldn't see us taking it slow in any capacity. "And besides, if push comes to shove and I decide I want to stay with Jason, I can always transfer my course over to a sister college here in America."
"Hmmm, I know about all the possibilities Emma, I'm just worried you'll get hurt again, I was there when you refused to eat or sleep for 3 days, you didn't even say a word, it was the scariest moment of my life. I thought I was losing my little girl." I could see the sadness in her eyes and felt a wave of guilt, I hadn't realized that my pain had affected my family too.
"I'm sorry mum I didn't mean to put you through that, but Jason makes me happy, and I want to be with him more than anything else in the world, he's promised me that he will always be there, and I believe that he isn't going to hurt me I trust him."
"If this is what you want then go for it, just be careful with your heart."
I smiled and pulled her into a hug, blissfully happy that everything was turning out so perfectly.
I pulled away and said I was going to call Jason, already thinking about when I could see him again...

JASON'S POV:
"So,-" I tried again to speak but was interrupted as Emma brought her lips back to mine, effectively scrambling all my thoughts.
"Are you sure that we're not going too fast?" I managed to get out between kisses, she pulled away and looked at me with confused eyes.
"Jason if in case you haven't noticed I am practically sitting in your lap making out with you, I'm not scared or uncomfortable, I am blissfully happy because I am back in your arms after 5 years.I am not about to let a single moment go to waste."-she cupped my face in her hands as she whispered against my lips- " I'm yours Jason."
That shut me up, feeling even more possessive I wrapped my arms more securely around her and brought her even closer to me as I kissed her again. Turning slightly in my embrace she moved so she was literally straddling my legs, feeling intoxicated from her kisses I lost myself in the feel of her against me, relishing every little noise and movement-until the doorbell rang. At first it failed to penetrate my thoughts, still so wrapped up in Emma's embrace, at the second round of shrill ringing, I broke off reluctantly and moved Emma onto the sofa beside me. Smiling at her obvious disappointment I walked out of the living room and into the hallway to go and answer the door. When it opened my smile faded instantly; Mack.
Mack pushed inside the doorway before I could speak and headed straight for the living room.
"Jason, what the hell has gotten into you? You haven't been seen publicly for days, except for one outing where you bought chocolate for god's sake! And the press if having a field day since the only thing they've heard is about some nobody from God knows where who is going to ruin your career!"
"Emma's not a nobody and like hell she's going to ruin my career!" Mack sighed dramatically as he pinched the bridge of his nose.
"You've got to realize that stunts like this are going to ruin it all! I just got off the phone with the producers of Hail Storm they're really excited about you having the part, but they're worried about how you handle public relations. If you just let me guide you Jason, maybe one or two parties and a socialite on your arm at them and we can salvage-"
"MACK!" I interrupted him, I had enough, "I am not going to pretend that Emma means nothing to me! Nor am I going to go to some dumb party with a girl who doesn't have two brain cells to rub together. Either you accept that this is the way I am going to live my life or you can forget about being my agent."
Mack stared at me , shocked speechless by my outburst I had never snapped at him before , ever.
"Fine, but I just hope this girl is worth your career." With an arrogant air he brushed past me and slammed the door as he went. I ran my hand through my hair, this was getting ridiculous, why couldn't he just let me be with Emma? Even when he first started working for me he had told me to forget about Emma anytime I brought her up, then when I got that letter, he was kind he comforted me. And now.... I sighed this was too confusing, all this shouting was giving me a headache. I spun I looked up and my heart sank when I saw Emma leaning against the door jamb. Oh crap. How much of that did Emma hear?
"Well that was interesting." She was smiling, I felt relief curse through me. I walked over to her and wrapped my arms around her waist, I rested my forehead on hers.
"That's just Mack, "I kissed her softly "Do you want to do something tonight?" I asked having a sudden idea.
"Like what? I thought you didn't want to get hounded by the media?" I shrugged, "I would rather go and have dinner with you somewhere.
The soft touch of Emma's fingers across my chest woke me, I looked at her and smiled.
"Hey."
"Hey yourself." I leaned over and kissed her, still thrilled that I could again.
"You're still here." She said it as though she had expected me to have run away without a backwards glance.
