The atmosphere on set is thick with a heavy, manufactured tension, the blinding heat of the studio lights casting long, sharp shadows across the floor. As Dior and Walker slide into their positions, the air seems to hold its breath. Then, the script's promised scream erupts—a raw, ear-splitting shriek that shatters the silence. The shock hits you like a physical blow, and a startled "Fucking hell!" rips from your throat, echoing loudly against the maze of cables and heavy rigging. Through the lingering ringing in your ears, you catch Charlie's gaze. He's watching you, a suppressed grin twitching at the corners of his mouth, his brown eyes dancing with amusement as he waits for you to realize you've been caught.
