Half an hour later, Jet was entering the party, followed by her tall companion. They parted soon after with a soft touch of their hands before heading towards their respective groups.
"Jet, hey, I'm so glad you still showed up. We were worried that Rhett had stolen you away." Leslie smiled as she approached.
"What? Of course not. He was just kind enough to walk around with me a little bit. It was nice." Jet tried to seem surprised, but she was pretty sure that was the last thing that her face was conveying.
Leslie made her way towards her and led her over towards the drink table.
"Listen, it's not really my business to say anything, but he is totally into you. I mean the looks he was giving you at dinner, damn girl. I think you have a real shot at him if you're interested." She gossiped like a teenager girl towards Jet and she couldn't help but smile as she formulated how to respond.
"I think I might be. He's pretty hot huh?"
"Uh...yea...if I wasn't taken, I'd want to see what he was hiding in those pants. I mean did you see his hands? I bet he's huge everywhere." Jet blushed a little, thinking to herself how she already knew that Leslie was spot on with that one.
"Who knows, maybe I'll see what he's up to after the party." Jet tried to play things off a little.
"I thought when you wanted to get some air that maybe you were going to get a little taste of him before you got here." She laughed a little and handed Jet a glass of champagne. There must have been something that crossed Jet's face then because Leslie's face completely fell and she froze.
"Oh. My. God. You didn't? Jet?" Jet smiled a little and her cheeks burned.
"What?" She was desperately trying to play this off.
"What did you do with him?"
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Dish...please...come on we're friends now, especially after you've seen me naked doing everything I did for the movie. You know I won't tell anyone, not even Thanh."
"We may have hooked up a little before we left the awards dinner."
"Hooked up? Give me more than that, come on."
"Let's just say that you are 100% right about what he's hiding in those pants." Jet raised an eyebrow and took a sip of her drink.
"I'm so insanely jealous right now, and I totally can't believe it. Aren't you dating that girl...what's her name? Janice?"
"Jane and we're barely dating. I mean she's so flaky, who the hell knows."
"How's the champagne ladies?" At that moment, Link spoke behind them and they both turned around with shocked looks on their faces.
"It's uh..." Rhett came into view to his side with a questioning look on his face aimed at Jet. She wondered how much either of them had heard of her conversation with Leslie and it mortified her. "It's not bad. I don't think there's an actual bar in this place, so..." Jet made eye contact with the tall man and smiled lightly.
"Yea, we haven't found a bar either. Basically everybody's just chatting. You know we were talking about it, and we were thinking maybe you guys would want to team up on things. Rhett loved your movie and now that we met you, well you seem pretty cool. I think a collab might work. So, I thought we'd catch you before people left." Link spoke and Rhett stood next to him smiling, his eyes seemed locked on Jet.
"I'm down for it, but I'm just an actress. If you wanted a script written, Jet is incredible as you know, and Charlie is just phenomenal." Leslie looked up with a grin as Charlie came over.
"Hey fellas, what's going on?" Charlie had already had more than a few drinks as he sauntered up with his wife.
"Not much, just talking with the ladies about a collab for all of us. Rhett cannot stop raving about your film." He looked at the larger man.
"Yea, it really touched me and I think it would be incredible to work on something all together." Rhett chimed in.
"Which one of you usually writes, because that would be the first step is seeing if you can convince Jet to get together and write something. Although, I have to warn you, most of what she writes is explicit." Charlie was free-flowing with information as the alcohol coursed through him.
"Well, we have been looking at doing some dramatic work, maybe you and I could work out a script together." Rhett turned to her.
"It could happen. I'll have to give you my number after this." Jet smiled at him softly.
"Here, just give it to me now and then we won't forget." Rhett walked around to her and handed her his phone. On the screen was a new contact started with the name 'Jet - The Incredible.' She caught her lip and looked up at him before tapping on the screen and starting to type in her phone number.
"There, now you have it. Just message me and I'll have yours. But, I think we all come as a package deal, because it was amazing to work with these guys." Jet smiled at them and tipped back her drink.
Jett's phone buzzed with a message. She looked down and it was from Rhett. The words nearly made her cough up the champagne that she just downed.
'Are you still wet from earlier? Can you feel my cum in your panties?' Jet knew she was blushing as she looked up at Rhett who had a smile on his face.
"If you'll excuse me, I need another glass." Jet gave everyone a grin and walked back over to the drink table.
Jet grabbed a drink, and was stopped on her way back by a handsome dark haired man.
"Hi, I'm Chester. I saw you getting the award for best script and I had to say hello. I loved the dialogue in your film." Jet got caught by his brown eyes suddenly. He had incredibly long lashes and it was enough to captivate her for a second.
"Hi, Jet. I'm very flattered thank you." Her phone buzzed in her clutch as she spoke and Jet ignored it although she couldn't help the thought that it was Rhett and she was dying to know what he had to say.
"Can I ask you what made you write such an open and revealing script? I mean it takes a lot of guts to really put yourself out there if it was autobiographical, but I don't want to presume it was or anything." Jet couldn't help but focus in on Chester. He really was very handsome and to see him so interested in her work made her feel good.
"You know I write explicit stuff a lot, and I read a bunch too. So, I just kept noticing that all the stories I saw written by men just weren't capturing what was going on in the light I understood. So, I guess I just sat down and wrote what I thought."
"Wow. I mean don't get me wrong the directing and acting were incredible, but the words, just blew me away. I know this is a little forward, but I was wondering if maybe you and I could have lunch sometime. I would love to really dig in and ask some questions about certain pieces and about your process." Jet felt like she was dreaming. Here she was in the midst of some type of hot love tryst with one man and another was practically asking her out. What the hell was going on?
"Here, let me get your number and I'll text you so you'll have mine. Then, you can just message me to set something up and we'll get together." Jet took her phone from her purse and moved it to her messages. "Give me one second, looks like I have a message..." She clicked on Rhett's message so it would come up and felt her cheeks flush instantly.
'Naughty girl, talking to him when you have sex glow on your face from me. I should come over there and spank you.'
"Oh sorry, what's the number?" Chester rattled it off and she typed it in sending him a quick hello.
"By the way, I'm hoping it might be kind of a date if we get together. I'm not sure if you're seeing anyone or not..."
"No one serious and I'd love to go out sometime." Jet figured whatever was happening with Rhett was likely to be a one night fling anyways, so why not hedge her bets.
"Great. Well, hey, I'm going to let you get back to what you were doing, but it was absolutely my pleasure to meet you Jet and congratulations on your award.
"Thank you Chester and I'm sure I'll see you again."
"Let's make it soon, huh?" He gave her an incredible smile and walked off as Jett made her way back towards her friends.
"Was that Chester Amsley?" Leslie asked her instantly when she came back.
"I didn't catch his last name, but he did say Chester." Jet smiled back at her.
"He is big on TV and only getting bigger. I heard he was cast in some pretty high profile film that is scheduled to start shooting later this year." Thanh chimed in.
"Yea and he's gorgeous. Did you get his number?"
"I did, and I think he actually asked me out." Jet looked up to catch Rhett's face with an eyebrow raised.
He pulled his phone up and sent a message. A moment later, Jet heard her phone go off. She didn't even go for it, instead just trying to get back into the conversation a little more.
"Oh, there's Lou. We should go say Hi." Link grabbed Rhett's shoulder and made a motion towards the other side of the room. He nodded towards the group and he and Rhett walked off.
