Author's note: I have revised the story and cut out the spelling and grammer mistakes, and corrected the wrong X-Men facts so it should be a better read. I still think Ellen Page will be the next big young actress, kind of like Hilary Duff, Olsen Twins and Lindsay Lohan. Except for we won't need to wait for her to turn 18, she's 19. So I thought I'd be the first one to get in there and write a story about her. Hope you all enjoy. Also just for your own personal information, all the facts on X-Men and Ellen page's career in this story is all true, the meeting her and screwing her isn't.
------------------------------
"Yo' dude, you going to the X-Men 3 premiere?" Jimmy asked.
"We've already been to two today." Janine complained. I had to agree. We had been to two screenings today. Jimmy wanted to become a script writer and had already written three scripts. He wanted to try and get a script off the ground, so he decided that the Cannes Film Festival was the best place to meet Hollywood producers and get them interested. He was lucky that he had a rich father, who was a lawyer and managed to get four tickets from a client. And naturally, Jimmy chose to take his girlfriend, Janine and his two best friends, me and Tony.
"Hey, I'd love to see X-Men 3!" Tony said. "Anna Paquin is just too fine! And Halle Berry and Famke Janssen are in it too. Some major ass in one movie!"
"You know, it's not a porno and if you start jerking off, they probably will throw you out." I made fun of him and the other two laughed.
"What about you two?" Jimmy asked.
"Please..." Janine begged. "Say no. I don't want to go see X-Men." She really hated the big action movies. She was more into the teen flicks, romantic comedies and foreign movies.
"I don't feel like going." I said to Janine's delight. Honestly, I thought X-Men was great, but found it a little slow and too long. I'm not one to sit still for a long time and thought it was more of a DVD movie for me.
"Let's go get something to eat." Janine said kissing Jimmy good bye and then turning to me and dragging me by the hand, the four of us paired off and went our separate ways. I followed Janine, her still holding my hand but a step ahead of me. I admired her body from behind and if the truth be told, I met her first. I introduced her to my friends and took too long to make my move and Jimmy got in there first. Jimmy didn't know how I felt about her, if he did, he would've backed off. Janine saw me more as a friend than anything else now, so that put the prospect of anything happening between us, ever, out of the question.
We spent the next hour hanging out at a cafe. Things were going great between us and she was flirting with me a lot. She started to touch me and I saw that as a sign, so I made my move and kissed her. It was a short kiss and once I broke it she acted like I had a disease. She made an excuse and got the hell away from me as fast as she could. That was probably the end of our friendship and most likely she was gonna tell Jimmy. That's two friendships in one day, I was doing quite well. Now all I had to do was find a way to end my friendship with Tony, maybe if I told him I was gay.
Any way, all jokes a side I think today was going to be the worst day ever, even worse than the day Janine told me she slept with Jimmy, which like any good relationships was the first thing that happened between the two of them. I sat at the cafe, now on the stool at the counter. No point sitting at a table by myself. Apart from a couple in the back was empty. Probably because everyone was at the X-Men screening.
The door opened. I looked over to see a young girl walk in. She had a black skirt up to her knees and a white top, but the front of it was green. She had brown hair tied up and had slightly pale skin, like Avril Lavigne but with a hint of a tan. Probably from being out in this heat. She took a seat beside me and ordered a decafe coffee.
"Not a fan of X-Men?" I asked.
"I've already seen it." She replied.
"Isn't this the first ever showing of the movie?"
"I'm in the movie." She smiled. "I play 'Shadow Cat.'"
"Yeah right!" I did not believe her for a second. "And I play Colossus."
"No you didn't! Daniel Cudmore was Colossus." The person at the counter placed her drink in front of her. "Thanks!" She said, picking up the cup by the handle.
"You might wanna wait a bit, they're pretty hot." I told her and she put the cup down. She turned to face me and smiled. "Isn't this the last X-Men movie." I said sipping my espresso.
"Well... with a movie like X-Men, the comic is so long there could easily be another 3-6 movies." She said. I still wasn't buying that she was in it.
"Doesn't Katie Stuart play Shadow Cat?"
"She did in the last one, but she didn't want to do this one." I don't know if she was telling the truth. Sumela Kay played Shadow Cat in the first one and didn't come back for the second, I guess Katie Stuart could've done the same. Besides, Shadow Cat was an insignificant character in the first two movies, don't know if she had a bigger role in X-Men 3 as I hadn't seen it. But if she was still insignificant, why would she lie about playing a minor character.
"What else have you done?" I asked.
"I have another movie called 'Hard Candy' coming out this year."
"Hold on a sec. You're in 'Hard Candy?' The one about a 15 year old girl meeting a guy on the internet and going psycho?" I started to recognise her face from the movie trailer.
"Yep! That's me!" She laughed.
"That would make you Ellen..."
"Page." She cut me off. "That's me. When I tell you I'm in X-Men, you don't believe me. But when I tell you I'm in 'Hard Candy,' you know exactly who I am." Ellen took her first sip of her coffee. "So how have you heard about me being in 'Hard Candy?'"
"My friend's into movies big time, he's a script writer. Me and my friends are into the whole independent movie scene." Ellen took another sip of coffee.
"I didn't catch your name." She said.
"It's Kash."
"I'm Ellen." She said extending her hand. I reached out and shook it. "Pleased to meet you."
"Like wise." I said. We carried on talking about independent movies, apart from X-Men 3, all of her movies were pretty much low budget, independent movies. She did most of the talking. She was the total opposite of me. She was a teen, full of energy and very talkative. I was, quite and drained out of energy, mainly from the Janine incident earlier. Which came up in the conversation and I explained to her. She gave a sympathetic 'Aw' and a hug.
I had to admit, I was finding her attractive and thought that maybe it could escalade into more, but I decided to stop it. Her body looked like it was still in the developing process, she was quite short. From what I saw when she came in and was standing, I'd say she was about five foot tall. All of this made me unsure of her age and in 'Hard Candy' she plays a 15 year old. I don't want to be getting arrested for statutory rape. Sometimes she looked like she was over 18, sometimes she looked like she was younger. That's why I had to end our conversation.
"It was nice chatting to you kid." I said, using the word 'kid' to let her know that I thought she was too young. I put money on the counter for how much I owed for me and Janine's drinks earlier and included a tip. I started to walk away. I could hear Ellen say 'check please.' But didn't pay any attention, I thought it was best to get away from her, she was definitely jail bait. Under age and flirting with older men.
"Hey!" Ellen said catching up to me. Great! That's just what I needed! She was following me around now like an excited kid, who just made a new friend and wants to spend every second with them. "Why'd you call me a 'kid' and leave? I'm not a kid! I thought we were having fun talking."
"I called you a 'kid' because you play a 15 year old in 'Hard Candy,' you look very young. The maximum you could be is about..." I thought for a second looking her up and down. "...about 17"
"17?! You think I'm 17?" She was getting irritated and I had to admit she looked cute when she was angry.
"Well... 17 is pushing it. It's the oldest you could be. But I think you're about 15... 16, maybe even 14. That's why I'm getting away from you." I said turning around and walking away from her.
"I'm 19." I heard her say and stopped in my tracks.
"How do I know you're telling the truth?"
"What I need I.D to hang out with you?" She replied. "Besides, my hotel room has a mini bar. How would I have a mini bar if I'm under age?" She had a good point. Usually I would walk away, but she was a celebrity. There was something about nailing a celeb that was luring me towards her. I gave in, I smiled at her and walked over to her. She was quite happy at my decision. I put my arm around her waist and she put her arm around mine.
"Let's get out of this heat!" She said.
"Where should we go?"
"My hotel room is air conditioned." She suggested and I followed her lead. We entered the hotel.
"Hi Miss Page." The guy at the reception said. She smiled at him.
"One of my friend's are staying here, I need to get a message to them." I said to her.
"I'll wait here for you." She said leaning forward. I think she was leaning in to give me a kiss.
