a vampire at heart.

“That you are.” Paul chuckled a little bit, although he thought it true. Granted all of his cast mates were fun but he always had more fun with Nina. They were all close friends which was something that he loved. “I strongly doubt that I could ever get sick of you.” He confessed softly. Reaching for his wine once again, he brought it to his lips and took a small sip. His own eyes moved back to hers. “I’m starting to think it’s me or something.” There was a small sigh that left his lips. Maybe it was because he was holding in how he felt or something. Taking another drink, he nodded his head a little bit. “There is nothing wrong with a refresher. We all need it sometimes. And being in the public and in LA doesn’t help so hopefully this move does for the both of us.” 

She took a few bites of the food on her plate, wiping her hands on a napkin afterwards. “There’s always a chance of it happening.  But then after a few days, you’ll remember why you love me and come back around.” She smirked. Her eyes glanced over to him before setting back onto the movie. “You’re a great guy, Paul. Anyone would be lucky to have you as their significant other.” She told him Even the two did despise each other when they first met on set of the Vampire Diaries, she grew to love him and knew how great of a person he truly was. “You’ll find someone better than in the past and get the happy ending that you deserve.” She grinned over at him, nudging him. Relationships in general were hard, especially in the industry that they were in. Her own were always a hit and miss. “Not at all. And being here, you’re in your own little world. Like you don’t really have the public around asking for pictures and hounding you with questions you can’t really answer.”

“Yes, we did. I play a guy name Tucker this time but no spoilers for you though.” Paul was really glad that they were getting another season. Honestly he was just as happy for Nina and her success after The Vampire Diaries. Although that show would always hold a special place in his heart. “I am glad that it’s you that is here. I mean don’t get me wrong I love Candice, Michael and everyone else but I swear you know me better than them.” He admitted. “You know that you’ll always have me, Nina.” It was nice having someone that knew him there. “I think maybe I needed a change things with Ines didn’t work out. So I felt like a change was needed. What about you?” Glancing over at the television for a moment before his attention moved back to Nina.

“And I’m just more fun than the rest of them,” she jokingly. She would admit the rest of her former cast mates were a lot of fun, especially since she was still close friends with less than half of them to this day. “You say you’re glad it’s me, but I’m sure I’ll be asking you to hang out a lot. And you’ll get sick and tired of me and move out of here.” She teased as she took a sip from her wine. Her eyes went back over to him as he talked about his previous relationship, “I’m sorry it didn’t work out with Ines.” Her tone went softer with her words and the environment around them. That was one of the relationships of his that she did think would work out for the better. “I wanted a change. Fam had gotten cancelled, so I just wanted to move out of LA. Get away from all the drama that goes on down. Refresh my mind while I try and find a better project.”

“As always.” Paul joked lightly, following her into the living room. The actor nodded his head as he started to set the stuff down on the coffee table. Listening to her, he glanced over at her for a moment before he returned to his task. “Oh you know the usual, convection here and there. I’m starting to get the scripts for season two of Tell Me A Story.” Once he was finished, he joined her on the couch. “You’re welcome. Although it really isn’t problem. You probably just made this move a lot more better for me, if I’m being honest. I worried that I wouldn’t know anyone.” He glanced over at her, a smile on his lips as well. Reaching for his own wine, he took a sip before he set it back down. “Well we could always do horror and then comedy?”

“Oh, you guys got another season? That’s great to hear!” She said happily. From what she had seen of the show, it seemed like a good show that deserve all the recognition that it was getting. She was always happy for her friends. “Honestly, I have to say it’s nice to have a friend here now.” She admitted. She was close to anyone there, so having someone that she was close to prior, would make living in Star Cove a lot more fun. “So, what made you move here?” She glanced over at him before looking back at the tv and shifted through the movies and put on I Am Mother.

The moment that the door opened, Paul couldn’t help but smile. It was really good to see her. Between work and moving, he didn’t get a chance to see any of his friends and this was unexpected but he was glad that she was here. It made the move a lot more better actually. Hearing Maverick, the smile remained on his lips as he moved inside after she moved out of the way. “Hey yourself. And nope just show me where this stuff is going. I also got your favorite pizza.” This was going to be a fun night, or at least Paul hoped it was going to be. It certainly would take his mind off work. Although he was excited to be playing a different character in Tell Me A Story. “How have you been?” 

“Follow me,” she said as she walked into the living room. You can set them on the coffee table.” Nina told the actor before she went and grabbed a couple of plates from the kitchen and set them on the coffee table. “I’ve been good. I’ve done a lot of travelling over the past few weeks.” She told him. It was a known trait of Nina’s that she couldn’t sit still and was always on the road visiting a new place with friends when she wasn’t busy at work. “How about yourself? What’s new?” She asked, sitting on the couch and started putting food on the plate. “Thanks for all of this, by the way!” She said, flashing him quick smile before she picked up her wine, setting it on the side table next to her before she grabbed the remote and started going through Netflix. “What do we want? Horror? comedy? Drama?’

It wasn’t that hard shopping for his hangout with Nina, hell he had a harder time shopping for himself. Of course he remembered all of her favorites including the pizza that he picked up. This was a welcome surprise to have her here actually. It had been unexpected but Paul was thankful for it. Once he finished picking up the items that they would need, he drove over to her place. Grabbing everything that he had picked up, he went up to her door and raised his hand to knock on it. Waiting for the brunette to answer. There were no nerves or anything like that because of how close they were.
