Colton waved his hand dismissively and said to Ryan, “What do you know? I’m right here in front of the monitor, seeing everything clearly, and trust me, now’s not the time for our leading lady to shed tears. She’s a tough cookie, that one. Didn’t even let a single tear fall when he left her out of the blue. She just stood there, all defiant. When the scene of his actual departure comes, that’s when she’ll let it all out. That’s gonna be true to her character.”
And with that, Ivy was denied her right to cry on cue. She had no choice but to swallow her tears.
It took three takes to wrap up that scene. When it was finally over, Ryan came over to offer some comfort.
“Hey Ivy, you holding up alright? You seemed a bit off today.”
All around them, cameras clicked, capturing their interaction. Ivy knew that Colton was drumming up publicity for the film, shooting some behind-the-scenes footage to generate buzz.
She mustered a weak smile, “I’m fine, really. Sorry you had to go through three takes because of me.”
Ryan patted her on the shoulder like a true bro, “Hey, no sweat! You’re doing great. We usually don’t nail it in one take like you do. If anything, I’m the one who should be embarrassed.”
Ivy chuckled, amused by Ryan’s exaggerated display.
Unnoticed by Ivy, someone had already posted the footage of the two interacting online.
The video clearly showed Ryan extending a hand to Ivy.
With a faint smile on her face, she seemed to be in good spirits, and it appeared that she and Ryan got along quite well.
Ivy scrolled through the comments on her phone, finding the reactions rather amusing.
“OMG! Even their faces are a match made in heaven!” read one comment, which led the pack in likes.
“I don’t get what Colton’s thinking. With such a hot couple, why not let them have some time on a talk show or a reality series? I’m literally crying with anticipation!”
“Can anyone relate? I’ve been replaying that teaser over and over again… I just can’t get enough.”
Many of the comments echoed the sentiment.
“I feel you, ’cause I’ve been watching it just as much. Why won’t Colton let the CP shine? Is he afraid they’ll be too sweet and give us all cavities?”
At first, Ivy didn’t quite understand what the fans were shipping. She knew that some fans response. would ship her with others, but she hadn’t anticipated such an intense
After the last teaser dropped, more and more people started shipping her and Ryan.
Ivy and Ryan were both attractive and newcomers to the cast, displaying a remarkable chemistry on screen.
This was quite a feat.
But neither of them had expected their ship to sail so strongly, outpacing even the solo stans who typically only support one person or character.
Ivy was a bit worried that the overwhelming number of ship fans might skew the movie’s narrative in unintended ways.
The director, on the other hand, was thrilled. To him, fans were potential box office gold, no matter what side they were on.
Feeling somewhat uneasy, Ivy thought about finding an opportunity to discuss with Ryan a way to clarify their relationship online, to tell the fans that they were just friends and that there was nothing ambiguous between them.
Unfortunately, the chance never came. The shoot schedule was just too tight.
