Contest Fanfiction

Colin Farrell sighed as he opened the envelope and saw that the winner of his acting contest was a guy. Tyler A. Stokes. Twenty three years old.

"Here." He muttered as he thrust another envelope at his roommate, "I can't believe they gave me a guy! Hopefully you get a damned girl."

*-*
TEN DAYS LATER...

Tyler ran a hand through her hair as she walked towards baggage claim. It had taken her twenty minutes to get through security. She looked around for someone waiting to pic her up and smiled when she spotted Colin Farrell. He'd badly disguised himself and she wondered why no one else noticed him. She walked over to him after finding her bag and smiled slightly. He took a moment to look her up and down and then looked away. He was looking for someone, that much was obvious.

"I'm Tyler Stokes." She finally said.

"Oh thank the Lord." Colin said finally, "I thought they sent me a guy." She gave him an odd look so he continued, "Sorry, I was wanting a girl and I thought...well, you know...Nevermind."

"Umm sure...Nice to meet you too." Tyler laughed, saving the awkward situation.

*&*

Shia sighed as he fixed his old leather jacket and ran his hand through his hair. He looked around and saw his best friend and roommate Colin had met his winner now if he could only find Ryanne O'Neill. He was looking forward to directing with someone new and plus from her contest entries he knew she was pretty talented. Shia spotted a brunette who looked a bit lost, he approached her hoping it was indeed Ryanne.

"Hi I'm Ryanne..." She suddenly said, recognizing him.

Colin smiled at her, "Well, are you ready to return to the house? You may find that the room is a bit more...manly than your likings."

*-*

"Nice to meet you." He smiled as he led her toward the exit.

"I think I'll survive." Tyler smiled as Cassidy and Michael approached.

"Hey..." Shia said to Colin, "This is Ryanne."

Colin was grinning from ear to ear, "THIS is Tyler."

"Oh." Shia chuckled, "Well hello I'm Shia..."

"Lets show the ladies their new home." Colin smiled.

(Changed her name b/c well I don't really like the name Cassidy. Reminds me of a bitchy girl I went to HS with lol)

Lol.

Tyler looked a Ryanne and smiled, "So, you must be pretty talented."

"And you must be too." Ryanne smiled, "Where are you from?"

"I'm from Texas but I moved to England. I went with an ex boyfriend but I ended up going to Guildhall and now here I am." Tyler replied, "And what about you?"

"I grew up in Brooklyn but went to high school and college in New York City. That's where I live now. I'm not really into this Hollywood Blockbuster stuff but it's a great place to learn and get experience." Ryanne smiled, she noticed Shia rolled his eyes.

"I can't wait to get to sleep." Tyler said as they got into the car. Colin was driving and she sat in the front. Shia and Ryanne sat in the back.

*How do you pronounce Ryanne?*

"Me too! The six hour flight and four hour time difference is killing me. Yours is much worse, you must be ready to pass out!" She smiled.


*I think I'll have it be like Rye-Anne instead of Ryan*

Tyler flashed her a smile, "This ought to be fun. Hopefully their egos won't get the best of them."

Ryanne smiled, "Hopefully." Then she turned to Shia, "So what is the movie we're directing about?"

*&*

Colin looked at Tyler and smiled, "So you lived in England.."

Shia smiled at her, "Colin and Tyler are the lead actors and they're in love and everything. They get married and then he finds out that she has cancer. It's a romance movie but it's got it's comical points. I know...it doesn't seem like something I would do. Or even Colin for that matter."

*-*

Tyler nodded, "My ex-boyfriend wanted to be a rockstar. So he went to England...I don't really understand why but it worked out for me. Do you have a girlfriend?"

Ryanne smiled, "We should do something creative with the shooting style, make it reminiscient of an old Blake Edwards' movie."

*&*

"Nope." Colin shaked his head.

(Blake Edwards directored Breakfast at Tiffany's =] my all time favorite movie!)

Shia nodded, "Yes...I suppose we could. I just want to do a different style than anyone else. I have a lot of ideas and I have many different things in mind."

*-*

Tyler grinned and Collin couldn't help but return the smile, "You're beautiful."

"Me too!" Ryanne smiled, "I'll show you some of my stuff at the house. I have tons on my laptop."

*&*

"Thank you." She blushed slightly.

Shia smiled, "I'm glad they picked someone who isn't an idiot."

Ryanne laughed, "I suppose you are."

*-*

Tyler's jaw dropped when Colin pulled into the driveway of their house. She saw a Jeep Wrangler in the driveway and smiled, "You have got to let me drive that."

"It's yours." Colin replied, "I took the liberty of picking you out something based on some of the things in your questionaire. Thankfully you specified your favorite car."

Smiling, she leaned over and kissed his cheek, "You shouldn't have."

"It's like pocket change." He smiled, wanting to hold a hand up to where she'd kissed him.

"I have a suprise for you too." Shia said as he and Ryanne exited the car. She began to protest but he interupted, "Oh none of that. Too bad I bought it already." He led her into the garage and showed her two motorcycles, "The red is all yours. I watched your entry piece about your life and family. Not many girls grow up riding motorcycles." He laughed.

"I have five brothers." Ryanne examined the bike, "You have to be kidding me...this is amazing."

"Yeah, I mean it's a pretty intense bike." Shia held the keys high above her head, "Sure you can handle it?" He teased.

"Of course I can." Ryanne said quickly jumping for the keys with no success. "I should have you know I'd wrestle you to the ground for the keys to a bike like this." She laughed, trying once more to get the keys.

*&*

Tyler smiled as she walked around the jeep, "Thank you so much. It's even my favorite color!"

Shia laughed at her and finally handed her the keys, "Let's go for a ride. We've got like two days of free time before we start briefing on the movie."

-*-

Colin smiled, "I sort of just guessed that red would be your favorite. Shia told me to take you to pick out a wedding dress."

"Well...you're sort of jumping the gun, aren't you?" Tyler laughed.

He laughed as well, "For the movie."

"Okay." Ryanne smiled as she put on the helmet Shia handed her.

"Follow me." He said, getting on his bike and leading the way.

*&*

"Alright." Tyler laughed, "Can I drive?"

Ryanne grinned and did just that.

*-*

Colin smiled, "Sure."

Shia smirked as Ryanne passed him on the road. Guess she liked to go fast. They road through the Hollywood hills then he signalled for her to spot on a cliff where they could see the Hollywood sign.

*&*

They got in and Tyler couldn't stop smiling.

"This is amazing." Ryanne smiled. She glanced at Shia and saw that he was staring at her.

*-*

Colin directed her to a bridal botique and they started looking at dresses. He knew it would start rumors that he was getting married and he didn't care.
