CHAPTER 69 – CAN’T YOU JUST LET ME ?
While everyone else had left, as usual, Eric went back to the Firefly Studios headquarters to ith the editor Because Eric had to attend the Golden Globes to this ti the shots
It didn’t requireas the two of theh all the material they had accumulated so far
In the dimly lit rooh for today”
“Alright, director” Editor Patrick McKinley knew Eric would attend the Golden Globes toood luck for tomorrow Mr Williams”
The Golden Globes weren’t into technicality, there wasn’t any Best Editing, Best Cineh Patrick had worked on Home Alone as an editor, he hadn’t been invited to the ceremony
When Eric drove back to his hohts were on In addition to himself, the only ones with a key were Jenny and Drew, but Jenny was still in New York, fil her TV Show “Mary in Action”[1], and obviously couldn’t leave the crew Without a doubt, the goblin was back
He parked his car and went in Dreas curled up on the couch, raised her head at the sound
“Hey, Eric” She sleepily said When Eric sat down next to her, the lass sluggishly laid on his lap
Eric sht, so why are you here ? Toht”
“But the Golden Globes are tomorrow!” Drew sobered up a bit, and turned her head to face Eric before straightforwardly saying: “It’s not skipping this time, I also received an invitation to the ceremony, so I’ll be your date tomorrow”
Eric didn’t particularly care for the Golden Globes, their awards were too subjective, so their overall value wasn’t that high
However, a o, the Golden Globes nonore theain had received neither Oscar nor Golden Globe awards, however this time, thanks to the Fox’s public relations, Eric’s version was now running for two Golden Globes: Best Supporting Actress, and Best Original Score
Although the Home Alone crew didn’t have any public relations, the Golden Globes committee could hardly turn a blind eye to the movie’s box office, and so it was nominated for Best Musical or Comedy, and for Best Performance in a Musical or Comedy
“If I re Actress noht ?” Eric asked, puzzled
“Who says you can’t attend without a nomination ?” Drew innocently blinked her eyes a few times, but confronted with Eric’s stare, she quickly spilled the beans: “I asked Kapoor to help ht now, and it was only one invitation, so he contacted the Fox and it was quickly arranged”
Eric snorted: “What I understand is that you’d do about anything to miss out on school”
“Hey!” Drew knocked Eric’s thigh with the back of her head and giggled, please
d She added: “Are you hungry ? There’s pizza left in the kitchen”
“I ate at the studio” Eric stood up, “Stop watching TV and go to bed early, we need to go shopping to just anything”
Drew also got up and followed behind Eric: “About that, Kapoor has already arranged it He contacted Versace and they’ve agreed to sponsor us, I’ve chosen a few sets of clothes, they’ll co, we can try them on then”
Eric remembered that he had indeed had that conversation with the man on the phone Kapoor had relinquished his hold on every signed artists he had, and was now only responsible for Al Pacino, Julia Roberts, Drew, and Eric himself
Recently, under Eric suggestion, Kapoor dutifully went to Sweden, intent on signing the Roxette duo However the artists were already under the EMI Records Despite Kapoor’s eloquent persuasion, the Roxette duo just wasn’t willing to switch froiants to the unknown UTA However, they gladly agreed to sign a song licensing agreement for “It Must Have Been Love”
He originally thought that, with Drew being in school, and Al, Julia and himself busy on set, that Kapoor would be idle for a while, however it didn’t seem to be the case at all, he realized Eric patted hi Kapoor to stay was one of the best decisions he had ever made
“Good night” The youth tucked Drew in and kissed her forehead before closing her bedroo to the bathroom
After showering, Eric went to bed He read a bit waiting for his hair to dry a little, and turn off the bedside lahts to sleep
After an unknown aht ‘click’ sound, and a slender figure tiptoed its way towards the bed, before drilling under the sheets and snuggling in Eric’s embrace
Shuffle –
Eric turned the lights back on, and face-palotten to lock his door
