Chapter 207 First Scene (1/2)
Kyle pitched the idea to Chad that very day, and Chad was extremely excited about the opportunity.
He patted Kyle's shoulder and said, ”Thanks, Kyle. That would certainly speed up the process a bit. At least you can shoot your scenes while we finish up over here.”
Kyle nodded, saying, ”It's all due to Samantha's help. I didn't reveal the storyline. She just knows it's a flashback scene of my training but not who I am in relation to the movie.”
Kyle felt he had to explain in case Chad thought he had informed Samantha of the plot. That would be against the NDA.
”It's fine,” Chad said, ”I trust you on this.”
Chad had been observing Kyle the entire time and it was very apparent how honest and meticulous Kyle was. There was no doubt in Chad's mind that Kyle would adhere to the NDA. So when Kyle had told him about this opportunity, Chad was simply excited and didn't think Kyle had revealed anything.
So part of the stunt team and the crew members involved with constructions went to Mansion BMX under tight security. It took them only two days to change the training room into the scene that they wanted.
Samantha had given them free rein to do anything they wanted to the room, so long as they put it back to what it was before. Most of the equipment would be used, though only one part had to be built in.
To showcase Kyle's upper body strength, they had placed holds on the wall. Kyle would then have to climb up to the top by using his hands alone. Kind of like what he did when bouldering but in this case, only hands were used.
This was one scene that Chad had inserted due to Kyle's bouldering experience. The entire 'exercise' routine was also the 'eye-candy' scene to appease the masses. At least this scene had some bearing to the movie, for it would show the sort of life John Wick's son had while growing up.
It wasn't an empty 'eye-candy' scene like a lot of movies did for women. Such as in the Transformers movie that had Megan Fox simply sitting sexily on a motorcycle while working on it, as she was waiting for Sam's call. It was pure fan service without any essence.
This would be fan service with essence.
Samantha walked into the training room with a smile. The lightings had also been changed to make it look darker and thus, more dreary. There was the 'step' wall, some basic dumbells, a punching bag, and a life-size wooden dummy.
”Impressive,” Samantha said as Kyle walked beside her, ”You're going to be using all of this?”
”Yeah,” Kyle stated, ”The shoot wouldn't last more than a day or two, but it's far better than just sitting around doing the same old thing for those two days.”
He smiled at her as he walked around, ”I truly do appreciate this.”
Samantha smiled, feeling warm again. It was rare that she ever did anything for anyone without expecting something in return, but she liked the feeling that it was giving her. Seeing how excited Kyle was, as he went about the room and thanking her for something as simple as this was ... nice.
She felt that this ... 'nice' ... feeling was really unique and unusual. She didn't mind feeling it all the time, too.
She was also beginning to understand what Kyle meant by 'sleeping with the one you love' rather than just sleeping to find love.
Previously, her feelings were based on pure basic lust. With such a fine specimen in front of her, who wouldn't want to feel that young, lithe body? With that gorgeous face as well, it would be like heaven. Her body would feel extremely satisfied.
She had thought that if you're compatible sexually, then it means you can fall in love with the person. Yet, it never happened but she was not unhappy about it. After all, it was still fun and satisfying.
However, now, she felt that it was not enough.
Not anymore.
It felt ... empty. After the act, that is. The satisfaction or the feeling was gone the moment it was all over.
Samantha was beginning to understand what Kyle was saying. There is a difference between sex and making love.
