The next day Dotty was run ragged, she was fixing costumes, picking up litter from the beach as tissues that wrapped around chicken and and cheese wraps from a van were dropped on the golden sand. Helmets were dropped too, the set was like a bomb had hit it.... literally. Her dad was slightly stressed, the weather was not on their side, it kept raining in and off and filming scenes with no rain in different parts was proving tricky.

Dotty had her hood pulled up over her head from her hoodie, a denim jacket over the top, ripped jeans and boots on her feet. Her glasses were awfully clogged with rain drops. As the beach cleared because of the rain, people returned to tents and marquees that had been put up on the closed off road and car park nearby, meaning Dotty had to continue working clearing the sand as it was easiest to do when it was clear. Wet sand and boots were not the greatest mix, nor was ripped jeans sticking to her leg either.

Sighing in annoyance, she ripped off her glasses and tucked them into her pocket and continued with her work. Her vision was slightly blurred, but not so much that she could my see properly, the rain being at fault the most. It was like an army drill in itself, bending down scooping up the rubbish into her hand, straightening up tucking it into the bag, and repeating over and over again. "I should really go running or to the gym...."she muttered to herself, "nope, food is love, food is life, so is the sofa." The young woman isn't unfit, nor was she unhealthy, the task was very tiring and straining in the body, she was sure her back would be murder the next day.

Once finished, Dotty dumped the bags in a large bin on the side of the road and made her way to the refreshment tent. Her father ushered her in from the rain and handed her a coffee that he had made before looking around the tent for her. "Why were you out there? I thought you were in here! You're soaked and not wearing a raincoat!" Chris exclaimed.

The girl shook her head taking the coffee gratefully, "I'm fine. The beach was a shithole full of rubbish, better getting down whilst no one was on there." Chris nodded patting her on the shoulder before joking the producer, leaving his daughter to take a seat and drink her coffee, warming her insides. Fionn saw the girl sitting alone and decided to join her, giving her a towel that he was wrapped in. "Thanks."

"Don't worry about it, why aren't you sat with us. We invited you to didn't we?" He replied sitting beside her, still wrapped in a towel himself.

"You invited me to sit with you at dinner last night not all the time."Dotty stated bringing her coffee cup to her lips.

Fionn chuckled, "And by that we meant all of the time. Don't want you all alone." He nudged her with his shoulder laughing.

Dotty smiled, "Thanks. What are you doing here anyway? Over with me that is and not with the guys."

"Like I said. Don't want you all alone. Now come on, come with me." He stood up and waited for her to do so too. She copied his actions pulling the hood from her head that was still up, Fionn lead the way, weaving in and out of people until they reached the group.

"You look like you've took a dip in the sea, there Dotty. Didn't know you were being an extra today." Jack joked and the woman rolled her eyes.

"Yeah because I wouldn't stick out like a soar thumb in this movie at all." Dotty chuckled, pulling her hair off of her rosy cheeks. She wiped her glasses on the towel and replaced them onto her face, her vision becoming fully clear. "That's better." She grinned.

"Woah! You have orange braces!" Tom (GC) exclaimed, "I have not noticed that before."

She nodded, "my teeth were very messed up." Her cheeks flushed red as she looked down, she wasn't very fond of her teeth, they still were not great after having braces for a while. Another thing was, they hadn't moved in months, and some were still crooked. "Still are." The girl added, her thumbs wrestling each other in her lap.

Fionn watched the girl in confusion. He understood where she was coming from with having crooked teeth. Although, he had gotten used to it all and didn't care, he liked his teeth the way they are. He thought her teeth were fine the way they were, and that her braces would sort them out for her, surely?

"What do you mean?" Harry asked, "how are they still messed up? I don't think that they're messed up at all."

She glanced at him sending him a short smile, "I still have overlapping teeth. They haven't moved in months either. My mum thinks they won't move anymore and I don't like it. I don't want them overlapping, they've overlapped since forever. Of course they were way worse and a few have lined up properly..." she trailed off at the end not knowing what to really say. Her cheeks were still rosy from the cold so her blush was masked, fortunately.

"Don't worry about your teeth, Dotty." Said Fionn, "we all have some qualities that are different. I have crooked teeth too!" He grinned pointing at his teeth to try and make her feel better.

Dotty chuckled, shaking her head. "I guess so." Fionn bumped her shoulder like he had done so he previous day, a child-like grin on his face just as her phone buzzed.

She pulled it from her pocket expecting it to be the other Fionn but it wasn't.

Anna:
When do you come home?

Dotty:
I haven't a clue. Could be months.

Anna:
Ugh, that's annoying. I need an ice cream and movie date with you. Nathan is ignoring me again 😫😭

The thing with Anna is, she is so engrossed in her boyfriend, Nathan, that when he is out with his friends and doesn't reply straight away she believes that he is ignoring her. They're meaning she turns to Dotty to cry to. Otherwise, Dotty is left alone whilst Anna is with Nathan and doesn't get a reply for a while. The girl doesn't see that Anna isn't a great friend, and only wants her when she wants her, Dotty just thinks it's normal friend behaviour.

Dotty:
I'm sorry. 🙃💕 If I could be there I would but it's not like a small drive away, it's a whole other country. Sorry, Anna 😘

Anna:
Whatever.

Dotty stared at the reply a confused look in her eyes. Shrugging it off she shut her phone off and turned to find only Harry left. The other boys had left to go somewhere. "You okay?" He asked her.

"I'm alright. You? Where'd the others go?"

"I'm good, and a they went to the van to get food, Fionn is grabbing me some. I thought I'd wait with you been as it was clear you didn't notice that they were leaving." Harry replied and brushed his damp hair from his face. "Do you really hate your teeth, that much?"

"Yeah."

"I don't see why. They honestly aren't bad. Like Fionn said, everyone has qualities that others don't so you shouldn't count it as a flaw instead count it as a quality unique to you, and Fionn and a few others. It proves you aren't perfect, and that it shouldn't matter if you aren't."

Dotty nodded taking in everything Harry had said. Never would she had thought she would be talking to Harry Styles like he was a friend of hers. It just wasn't anything she would have imagined, besting a directioner and all. "Thank you. Can I ask for some advice? It's okay if you don't want to help?"

"Nonsense. Hit me with it. I'm not the best but I'll try." Harry shook his head wiggling his fingers in a 'come on' motion.

Dotty nibbled her lip before letting everything out. "I've been talking to someone for about a week. If that. He seems really nice and everything, but I don't know what to do. I don't want to go to my dad about it because I think I am being paranoid. I just don't think this guy is telling the truth, but I don't know what about that's the thing. There are a few things I have in mind though."

Harry nodded, processing everything. "Well what do you think he is lying about?"

She shrugged, "his job maybe, it was very coincidental how we both were starting new jobs on the same day. Also his age, it's not the same as me, a year older but I'm just worried I'm being cat-fished." Harry didn't say anything again, so she continued. "He told me he is a baker. But I don't think bakers have to get up at three in the morning to get started."

Harry pondered. Why did she seem so familiar?
