this is my first fanfic. i hope you like it. i enjoyed writing it, and i hope you will enjoy reading it! ;D
Chapter 1
The phone was ringing as Keira Knightley walked through the door. She had had a trying day, and besides, the phone was close to it’s last ring anyway.
The machine picked up the call, and Keira heard her own voice instructing the caller to leave their name and a message. The caller started his message, and Keira gasped as she recognized his voice.
“Hey Keira, it’s Orlando. I... I wanted to see how you are. Fancy meeting for lunch tomorrow? Noon at an outdoor cafe called Hilda’s? I’ll be waiting till two. Please show up if you can. See you tomorrow. I hope. Well... um... bye then.”
There was a click as the message ended. Keira sighed. She had enough to deal with right now. But she had to go. She had no trouble refusing people, but with Orlando it was different. She couldn’t deny him; she never could. Keira turned her laptop. She went to Map Quest and looked up Hilda’s. It was here in L.A., only fifteen minutes from her flat. She glanced at the clock. It was nearly eleven. She decided it was time for her to go to bed. After all, she had what she felt would be yet another trying day ahead of her tomorrow.

thank you guys so much!! im glad you like it! here's chapter 2-- its kinda long... well compared to my next one anyways... hehehe. but anyways here it is:
Chapter 2
Keira pulled into the parking lot of the small outdoor cafe called “Hilda’s” at about 12:05.
He better be here! She thought. If he isn’t I’ll... I’ll whoop his ass!
She checked her makeup in her rearview mirror, opened the car door, and stepped out into the bright sunshine. She made her way to the tables under brightly colored umbrellas, looking for Orlando.
She thought she heard a camera flash, so she jerked sharply around, expecting to see paparazzi behind her. There was no one. Oh, Lord, now she was becoming so stressed out that she was acting like a paranoid freak and imagining things. “Keira!” she heard someone shout. She whipped around again and saw Orlando Bloom waving frantically at her and shouting her name.
She waved and headed over to the table where he was seated, under a bright pink umbrella. “I’m glad you came,” Orlando said as she sat down, a wide grin upon his face. “So... how are you?”
“At this very moment? Simply splendid. Every other time? Completely and utterly stressed,” she said.
“Tough shooting schedule?” Orlando asked sympathetically. “Oh no, nothing like that,” Keira replied. “My last shoot ended two months ago, and my next one starts in three months.”
“Oh,” said Orlando. He paused. “Relationship problems?”
Keira nodded, tears welling up in her eyes.
“You and Rupert...” he trailed off. “So what happened?”
“Well lately he’s become...” Keira searched for the right word. “Possessive. He didn’t like me talking to other men, even my co-stars. No scratch that, especially my co-stars. He became extremely jealous. He even lashed out at me, claiming I was being unfaithful.” At tear drop ran down her face.
“Yesterday, he called me while I was out shopping. He was furious, accusing me of a being a slut who took him for granted. That was it for me. I told him I was fed up with him and our entire relationship. Then I told him that I never wanted to see him or talk to him ever again. We were over, I said. Then I hung up.” The tears were coming faster now.
Orlando stood up, walked around the table, and hugged her while she sobbed.
“I’m just so scared of what Rupert’ll do,” Keira confided between sobs.
“Nothing as long as I’m here,” Orlando whispered, running his fingers through her hair. “I could even stay with you at your flat if you’d like.”
“Would you?” Keira asked, her eyes still shining with tears.
“Why not?” he asked back. “I’m staying in a hotel room anyway, and my new movie premieres here in two weeks. I am completely free for two whole weeks. I would love nothing more than to spend those two weeks with you.”
“And I would love nothing more than to have you stay with me in my flat during those two weeks,” Keira replied. She could feel the dried tears on her face and felt ashamed for having lost control in front of him.
“You can move in this afternoon,” she told him. “Do you remember where it is?”
Orlando smiled. “Of course I do. I’ll be there this afternoon then.”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

thanks everybody for all the comments!! here are three chapters today! YAY! they were all short, so i decided to update three! enjoy!
Chapter 3
The doorbell rang. Keira had just gotten out of the shower. She quickly wrapped a towel around her soaking wet hair, threw on her robe, and dashed to the door.
Just before she opened the door to greet Orlando, she looked at the clock. It was quarter till three; she had left Hilda’s only forty-five minutes before. She shook her head. That was just like him.
She opened the door. Orlando stood awkwardly in the doorway, his face turning red at the sight of Keira in a robe.
“Well, come on in!” she said brightly. “Make yourself at home! Just let me throw some clothes on, and then I’ll show you around.”
“I came too early, didn’t I?” Orlando asked, wincing.
“Oh no!” Keira said. “I said this afternoon, and it is indeed the afternoon. You’re fine. Don’t worry. I’m going to go get some proper clothes on. You can sit down if you’d like while you wait.”
Orlando wheeled in his suitcase and sat down on the couch. Looking satisfied, Keira left to go change, glad that he had come. In her mind, she came up with an idea to surprise him. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 4
“Where the hell are you taking me, Keira?” Orlando mused. They were in Keira’s car, cruising down the streets of L.A.
“It’s a surprise!” Keira said for the fifteenth time. “Ask me again, and I’ll turn this car around!”
“Alright, alright,” Orlando said. “I trust you.”
“I know,” Keira answered, meaning it as a joke. But as it left her mouth, they both knew it was not.
The awkward silence was interrupted when they pulled into the parking lot of a fancy looking restaurant.
“Look familiar?” Keira asked.
Orlando laughed. “Of course it does! You, me, and Johnny came to eat here all the time during the filming of the first Pirates movie.”
“Thank God you remembered!” Keira said, laughing. If you hadn’t, I would’ve had to shoot you!”
Orlando sighed. “We had a lot of good memories here.”
“So do you like the surprise?” Keira asked, her eyes bright.
“I love it,” Orlando answered. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5
“I do not snore!” Keira protested, although she was laughing. “Believe me,” Orlando chuckled. “You didn’t hear yourself on that plane ride! The whole plane was shaking with the vibrations of your snoring!”
Keira shook her head empathetically.
Just then a familiar figure came up behind Orlando. “Miss me?” he asked. Orlando turned sharply around and embraced his old friend. “Johnny!” he said, for it was Johnny Depp behind him. “It’s been too long!”
“Too true!” Johnny agreed, returning Orlando’s embrace.
“How’d you know we were going to be here?” Orlando inquired. Johnny simply pointed to Keira, who shrugged and said, “Surprise!”
Orlando laughed and said, “Wow, Keira. You are officially amazing!” He gave Keira a quick hug.
Johnny caught the look that passed between the two of them, but he said nothing. He sat down at the table and prepared for what was sure to be a fun and interesting night. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ill try to update again tomorrow! again- thak you so much for being such amazing readers!!!

hey sorry its been TWO WHOLE DAYS since my last update but heres my new one! please enjoy!!
Chapter 6
Keira woke up the next morning with an enormous headache. She groggily stumbled into the living room, where Orlando was reading a magazine.
“Hey,” she mumbled, heading into the kitchen to get some hot tea. “No need, Keira,” Orlando said.
“Hmm?” she asked, turning around.
“I have it right here,” he said, holding up a steaming mug of hot tea.
Keira lumbered over to the couch, took the mug, murmured thanks, and sat down next to him. She took a sip and was surprised to taste honey. Orlando noticed her surprised expression and said, “Yes, I remembered, love.”
Keira smiled and took another sip. “Ow!” she gasped, putting down the mug and clutching her head. “Damn it to hell!”
“Tea too hot?” Orlando asked, a worried expression on his face.
“Oh no, the tea’s fine,” she said, smiling at his need to please her. “I just happen to have the worst bloody headache in the whole bloody world!”
“Hangover,” Orlando said knowingly. “You drank an awful lot last night. You and Johnny both.”
“Did I?” Keira asked, not recalling this. She had never had a hangover before. She didn’t think she wanted one ever again.
“I ended up driving Johnny home last night,” Orlando said with a laugh. “He seemed to think that I was a chimpanzee and that he was a zookeeper.”
“Where was I?” Keira asked, afraid to know the answer.
“Passed out as soon as we got in the car,” he replied. “You were in the backseat. I carried you in last night and set you in your bed.”
“Oh my God, I am so sorry!” Keira apologized. “Here you are my guest, and you’re lugging me around when I get drunk! I don’t deserve you.” An awkward silence followed this remark. “As a friend I mean,” she added quickly. “I know,” Orlando said, and Keira couldn’t help but notice that he looked disappointed. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
chapter 7 coming [hopefully] soon!!! thanks for being such awesome readers!

heres chapter 7 & 8- they gop together, and their both short. enjoy!
Chapter 7
Keira’s headache diminished as the day went on. By the early evening, she barely noticed it at all.
She emerged from her room, where she had been napping. She found Orlando in the kitchen.
“Hey sleepy head!” He greeted her. “Feeling better?” “Much,” Keira replied.
“You hungry?” he asked.
She shook her head. She wanted to go somewhere. She wanted to do something! Suddenly it became clear where she wanted to go. “Wanna go to the beach?” she asked Orlando.
“What?” he asked, thrown off guard.
“The beach. Do you wanna go to the beach?”
“Keira,” Orlando said hesitantly, “it’s a little after seven. The sun will set soon, and it will be dark.”
“Come on, where’s your sense of adventure?” Keira wondered. “We can go and watch the sunset. Please say you’ll go. It’ll be fun! Please, Orlando?” She was on her knees now, begging.
“Alright, alright,” he said as he helped her to her feet. “Let’s go to the beach.”
“Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!” Keira squealed, giving him a big hug. She lingered for a moment, loving his smell and touch. Then she tore herself away.
“To the beach!” she cried triumphantly as she headed out the door.
Chapter 8
“This is beautiful!” Keira gasped. She and Orlando were sitting in the sand side by side watching the sun set.
“Yeah, it is,” Orlando agreed. Keira glanced at him and saw that he was not, as she had believed he was, watching the sunset. Instead, he was looking at her, a smile upon his lips. She blushed a deep crimson, which she hoped he couldn’t see in the fading light.
In that moment, Keira realized that it was happening all over again. She had thought that if she had found herself in a relationship, she would forget about him. Yeah, didn’t happen. She had thought that if she had spent time apart from him, she wouldn’t love him anymore. Again, she was wrong. And the sad thing was, she believed that he didn’t love her. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
welp, those are the chapters for today!! hopefully i'll update again soon! thanks for all the wonderful and for being such awesome readers!!!
