Long-haul flights are grueling, especially when crossing multiple time zones, as they can easily cause jet lag. Nancy scheduled the trip to London over the weekend to help everyone adjust to the time difference faster and more effectively.
However, Catherine was excited from the moment she boarded the plane. Sitting next to her was the famous Julia Roberts. Julia had few scenes in Napa Valley, and since she was also working on another movie, she left after finishing all her scenes, which disappointed the young girl. If she had known, she would have written more scenes for herself and Julia.
"Yes, I came to Hollywood because of my brother Eric. If it weren't for him, I might have become a veterinarian," Julia said with a smile.
"Then we must write a letter thanking Mr. Eric, or Hollywood would be missing a beautiful lady," the young girl replied, grinning.
"No, no, Catherine, you don't understand. Eric always causes trouble. Four months ago, he and his girlfriend had a baby girl, and neither of them wanted to take care of her. I had to temporarily place the baby with Eliza and the others. If they keep this up, poor Emma's future is uncertain," Julia said helplessly.
Emma? Could it be Emma Roberts? The little girl touched her chin and squinted her eyes. It must be her, the future star who acted in movies like "Nancy Drew" before she was reborn. How interesting it would be to see her as a baby now.
"You're still a little girl, Catherine. You might have a mature mind, but you still have no defenses against things that might hurt you. You need to learn to protect yourself," Julia said suddenly, perhaps thinking of her poor little niece.
Catherine was taken aback. They had been chatting happily, so how did the conversation jump to this? She quickly realized what had happened. Clearly, some gossip from the "Hook" crew had reached Julia. Did the famous Mr. Spielberg really handle things so poorly?
"It's alright, Julia. Some things don't need to be taken to heart. The more you worry, the more they'll persist. You'll prove yourself!" Catherine said, waving her small fist.
"Marcy told you that?" Julia looked at the young girl in surprise. She was actually a strong person. After the initial ups and downs, she became more determined. She really liked the little girl, and when someone shows genuine feelings, they always seem softer, don't they?
"I live in Los Angeles, Julia," the little girl spread her hands, showing she knew well.
Julia couldn't help but laugh, ruffling her hair. "You little rascal, don't think about everything so much. Do you have to manage every little thing?"
Catherine stuck out her tongue and, after a moment of thought, said, "How about I write a script for you?" After all, she absolutely had to write "Sleepless in Seattle." Waiting was the worst thing to do, so she might as well write it sooner rather than later. And since she was writing a script for her dear sister, she couldn't neglect Julia, right? Of course, given Julia's current situation, she probably couldn't play the single mom in "Erin Brockovich" perfectly yet, but "My Best Friend's Wedding" or "Notting Hill" would be just right.
"You're going to write a script for me?" Julia continued to look surprised. She had vaguely heard Nancy mention that Catherine had written a script, apparently for Meg. She was curious how this small girl could have so many ideas in her head.
"Of course!" Catherine puffed out her chest proudly, then looked at her questioningly. "You don't believe me?"
"Oh, I do believe you. So, what kind of script are you planning to write?" Julia asked, affectionately pinching her cheek like a sister would.
"It's a secret for now. You'll know when I finish writing it," the little girl said, winking as if to tease her. In reality, she hadn't decided whether to write "My Best Friend's Wedding," "Runaway Bride," or "Notting Hill." And she'd only start after finishing "Sleepless in Seattle."
"Alright, get some sleep. We still need to adjust to the time difference," Julia said, calling a flight attendant to get two blankets. After covering the little girl and kissing her forehead with a goodnight, she reclined her seat and began to nap. Catherine, feeling tired after all the talk, also said goodnight and fell asleep.
*****************************************
After crossing eight time zones, the plane finally landed at Heathrow Airport in the early hours of the morning. The crew was yawning one after another. Although everyone had agreed to rush to London, complaints were inevitable.
Soon, under Nancy's arrangement, everyone drove to the Ritz Hotel. Everyone rushed to their rooms to rest, including Catherine, who shared a room with Jessica.
"Cathy, don't just lie in bed. Come look at the night view with me," Jessica said, having slept more on the plane and feeling relatively energetic. She was crawling at the floor-to-ceiling window, curiously looking out, but the sky was only slightly bright, and London was shrouded in streetlights, making it hard to see clearly.
The little girl lay sprawled out on the bed, groggily lifting herself up after hearing Jessica speak. She rubbed her eyes and mumbled, "Come on, Jess, if you want to go shopping early tomorrow, you'd better get some sleep."
Saying this, she began undressing. But when she was down to just her undershirt and panties, something soft suddenly hit her back, startling her. Turning around, she saw Jessica holding a fluffy white pillow with one hand, glaring at her menacingly and beckoning with her finger, "Hey, girl, you dare?"
That expression, that pose, that gesture—was she looking for a pillow fight? Catherine raised an eyebrow, her sleepiness gone after that surprise hit. She grabbed a pillow from the other bed and leaped towards Jessica. In every pajama party that turned into a pillow fight, she was always the winner!
The two girls giggled and laughed, hitting each other with pillows on the bed. Thank God they didn't tear the pillows open, or they'd have extra charges on their hotel bill tomorrow.
The single bed was small, leaving little room to dodge, so every hit landed perfectly. Seeing this was getting nowhere, Catherine seized an opportunity, dropped her pillow, and tried to tackle Jessica as she had done before. However, as Catherine grabbed her, Jessica slipped, and the two girls screamed, rolling off the bed together.
"Cathy, my butt hurts," Jessica panted, looking at Catherine. Though she was the one being pinned down, Catherine's hair was a mess, making her look worse off. Jessica couldn't help but laugh.
"You deserve it, Jess. From now on, you're mine!" Catherine pressed Jessica down, saying smugly.
Jessica giggled, her face flushed red, looking adorable and enticing. Catherine felt a strange sensation welling up inside her. She then realized that, like her, Jessica was also only in her undershirt and panties. The sweat had soaked through her shirt, making her young body faintly visible. The faint scent of her body mixed with sweat filled Catherine's nostrils, though she couldn't tell if it was her own or Jessica's.
Without any clear reason, Catherine bent down and gave Jessica a light kiss on her small lips. She felt a soft, slightly tingly sensation on her lips. Jessica was stunned, looking at Catherine in confusion.
Catherine's face was also flushed, and there was nothing wrong. She looked at Jessica who was at a loss, and suddenly burst into laughter: "You were scared by me like this."
Then she climbed up: "I'm going to take a shower, you come back later, and then go to bed quickly."
As soon as she finished speaking, she had already entered the bathroom, and Jessica was still lying on the ground, a little dizzy, why did she feel like she was electrocuted just now?
After closing the bathroom door, Catherine, who was a little more awake, began to scratch her head with a headache: "Oh my God, what am I doing! Is this considered molesting a young girl!"
It's actually nothing for girls to kiss each other. Although most of them just kiss each other on the face, there are also kisses on the mouth. Catherine had such a big reaction, which was completely due to her way of thinking in her previous life.
But fortunately, after she calmed down, she looked up and saw herself in the mirror, and finally calmed down. Anyway, Jessica didn't seem to react much, so she should take a shower and go to bed quickly.
She took off her clothes in two or three steps. Perhaps because of the kiss just now, she was actually a little shy. Looking at herself naked in the dressing mirror, the few times in the past 11 years that she felt embarrassed came to her mind again. However, it seemed that something was wrong.
Catherine looked at the mirror carefully, then looked down at herself. The more she looked, the more she felt that something was definitely wrong. Her breasts seemed to be half a circle bigger. Could it be... Could it be that she was starting to grow? !
This thought hit her head like a thunderbolt. Although she didn't lose her ability to think, it also made her dumbfounded. For so many years, she didn't care much about becoming a girl because she was still young. Except for one important thing, her body was no different from that of a boy. But now that she had started to grow... She seemed to be able to see herself with big breasts and fat buttocks shaking her head and posing on the street! Catherine shuddered and shouted: "Absolutely not! I hope I will have a flat chest! A small butt! A big waist!"
But as soon as she said this, a weirder feeling came out of her heart. She blinked blankly, and the mirror looked blank. Then she suddenly jumped up in fear and kept shaking her hands at the mirror: "No, no, no! What I just said doesn't count!" - How could she curse herself!
After saying this, she found that the face of herself in the mirror was also filled with fear. She couldn't help but burst out with a bitter smile and rolled her eyes: "Damn it, I'm going crazy again!"
With a sigh, she finally calmed down a little and reached out to turn on the shower head. At this moment, with a click, the bathroom door opened again. Catherine screamed like the other girls, and curled up to protect her three points, which scared Jessica who came in.
"Cathy? What's wrong?" Jessica looked confused. She was sleepy after playing for a while, and she actually took a nap on the ground. Now she wanted to take a shower and go to bed.
"Oh my God, why did you come in without knocking?" Catherine's face turned red again, "What are you doing here?"
"Take a shower and sleep." Jessica shrugged and began to take off her clothes.
"Take a shower?" Catherine was shocked. Before she could say anything more, Jessica had already taken off all her clothes. She walked to Catherine's side and turned on the shower head. Her tender little body was completely naked. Although it was as flat as most children, her future figure could be vaguely seen.
Catherine couldn't say a word, her face was red all the way to her neck. In the past 11 years, she had never taken a bath with a woman other than her mother. Although Jessica was just a little girl like her, she would feel embarrassed at most if it happened normally, but just now she...
"Cathy, can you rub my back for me?" At this time, Jessica's voice came. Catherine, who had been hugging her arms and twisting her body, wanted to refuse but didn't know what to say. She had to close her eyes and press the towel on Jessica's back. Every time she touched her smooth skin, Catherine's heart beat for a while, and a desire kept growing in her heart. If she hadn't kept saying to herself: This is me, I'm rubbing my own back! God knows what would happen.
Finally, Jessica finished washing, and she dried her body with a bath towel. Because she was a little tired, she didn't pay attention to Catherine, said hello, and went out to bed. At this moment, Catherine, who had been gasping for breath, suddenly relaxed. She quickly took a shower, then turned on the light and went to bed. However, when she fell asleep, Jessica in the other bed had already talked a lot in her sleep.
