Co-staring in a romcom with Pedro Pascal felt like a dream. You’re a successful actress with a sweetheart reputation. You never would’ve thought you’d fall for your colleague, a man 20+ years older than you. Was it his puppy brown eyes? The way he seemed to deeply care about everyone around him? Maybe it’s the lingering touches and hugs he gives you to tell you how great of a job you’re doing.. you didn’t know.

Unfortunately, Pedro had told the media countless times he’d never date someone 10 years younger than him, much less 20. Not only that, the media would have a hay day with the age gap between you. You knew you didn’t stand a chance, but the desire in your chest was getting too hard to ignore.

“I got you an iced latte.” His voice was deep, a hint of sleepiness from a late night. “Your favorite, lots of caramel.” Pedro grins softly, setting it down in front of the script you were looming over. Trying to take your mind off of your impending dilemma.
