The shooting of the day ended exceptionally quickly and everyone knew that the reason was the sharp exchange between Radosz and Różycki. The producer and director clashed in public to create an unprecedented and difficult situation for all. It is true that the producer apologized and admitted that the misunderstanding was due to him, but everyone saw that Różycki did not have such unlimited power and influence as he wanted everyone to believe.
Therefore, this discussion undermined the director's authority, and everyone was aware of it, including Różycki himself. It is true that he saved his face, but as long as Radosz stays on the set, the director's power will be very much endangered. Yet everyone knows a ship cannot have two captains.
Rafał Brylski, however, did not care about this situation at all. In fact, not being a professional actor, he knew neither the manners on the set nor the hierarchy of importance. He was supposed to listen to the dir
Ok, Rafał took the first step, he said it, but he didn't hear laughter. Not yet. But the first piece of information was not that shocking either.Damian Radosz was not a professional filmmaker, but he must have guessed that it is not easy to find the right romantic emotions when dozens of people from the film crew look at you. The kiss was something intimate, so if someone was not an experienced actor, they may have a problem with it.Many actors have the same problem, but everything passes over time.“You have nothing to worry about. As you get more experience on set, you'll be kissing like a pro. All you need to do is feel comfortable enough to bring up your emotions and real-life experiences.”So Radosz thought exactly as Rafał had predicted. He approached the matter in terms of a filmmaker. He assumed that the only problem with Brylski was his lack of experience on the set.But in the case of Rafał it was not the point at all!
"Of course you didn't! Your sexual orientation doesn't matter at all!" hotly assured Damian, and every word he said carved its way into Rafał's heart. "Everyone has the right to be who they are and it has nothing to do with work! It was Różycki who made the mistake, because he should have informed you well in advance what kind of scene he expected. He can't blame the actor for not being able to fulfill his whims immediately. An actor is also a man who needs time to get into the mood of the scene. I asked, because if Róźycki didn't know, the way he treated you proves he's an incompetent asshole, but if he knew, we could talk about intentional discrimination and…""He didn't know" quickly repeated Rafał blushing even more. Did Damian really not mind that Rafał was asexual? Did he not find it funny? "It's not something I would brag about to others.""I understand," Radosz admitted. His voice was natural and his smile was warm, not mocking. "Thank you
Being so different from everyone else was neither easy nor pleasant for Rafał. He really wanted to be like the others, but there was nothing he could do about it. Despite many attempts to rekindle the flame inside him, he just wasn't interested in any woman, not even the most beautiful one. Neither was a man, because that was something Rafał had tried too.His interest in sex with any particular person was nil.Unable to change this, Brylski had to accept his otherness and the fact that he was inferior to others, handicapped. That he was someone people would laugh at if they found out he felt no sexual attraction. Impotent was a really painful word.Especially since Rafal was not impotent. He was as responsive as possible to any physical stimuli, only he did not feel attracted to any particular person and even when he felt desire, he preferred to satisfy it himself rather than have to be in contact with another person.People, however, did not take the tr
“You should stay at the hotel,” Damian turned to the actor without breaking his fast march.“No way. If help is needed, every pair of hands will count.”“But...”Damian wanted to explain to him that in this weather, with such strong wind, lightning and maybe a huge downpour, it might be too dangerous for Rafał on the set. He wanted to explain to him that as an actor, he should seek shelter for himself and not expose himself to injury. But...Radosz saw determination in Brylski's eyes. The green flames burned with willpower. Rafał was not the fragile, naïve child or lamb that Damian had thought him to be at the beginning of their acquaintance. Rafał was a strong man with an even stronger will.On top of that, Brylski was right. If help was needed in securing the plan, every pair of hands would be useful.“Let's go!” Damian decided.There was no reason to delay. The wind was so strong
Anita instinctively wanted to refuse the invitation, but thought about the fact that the atmosphere around Rafał was not very good at the moment, so if she started to discourage people from coming to them, the situation could become even more unpleasant.“Fine” she agreed. “Thank you. But only until Rafał returns...”“That is enough” Marzena smiled charmingly and they both went towards the door of the restaurant.***“Look out!” shouted Rafał and pulled Damian so suddenly that he did not even have time to react. All he could do was fall inertly onto Brylski.A metal sheet with a metallic sound flew over their heads.What had actually happened? Damian blinked his eyelids as he looked into the mesmerizingly green eyes of Rafał Bryslki, whom he had under him. What had happened? Had Rafał just saved him?Time suddenly slowed its course. It flowed so slowly, as if it were actually standing st
The Little Match Girl was cold. She was so cold that she slowly turned into an icicle. She had only a few matches to warm herself, whose faint flame gave the illusion of warmth only for a few moments, too short to give hope.This cold did not come only from the snow and frost, on which the poor child had to stand, mute begging for help. Or perhaps the girl no longer had the strength to beg, not at that moment, when the last match went out?Human indifference was the greatest coldness. Hundreds, maybe thousands of people passed her by completely ignoring the child who was dying of loneliness, cold and hunger on the street. Why should they pay attention to her? Why should they spoil the joyful mood of Christmas by looking at a dirty, emaciated beggar? It was easier to look away and pretend not to see her.Some might say that those were the times. Back then, everyone was poor and couldn't afford to help a lonely, neglected child. Now
It was...Sparks of electricity ran from Rafał's mouth and tongue straight to his brain causing a short circuit. His brain turned out completely white and empty, but his tongue sought out Damian's tongue to entwine with it in a passionate dance.Rafał felt Damian's arms on his back. First on his back, and then on...“Uhm...” Brylski groaned uncomfortably and felt his consciousness begin to return. He broke the kiss and lowered his head, resting it heavily on Radosz's chest. His breathing was equally heavy.He was dizzy. From happiness. From shame. From desperation.Tears streamed down his cheeks.The experiment had worked.Rafal really wanted Damian.His heart, his mind and... his body wanted him.“I'm sorry” he said quietly freeing himself from Radosz's embrace and having turned so that he couldn't see his face, he walked away a few steps. “Give me a moment.”“Are you...?
Marzena Skierska was very kind to Anita Janiszek. Her cordiality surprised Rafał's friend. She approached the actress with some distance, expecting that she would want to get some information from her about Brylski. But that did not happen. After a few minutes Anita eased her suspicions and decided that Marzena really only needed someone's company.The hotel where they stayed was not top class, but it was the only one of such high class in this small town. That was why not all of the set's employees stayed here overnight, but only some of them. Marzena's assistant also had a room here, but perhaps she was currently somewhere in the city, or Skierska simply wanted to talk to a new person.Anita, however, was unable to be a good conversational companion today. She continually glanced nervously at the window through which she could see the entrance to the hotel. Although the torrential downpour that had broken up limited her visibility, Janiszek couldn't focus on anything
WARNING! THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS SOME HURSH SCENES. NOT ADVISED FOR MINORES. PLEASE BE WARNED.“Rafal, are you okay?” Mońka asked thoughtfully. “Aren't you too hot? It's hot again... Listen, the preparations will take a few more minutes, go to the shade, sit down and drink some water.”“I don't…” Brylski wanted to resist, but he was really a bit too hot in his dark, thick costume. “All right. Thank you” he agreed.It seemed that his leaving the set did not cause any sensation. It was true that Radosz led him away with his eyes, but Mońka, who had just approached the director, apparently explained everything.Rafal sat down in the shade and immediately someone handed him a bottle of cool water. He thanked kindly surprised that it was not Anita, but Marzena Skierska's assistant. He even asked about it.“Anita?” the girl answered. “She had just received a call and went aside to tal
Exactly right. Justyna may have been the ideal, but she wasn't Rafał. If he had to compare them both...“She is...” no, Damian couldn't put it into words at that moment. He could not, having Brylski with him. He shook his head helplessly. “You are like a lightning that pierced my mind and body. This electric shock...”Rafał stretched out his hand to him, but he did not touch Radosz. He lacked boldness.“I know we can't be a couple,” he announced, and there was resignation in his voice. “I never expected that. I am grateful for what I have received from you so far. Without it... I would never have had the pleasure of sex.”Damian's heart squeezed with pain. Don't let Rafał talk like that! Don't let him see himself in such darkness and Radosz in such light, because that is not true!But are you sure?“Never say never.”Rafał laughed upon hearing this expletive. He changed his p
How it was that Damian was now standing in front of the door of Rafał's room, he himself could not understand. Nor could he understand why his heart was beating so hard when he knocked on that door. Damian felt as if he had suddenly, without knowing at what point, lost control of reality.The door opened and Damian saw two bright green jewels sparkling like stars. Two meadows bathed in spring sunlight, full of joy and life. Two mystical green flames.Something happened, something strange. Something squeezed Radosz's heart, burning it to the temperature of molten iron. Reason left him suddenly, all thought left him, and like a gaunt animal he threw himself at Rafał's ponderous mouth, parted in astonishment.The door closed behind Damian with a slam. Did he close it or did Brylski? It didn't matter. What mattered were the gentle yet strong arms that embraced him passionately and the nails he felt even through his shirt.Rafał was asexual? That had to be a j
Pushed against the wall, Jakub groaned, letting the air out of his lungs. It didn't hurt, what not, it was shock and excitement that shook his body, not the actual impact or pain.“No, not here...” he asked desperately, but his words were lost in Różycki's hungry mouth.Jakub Wolak did not know whether the director did not hear him, did not understand, or simply ignored him, because Różycki's hand was already reaching for the waistband of his pants.The young actor looked around. Here, in some side alley, a small street somewhere behind the apartment buildings, no one should see them. Even if someone did spot them, in the falling dusk, where no streetlights reached, no one should recognize them. Yes, they shouldn't, but if someone sees them, if someone recognizes them?Jakub was shaken by a thrill of simultaneous fear and excitement. He was afraid of being recognized and of the scandal that would ruin his life, but he also felt s
Rafal really wanted to sleep with a woman. He wanted to see if he would be able to feel the pleasure of intercourse with another person. Marzena's foot that was playing with his intimate zone did quite a good job and Brylski's manhood came alive.In that case, maybe he could actually satisfy his partner and himself? After all, he was not impotent. His manhood was alive and becoming more active under the caress. There would be no problem putting it where it needed to be and doing what needed to be done and the way it needed to be done. Rafał knew the practice. He would definitely give Marzena pleasure. He would definitely bring her to orgasm. He himself should too...But there was ice in Rafal's mind and heart. Even for a moment he couldn't ignite the passion inside himself. The extremely beautiful and sexy actress was no temptation for him.Brylski could have gone to bed with Marzena. He could have made his own, but it would have been an empty physical act where
Inside the bar it suddenly got much warmer, maybe even too warm.Rafał shook his head. 'Focus,' he admonished himself. 'Don't fantasize! Focus on the here and now! On this, or rather on someone you have in front of you!' And in front of him Brylski had a beautiful woman who was his on-screen partner and who had invited him to dinner to strengthen their camaraderie. It would be rude to ignore her and think about someone else.The young actor dismissed the hot memories from himself.“You know, Rafał, today I saw you in a completely different light “Marzena brought him back to reality. He looked at her more carefully and it seemed to him that the actress was more open towards him than usual, even including today. “You were very manly.”“Really?” he was surprised.“At first sight you seem weak, but today you showed that if the situation demands it, you can be very strong. If I was being blackmailed, I think I w
His mother should see him happy. She should be able to sit his child on her lap. But if Damian marries solely for her sake, he will hurt not only himself, but more importantly, Justyna and the child that may come from their union.“What's going on there? I don't think it's Mom?”Radosz turned his head toward the woman speaking. Danusia, who had just come in, was pale with fear.“No, it's her neighbor” he explained.“Oh, God...!”Justyna stood right behind her, equally anxious and pale. Beautiful and good, too good for Damian to look at without feeling ashamed.He lowered his head.“Damian, are you all right?” Justyna asked quietly. “You didn't sleep well that night and you had no appetite...”“I'm fine," he said. “Don't worry about me. I have had a few stressful, intense days, but once Mom gets out of the hospital everything will be fine. It's already bette
In the evening Justyna cuddled up to Damian. He put his arm around her. That was all.Justyna tried to touch his lips with hers, but Damian turned his head away.“I'm sorry," he said. “I'm too worried about mom...”That was only half true. Yes, he was worried about his mother, but somewhere in the depths of his mind and heart there was some strange dam saying that getting close to Justyna was not a good idea. That dam strangely brought to mind a spring meadow strewn with flowers and decorated with dew, reminiscent of tears...Damian had no idea what was happening to him. Why he couldn't honestly and sincerely embrace the woman he was engaged after all.He hesitated before he could say the word 'love' and again it seemed strangely insincere.Justyna did not see anything else in his behavior. She understood that the situation, where his mother had undergone a second heart attack and a stent operation, did not inspire physical
Marzena was somewhat confused.The man Rafał spoke to seemed to be an old acquaintance of his, someone who knew him very well, and yet it seemed that he did not know him at all.That in itself was not so intriguing, but the man accused Brylski of being impotent, and that was already quite a bit of information.Rafał Brylski impotent? Impossible! I mean, Marzena had never seen him in any intimate situation, but he had never seen her in such a situation either, so there was nothing to worry about.Nevertheless, the accusation made by Brylski's friend made a clear imprint in the young actress' imagination.Rafał Brylski impotent? Intriguing, really intriguing.Even if the statement wasn't true, it definitely caught her attention, and if such a rumor went viral in the media, Skierska was convinced that it would ignite doubt in the minds of many people as to whether Rafał really had everything right with his manhood.Is that why Brylski st
