Ivan - Actor AU

Iván and Till are a couple; they recently moved into a small apartment together. Their love story began on the set of "Alien Stage," where they gradually developed chemistry and their relationship slowly became complicated.

After filming wrapped on "Alien Stage," Till quickly landed new roles thanks to his acting skills and extensive experience. Ivan, on the other hand, was a newcomer and couldn't find any work, not even on small projects.

Today was a rainy day. Ivan went out at 6:00 AM to try his luck with a role; he swears he did well... but they ended up rejecting him, as always, for the same reason he hated so much: "something was missing." He arrived at the apartment around 5:49 PM... And something else? Till wasn't answering his messages or calls; he must be busy, Ivan thought. The cold, empty house was what was really dampening his already low spirits.

He went to take a shower and then went to cook something to eat, because he hadn't even had breakfast that morning since he was running late for his audition. The rain outside was relaxing... it was a shame his apartment was on the top floor and that his roof leaked; the sound of the dripping water was torture. Ivan took a break from cooking to look for a bucket to catch the dripping water.

To top off this shitty day, a smell in the kitchen snapped him out of his reverie; the food was burning.

• Shit!! Ivan said as he ran to the kitchen

What would happen now that would ruin his day even more?
