interview (Jake Gyllenhaal x reader)
Summary: doing an interview with Jake Gyllenhaal is always fun.
“Tonight at the late night show we have not 1 but 2 amazing guests who were cast in an emotional thriller about 2 girls gone missing. Yes, you guessed it I’m talking about Prisoners. Please welcome (y/n) (y/l/n) and Jake Gyllenhaal.” People start clapping and you and Jake walk up the stage. Waving at the fans and greeting James. “Hi, thanks for coming on the show guys.” “No no, thanks for having us this is awesome.” You laugh back. “So guys tell us something about the movie.”
“So uhm the movie is about 2 girls that went missing on thanksgiving and a detective tries his best to find them. I’m letting Jake finish this because I know I’ll probably spoil the movie.” “Yeah you’re really good at that, aren’t you.” Jake laughs. “I can’t help it. It’s out of my control.” Everybody laughs along with you. “yeah uhm I play the detective Loki who is assigned to the case and in the movie we see how the families deal with the loss of the kids and how it effects the detective’s life. It’s really something different because not only is it a thriller but there are also a lot of emotions and we go deeper in what such an event does to a family and the people around them.”
“How was the atmosphere on the set? Did everybody get along and did you do pranks on each other?”
“Some scenes weren’t easy to film because they were so heavy and after those scenes the atmosphere was always like quiet and calm but luckily for us we had (y/n) on the set.” Jake quickly looked at you and then back to James. “really she always knew how to make those scenes less heavy and bring our spirits back up after.” James looked at you with a surprised face. “really so (y/n), tell us what did you do to cheer everyone up.” “I really don’t know what he is talking about right now.” You laugh and so does the public. “I don’t know, yeah I am always happy and when I messed up a scene I just yelled in frustration and everybody just laughed at how I got frustrated.” “When you’re frustrated you’re so adorable. It’s so funny because you just need a second and then you realize how stupid your mess up was and you just start laughing. Or when we do a serious scene and (y/n) is out of shot but she is in the scene, then I see her just looking at us and smiling, like who smiles when you ask the parents who just lost a child questions about the missing kid.” Jake jumped in.
“I just can’t be serious at serious situations it’s a curse really. And it was so funny to see you all serious when I know you are the exact opposite of that.” “And I will take that as a compliment to my acting skills.” Jake added with a big smile.
“Okey guys. I have some more questions but we kind of made a game out of it.” you and Jake look at each other with a fake nervous look and then back at James. “We are going to test how much you know about each other. So here are some writing boards and some markers. Now I’m going to ask you some questions about each other and you both write the answers down before showing them alright.”
You quietly murmur ‘al left’ and Jake bursts out laughing. James quietly chuckles to himself and the public laughs with you.
“yeah we got it.” you look at Jake. “I’m going to crush you.” “We’ll see about that.”
“okey, first question. What is Jake’s full name?”
“oh really, pff that’s easy.” You say while writing.
“Oh come on James I thought you were on my side in this.” Jake jokingly yelled.
“Let’s see, turn your answers. (y/n) what do you have?”
“Jacob Benjamin Gyllenhaal.”
“God dammit.” Jake faked and then started laughing.
“Next question, for Jake. What is (y/n)’s birthday.”
“If I get this wrong I’m going to hate myself.”
“Let’s turn those answers around.”
Jake looked at your board and laughed. “It’s (y/bd), I knew it!” he screams
You just laugh at his sudden outburst.
“Okey next what is Jake’s favorite book?”
“Oh come on James, give me something challenging.”
“She gonna know this one for sure.”
“Let’s see then.”
You turn your board around. “It’s ‘To Kill a Mockingbird.”
Jake turns his board around. “She’s right.”
“Jake what is (y/n)’s favorite food.”
You just start laughing an Jake looks at James with a fake angry look. “She love all kind of food how am I supposed to know which one’s her favorite?!”
The truth is you don’t really have a favorite so you start writing down your top 3. “Okey I’m writing down my top 3 because I don’t even know what to choose.”
Jake raises his hands and shoulders and just looks at James and the people with wide eyes. Then he starts writing.
“Jake, tell me what you got?”
“I wrote a few things okey, so here it goes. I think it would be pizza, hamburgers and cheesecake.”
“oh my god you did not.” You say with wide eyes and your hand over your mouth.
“what? What do you have?”
“you got it right. I wrote the same things.” You say happily and in shock while turning your board. Jake jumps up with his hand in the air and sits back down laughing.
“Next up what are the names of Jake’s dogs?”
“Oh no, I think I know but I’m not sure.”
“Are you serious, the names aren’t that difficult.”
“Well I know one but I’m not sure about the other and the names are weird.”
“show the answers when you’re ready.”
You turn your board around. “So I know one of them is Boo and that both names are from that book but the other one was tricky and I went with my instinct and think its ‘s Atticus.” You say quickly.
Jake just looks at you, no emotion on his face. “oh no, did I get it wrong?” you loudly ask.
“No you’re right. It’s Boo and Atticus.” He answers quietly.
You smile and stick your tongue out at him which he returns.
“One of the final questions. What was (y/n)’s first movie in which she played the lead?”
“If you know that I’ll be amazed because I don’t think I ever talked about it.”
Jake is quiet and starts writing. “Okey done.”
“Wait, you actually know this one?”
“Of course I do, before your final audition I checked all your work.”
“Oh no you didn’t.” “yes I did.” “that means you saw” “Yes, I saw that one too.” “oh no.” you place your head in your palms. Before you were a known actress you starred in some really embarrassing movie about some weird spaceship and you where one of the crew members who died because of some weird virus that turned you into an ape or something. You only took the role because you literally had no money.
“I feel like your fans should know this (y/n).” James laughed.
“They really don’t, just look for it you’ll find it, but please keep in mind that I was desperate and needed the money okey.”
Jake smiled and you gave him an annoyed look. “Well what’s your answer smart ass.”
“it’s Atonement.”
“yeah, you’re right, it is.”
“Final question about Jake. What role did he really want but didn’t get?”
“I Know 2 of them or maybe even 3.” You stated.
“You actually do? Wait 3 roles really, now I have to think.”
You write your answers down and wait for Jake.
“If you have 3 of them then just tell me because I can only think of 1 that I absolutely wanted.”
“Okey so I think the one you are least happy about is Frodo in ‘The lord of the rings’, then Batman in ‘Batman begins’ and the other one is a role in ‘The mighty ducks’.
“I wrote Frodo down but the other ones are also true actually.” He says surprised. “You know a little bit to much about me.” Now his face was filled with fake fear.
“I just listen to your stories when you talk.”
“Okey Jake if you get this one wrong you lose if you get it right you both win and are officially one of my favorite celebrity couples because you can’t know so much about each other without being an actual couple. Ready?”
“Yep ready, I can do this!” he yells.
“What is (y/n) biggest fear?”
“oh god I don’t think you ever told me this?”
“I don’t think I have. And that means I win.”
“No you won’t, I’ll get this one I just have to think.”
“okey big boy, take your time.”
“I got it, I go it, I know your biggest fear I think I know it.”
“Then tell me.”
“It’s dying or suffering a painful death because every fear anyone has is always because they think it could hurt or kill them.”
“What! How did you know that!”
“You told me one time when someone came to ask you for your help because there was a spider and you’re one of the only people of the cast that isn’t afraid of them.”
You just looked at him in shock for the umpteenth time that evening.
“You know what you two are officially married right now, you know way to many things about each other.” James interrupted and the crowd cheered. “That was it for tonight guys see you tomorrow.”
And with that the show was done. You and Jake stand up and give James a hand before returning to the guestroom.
“How did you remember the last question about me?” Jake smiled.
“How do you remember my biggest fear? That was months ago.” You add while taking your coat.
“I remember because I care about you and think you’re awesome and great to work with.”
“Well, maybe I think that about you too, maybe I think that you’re a great person and..” Jake stepped closer to you holding your gaze. Your words became quieter and eventually you stopped talking when he was close to you. His eyes switched from your eyes to your mouth. He closed in and your lips touched. You kissed him back and his hands found their way to your waist and you rest your hands on his chest. It left like seconds turned into ages, lost in each other. His tongue swiped over your lips and you responded by opening your mouth. His hand crept higher and onto the side of your face holding you close while your hands found there way around his neck, massaging the back of his head. You were interrupted by James when he walked by and saw that the door was open.
“I knew it! I knew this was going to happen.” He quickly left and ran to the fans waiting outside.
You and Jake parted and laugh about the fact that James just saw that. Both never letting go of each other. Jake looked in your eyes and spoke. “We should head outside otherwise James will probably tell everybody a bit more then the truth.” You laughed and he took your hand in his, walking out of the building and to the fans that were already cheering.
