Should I Say No To This?: Lin-Manuel Miranda and Jonathan Groff
Jonathans POV:
As I sat in the car with my best friend, Lea, I start to go over my song and lines in my head. I'm not sure what's wrong with me, but there's something about this audition thats making me particularly nervous. I never get nervous before an audition!
Lea looks over at me, she can tell I'm panicking about this situation. "Hey," she says grabbing my hand, "Everything is going to go great. You're gonna be fantastic as always. You have nothing to worry about."
"Thank you, Lea. I'm not sure why I'm so worried about this audition. Maybe it's something about the historical aspect. I'm not sure, whatever. I'll call you when I'm done and I'll tell you how it went. "
We pulled up to the performance space where the auditions were being held. I gave Lea a quick hug and a 'thank you' for giving me a ride. I grabbed my resume and headshots and walked to the door.
"Break a leg!" Lea shouted through the window before taking off.
I walked into the foyer to less people than I expected. I can't tell if this is a good thing or a bad thing. Better chance of getting a role? Or is the script awful? Either way, I try to think positively.
I walk a little bit further into the building. Immediately my eyes lock on this beautiful man across the room from me. He has long brown hair slicked back into a ponytail, a goatee, and the most dazzling eyes I've ever seen on a man. He looks my direction and catches me looking at him, I look away as fast as I can and try to play it off.
Apparently it didn't work because before I knew it he was walking towards me.
He reached out to shake my hand. God, his hands were so soft.
"Hey there! I'm Lin-Manuel. I haven't seen you around! What's your name?"
Oh, God. Oh, God. What do I do? Tell him your name you idiot.
"Um, Jonathan. My name is Jonathan. Yeah, I'm new. Well to this theatre, at least."
I sound so stupid.
"Oh, nice. I love new people. Let me show you around!" Lin takes a look at my sheet. "Great, your audition isnt until 2. We have some time. Follow me."
A million thoughts are rushing through my head. Oh God, what have I gotten myself into?
AN: Hi Guys! This is my first fanfic on this couple, hopefully this goes the way I want it to. If you're a little confused, this is based around the musical 'Hamilton'. Jon Groff and Lin-Manuel are two cast members. Please review & give feedback for anything you'd like to see happen in the story! xoxo
