Chapter 1: Final Dress Rehearsal

"Megan and Sam, I'm going out!" Sarah yelled from the other room.

"OK, we have to go down to the theater soon too," I replied.

Dress Rehearsal.

Final Rehearsal. Tomorrow was opening night and it sold out immediately. I had been living in Sarah Jonas' apartment for about 4 months. We have gotten really close.

Samantha, a.k.a. Sam, was staying in Sarah's apartment too. She was play Cho Chang in the musical. She just turned 21 and was an amazing singer.

"Megan? I'm going to make some hot tea and then we can go, OK?" Sam asked.

"Sure, OK," I replied.

You left without a single word

not even sorry

it might have hurt it worse to hear you say

I'm leaving good bye

"Hello?"

"Hello beautiful."

"Hey Nick, what's up?"

"O not much, I was just wondering how my Broadway girl was," he asked.

"I'm good. Tonight's the final dress rehearsal and I'm kind of scared."

"Why are you scared?"

"Nick, I get stage fright so easily," I told him.

"I know."

"So what night are you coming to the show?" I asked him.

"I'm not telling," he replied.

"Nick…"

"Megan, it's going to be a surprise. So is my cousin there?"

"No she just went out."

"Have you guys been getting along?"

"Yep, I can't believe it's been 4 months since I moved here!"

"I know, and I haven't seen you in 5," Nick said.

"Well, you'll see me soon."

"When are you parents going?" Nick asked.

"Umm, no idea," I replied.

"That's fun," Nick said.

"Well, I think I should get going," I said.

"OK, call me later," he said. "I love you." I closed the phone and Sam and I walked out to her red convertible. My birthday was next month. And my birthday was Nick and my anniversary. I secretly hoped that he had something planned. Sam pulled into the back parking lot of the theatre and we walked inside. I took off my jacket and put it in my dressing room. I painted the walls a deep purple and had pictures of Nick and his brothers all over the room. I changed into my first costume and put my make-up on. I walked out into the hallway and saw Peter Thomas, the guy that played Ron Weasley. He was incredibly hot but I hated his guts. He was so stuck up and thought he was better than everyone else.

"Hey, Megan," Peter said, smiling at me and leaned on the doorway to his dressing room. "Do you want to go out tonight?"

"No, Peter…I have a boyfriend," I said, running down the hall to Sam's room. She came out of it, dressed and wearing make-up. "Come on, Sam. Peter's harassing me." Sam laughed and we walked towards the stage together.

I loved Broadway. The lights…the sound…the people…everything. When I sang my songs, I sang them with passion. When I danced, I danced like no other. And when I had my make-out scene with Peter, well…I made it look like I was kissing like no other. I hated it. He purposely ate disgusting food before the scene so I tasted it when I kissed him.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, we will be starting in 5 minutes," the director said. Sam and I put the finishing touches on our outfit when John Shepherd came over to us. John played Harry and had a huge crush on Sam, but she didn't like him. He wasn't nearly as obnoxious as Peter but Sam thought he was a stalker.

"Hey Sam," John said.

"Hi," she replied. We walked backstage when the orchestra started to play. The first act went smoothly. I liked the first act, it was the second act I couldn't stand. Peter spends the entire second act by my side and he doesn't leave. Before I knew it, it was time to kiss him. It was an incredibly intense kiss and very passionate. Pity I didn't have any passion.

His lips pushed hard against mine and I tried to make it look like I was enjoying it. He picked me up and started twirling me around. We sang our love song and ran offstage. He smirked at me and I ran to the bathroom to get mouthwash.

We took our final bows and then walked back onstage to get our notes from the director.

"Megan and Peter, you really need to get into the kiss more," the director said. Peter smiled at me and I groaned. Sam and I drove back to Sarah's apartment and went to bed. Tomorrow night was opening night and we needed rest.
