Chapter III
The practice was now well underway and it looked like they'd only have time for one more scene. That scene just happened to be the first with Sarah. It was the Beggars scene when Marius accidentally bumps into Cosette and it's love at first sight. Their shoulders brushed and they gazed upon each other. "I didn't see you there, forgive me," Jack sang, sincerely. The song ended, the scene ended, and practice ended. "Okay everyone take a seat," Mr. Vadden instructed to the cast. "Awesome beginning," he said. He went on to say some good things and some not so good. But all in all, he seemed pleased. "Oh Sarah-Charlotte.." She winced when she heard her name, praying to God that she wasn't in trouble. "Nice job in the Beggars scene. I like to see our new people starting on a good note." Sarah breathed, relieved. "Thank you, Mr. Vadden." She thought about what he said about "our new people." She wasn't new, a regular in the shows, though being in chorus, since freshman year. He had casted her for every show, but this time finally realized what she was capable of and "what he was missing out on," according to her parents. Jack gave her a smile, "See? You did fine, nothing to worry about." "Thanks, but I haven't even done anything yet," Sarah-Charlotte said. "Hey, you got through the first practice with praise from Mr. Vadden, that's pretty damn good if you ask me," Jack said. "Yeah, I guess you're right," Sarah said. "You know I am." Jack picked up his things, "See you tomorrow." "Okay Jack, seeya," Sarah said smiling. She turned to see Pat staring at her, shaking his head. "What?" Sarah said. "Okay Jack, seeeeyaa!!" Pat said in an overly- exaggerated way, fluttering his eyelashes. "Shut-up," Sarah said, punching him hard on the arm. "Ow," Pat said.
The next practice would continue where they had left off. It was time for "A Heart Full of Love". "You guys can try this and we'll fix things as we go,"Mr. Vadden said. The music started. Jack and Sarah sang the song. It was good, but was lacking something. "I'd like to see you two work on this. This is a beautiful song, about Marius and Cosette feeling this strange feeling they've never felt before." "What's that, Mr. Vadden?" Jack asked. "Love," Mr. Vadden and Sarah-Charlotte responded, at the same time. "Right. Sarah-Charlotte understands." Sarah looked at Jack when they got offstage. "I hope we can get this right." "We will, and it'll be great," Jack said. "How can you be so sure?" Sarah asked him. "Because, we sounded good together and I've watched you, you can act, we'll work on it, it'll be perfect."
Greetings everyone! I finally got 2 and 3 up!! Sorry for the delay! I hope you guys are liking it and wanting to read more! I have to work on chapter 4, so that'll probably take a while to get up. But, hopefully these 2 chapters will tie you over. Keep reviewing, I love to see what everyone thinks!
