"Usa, please sit. You're wearing a hole in the carpet."
"I'm sorry Ames. I'm just worried about this part. They haven't called in three days.
What if I don't get it? Do you think they call you just to let you know that you didn't get
it? Why are they taking so long?" she rambled, still pacing around her apartment.
"Usagi, sit! You're making me sea sick," she sat, "Have you tried calling them?"
"At least three times everyday, but I just get redirected elsewhere."
"I know what you need. A girl's day out. Come on, my treat. We'll get ice
cream."
"No thanks. I don't want to leave just in case they call."
"You refusing ice cream? Now I'm worried. Usa, you need to chill."
"I can't! I just want this part so bad!" she said, worrying her hands.
The phone rang. Both girls stared at it. It rang again.
"Usa, answer it."
"I can't! I'm too scared!"
It rang a third time.
"Quick before they hang up!" Ami yelled in excitement.
"Hello?" Usa breathed into the phone, "This is she."
"...."
"Yes."
"Uh-huh," she frowned.
"...."
"But I..."
"Alright."
"...."
"Yes, tomorrow will be fine."
"...."
"Thank you," she hung up.
"Well?" Ami practically screamed in excitement, bouncing around in her seat.
"Tomorrow, I have to pay the light bill."
"Oh."
"You know, you're right Ames. Let's go out. I do have an answering machine. If they call, they call. It's driving me nuts just sitting here."
"Great! Grab your coat, let's go!"
She numbly got up and went to the closet to fetch her coat. She was digging in her purse for her keys when the phone rang again. She glanced at Ami, who just shrugged.
"Hello," she answered on the second ring, "Yes this is her."
"...."
"Yes."
"...."
"I understand," she glanced at Ami again, who gave her a quizzical look. Usa only shrugged.
"No, that's not a problem. When?"
"...."
"Thank you."
"...." There was a long pause as Usagi listened to the other person.
"Yes sir. Thank you again," she hung up.
Minutes past as Usagi stared at the phone. Ami was dying to know who was the person that called, but didn't want to disturb Usa. She coughed lightly.
Usagi turned and gave Ami a tearful half smile. Ami's heart sank.
"Oh Usa, I'm so sorry."
"I got the part," she whispered.
"What?"
"I got it."
"Got what?" Ami asked, having not heard her whisper.
"I got the part! I got it! Oh my goodness! I'm Christine! I got the part! Yes!" She exploded, grabbing Ami and dancing with her around the apartment.
"Now, this calls for ice cream! Let's go!" she told her blue haired friend.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She approached the auditorium once again. This time she grinned when she saw everyone on the stage. She had landed the starring role, her life long dream. She was Christine. Her grin widened as she thought this again for the hundredth time that week.
"Ah, Usagi, welcome back!" Quatre greeted her when she reached the stage. "Come and I'll introduce you to everyone."
She nodded and grinned again. Looking around, she noticed that most of the cast was sitting in a circle on chairs, but a few of the guys were standing.
"Well Miss Daae," Quatre began, using her character name with a wink, "This here is your new best friend, Mina Aino. She's playing the part of Meg." Usa smiled at the blond haired girl, who smiled in return.
"The gentleman next to her is Trowa Barton, who's playing the role of Monsieur Firmin."
"Hello," Usagi said. He nodded in return.
"Wufei Chang is playing Monsieur Andre," Quatre indicated the dark haired man standing behind, and a few feet away from, Trowa. Wufei glared his acknowledgement.
"Duo Maxwell is playing the role of Ubaldo Piangi."
"Hey good looking," Duo winked, making Usagi blush.
"Relena Peacecraft is playing the role of our prima donna, Carlotta Giudicelli." The dark blond smirked at Usagi and gave her the once over.
'Well she fits her part.' Usa thought.
"Lita Kino, on her left," he indicated, "Is playing the role of Madame Giry."
"Hey nice to meet you Usagi!," Lita grinned.
"You too." Usagi returned with a smile.
"And last but not least, your two love interests, Heero Yui and Mamoru Chiba. The Phantom and Raoul."
Mamoru smiled and walked over to take Usagi's hand and kiss it. "Welcome," he whispered. She blushed again and looked toward Heero, who stared back at her hard.
She smiled at him and said, "Hello."
"Hhn."
"Umm..." she began. Not sure of what to say to that.
"Oh don't worry about him Usagi. He's a stick in the mud," Mina began cheerfully, "And to think that he can act!" she laughed.
"Alright," Quatre started, gaining everyone's attention, "I'll give you all an hour to help Usagi find her way around here and get to know you guys. We start at act one after that! Be prepared!" he finished, dismissing them all.
