Ok I want to know do people reading the story want Jack and Karen to get together at last as a couple, or to carry it on as they are until I find a good ending please let me know, so I know what to write as it is your story as well as mine! thanks –x-

One month on, it had been a good month; Jack knew his lines, dance moves and songs and was loving the theatre.

Karen and her mum were getting along like nothing ever happened, they still hadn't brought up Simon but Karen thought it was best not to in case it ruined there relationship, she had even introduced her to will and grace and all 4 had been out to dinner with Lois a few times, everything was going great, and it was now the night of the performance.

The night of the performance

Karen, will and Grace sat in the front row of the theatre waiting for Jack to appear on stage. They waited for another ten minutes when all of a sudden the lights went down and everyone went silence,

'This is so exciting' Karen whispered to Grace, just then the curtains went up and the show started.

After the show while people were leaving Karen will and Grace waited at the front of house waiting for Jack, when a man walked up to them, he looked about late twenties

'Hello are you with Jack?' he asked

'Yes we are' Karen replied

'Well he asked me to send you to his dressing room'

'Ok thanks' Karen said

'Oh by the way Jack was really good' the man said then walked off.

In Jack's dressing room

Jack was sitting in his dressing room in front of the big mirror when the other three entered

'There's my star' Karen said walking up to him and hugging him

'Thanks Kare' he replied, he then hugged will and Grace 'thank you all for coming'

'Jack you know what you were really good' Grace said

'Thanks'

'You have done us proud' will continued

'Thanks for the support' Jack said just then there was a knock at the door 'come in' Jack said. An old man came in followed by as younger man

'Hay Gary' Jack said 'guys this is my producer Gary'

'Hello' Gary said to the others 'Jack I want you to meet Steve, he is also a producer'

'Hello' Jack said shaking his hand

'Hello Jack I would like to congratulate you on your performance it was really good'

'Thank you'

'I actually have a proposition for you, after this show has finished in this theatre, I'm doing a musical guys and dolls and after seeing you out there tonight I would really like to cast you as a main character if you want to' Steve explained

'Are you kidding I would love to' Jack said smiling from one ear to the other

'Ok well I will call you nearer the time to give you a script and production schedule' Steve said the shook Jack's hand one more time before leaving with Gary.

'Oh my god did you hear that' Jack said

'Oh poodle well done' Karen said as he hugged her tightly

'Thank you Karen'

'What for?'

'This whole thing would never have happened without you'

'Honey I just got you a part in Chicago, it's your acting that's got you further'

'I know' he said hugging her tightly again

'Wow Jack looks like we under estimated you these years, you really can be an actor' will said

'I know, nothing is going to spoil this now, we are all happy everything has worked out this year for us, nothing will spoil this year' Jack said, just then Karen's mobile phone rang

'Hello' she said answering it 'what…..oh my god'……
