I don't own Phantom of the Opera or any of its characters. I only own Cosarine Carion and Jay.
I used the watch to find the way out once more. If all goes well, I would live my dreams of being trained by Erik Destler. Every POTO fan's fantasy.
I landed in the school bathroom and thanked God that no one was in there. I changed back into my normal clothes and walked to the sink. I rubbed my eyes to make them irritated and dabbed some water down my cheeks to make it look like I was crying.
I smirked into the mirror before putting on a sad face and walking back to class. Mr. Webbins nodded at me as I took my seat.
"Now before class ends, our next project will be our Broadway unit. We will be learning the song Seize the Day from Newsies. In a week everyone can audition for leads. Also, Mrs. Hernandez wants me to let you know that auditions for Heathers will be in a month. You are dismissed." The bell rang and everyone began to chatter and pack their bags.
Samantha Jones passed walked towards me with her disciples walked towards me. "So Cosa? Are you going to audition for the ensemble again this year? I mean I know Jay or Andrew will get JD, I'll just have to be Veronica." The girls behind her snickered.
"Actually I think I will audition for Veronica Sawyer this year. But, you can try Heather Chandler. She's a bit closer to your personality." I smiled a fake smile at her and shoved a flyer in bag.
"That may be true, but at least I know I can do better than you." I glared at her and walked out of class. Just as I reached the door, Samantha called out to me. "Say hello to Jay for me!" I didn't turn to look back at her and instead kept walking towards my next class, which happened to be with Jay. He met me at the door and walked with me into the class.
"Hey Cosa! Samantha texted me that the school is going to do Heathers! I think I am going to try for JD. What do you think?" He made a weird brooding face.
"I think that we are gonna get a lot closer to me than to Samantha." I looked at him and smiled. "I'm auditioning for Veronica." He smiled and positioned himself closer to me and looked down at me.
"Our love is God."
I smiled and hugged him.
"You're the best friend anyone can ever have." He chuckled. "I know."
We sat down at our desks in the back as class started. It was my Theatre 101 class. Ms. Demal stood at the front of the auditorium with her mic attached to her shirt. "Good morning everyone! Am I right to assume that Mr. Webbins spilled the beans?" A few of the kids around me nodded.
She sighed. "Well might as well give you all the information now! The school is using this Heathers production as a sort of showcase for you all. Colleges and talent agents will be there. This is your chance to show your the art world. Take it." Kids laughed and cheered. Jay leaned over and high-fived me.
"Auditions done have to be solo. You can pick and choose partners for certain parts. Educate yourself."
I gestured between the two of us and he nodded. The rest of the audition rules stand. Provide your own music. Be here on time. Signups will be posted in a month. Practice until then. Now let us get onto the Scottish tragedy." I zoned out of the lecture on the analyzation of the dagger and how one would perform it.
I texted Jay under the table.
Me:I have a teacher now.
Jay: Oh? Do I know this mysterious teacher? This is very Dave of you.
Me: Some guy my parents hired for me.
I lied to him. I never lie to him. My only friend besides God himself.
Jay: Well now at least I have a worthy Veronica lol. : p
I smiled at him and tucked phone away. I will have to see Erik tomorrow. This is my only chance.
