Forever

Chapter 7

(one week later)

You're pacing back and fourth with Dante.
"what's taking so long it's been a week" you said worried.
"i don't know, normally i hear back the morning of the day a week from the audition" Dante said also very worried.
"we didn't get in, that's it, that has to be it" you say throwing your hands in the air.
"well maybe they just forgot??" Dante said .
"Dante how can they just forget, this is literally their job" you say pacing faster than before. "the only explanation is that we didn't get in" you say planting your face in your bed.

*ding*

Both of you look over at Dante's computer.
You look at eachother and then run to the computer.
"Dante it's the email, this is it"
"i can't read it y/n!" he said nervously turing away.
"i'll read it for you" you say.
You open the email and start reading aloud.

"Dear Dante Albidone, you performed the part of Young Klaus extraordinarily. You are exactly what we were looking for so it is our pleasure to announce that you have received the role of Young Klaus and we look forward to working with you. We'll see you Monday for a read through of the script."

"no way" Dante says in disbelief "i got the part........ I GOT THE PART" he yells.
"DANTE IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU" you say while you bring him in for a hug.
"wait well what about you??" he says worried.
"i didn't get an email, but don't worry about me. YOU GOT THE PART!!" you say trying to direct the attention away from yourself.
"idk y/n, i'm happy but it doesn't feel right to celebrate since you didn't get in."
"Dante don't worry about me, i'm fine, most people don't get the roll from their first audition anyways so it was kinda expected" you say while shrugging your shoulders.
Just then...

*ding*

You and Dante both look over to see a new email on your computer.
You both stand there not knowing what to do.
"go check it" Dante says.
"i can't move" you stand there completely still.
"i guess i'll check it" Dante says.
Dante opens the email and reads...

"Dear y/n y/l/n, you are an extraordinary actress and we were all amazed at how good you were at acting, unfortunately you don't quite seem fit for the roll of Young Vanya"

Your heart drops.
"oh"
"wait there's more" Dante said.

"but we couldn't let your talent go to waste so we wrote in a character specifically for you, you will be playing the roll of Number 8, Fives love interest. You and Five will not have real names like the others, we hope you accept our offer to play the roll of Number 8 and we hope to be seeing you on Monday for a read through."

"y/n.... you're in The Umbrella Academy!!! maybe not as the part you wanted but still!"
"this is better than being young Vanya!! THEY WROTE ME IN MY OWN ROLL!" you yelled in excitement.
"bro we're gonna be working together" Dante said.
"this is gonna be awesome!!!" you exclaimed.
Just then you grab your phone and call your mom.
"hey mom" you say.
"hey sweetie, did you hear back about the audition yet?" she asked.
"yeah i did."
"and??"
"i didn't get the roll of Young Vanya" you say faking your disappointment.
"oh sweetie it'll be ok" your mom said trying to comfort you.
"yeah it will be mom, because they wrote me in my own roll!" you say excitedly.
"NO WAY!!!" your mom yells through the phone "THATS MY BABY GIRL, ohhhhh i can't wait to shove it in Melinda's face that my daughter is better than hers, you're gonna be famous!!!"
"yeah" you say with a chuckle.
"sweetie i'm so proud of you!!"
"thank you mom" you say with a smile on your face "i'll talk to you soon, bye."
"bye hon" she says as you hang up the phone.
