The Stage (SS)

TW: None

Roman's POV

I look at the list to see who all is acting in the play.

Backstage- Logan, Leesha, Seth, Wendy, Mikalea

Props- Everyone

I look inquiringly at the sheet of paper. Who is V? I know the majority of these people as I've acted with some of them since middle school. But I have never heard of or seen anyone really that new that auditioned. Their name would have been called out, how did they get one of the leads if they didn't audition?

I walk up to director Mac.

"Mx. Mac?" I ask, they hum in response, "Who is V? When did they audition?"

"Oh! V is my friends son. He has severe anxiety issues so he auditioned after everyone left. Really good person, just shy and anxious." They smile to me.

"Does he go to this school?"

"Yes. He always has, he's just-" they grunt. I help them put the poster up, "-he's just really good at not being noticed." They smile a thanks. I nod and walk away.

Patton runs at me and basically tackles me to the ground, "YOU'RE A MAIN. AND I'M IN THE PLAY!"

"Yeah! Do you by any chance know how is playing Varn?"

"No idea. No one knows who V is. The entire stage is talking about them." Patton gives me a quizing look.

"We'll... I asked Mx Mac and figured out that he is the son of one of their friends and they auditioned after we left. I don't know much more."

"Alright! I'm excited to be their father."

I chuckle, "Yeah. Must be an experience."

"Let's go! Practice is starting." I smile and nod.

A few hours later

"Logan? Logan where are you?" Mx Mac calls out. A few kids join the search, two being me and Patton.

Just a few minutes later, Logan walks out of the backroom all sweaty and a slight smile grades his face. He tries to hide it but I can tell he's smiling.

"You needed me?"

"Yes. Were you in the backroom the entire time?"

"Indeed. I was getting some more things for the props."

"Oh alright." Mx Mac then goes to talk to him. The have a silent conversation before splitting off.

The clock chimes 6PM and every packs up to go home. I watch as Logan slips into the backroom and doesn't return.

A few days later

V's POV

"Log?" I ask quietly, approaching the stage area, "Are you ready?" Logan turns around and smile at me. He wipes his hands on his apron and pulls it over his head. We walk to the backstage area and hurry into a room behind the costumes.

"Where did we leave off?" He asks. We've only practiced twice so we aren't far.

"Rosey finds Varn in the woods and drags him out to Cast and Rocky." I tell him, looking over the script.
