The auditorium was filled with applause and cheers as everyone stood up, giving a standing ovation as the cast all took their final bow.

"Oh, my God, y'all." Kourtney said, entering the dressing room followed by Ricky. "Ricky's transformation."

"Wait. How'd it look?" Lauryn, one of the dancers asked, causing everyone to look at the duo in front of them with looks of hope.

"Honestly?" Kourtney said, looking back at Ricky causing them to nod as she turned back to the cast with a smile. "Passable!"

That caused everyone to clap and cheer as Soul walked in talking and laughing with Ashlyn.

"Hey! Give it up for our star." Nini called out, standing up causing everyone to cheer louder and clap, causing Soul to smile gratefully at the group.

"Aw, thanks guys!" Soul said, smiling from ear to ear as she let out a slight chuckle. "But it wasn't just me, you all were absolutely amazing."

"Aren't you the sweetest." Ashlyn said, placing her hand on the girl's shoulders before looking back at the cast. "Um, has anyone seen my boyfriend? It feels like I've been missing him all night."

"I think he pushed himself a little hard." Carlos said as everyone else looked around at each other.

"But I'm pretty sure he left a letter at your locker." Ricky explained.

"Uh, couple letters, actually." EJ corrected.

"Oh, okay, wow, that's sweet." Ashlyn said. "Um, maybe I'll read them on the way to Slices. Good show, everyone."

Everyone stayed silent as the girl walked past the group to hang her costume on the rack, hitting the flowers she got for Big Red before making her way out of the room.

Everyone quickly and quietly followed the girl, peaking out of the door, watching the couple talk.

"You were the perfect Madame de la grande tonight." Big Red said, holding a sign that spelled her name out in lights. "I was really proud. Even if it wasn't the main role."

"Come here, you evil genius." Ashyln said, crying, going to hug him but ran into the sign, causing the pair to both laugh, causing him to quickly move the sign, pulling her into a hug.

"Oh, wait. I just got paint..." Big Red said, letting go from the hug.

"It's okay." Ashlyn said, before quickly pulling him in for a kiss.

Everyone then went their separate ways as they began to leave one by one.

Soul finally finished applying her makeup as she quickly grabbed her bag, making her way out of the dressing room.

"Bye, Miss Jenn." Soul said, passing by the drama teacher sending her smile as she noticed a familiar brunette standing down the hallway. "Hey, Gaston!"
That caused EJ to turn around, causing her to send a smile along with a small wave as she made her way to him.
