"You're a really good singer." I tell Priscilla as we sit in my car, her mumbling along to the songs she chooses on the aux.

Tour had been going again for about two weeks and now we're in Denver.

"You think?" She asks with raised eyebrows.

"Yeah, you're really good."

It shocks me a little. Not because I've had some idea of her having a dreadful singing voice, but more because I haven't thought of it too much.

"Funny thing." Priscilla shrugs. "I used to be in this one musical for a few years."

My eyes widen. "Seriously?"

I've never loved musicals. Sometimes I enjoyed them, but not often. However I'd kill to see Priscilla in one.

"Yep. Tour's still happening but I did it for like two and a half years."

"No fucking way!"

"Yeah!"

Scilla looks really happy talking about this - it shocks me, honestly. She's such a sweet, shy person and so to hear of her starring in a theatre show is something unexpected.

I sit up a little straighter. "Well, what have you done?"

"No, you won't take me seriously." She waves me off.

I frown. Why wouldn't I take her seriously?

"Why wouldn't I take you seriously?"

She looks at me and bites her lip. "You know Phantom of the Opera?"

I nod slowly before it clicks.

"You played the lead in Phantom of the Opera?"

"I did."

My jaw drops. Phantom of the Opera is the longest running musical of all time. And features just that - opera music. Opera is very fucking hard to sing.

"You're lying!"

"I told you that you wouldn't take it seriously!"

"Well- I-"

She's got me there.

"It's Phantom of the Opera, Priscilla!"

"Yeah! And I was Christine!"

"...The lead?"

"You haven't seen it?"

"I'm not the biggest fan of the theatre." I shrug.

"There's a movie."

"Oh...well, no. Not seen either."

"Yes, Christine is the lead role."

"I don't fucking believe you." I laugh, taking her hand. "Sing me some opera."

"No!" Priscilla laughs back.

"Why?"

"Because...it's awkward here."

"You're proving my theory, angel." I tease and reach onto the dashboard for my phone.

"What're you doing?"

"Looking up the cast."

"It'll come up with the current cast. I did it ages ago."

"What year?"

"I...try 2019."

I do just that and search up the cast of the musical in 2019. Sure enough, my angel is right there - top of the cast list.

"Holy shit, Priscilla! How could you not tell us?" I ask excitedly, already clicking on clips of the show.

"Because it isn't importa- don't look at it!"

"I'm looking."

"Tom..." Priscilla groans.

"Priscilla..." I mimic her tone, moving closer and kissing her forehead. "I bet you're great."

And she was. I mean, the girl hit an E6 like it was nothing. And she looked so happy in the video in her white dress and curls on the stage.

"You're incredible."

"Thank you." The blonde accepts my compliment quietly and it's obvious that she didn't want to accept it but let's face it - if you're the lead singing opera on a stage for at least two years, you're doing something right.

We look at each other for a few moments and all I can think about is how much I want to kiss her. But we made a deal.
