Jasmine + Anthony Forever and a Lifetime

-5-

Hey guys! Just letting you know that I might do some time skips, but I will try not to! Thanks for reading! (Also we are ignoring the fact that this picture is from after Hamilton)

Jasmine's POV:

            It had been a week since me and Anthony became exclusive, well to ourselves at least. To the cast we were still "waiting to happen" as Leslie said. We were nearing our first official Hamilton performance for the public, which is why Ant and I had decided we were going to break the news. Only 1 more day of secret kisses, secret 'I love you's', and secret meetings before and after rehearsals. Tomorrow also happened to be Valentine's Day, making it the perfect time to spill the beans. I started to stress thinking about the fact that the show was only four days away from our big debut. Was I really ready for this? Anthony must've noticed because he wrapped his arm around me and kissed my temple. "I love you," he reminded me.

            "I love you too, Ant," I replied.

            "Can I ask you something?" He queried, seeming a little nervous.

            "Yeah...what's up?" I answered.

            "What are we? I know we have said we love each other and everything, and we were gonna 'break the news' to the cast tomorrow, but what IS the news? Are we dating, do we just love each other, are we nothing, are we boyfriend and girlfriend? What is your HONEST take?" Anthony wondered. I sat and thought for a moment.

            "Here's the thing, Ant. I love you, and we love each other. And I would be honored to call you my boyfriend, but at the same time, I know what Nathan will try to do to us if we become official." I explained, fighting back tears.

            "Oh Jaz, baby, please don't cry mi amor," Anthony exclaimed in a sweet manner.

            "I'm s-sorry, Ant." I muttered, having a battle with my emotions. He said nothing for a while. He just pulled me into a hug and then gave me a slight kiss. I loved him so much but that was the problem. I couldn't bear to see Nathan hurting the love of my life. 

            "Don't let him control your life. You are beautiful, amazing, and inspire me everyday. Don't let him decide who you want to or don't want to be with. Don't let him make you feel inferior. If he is to do something, we will get it under control, together. Because I love you, and there's no way I will let anything break us apart." Anthony assured me. I just cried. I felt like a baby. But I felt relieved knowing that he didn't get angry like Nathan would've.

           "Let's do it. Anthony Ramos Martinez, will you be my boyfriend?" I asked. He pulled me into a passionate kiss, definitely our most so far.

            "I would be honored, Jazzy," He smiled.

Lin's POV:

           It was February 14th. The day of love. Vanessa had gotten me a CD signed by one of my favorite rappers. I was so happy. As happy as I was, we still had rehearsal since we opened in three days. I arrived at The Public an hour before I was expecting anyone just to work on some rewrites and whatnot. A while later, I heard some playful giggling and commotion in the hall. Who was here at this hour? I peered out of the door to see Anthony and Jasmine holding hands and going to Anthony and Oak's dressing room. What the heck were they doing? And was that HAND HOLDING?! I followed them discreetly and peeked in the room to see them not just giggling now, but MAKING OUT. Don't get me wrong, I totally lived for Janthony, but I didn't know they were 'a thing' yet. I cleared my throat and two faces, now bright red, stared back at me. "We were jus-" Anthony started, "Lin please don't tell anyone yet, we are telling them a little later today."
