Anthony's POV:

            I looked down at Jazzy. She was so gorgeous when she was sleeping. Her eyes fluttered open. I began to think about what happened earlier and I wasn't lying, she was perfect. Everything about her. She gazed up at me, "Hey babe," she whispered before pecking me with her soft, luscious lips. 

            "Hey Jaz," I replied lovingly before looking up at the clock, "We've gotta get going, it's 12:20," I exclaimed. She groaned. I picked her up bridal style and led her to our room where she fixed herself up a bit before walking out the door to our apartment. 

            "Ant, I wanna talk to you," she began, tensing up.

            "What is it Jazzy? You can tell me anything," I responded, grabbing her hand and lightly squeezing it.

            "I just wanted to really thank you for earlier," she replied, exhaling, "you really made me feel safer than ever. I've never had someone like you. Thanks for always taking care of me, even when I show you my bad side, one that Nathan never really approved of," she finished. I kissed her temple,

             "Of course! Just like I told you before, I love you no matter what," I assured her, "you're the best thing that has ever happened to me," I exclaimed as a slight blush formed on her cheeks.

            "Ant, you're the best thing that's ever happened to me," she responded, now making me blush.

            "Hey lovebirds," we heard someone chirp from behind us. It was Daveed. I looked around and noticed that we had reached the theater. I chuckled and then held the door open for both Jazzy and Daveed. He batted me on the chest,

            "How are things going between you two?"

             "Great," I whispered, "I love her more than ever."

             "Good. But because she doesn't have any siblings I'm going to give you this speech myself. If you ever do ANYTHING to hurt Jasmine or betray her, I will hunt you down and kick your ass." Daveed firmly stated. I shook his hand,

             "I won't. I love her to pieces," I swore before walking into the theater. Jasmine had already run off with her sisters so I just went to my dressing room. I was greeted by Oak and Leslie chatting away. 

            "Hey guys, meet in the green room at 1:03 please!" I heard Lin say over the intercom. I peered at the nearest clock, 12:56. I wanted to catch up with Jazzy for a second before going to the green room so I raced off to Dressing Room 3. I knocked a few times and waited until I heard a voice call out, 

            "Come in!" I recognized it as Renée's. I twisted the doorknob and peered at the girls,

            "Jazzy, can I talk to you for a moment?" I asked, smiling at her.

            "Sure babe," Jaz replied, walking towards me. Pippa and Renée made mushy faces jokingly behind her. I rolled my eyes and then followed Jazzy out of the room. "What's up Ant?" She asked. 

            "I just wanted to say I love you, and I missed you." I pleaded.

            "Ant it's been five minutes," Jazzy bubbled. 

           "I know, but I still missed you," I grinned, pulling her by the waist and kissing her, but she pulled away after a millisecond. 

            "Hey, save some for later!" She smirked before turning around and grabbing her sisters out of the room so we could all walk to the green room together. 

            "Ugh, you two are so cute!" Pippa exclaimed joyfully while me and Jasmine's hands were swinging, our fingers interlocked.

            "Mhmm...what about you and Steven?!" Jasmine joked, making Pippa blush heavily. Just then, we reached the green room. Lin was practically bouncing off the walls in excitement. He was smiling as big as the Cheshire Cat. 

            "Hey guys!!" Lin fizzed.

            "Hey Lin, you good?" I asked.

            "Oh I'm fantastic!" He replied, sounding like Olaf from Frozen. Soon enough, the rest of the cast arrived and we all circled up, just like we did for our first show. "So, as you guys know, I called you here for something very important!" Lin exclaimed, "So um, no big deal or anything but...WE'RE GOING TO BROADWAY!!" He shouted. The entire room erupted with loud cheers and rivers of tears. Jaz leapt into my arms, tears streaming down her cheeks and a bright smile glowing across her face. I lifted her higher into the air so her face met with mine in a comfortable embrace, kissing her as I did so. Then I set her down to celebrate with the guys. High fives went around the room and the attention turned back to Lin. "Our first Broadway show will commence at the Richard Rodgers on July 13th. Rehearsals start next week, making Friday our last off-Broadway show," he stated. Everyone was paying attention, but still jumping out of their pants with excitement.

Jasmine's POV:

            "Drinks on me after rehearsal!" Leslie shouted before regular rehearsal began. The energy put into all of our numbers was miraculous. We were a well oiled machine fueled by the success of making it to Broadway. It was nerve wracking, but extremely exciting. All of a sudden, Anthony's phone rang. I knew he always had it on silent unless it was me or his mom and obviously it wasn't me, so I got nervous. I also thought about the fact that we still hadn't told our parents about the two of us yet. To our luck, there hadn't been any fan shipping or posts about us on the market yet since we weren't a public couple. Anthony picked up the call, all eyes on him. 

            "Hey ma, I'm at rehearsal, is everything alright?" He asked, visibly worried. His eyes went dark, "Okay, I'll be right there," Anthony replied. And without even thinking, left. I began to chase after him.

            "Ant! Ant! Anthony!" I called out. He turned.

            "Stephanie is in the hospital," Anthony explained, tears flooding his eyes, "I'm gonna try to make it there in an hour, stay strong for me," he whimpered, giving me a quick kiss goodbye. 

            "I will, I love you!" I yelled at him as he rushed out the door. Usually, I would've asked to go with him, but I knew he would want me to stay here. I walked back into rehearsal and explained the situation to everyone. Obviously, they understood, so we continued on with rehearsal.

Hey guys! This chapter was indeed my realization that they hadn't told Stephanie, Mario, Kim, Ron (rip), Mildred, or the fans yet. Oops! That should be either the next chapter, or the one that follows. Thanks for reading!!
