Set up: Regina and Robin are in the cast of finding neverland. Regina is Silvia or the leading lady and Robin is James Barry. The normal lead is out sick so Robin has to fill in. It was very sudden literally 30 minutes before the start of the play when the lead got sick and Robin got called. They did not have time to rehearse that night however they have in the past as Broadway is always prepared but something is different. We open on their beautiful duet of "what you mean to me".
"I won't lie I'm a little bit frightened of my imagination" they both sing in unison as she stares into his eyes.
I never realized how well that beard fit his defined jaw until now
Regina thinks already singing the next line
"Swear I'll try" they sing
" we can fly if you want to I promise you faith will give you wings" as Regina crosses down stage left spinning in circles. He takes her hand stoping her as her heart stops in her chest
"Just take the second star to the right straight a head till the morning light." He sings moving his hands across her body. Her face depicts the exact facial expression the character is suppose to have as she feels it in her gut. Surprise mixed with want and desire. Why has she never felt this with Matt? This is some how so different.
"Just take the second star to the right straight a head till the morning light." They sing again doing the choreographed dance moves then he moves his hand to her face and she leans into his touch.

"Every shape and all the colors all the love from all the lovers never could express just what you mean to me." She says lost in his eyes holding his body.
The next line goes by as they drop to their knees, again as planned, and sing passionate words. Hands wondering on each others back and torso everything keeping very G. They stand to do choreographed dancing once more. Till the end move of his head in her neck as he breaths heavy has her gut slapped with desire. He kisses slightly as she removes his head romantically for the next step but is unaware of the open mouth she has and she sharp inhale she does before they sing
"Turning in circles and blurring the lines" they sing arms raised as they are feet apart till they plug toward one another singing
" I won't lie I'm a little bit frightened of my imagination. Swear I'll try......" They sing gasping on each other clothes as he takes his hands feeling her spine. The tension almost unbearable for that moment passes far too short for either of their likings of no choreography just pulling and feeling each other with want in their hearts.
" I promise you faith will give you wings" they say splitting again to only come back singing.
" just take the second star on the right straight ahead to the morning light." As his hands find her lower stomach and arm. They repeat doing the assigned dance move till he moves his hand to her neck cause her to spin. They get lost in each others eyes while they sing
" every star that's ever fallen" Robin moves closer pulling her toward him ever so lightly. This however was not planned
he has another line till he pulls me close
She thinks singing
" knows the way to where we're going now I really know just what you mean to me." They sing. They have a moment of silence filled with such weight that the entire audience feels before Robin leans down kissing her passionately. His hands cupping her face hers finding his waist. They explore each other mouths for a moment till the audience erupts in applause however it is muted by the moment. The stage blacks out as the set crew comes in preparing quickly for the next scene. Regina and Robin are lost in the moment filled with only each other when another actor pushes them off stage breaking their precious moment.

" I don't think you have ever acted so good" Eliot tells Regina once the play is done and they are safe in her dressing room
"Thanks" she says with a smile removing her piles of stage make up
"You now what the most believe able scene was?..... What you mean to me." He states with a smirk winking at her
" oh shut up we just got caught in the moment that's what actors do I was Silvia and he was James that's all" she says suppressing a smile
" mmhm" he says still smirking
" shut up" she says rolling her eyes ignoring the feeling telling her that it was much more than a heated moment.
Authors note: so if you haven't noticed I went to go see finding neverland on Broadway and it was AMAZING!!!! LITTERALLY THE BEST THING EVER!! Ahh I loved it so much so I got this idea and I was like HELL YESSS!! So here we are all right reserved to the finding neverland people.
