•••••
I walk into the theatre to see my girlfriend, Betsy.

"Eleonor!"

It's Pippa.

"Hi Pippa! Have you seen Betsy?"

"Yeah, she's in the dressing room."

"Great! Thanks."

I go up the stairs and to the right, and into the dressing room.

"Bets?" I call, hoping to get an answer.

"Over here!"

I walk over makeup, hair products, clothes, and shoes over to where Betsy is standing, still in costume, digging through a pile of tights.

"Sorry, I'm trying to find a pair of tights that'll fit Ariana, she ripped hers." She says, justifying the mess.

"That's alright," I say, laughing at her apology.

I make my way over to her and peck her on the lips, then start picking up assorted objects off the floor, trying to clean things up a bit.

"Don't bother, the mess regenerates after a day," She says, laughing. "It's like a hurricane in here everyday!"

Since it's a matinee, we have just enough time to go to lunch at Angelo's Pizza. This is our matinee routine by now.

"You ready?" I ask.

"Yep! Let's go, I'm starving!"

We get on the subway, and walk a few blocks, and finally we get there. The sweet smell of fresh dough and sauce comes out of the door as we enter, and we sigh simultaneously. We both look at each other and laugh, then sit at our favorite booth in the corner. By now, the waiters know our names, the host knows our seats, and we know the menu by heart.

"Hi Betsy! Hi Eleanor, what can I get you guys today? The usual?" Franny, the waitress asks.

"You know it!" We say in unison, giggling.

Franny is a friend of ours, and this is a little inside joke. We eat, stopping only to take sips of water.

"Wow, you really were hungry!" I say, looking at Betsy's empty plate.

"Yeah, I guess," she says, laughing.

After lunch, we get back to the theater, and Betsy starts getting ready for the next show. This one is special, because her whole family is coming to see it and they'll be meeting me for then first time.

I'm nervous, but if they are anything like Betsy, they'll be laid back and friendly. Time goes by quickly, and soon the show is over. Betsy's family comes in, and I fiddle with my shirt.

"Guys, this is Eleanor, my girlfriend." She says, smiling at me.

"Hi, nice to meet you all." I reply, hoping they don't think I'm an awful human being.

"Nice to meet you hun! It's so great that Betsy has such a great girl like you!" says her mom, and my heart swells.

I blush profusely, and do a little happy dance on the inside. I can't believe they are so supportive!

We end up going out to dinner, and they even invite me over to play board games at her parents' house. I accept, and we have a blast. In the end, Betsy's dad declares that it's too late for me to go home, so I sleep in the guest room for the night. The next morning, I sneak into Betsy's room and she jumps up and hugs me.

"I can't believe it all worked out!" She whisper-screams.

"I know!" I reply.

She kisses me, and a chill runs down my spine. I am so happy.
