broadway kid || an original hamilton cast fan fiction

Chapter 17

Gracie's POV

I spent an afternoon at a coffee shop with Nick. I was cutting jokes about his cast and crutches.

"Why are you making fun of me, Grace"

Grace.

I liked it when he called me, Grace. Nobody else called me that. It made me feel special.

"Because your so gullible" I laughed, he was so cute when he whined.

He flipped his hair and shined those beautiful bright teeth.

"Let's get out of here, Gracie."

I grabbed his crutches and handed them to him. We walked and talked on the way to the Richard Rodgers Theatre.

"I asked Lin and he said you can stay during the show. "

"Are you going on, tonight?"

"I mean I am, but we can hang out during intermission"

"Sounds fun-"

A big group of reporters ran up to Nick and I. 

"Gracie, how is Anthony and Jazzy as parents? "

"Don't you think you aren't being raised in a healthy environment, because you are constantly in shows?"

"Nick, Why aren't you allowed to go to-"

Nick and I looked at each other in disgust.  Is this literally what they do with their life. Stalking Broadway Teens about their life. These people are literally disgusting.

I leaned to Nick and mouthed "Get out us out of here"

"Hey-uh Reporters, I have a question, What's our name? "

"Nick Barasch and Gracie Daniels-Ramos" One reporter said.

Ramos, Is that what they are calling me now. I mean I liked it, I just forget I guess.

Anyways, I wonder what Nick is trying to accomplish with the whole name thing.

"Do you know how old we are? "

I see, guilt tripping them with the age.

"I'm 15 and he's 17. We're kids. " I say

"I mean you are teens. You are dating"
He smiled

"Actually, we are both under the age of 18. Legally, we aren't allowed to answer question to the public. "

"Minors. Nick, I think they can get in trouble with the law for-"

The camera's kept clicking, it was honestly annoying and Nick and I were tired of it. We tried to get of there, But with Nick on Crutches, we couldn't. 

"Hey, leave them alone!" Who was that? Oh, it was Lin.

Lin got behind Nick and I, forcing us to walk forward. It was honestly weird, He didn't stop until we were in the Richard Rodgers Theatre.

"What were they asking you?"

"Just about me on Broadway and If Jasmine and Anthony were good parents"

He sighed back in a chair

"What? What's wrong with that?"

"It's just still weird to think about it. Jazzy and Anthony as parents, You know?"

"Oh, I don't think it's weird"

"I just want you all to myself, I wish I had adopted you" He hugged me.

He said he wished he had adopted me. I love Lin, but he was really famous and people would be out to get me. Literally.

"You could not of done that" I said, as I hugged him.

"Why not? I would do it, If Jazzy and Anthony hadn't"

I mean I would think Lin would if nobody else wouldn't. I just don't think of him as a dad, well to a teenager.

"I don't know."

"How about when Jazzy and Anthony go on vacation next week, I'll be your dad, okay?"

I nodded

I looked over to Nick who was just standing there. He looked confused.

"Wait, you're adopted? "

How did he not know. Oh, dear Nicholas Barasch. I think he's  is stupid, like actually dumb.

"Oh my gosh, Nick"

"Kid, are you kidding me?" Lin looked at Nick like a joke.

"I'm going to get ready. " I said, starting my way up the stairs

"Wait for me" Nick struggled with his Crutches up the stairs.

Dear Nicholas, How are you so oblivious to everything in your life
