Taking My Shot- Adopted by Hamilton

29-Good Luck Charm

"Mija will you get that?" Lin yelled from the other room, I was setting up my new phone while Lin and Vanessa were making breakfast.

"Sure," I said getting up to answer the door, I opened it finding Lin's parents, my now grandparents, at the door. "Abuelo!" I said hugging Luis who had asked me to call him abuelo the first time we met.

"Merry Christmas nieta!" he said pulling me into a hug.

"Merry Christmas," I said pulling out of the hug to greet Luz, Lin's mom, my now grandma, "Abuela." I said hugging her.

"Merry Christmas neita," she said as I motioned them inside.

"Mama, Papa!" Lin said coming into the living room and hugging his parents. Vanessa came in and greeted them as well.

"And here's our little nieto," Luis said picking up Sebastian who hugged him.

"He's gotten so big," Luz said ruffling his hair.

"I know he just keeps growing," Lin laughs, "Unlike this one." Lin came and placed his hands on my shoulders and kissed the top of my head.

"Hey I'm not that short," I laughed looking up at Lin.

"Whatever floats your boat mija," Lin said ruffling my hair, "Now let's eat I'm starving." Lin ran into the kitchen and I followed after him being met by delicious smells of bacon, pancakes and eggs. We all sat down and started eating, it was quite nice having a meal with my family. It felt weird to call them my family but they were and I wasn't objecting to the fact they were. I smiled as Lin was making funny faces at Sebastian to make him laugh while Luis was recording him and while Vanessa and Luz were in a conversation about something while Toby sat on the floor waiting for Lin to carelessly drop food, as he usually did. I looked at them and thought, this is my family and god that felt so good.

"You ready mija?" Lin asked.

"Yep," I said grabbing my bag and following him out the door. It was the first day back at Hamilton from Christmas and I wanted to go with Lin because I had gifts for the cast and I missed the Richard Rogers; even though it had only been two days. We made our way through the snow out to Lin's car and headed to the theater, once we were there we made our way to the stage door and waved at the fans who were waiting there. Lin stopped to take pictures since they were waiting in the freezing cold but he told me to go inside so I did. Once inside I headed to Lin's dressing room, we were here early so that I could go place everyone's presents in their dressing rooms. I grabbed my bag and first dropped off Jonathan's since he shared a dressing room with Lin, I took out the T-shirt that was rolled up and was being held together by a bracelet. I set it down on the table and then headed off to Leslie's dressing room. Basically each gift was a special T-shirt I had made that had something to do with their character and a bracelet that said 'Hamilfamila para siempre'. Jonathan's T-shirt said 'I don't know you. I know him.' And had a crown on it with King George's actual signature that I found online. I got to Leslie's dressing room and set down his shirt that said 'Talk Less. Get Ready 5 Minutes Before The Show More.' Yeah Lin was really gonna like that one.  Next was Pippa, Jazzy and Renee, Pippa's said 'If You Could Just Bring Me Food, That Would Be Enough' which was inspired by the fact that Pippa was always talking about food or saying she was hungry. I set her's down and then grabbed Renee's which said 'Angelica 2020: She will keep your country satisfied' which was inspired by that fact that if it was possible Angelica would've been the first female president of the United States. Next I grabbed Jazzy's which said 'And Peggy Will Probably Say No To This As Well' because I love making puns out of characters and songs. I left the girls dressing room and headed to Daveed's dressing room, I grabbed his shirt that said 'Tell Hamilton Cest toi who's the best? Moi Jefferson' because I just have to have Jefferson telling Hamilton fuck you. I then headed to Oak and Anthony's dressing rooms, I took out Oak's shirt first which had a giant 'M' on it that looked like a superhero logo and under it, it had a tag line 'Mulligan by day, Madison by night.' I set it down on his table and then grabbed Anthony's which said 'And when our children tell our story, they'll the story of when we all stripped down to our socks' yep Anthony will like this one. I headed out of their dressing room and to Chris', I pulled out his shirt which said 'HERE COMES THE GENERAL! To sit under his own vine and fig tree.' I laughed as I set it down remembering how long it took me to come up with that. I then went into the ensemble dressing rooms and set down their shirts which all said 'Revolutionaries of Musicals' since they have to dance and do some much constantly during the show, they are the real revolutionaries. After I was done I headed back into Lin's dressing room and luckily he wasn't there so I set down his shirt which said 'I'm Hamildone with you ~A.Ham' since Hamilton gets in fights with literally everyone. I laughed as I set it down hoping Lin would like it, I then sat down on the couch and started scrolling through Twitter to fill time until people arrived. I was watching an intense Twitter battle between Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth when Lin's door opened revealing Lin with his hair in two ponytails.
