I make hot cocoa and sit in the living room, watching tv, snuggled in a blanket.

I fall asleep on the couch, and wake up in the morning, thankful I charged my phone. I play on it for a few minutes, answering comments, snapchats and texts, before getting ready for school. I throw on some clothes and grab a small apple for breakfast. I run out to Anthony's car, him trailing behind. I turn the heat up all the way, basking in the warming air and waiting for him to catch up. Once he hops in, we drive off to the school. I get out of the car and say goodbye to him, then quickly run to meet up with Cara, Sara, Julia and riley.

"Ok, Christmas is coming like, in 3 days." I say and everyone nods, then Julia jumps up. "Secret Santa time!" She shouts, and grabs Rileys hat off of his head. She scribbles down all of our names, then we each pull one. I smile giddily as I got Cara, and I already know what I want to get her. We all head to home room and get through our days. We finally meet up at rehearsal, where we go through the entire musical since we may forget it over the break. We all go our separate ways and I hop into the car.

"Can I go to the theatre with you guys tonight?" I ask and they both nod. I start my homework in the car and finish it not long after getting home. I grab a blanket and a jacket, then we head to the theatre. As soon as we arrive and get through the barrier, I head to Lins dressing room. "Hey, uncle Lin? Do you think you may have an extra hamiltome, and a sharpie?" I ask and he smiles. "AN extra? Singular, one, extra, how about 30?" He says, and shows me a stack of books. "Well, ones enough. Do you think you could sign it out to Cara, she's still freaking out that you guys are my family." I say and he nods. "Yea, front pocket of my bag, and give it back when you're done if you get everyone else to sign it." He says as I grab it out of his bag.

He signs the book and I take it around to the entire cast. Some of them write little notes, some sign it to her. I smile, then take it up to my room where I left my purse and backpack. I grab my blanket and jacket, then walk up to the roof. I sit down, and just stay there. I pull out my phone after what feels like 5 minutes, and realize it's been an hour. I smile, then take a picture of the nearly set sun. It's stunning, part of the reason that I love it up here so much. I talk to people and hang out until I hear something behind me. "Hey." I hear Anthony say. "Oh, hey, are you ready to ho. Sorry I wasn't downstairs, time got away from me. I'm so-" I say, as Anthony walks towards me. "Don't be sorry, it's peaceful up here, it's nice. Javi made cafecito, so everyone's bouncing off of the walls, including your mother." He says, offering me a hand. I stand up, laughing.

I walk over to the door and walk downstairs with him, as many a hyper cast member passes us. It takes a few minutes to find jazz, and once we do, we have to basically drag her out of the theatre. This is going to be a long night.
