My Dearest | JANTHONY

Chapter 42

I need to tell him soon. I don't want it to be this nig thing I kept from him. Would it be really stupid if I told him? Maybe I could just, never tell him? Would that work? Ugh. I'm gonna have to tell him.

I sit at home, because it's my day off. Anthony didn't take the day off, for some reason. I'm assuming he's gonna go drinking with Daveed and Oak after. But instead, he comes home at 9:00 pm. "Anthony?" I ask, as he walks in the door.

"Why are you here so early? I thought you would go to the bar or something with Daveed and Oak?" I say, getting up to hug him. "I..I just don't think I'm being a good boyfriend to you. Hoing out drinking every night. You're such an amazing girlfriend, and I want to return the favor." He explains.

I smile and hug him. "I love you, Ramos." "I love you too, Cephas Jones." He replies, kissing my cheek.

"You going to the show tomorrow?" He asks, still embracing me. "Yeah,I'm pretty sure." I say, pulling away, confused by why he asks what seems an obvious question. He smiles and says, "Perfect." I just smile back and enjoy the moment.

Maybe I won't tell him about Oak for a while.

The next day, I wear high waisted black jeans, with an oversized white sweater. I put my hair up in a ponytail, and grab a banana. Anthony and I walk to the theatre.

It's a sunny day, and I'm happy as heck. I don't know, considering Anthony is such a good boyfriend, I have my dream job, and a second family to go to everyday. It's pretty nice.

I can't help but be happy.

We walk hand and hand to the Richard Rogers, and when get in vision of people stagedooring, we hear them screaming, "Janthony!" "Ship!" "My parents!!" We both laugh. I love our fans.

As we walk inside, everyone else seams happy. Everything between Oak and I is normal, we both know that it meant nothing. I don't know if Anthony would know that if I told him, though.

As we get ready for the show, Renee asks, "Soo..how are you and Anthony?" I smile and say, "Better without a physcopath ex-boyfriend." I laugh. Pippa and Renee do as well. "But, good, really. We're great." I smile.

"Good for you two," Pippa says, applying her makeup. I smile as I slip on my creame dress, for 'Alexander Hamilton'.

As we go on, my heart just overwhelms with joy. I love life.

At curtain call, we take our bows, and there's a standing ovation. But, somethings different, because Anthony steps up and takes the microphone.

"Um, hi guys, my names Anthony and I played Laurens and Philip. And I just wanted to say something to my girlfriend, Jasmine." He says, and everyone looks at me.

My stomach turns. Me? Why? I step up in front of the stage beside him. "Anthony?" I whisper. "Jasmine and I have been daying for a while now, and I'm positive she really is, the love of my life." He says.

Gasps fall across the audiene and cast. As Anthony Ramos gets down on one knee, pulls out a box, and says "Jasmine Cephas Jones, make me the happiest man on earth, be the Eliza to my Alexander, and spend the rest of my life with me..will you marry me?"

I gasp, so does everyone in the audience and the cast. I start crying as I nod violently nod my head, "Yes, yes of course!" I shout, as he slides the ring on my finger. He stands on both feet, hugs me, and picks me up off the ground. Everyone applauds. I can't believe it.

I'm engaged.

I turn to see Pippa and Renee, holding hands and crying, and Lin, Leslie, and Chris, hollering. I laugh as I give Anthony a kiss, and the music cues for us to go offstage. "I love you, Anthony." I say. "I love you too, Jasmine."
