Friendship (A Borle/Jonas FanFiction)

Chapter 9

Chapter 9

(Leslie’s POV)

            I turned my phone off and headed toward my car. I needed to think.

            Right now, I think that giving up the show would be the best thing for me. It was crazy for me to think that I even could do it anyway. I have not acted in a long time anyway. And of course, being hit on by Nick all the time was not good for me either. That guy is so cute. If he would straighten himself up… I might have given him a chance.

            But right now, there is something else bothering me. Today is the anniversary of my husband's passing. He was killed by a drunk driver on his way home from work on this day three years ago. I have never gotten over it and I guess I never will. Mason and I were his world. I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes as I got in my car.

            Since his passing, all I have done is bury myself in my work and my son. I thought doing this show would finally help me move on but I just can't do it. I started to drive home. I felt a strong urge to spend time with Mason.

            I hope that Amber, Chris, Deb, and the others understand.

(Nick’s POV)

            I was going to kill Amber… make her pay for what she did to me. Nobody hurts me and gets away with it. Even getting me fired just because of smacking her ass and bruised her arm.

            I was in my car after I grabbed my things, grabbed my phone, and called a paper…

            “Yes… This is Nick Jonas… I have a juicy story for you… where can I come meet and give it to someone there?”

            You mess with Nick Jonas, your career is done and over with… for good. She’ll never work on Broadway every again.

(Debra’s POV)

            I walked over to Christian and Amber as we just had some time for the producer and director think and try to find Nick and Leslie.

            "We'll I have three pieces of bad news. One, Nick left and he is beyond pissed” I said making an arm jester out toward the doors, “two, I can't get a hold of Leslie it goes straight to voicemail, and three…” I frowned at Amber, “I’m sorry Amber, but they don't want to use Chris as the lead."

            "Okay," Chris said. "Don't worry. They said that they have a list, Amber can look over it and choose who she wants to work with. I'm sure she'll be fine with it," he smiled as her.

            Amber nods knowing she was hurt that Chris wasn't going to be the lead. "Okay. Well, I'm sure we'll get a hold of Leslie later... but watch everything around us, knowing Nick he's going to really do something bad."

            I nod, "We're all on it. So, we need to go announce to the other cast members and get you looking at the list of leading men," I told her with a smile.

            Amber nods and walks off toward the stage where the Director and Producer were as I looked at Chris.

            "Are you okay? I know how hopeful it sounded for you and Amber to act again?"

            "Yes but I guess it is not meant to happen right now," he said sadly with a sigh.

            "Sure it will. Maybe for something else," I smiled at him. "It's not like it's going to be the final one for you both to do. There will always be other musicals/shows for you to do."
