Thanks for 100 reads! Sorry for not updating in a few days, I've been busy.

"What are you doing out his late?" Jake asks. I try to run past him, but he stops me. "I'm going  to see a midnight movie with my friends and I'm late." I lie.

"Fat chance, you don't have any friends." He says, immediately regretting it. I really want to get past him, so I pretend to cry.

"Oh-I-uhh...."he stutters, clearly uncomfortable."I'm sorry. Go to your movie." I walk away and fall asleep on a bench.

Logan POV

I wake up to my phone ringing. Who on earth is calling me this late at night? It's Jake. He hardly ever calls me, so this must be important. "Hello?"

"Is Trinity going to a movie?" Jake asks.

"No, why? She's in her room sleeping." I reply, utterly confused.

"No, she's not. She's running away." I just bumped into her on the street outside of your apartment. She's sleeping on a bench right now and I'm hiding behind some trees."

"Where are you?" I ask.

"The park down the street. You'll see me."

"Ok" I hang up. The park isn't very far, so I just walk down the street. Why would she run away again? Maybe she was humiliated by the situation with Alissa. Maybe she's not telling me something. I arrive at the park and see Jake behind some trees. "She's over there" he points to a bench. I go over to the bench and pick her up. She doesn't wake up, so I walk back down the street and up to the apartment. I set her down on her bed and she rolls over and settles in.

Trinity POV

I wake up back in my room. Why am I back here? I open the bedroom door and see Logan standing there. "Why did you run away again?" I pause for a moment before answering.

"I-I... I was embarrassed about what happened with Alissa. I overreacted for no reason and I felt stupid."

"You're not stupid. You're smart and beautiful and talented." He says.

I blush at this. I had never been called smart or beautiful or talented before. Logan's the first person who's ever really cares about me.

"You should get some breakfast, because we're going to George's apartment."

I make a waffle. As I'm eating it I scroll through twitter. Nothing exciting on there, just some adds and tweets from friends. I finish my breakfast and put on my glasses and a hat. We go to George's and he and Logan talk about vlogging and stuff. "George and I need to talk in the hall for a minute." Logan says. I look around at George's apartment. It's very nice and clean. I see a piano in the corner. I've known how to play the piano for a long time. It was an escape from the hell that was the orphanage. I don't think George will mind if I play it, he's cool. I sit down and start to play Dear Theodosia from Hamilton. I've always liked Hamilton. I love history and music, so it's pretty much perfect. I haven't played in a while. I play for a while, and it feels natural again. "You're really good." Logan says. I jump back.

"I didn't even hear you come in!" I say. "Thanks, also."

"I didn't know you could play. Or sing."

"I can't sing, at least not well. I'm decent at piano, but that was a simple song." I say.

"What are you talking about, you're a fantastic singer. Even George agrees that you're a really good pianist."

"It's true." George says. "I didn't know you liked Hamilton."

"It's my favorite. I really like history, so I listen to it a lot."

"That's cool. I saw it on Broadway when it first came out. It's a really cool topic. It really encourages kids to learn more about  revolutionary America." He says.

"I have no clue what either of you are talking about." Logan says. He seems very confused.

"Hamilton is a musical about Alexander hamiltons life. He was one of the founding fathers of America." I say.

"That's seems cool. I'll listen to it. You should play some more songs so I can hear them."

"Yeah, Logan will like that." George says.

"Alright, what should I play?" I ask.

"Play it from the beginning." Logan says.

"Ok then"

I play Alexander Hamilton, Aaron Burr sir, the story of tonight, and Schuyler sisters when my phone rang. It was Zach. I was just about to play helpless, so it was an appropriate time for him to call. "Sorry, I need to answer this." I say.

"Hey, what's up?" I ask.

"There's someone at our house that you might want to meet. You can come over if you want to see him." Zach says.

"Ok, I'll be over soon." I hang up. "Can we go to the why don't we house? Zach said I should come.

"Sure, why not." Logan says. We drive over and go inside. Standing in the living room was Lin-Manuel Miranda.
