Daveed

I woke up with a throbbing headache, and looked around, and noticed I was on.....my bed? Who did this? (alexander dID YOU KNOW?!, sorry) I looked at my clock, 6:37. The show started at 11:00, and we always do some quick practice, so I'd better get going. I took a shower, put on some comfortable clothes, ate breakfast, and headed out.

- 10 minutes later -

I arrived at the Theater and saw Ember.

"Hey, Ember! Last night was fun, wasn't it?"

"Hi, Daveed. Yeah, I guess it was." She said, emotion absent in her voice.

"What do you mean, you guess?"

"Well, you did get pretty drunk, and I did have to carry you home, and you're not exactly the lightest thing in the world."

"Are you calling me fat?" I said playfully.

"No! I'm just saying that you are a very muscle-y man."

"Okay then."

-After The Show-

Ember

It was the end of the show, and as always, tears were streaming down my face. It was about 3:00 o'clock, and I headed towards to my dressing room to get this dress off.

- 5 minutes later -

I was walking towards the exit, when Anthony interrupted me.

"Hey Ember! I just wanted to tell you that I am really blown away by you. You're doing such a great job."

"Well, thank you very much, Anthony. I could the same about you." I smiled.

I resumed my walk, when I heard footsteps behind me, Daveed.

"Hey darlin'! I was wondering if you wanted to come over and watch something?"

"Yeah, sure." I smiled.

It was a pretty quiet walk, which I didn't mind.

"So, Ember, how do you think you're doing in Hamilton?

"I think I'm getting the job done, yeah, I think I'm okay." I nervously chuckled.

"Princess, you are doing a such a great job."

"Thanks!" I smiled

Ember

Daveed had decided to make pigs in a blanket because, why not?

As I was wrapping the meat in the dough, Daveed wrapped his arms around my waist and bent down towards my head.

"You're very adorable, you know that?" He smiled, then kissed my cheek.

"You're very charming, you know that?" I blushed.

We started to hear the door open, fuck.

"Princess, under the table!" He whisper-yelled.

I ran under the table, with Daveed behind me.

"Daveed! Where are you?!" A familiar voice said, it was Lin.

I heard his footsteps going to the other rooms, and I started to freak out, and almost crying.

"Daveed! What if he finds us?! He could send you to jail, and we wont see each other again!!" I whisper-yelled, starting to cry.

"Princess, this table has a tablecloth, he won't find us! Don't worry." He said, wiping my tears.

"But Daveed-"

"Princess, shut that pretty little mouth of yours. Don't worry." He said caressing my cheek.

I nodded.

"I guess he's not here." Lin had said.

I heard the door open, then close.

I took a deep breath.

"Daveed, I want to leave, please."

"Princess.."

"Please."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I'm here if you want to talk, darlin'." He said rubbing my arm.

"Thank you. Bye, Daveed."

"Goodbye, Princess."

I headed out of the door, tears wanting to escape my eyes.

I finally got home, and got a text, Unknown.

Unknown

I noticed that you are in a musical. Hamilton, wasn't it? It seems like a very good one, maybe I'll see it someday.

Ember

Leave me alone, Mike.

Unknown

I'm afraid I can't do that, Princess.

Ember

Don't call me that.

He didn't reply after that.

For the rest of the day, I just watched TV, and finally went to sleep. I'll tell Daveed about it tomorrow.
