Chapter 12

Evalina's P.O.V.

I woke up early. I sighed I didn't get as much sleep as I wanted but I did get a sufficient amount.

I checked my phone and it was about 7 A.M. I suppose we have an early rehearsal today. I checked my calender. Nope. Rehearsal starts at 12 then I get to leave early to edit the photos I have. By early they mean like one hour earlier.

Early is early either way. I changed into a t-shirt some jeans and pulled on a hoodie and my hat. I brushed my teeth grabbed my camera, phone, and wallet, the usual. I made sure to grab my laptop this time too. I also made sure to put in my contacts and put on my glasses.

I suppose I'll take pictures. I walked out onto the busy streets of New york. I walked towards the unexplored areas that were covered in art. Just snapped the occasional picture.

I got one of a dog next to a puddle by a painting of a cat, more specifically Cheshire cat. I thought it was funny. I took a few more pictures when I received a text.

It was from Ben.

Ben: Hey, E. I was
wondering if you
wanted to come to
the Nederlander again
everyone who didn't
meet you is upset and
they think it's unfair

I laughed while reading that. Some adults are such children, I mean I act like a child myself but I'm only 15.

Me: Sure I'd love too
what time should I be
there and his long
am I staying

Ben: be here around
7ish, and you can
hang out in the
dressing rooms or
watch the show from
the wings

Me: cool, I'll see you
then ^-^

Ben: See you then too

At least I have an excuse to leave early too. I can take shots of the Broadway Newsies rehearsing and upload it to their instagram. I checked the time and saw it was twelve.

Better get going before I'm late. I made my way to rehearsals. I made it in, on time might I add. I took off my hat and set my stuff down. I began walking around making sure to capture shots as I did. I saw Chaz tap dancing and I took a picture. I'll upload it to his instagram.

I got pictures of Ginna-Claire and Stephanie joking around. I got a few of Josh, Ben, Sky, and DeMarius when they weren't looking.

I sat down and began editing occasionally checking the time and seeing when I should walk around to take pictures. At some point the boys were put on break because I noticed some people come up behind me.

I didn't mind them and continued editing and posting. Eventually I finished and came up to the pictures I had taken today. "You're really talented ya know." Josh said.

I slightly smiled. "At least you think so." "What do y-" Josh started. "Nothing, it's nothing." I cut him off. "So you boys ready for tour?" Ben smiled. "Definitely, it's gonna be a lot of fun."

We talked for a little when I checked the time. I had to get going soon if I wanted to be on time to the theater. "So you wanna hang out with Ben and I after rehearsal?" Josh asked.

"Sorry, I can't. I already made plans." Josh gave me his puppy dog eyes. Isn't he 18? I sighed and rubbed my temples. "How about on our day off we go out instead." Josh smiled triumphantly. I knew he had planned something like this. "Great! I'll text you the details."

Josh and his conniving plans. I told Jeff C. that I was going. He said it was fine. I made my way home, changed into a button up and some nicer looking jeans. I grabbed a cardigan and put in my glasses. I grabbed the usual and made my way to the Nederlander. I also threw on a hat I found lying in my suit case.

My guess is Uncle Jeff put it there. It looked like the Newsies' cap. I un-tangled my hair and put it on.

I used my Toursies pass to get in and made my way to Ben and Andrew's  dressing room. Some people waved to me recognizing me from before and others just looked at me confused. The show started at 8 and it was around 7:35.

Just as I was about to make it to my goal I bumped into someone. I have a real talent for bumping into people. I sighed and looked up. I know I'm short don't judge me.

3rd Person P.O.V.

Evalina looked and she bumped into a guy with black hair and brown eyes. She felt like she's seen him before. "I am so so sorry." She said backing away. "Its fine." He said smiling. Truth be told he was confused as to why she was here. He had never seen her in this theater before.

"No offense or anything but why are you here or how did you get in? I've never seen you around here." "Its fine, I came the other day, I'm Ben's friend. I'm the photographer for the Toursies, hence the pass that got me in, and I'm also Jeff Calhoun's niece."

Realization dawned on him. "Oh, you're Evalina. I've heard about you from the cast a d your uncle has mentioned you before. I'm Corey, Corey Cott." Now I remembered who he was.

"Nice to meet you." "Same to you." "Good luck tonight. I'm sure you're gonna do great." Evalina said and made her way to Ben and Andrew's dressing room. I knocked and I felt someone open the door.

"Hey, Eve!" Andrew said. "Hey. How are you?" "Good, Ben told us he was bringing you back because a majority of the cast was upset they didn't get to meet you." Evalina laughed.

"Who knows, during your I might just pop in to take some photos." Evalina said. She'd actually been considering it, not only would she get to visit but she could get work done too.

"Where's Ben?" Evalina asked out of curiosity. "Probably having a riff off with Corey." They both laughed. They talked for a little while and visited dressing rooms. Eventually Andrew and Ben were showing Evalina round the theatre while warming up. So they'd stop to say hi then you'd just see them doing pirouettes

Every thing was going fine. Evalina went and talked with Kara. The ten minute call came on. Suddenly loud footsteps were heard.

Laura's door slammed open. "Alex is sick." Ryan said. "Get a swing, what are you doing here hurry." "That's the thing, all of our swings are either on or sick and we can't do the show without a Sniper. I told the New director, we're gonna have to cancel."

Evalina didn't want to cancel tonight, they were too close to the time, everyone was already in the theater. "This isn't over. You're lucky I like you guys." Evalina said."What?" Ryan and Kara asked.

She threw her phone at them. "Call Jeff, tell him I'm gonna go on as Sniper. There's no time, I'm gonna get the costume. Kara help me pin my hair up when I get back. I know the choreography and songs like the back of my hand. One Last thing don't tell the Toursies."

Evalina ran through the halls speeding to get the costume.

Kara took the phone and unlocked it. She got onto Jeff's contact and called.

"I'm in the middle of rehearsals this better be important E." "This isn't Evalina." "Kara?" "Hey, Jeff." "Why are you calling from my niece's phone?"
