Your POV

Daveed Diggs. The beyond talented man who played both Marquis de Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson, and the rapper in his own group. Not only did he have the talent, he had the looks too. So how exactly did he wind up with me, (Y/N) (L/N), an ensemble dancer who just luckily was a understudy for any one of the three Schuyler sisters (of course that meant Maria too)? I was absolutely clueless. Sure, we loved each other... but recently things seemed...

...different.

Believe me, I didn't know why to that either. But whenever none other than his childhood best friend, Rafael Casal, was in the room with us, things seemed a little too tense. The weirdest part? Rafa didn't know why as well.

Today wasn't much different than the previous two-show days. It was now intermission, so we had about a half-hour to kill. Daveed had vanished somewhere, seeing as after Yorktown, he isn't seen again (is that accurate? I don't think you see him again after that... but Lafayette is mentioned as a singer in Non-Stop... so idk. but for this purpose... he ain't on). From what I heard though, he had gone off to find Rafa for God knows what reason.

I slipped off the stage, immediately getting into conversation with Sydney. After the times I played Maria and was just an ensemble dancer, we were pretty close friends. When we got backstage, Daveed was nowhere. Usually he was there to say something to me, but not today, which confused me.

I did find Oak though, who also wasn't on. I excused myself from Sydney and I's conversation. "Oak!"

He looked at me as I approached him. "Yeah (Y/N)?"

"Have you seen Daveed anywhere?"

Oak shook his head. "No. He looked really ticked off earlier though, so I went to ask him what was up. He only shook me off and was mumbling something about finding Rafa."

"That's exactly what he was going on about earlier. Geez, did something happen between them?"

Oak shrugged. "No idea. He might be in our dressing room with Rafa though. Rafa was waiting there last time I checked."

"Good idea. Thanks Oak!" I responded, starting to take off to the dressing rooms.

"Anytime!" his voice called back (Oak is such a sweetheart god I love him).
