Dreaming of a Redhead

So's the Bronxs

Brooklyn's POV

I paced back and fourth in the girlsies dressing room. It was almost show time and I was a nervous wreck.

"Brooklyn, if you're just as an amazing dancer as Nick says you are than I'm sure you're just as an amazing actor," Melissa said trying to calm me down.

Just then there was a knock on the door. Meredith handed me little Wren (who is the cutest girl I have ever met) before getting up to open the door. Anthony and Vincent (who both play Les) were standing there. I guessed by the way Vincent was dressed he was going on as Les today.

"Hey you two," Meredith said happily.

"Hi Meredith," they both replied at the same time.

"Hi," Wren waved to the two boys.

"Hi Wren," they said while waving back. Seriously why is this so freaking cute right now?

"We just came to give Brooklyn this," Vincent said before he and Anthony ran in and handed me a card.

"Aw, thank you," I said before taking the cards. Right on the front there was a picture they drew of me dressed as Sniper holding the Bronx sign. I then opened it up and saw there were little messages from each of the cast members written in blue or black pen. But it was mostly blue, aka my favorite color.

The first message my eyes landed on was Nick's. I knew it was his since I'd know his hand writing anywhere. Plus the message said "break a leg little sis, I'm so proud at how far you've come"

another one said, "Brooklyn's finally here" which was from Jeff.

Zachary's said, "Break a leg. (But don't actually break your leg)

Ben's message read "Looks like we have a Queen of New York"

Josh's said, "Can't wait to see you on stage"

Chaz's was really sweet, which said, "You'll be amazing out there to night." I read every last message and there was even one from Wren, which was just scribbles, but it counts as one.

When I got to the last one it said "Don't fall into the pit and you'll be just fine" I already knew as soon as I read "pit" that one was from Sky. I smiled and remembered that morning. He was really funny and sweet and it was like my dream came to life.

"Thanks you two," I said before giving Vincent and Anthony a huge while being careful not to drop Wren.

"You're welcome," they replied.

"Now you two better get going, we've got a show to do," I said. They nodded before giving me one more hug then left. I put the card on my station before getting taking a sip of my water and finishing up my warm ups just in time for the show. I headed back stage where I was a nervous wreck. I kept pacing back and fourth.

"Relax Brook, you'll be amazing."

I turned around and saw Nick was standing behind me. "Aren't you-"

"And leave you and your nerves?" he asked cutting me off. I only smiled and then hugged him. Just having my twin there made me feel better. "Break a leg baby sis."

"I'm only younger by a minute and a half, idiot," I replied.

"Which still makes you my baby sister." he smiled before saying, "I better get to my place, I'll see you on stage." Anyways, after that as soon as I stepped out onto the stage time seemed to fly and before I knew it I was making my first bow.

Nick picked me up into a hug and spun around before putting my down. I only smiled more and that's when Ben, and Josh, and Chaz and Sky all went up to hug me at the exact same time and well....what I thought was just a group hug ended up with a dog pile on Brooklyn. Nick just stood there like the idiot he is and laughed.

"Get the frick off me before I kill you," I said. In seconds they scrambled up and ran off stage. I laughed and before Nick and I left we did our hand shake. As we walked off he slung and arm around me. When we got to the wings I was met with more hugs, luckily there wasn't a dog pile.

Anyways after that was over I went back to the girlsies dressing room since this wig is getting on my last nerve. As I was walking I heard a voice say, "Hey Brook, wait up."

I turned around and saw Sky "Hey stranger," I said as he caught up to me.

"Hey, you were amazing out there," he said as I started to walk again.

"Thanks, and you were pretty amazing yourself," I replied.

"So, how did it feel?"

"The same when I'm at a dance competition. At first I'm really nervous, but once I get out there it's the best feeling in the world," I said before taking one step a head of Sky and spun around.

"Well, here's you stop," Sky said as he stopped in front of the girls' dressing room door. "I'll see you at the stage door."

I nodded and then just as he began to walk off I said, "Are the fansies-"

"It's been nice knowing you," he said as he walked off.

Welp, I'm dead.  Anyways I went into the dressing room and started to take off my costume and then back into my street clothes. I put my hair in a side braid and very light make up. I then grabbed my stuff before heading on. Just as I opened the door I saw the butt head himself.

"Hey Brook," Nick said as he slug an arm around me.

"Hey back," I replied while brushing his arm off me. I smirked before saying, "So, stage dooring it's-"

"Been nice knowing you," he cut off. I rolled my eyes. By the time we got to the stage door well...I could already hear the screaming fans.  "Just stay close to me and you'll be fine." Nick then handed me a sharpie and then went out the door. I followed and well...there goes my hearing.
