Idina POV:
I walked into the theatre and straight into my dressing room. What did I get myself into? I glanced at a photo of me and James when we first started If/Then and glared. Why does he have to be married?
I changed out of my sweatshirt and sweatpants and into my costume. Dang, this is gonna be a weird rehearsal, especially if my hormones don't stop going crazy everytime I see him!
I jogged out onto the stage to see that James hadn't come out yet. Thank god, that gives me some time to get my feelings together.
Anthony came over to me. As usual, he immediately noticed that something was wrong.
"Are you gonna be okay to do the show Idina?" He asked me.
"Yeah, yeah I'm fine." I said, not really paying attention.
He sighed, knowing that he wouldn't get any answers out of me and walked away.
"Places!" the director yelled
James came out in his army uniform and a smile on his face. Something about that goofy grin always made me laugh.
"What's so funny?" James asked me, making an even funnier frowny face.
"Y-your smile is s-so goofy James," I told him as he began laughing too.

James POV:
Every time she laughs, I laugh too. It used to be that way when my wife laughed, but lately, we've just grown apart.
I purposefully came out later because everytime I see Idina, I want to kiss her, which is unacceptable since I am "happily" married and have a kid. Don't get me wrong, I love Jacqueline and Oliver, but Jacqueline and I have been very distant from each other lately.
We got to our places on stage as the music began playing and Idina sang 'I hate you' beautifully as usual, but something seemed different. She seemed to be staring at me. Oh James, stop letting your emotions get the best of you.
The music kept playing but Idina stopped singing. Oh! that's my queue! I mentally face palmed myself as the director yelled "Remember your queue please!"
We restarted the scene and when Idina stage-kissed me, I felt butterflies in my stomach. Stupid feelings! I began giving myself a mental pep talk on how I should not feel like this, especially as a married man!

Idina's POV:
After the rehearsal, I ran into my dressing room and locked the door behind me. I let out a long sigh and dropped myself onto the couch. I was about to doze off when there was a knock at my door. I opened it to see Anthony with a look of disapproval on his face.
"I know what's going on," he said, giving me a knowing look.
"What's going on then?" I asked him, slightly confused about what he was talking about.
"I saw the way you were looking at James and I'm pretty sure he saw it too. You were staring at him like he had grown a third eye!"
"I was? Uh-I mean- I was not-"
"Yes you were, you were staring at a married man with an amazed look," he replied with a mischievous face, "Dee's got a crush! Dee's got a crush!"
"What?! I do not! He's married, Anthony, what are you talking about!?"
He sighed. "If you say so Dee, but I'm watching you...." He backed out of the room slowly and I laughed.
I closed the door and almost immediately after there was another knock.
"Who is it?" I asked, not wanting to get off my couch.
"It's James, can I come in?"
