Chapter 1

Your POV

Walking down West 46th Street at 7:30 am on my way to work. I am staring at the Richard Rodgers Theatre as I walk. My hopes and dreams are inside that place. I work a coffee shop just past it, it's called Drink NYC inside AEO.

My phone is ringing someone is the bottom of my backpack... Great day not to have pockets 🙄🙃.

So I'm shuffling through my bag and finally pick up on what I pretty sure is the last ring.

"Hello!" I practically yell into the phone.

"Hello, this is Lin-Manuel Miranda, I am looking for (Y/N)."

Trying not to freak out because it is THE Lin-Manuel Miranda, the writer of In The Heights and the musical I just auditioned for a week and a half ago, Hamilton! 

Hoping I got the part, I take a deep breath and answered "This is (Y/N), What's Up?" coming out a lot less cool  than I thought it would.

And this whole time, I don't stop walking because I don't want to be late for work.

"Great, well I was calling to offer you a role in my new musical, your audition really impressed us..."

He kept talking and I am just walking into the coffee shop at this point I'm hyperventilating! They like me! Lin's voice beings me back "Hey, you still there?" I reply "Yes!" again practically screaming. Then apologizing to the 3 customers we had in the shop.

" Okay so will you take the role?" asked Lin. I have no idea what he role he sad though...

"I'm sorry I missed what you said, come again."

"Is it a bad time, I can call you later"

Again yelling not so accidentally this time "No , please I would love to be apart of your show"

"Great I will see you at Richard Rodgers Theater at 4pm, I just want to give you a chance to meet the cast, they may be a little tired from rehearsal but I think they will love you" Lin says excitedly.

~*~

I get off at 2pm, so I will probably sneak over there a little early. I respond "Great see you then, Mr.Miranda."

He says "Please call me Lin."

I say " Okay, bye Lin" 

"Bye (Y/N)"

Work seems to speed by and 2 o clock hit and I'm off to the theater. As I cross the street and I can't believe any of this is happening. 

I get inside of the theater and I check in with the lady at the desk and she calls someone to bring me to the back. [AN: I have no idea if this is how it works but lets pretend though.]

Lin is surprised for about 6 seconds but he recovers, smiles and I finally get what role he has me here for and introduces me quite loudly by saying " this is (Y/N), she will be joining the family! Be nice!" He then goes back to talking to one of the actors possibly. 

"Hi, I'm Jonathan Groff." the first person to make it to me says. Not like there was a line to meet me everyone else sort of just filed out of the room. 

"Hi, I'm (Y/N). Nice to meet you." I reach my hand out to shake his but he slings his arm over my shoulder. And we are now facing everyone and he is pointing out the cast and giving these new faces names.

"Thanks Jonathan"  he laughs "No problem and please call me Groff"

"Cool Groff, I think I'm just gonna take a look around" 

He responds " Sure here get my number and if you need me just shoot me a text." 

"Okay, thanks!" We exchange numbers and off I went.
