Day 2: She

Addy POV:

I hear a loud boom, and I jolt awake. "Wh-" I start when I see a bright flash seep in through my curtains. Thunderstorm, great. Well, I won't be able to go to sleep until it's over, irrational fears are terrible. I made myself a cup of tea and grabbed my phone to mess around on it. I had a ton of Instagram notifications, and they read:

[addycarpenter] @sixthemusical started following you
[addycarpenter] @Aimieatkinson started following you
[addycarpenter] @millieoconnell started following you
[addycarpenter] @mucyloss started following you
[addycarpenter] you have 100+ new followers

Holy crap, I followed back the cast and others I knew but I couldn't believe it. I had barely had the role for 10 hours and the fans are already going crazy. Maybe it's because the queens don't follow many people , and when they do it's normally a new member of the cast? I don't know, I don't pay enough attention to anything for this.

I smiled as I scrolled through, liking a picture here, commenting there. Just having a bit of fun when I got a new notification,
[@addycarpenter]: Aimie... it read. Oh wait that must mean she's either liked something or something of the sort. It was a dm. Oh yeah, we didn't exchange numbers at the end of rehearsal, but still, this wasn't the most orthodox way to reach me. She could have gotten Toby, but then again it was... 2 am?! What is she doing up? They have a show tomorrow? She's not going to function right.

(AA) Hey Addy!

Aimie? What are you doing up? You have a show tomorrow (AC)

(AA) Thunderstorm woke me up lol, I can't sleep. Why are you up? You don't have a show, but your sleep is very important. Especially since Grace is going to teach you the first number tomorrow.

Hahah I'm up for the same reason. I can never sleep during storms. What are you doing? (AC)

(AA) I'm talking to you and I'm trying to calm down...

What?? What's wrong? (AC)

(AA) sudden things scare me. I'm starting to freak out, Addy, help.

Aimie call me. (AC)

I heard the tell tale call sound and immediately picked up.

"Aimie?"

"H-hey Ad-Addy," she stuttered out and I could tell she wasn't okay.

"Aimie where are you?"

"Home." She looked around like there was someone else there that was going to creep up on her at any moment.

"Aimie, darling, where is that?" I was already rising out of bed and putting on a pair of shorts. She was there for me when I needed her, and I was going to repay the favor.

Just then, a flash of lightning struck down, and Aimie screamed. "Addy, I'm scared," she breathed out softly, and I was barely able to hear it.

I poured my tea into a travel mug, I wasn't going to waste the tea, so I poured more hot water into it. "I know love, where are you, I'll come over."

"No, lightning, no hurt you," she frantically said, her head shaking faster than Henry found new wives.

"Baby, it won't hurt me, I promise. I know it's scary, but I need you to tell me where you are. Please darling." I slipped on my combat boots made of fake leather, they would keep my feet warm when I went outside. I knew she was in walking distance of the theatre, but I didn't know where exactly. Everyone else would call an uber or walk to the coach station.
