Unexpectedly In Love

Prolouge

Phillipa's p.o.v.

"Steven!" I giggled as my boyfriend showered me with kisses. He stopped for a brief moment, a smile plastered across both of our faces. "Damn, I'm so lucky to have you in my life." Steven let go of me as I fell back into the couch. I blushed furiously. This handsome man and I were celebrating our 1-year anniversary together. It's not much, but god that year was the best year of my entire life!
We met in the most romantic comedy way ever. We bumped into each other, my latte getting all over my favorite sweater. He gave me his phone number, not because he fell in love with me right then and there, but he was willing to pay for any burns I got since my insurance was shit. There was an awkwardly adorable silence before we parted ways.
About 3 weeks after that stupid rom-com meeting, we started dating. I was the one who said I loved him, through text. There was about 5 minutes of me playing Candy Crush or whatever when he replied. I felt my cheeks go redder than my cheeks during winter, though it was more warm than winter.

Steven: I love you too. 😳🤭

We wouldn't move into the same apartment about 2 months before our anniversary. I felt my heart nearly soar when he said there was only one bedroom. Of course, he had to be a nice guy and said he'd sleep on the couch. Honestly, I don't blame him for choosing the couch. That was the best couch I passed out on, at least several times. Thanks hangovers.
I fell back into the present moment when my phone rang. It was my best friend.

Y/N is calling you...

I answered naturally. "Hey, what's up?" Apparently her boyfriend was starting a hip-hop rap musical? He had asked Y/N if she'd know anybody who would be a good fit for the female lead role. I reluctantly agreed to go meet the two for a look at the hardly completed script.

Y/N's p.o.v.

Lin and I met when my dumbass went to audition for In The Heights. I got to sing a verse before he got up. "You got the role!" What role, you may ask? Vanessa. Who would I find as Usnavi? Lin. The first time I went to rehearsals, we did all of the songs and dialogue that didn't have Vanessa in them at all. Towards the end, I was finally getting to actually act as my character.
A few rehearsals in, Lin hosted a New Years party. A few beers in, he confessed his undying love for me. Unfortunately for my closeted ass, it wasn't Lin being drunk. It was Lin being Lin. Somewhere down the line, we ended up dating. I don't recall when, but it was between the time he confessed his love and the night we'd leave for a Caribbean vacation.
During the vacation, it seemed he was always lazing around with a non-fiction novel in his hands. I'd soon later he was making a musical on a historical figure that wasn't quite known. Of course, looking back at it, it's hard to imagine the $10 face not being popular.  He wanted me to play the role of a scandalous woman, which was the actress he'd have a heated make out scene with. I rolled my eyes. Why not? What could happen that would make me regret this decision?

A/N: sorry if this is shit. Idk how to write lmfao. Anyways, enjoy the prologue and pray I don't disappear if this gains some popularity somehow?
