"Uh- uh-" I look at Daveed and well I quickly back away,  turn around grab my bag and make a run for the door on stage right. Of course not before catching everyone's shocked looks.

I run out the door and don't know which way to go!

So I just make run straight and  make a right and I find a bathroom, this is where I lock the door and lean against it

So I just make run straight and make a right and I find a bathroom, this is where I lock the door and lean against it. What the heck was that! Does Daveed like like me or is he just playing with me? I knew he was flirtatious but to kiss me... in front of everyone!

I don't have much time to think before there is a knock on the door.

"Y/N please open the door " I hear Renée's voice

"Just give me a second, please" I basically whimpered. "We just want to help, please just talk to us"

Realizing that she won't leave until I let her in. So I get up and say " Okay but only you Renée, please. Only you." And I hear her say "I will bring her out to the stage, I got this. " And I'm pretty sure I hear Pippa say "sure, okay. I will head back."

Then Renée comes in and locks the door back behind her. "Daveed is an idiot" is the first thing she says and I actually smiled a little and muttered "no kidding" And she giggles which seems to be contagious because then I do as well. 

"I mean don't get me wrong he is cute but my date with Leslie, how would I even explain that to him. I don't want him to hear it from anyone else, he might get the wrong idea." I'm now back on the verge on tears and Renée swoops in with the solution "Well, you can't explain from in here and how could he get the wrong idea if the kiss sent you running. Was it really that bad?" 

"No, not at all, he is actually quite good, just not the man I want to kiss." "So you want to kiss Leslie" She said with a smirk on her face and I go wide eyed and I'm blushing like crazy,and quickly blurt "wait that's not what I meant, I don't want to kiss Leslie, well not not want to kiss him but not necessarily kiss him, I mean-" she cuts me off with "I was just playing with you... kinda" muttering that last part.

"Oh." is all I say and now kind of embarrassed I just admire the floor, unable to look her in the eye anymore, I just bite my lip. She walks over to me and hugs me. "Everything is going to be fine, you will tell Leslie when you are ready and I'm sure he will understand.

Leslie's POV

 "You and y/n kissed!!!" No, no, no, no... no, no, no, no, No !! 

He waltzed in to dressing room right after me and before I can even put my things down he gave me that news! 

"Yep and a bet is a bet so you're going to have to cancel your little date" 

I don't know what to say but it doesn't really matter anyway because what happens next is definitely worse.

Phillipa comes in yelling " A bet, really! A bet, Leslie! All of this to prepare her for your date and you treat her like some prize to win!"

"come on Pippa it's not like that," I pause for a second "okay it was- it was kind of like that but not exactly like that, look I'm sorry " How am I going to get out of this one! I peak over at Daveed and he is smirking. I swear if I could move without Pippa killing me, I would wipe that smirk off his face.


[Finally Leslie came back, Yay! Forgive me for taking so long but good news, I just graduated!]
