Leslie Odom Jr. X Reader

Chapter 13

"I'm not the one you need to be apologizing to" "Wait Pippa you aren't going to tell her are you?!?"

"No, you are, BEFORE the date Leslie and beg her to forgive you. " "Pippa!" She leaves probably to search for y/n and I follow her forgetting about Daveed for the moment. 

"Pippa please I can't tell her, that would break her! She would never talk to me again let alone go on that date with me. Pippa!!" She finally stops and looks at me with a look that made me wish she hadn't stop at all.

" You should have thought about that Leslie!" "It was Daveed's idea and at the time it didn't sound all that bad." 

"What was Daveed's idea?" I really wish I didn't hear her precious little voice right now.

Y/N's POV

"Alright Renée , you got me out the bathroom but how am I going to show my face in there?!" I gradually began to yell, no longer feeling the confidence I had in the bathroom. Before Renée could answer we both heard someone scream for Pippa, so we walk towards the voices

"It was Daveed's idea and at the time it didn't sound all that bad." Ah Leslie's here.

And now I'm curious, and it flows out of my mouth before I can catch i "What was Daveed's idea?"

No one answered they just stare at me. And all I heard was Lin yelling "Places everyone, places please." 

"Thank you places!" said everyone in earshot.

As we all move obediently to the stage, I look at Leslie and walk faster to try and catch up to him but not without Daveed throwing his hand over my shoulder and says " you know it kind of hurt that you ran off like that after our kiss" and my face heats up and I'm just hoping Leslie didn't hear that.

Detaching myself from Daveed "Um listen Diggs, me and you aren't-"" Hey Y/N can I see what you guys got through this morning!" yelled Andy, our choreographer. " Um yea of course Andy" I look back at Daveed and I swear he spoke through his smirk  " We can talk about it later baby." And walks away I get ready to run and Andy counts us down.

I'm trying to keep up but I can't stop thinking about what they were talking about and what Leslie could possibly be thinking.

What if he doesn't want to go on our date anymore. Does he know about the kiss?? I bumped into Emmy during the run through and throws everyone off their blocking and Andy stops us. 

"I'm gonna get it I swear, I just go distracted it wont happen again." Andy asked me "Is there a problem Y/N?" He looks concerned and now everyone is looking at me and I can't fall apart in front everyone, so for the second time today I make a run for it.

3rd Person POV

"I will go get her." all the Schuyler sisters says at once.

"No girls I will. Everyone places for Wait For It and go into Stay Alive, walk-through and vocals only, I will be back" "Javier [Lin's Understudy] stand in for me on Stay Alive." Lin gives out orders and swiftly walks out the say door Y/N did.

Y/N's POV

I'm almost to my dressing room and someone grabs my arm and begins to pull me away. I look at them and it's Lin. "Lin! What are you doing? Where are we going?" He doesn't answer me, he just keeps going. 

We finally stops after what seem like forever and I let out a desperate cry "I'm messing up everything! Maybe you shouldn't have called me in!"

"I called you in because I saw something in you, now just look." He motions downward and I realize that we are in the balcony and I could see the whole stage and Alex, the director, was counting them down and Leslie starts singing "Theodosia writes me a letter everyday... " 

I look back at Lin and ask him "why are we up here?" "Well apparently you don't think you belong down there so, tell me is this where you want to be?"

I look back down and Leslie is truly amazing he moves with such confidence, he is so different when he is on stage. A demanding presence that steals your attention no matter what else is happening on stage. 

"I want to be down there Lin but everyone seems like they already have a place and I just don't see where I fit. I feel like I have done nothing but cause  problem for everyone I talk to." I say not even bothering to take my attention off of Leslie. 

"Okay, maybe you're right." I look at Lin a little taken aback but without further discussion he grabs my hand and begins to drag around once again. "Lin, what are you doing now?"

"I say we should go back to the basics then." He shrugs but doesn't stop walking and I'm just forced to follow.

[Sorry, you guys probably keep getting notifications for old chapters. It's just before I can write the next chapter I have to go back and read the previous ones and every time I read them I find grammatical errors or inconsistencies and I feel obligated to fix it. Forgive me for my inability let myself make mistakes.]

[AN: Anyways... Hamilton is on Disney+ !!! So, did you guys watch Hamilton or perform with them? I did a little bit of both.]
