*NINI POV*
I tried to control my breathing. Matt and I were about to audition for Cinderella in 5 minutes.
"It's gonna be great Neen!! You're so talented." He smiled at me rubbing my back.
"Thanks." I said, nervously.
A woman with a clipboard came out of the room. "Nina Salazar-Roberts?"
I slightly raised my hand and smiled as I went inside the audition room. I looked back to see Matt, and he mouthed, "You'll do great," to me.
The same woman that called me in, sat on a chair and started writing on her clipboard. "Who will you be auditioning for today?"
I cleared my throat. "Cinderella."
She wrote on her clipboard. "Okay! Begin whenever you're ready."
I took two deep breaths. Okay. Here we go.

*MATT POV*
As Nini was auditioning in her room, I had many thoughts run through my head.
What if we were both cast as the main leads? Man, that would be amazing. We would hang out a lot, sing a lot, and perhaps k-
"Oh my gosh," Nini fanned herself with her hand. "That was so bad."
Oh.
Well.
Nini may think it was bad, but maybe it actually wasn't.
-A few days later-
*NINI POV*
I drove to Matt's apartment, as soon as I got the email. I swung my hand up to knock, but before I could, Matt opened the door.
"I'm so nervous." He said, bringing me in for a hug.
"Same. But, whatever happens...it'll be okay."
"...Yeah. Gotta remember that."
We sat down on his couch and nervously opened the Gmail app. I closed my eyes as Matt found the email: Cinderella Cast List.
"You can open your eyes!!!" Matt said, I could hear the excitement in his voice. It must be good then!!! I opened my eyes to see:
Cinderella Cast List
Cinderella -- Nina Salazar-Roberts
Prince Charming – Matt Sanford
Jaq – Harry Evans
Gus – Yosef Reilly

I faced Matt. Holy cow.
I got the lead. And so did he.
I screamed out of joy as I hugged him.
