"Come here, Charlie." I sat on the living room floor as Charlie hid under the couch. "Come here, baby." I pat the floor in front of me and sigh as she still doesn't come out. "Lin!"
"What?" Lin walked out of the kitchen and looked at me.
"Can you get Charlie?" I asked and he came over.
"You've had her for like two days, and she's already hiding from you." I rolled my eyes as Lin reached under the couch with a treat in his hand. "Hey, Char." Lin cooed, "Here Bails."
"Thank you, what are you working on, you've haven't left the kitchen for like 2 hours." Lin took a deep breath.
"Pippa is leaving to work on another musical." My face fell.
"What? I'm not gonna see her anymore?" Lin shrugged at my answer.
"You'll still be able to text her, and I got tickets for her new musical." I bit my bottom lip as Lin rubbed his forehead.
"Don't worry about it, you don't have to worry about it," He repeats himself, stuttering, "It's my job, I understand they're family too, but it's work right now." Lin kissed my forehead and went back to the kitchen.
I pulled my phone out of my back pocket and called Pippa.
"Hey, Bailey, everything okay?" She asked when she answered.
"Yeah Pip, I'm okay," I paused for a second, "I heard what happened." Pippa took a deep breath.
"Bails, I'm sorry, I've just been working on Hamilton for so long and this new opp-"
"Pip." I cut her off, "I'm not mad at you. Do you wanna go get lunch?"
"Yeah," she replied, "I'll be there in twenty minutes, nothing to fancy we're gonna be doing a lot of walking."
"Since when?" I asked her walking to my room, "I thought we were getting lunch."
"We are, I'm gonna take you to a few places, you've never really had a tourist day so while we have a day we'll do tourist things, ok I'm on my way love you bye."
"Love you too, bye." I hung up and opened my closet. I looked over everything, then looked outside, it looked somewhat hot outside. I grabbed a pink and white romper, and white converse.
I brushed my teeth and pulled my hair into a high ponytail.
"Lin!" I yelled walking down the hall.
"First, what? Second your lucky Seb isn't sleeping." I rolled my eyes and walked into the kitchen.
"I'm going out with Pippa, she didn't say for how long." Lin nodded his head.
"Just know if it was anyone other than Pippa, an actual angel, I'd say no, and yell at you? I still don't know how to parent teenagers." I laughed at Lin. "When Pip gets here I have to meet Vanessa to her work and pick up Sebastian from his Abuela's house."
"Ok," I replied, "She said we were doing tourist things because I hadn't done those."
"So probably like M&M store, Disney store." I shrugged.
"That's the reason we're doing it because I haven't done tourist stuff. I start school soon right, will I need stuff."
"Don't worry about it." Lin replied. "I got you."
"Whatever." I plopped myself on the couch and was scrolling Twitter, pretty much the entire fandom loved me, they thought I was like the greatest ever. But there it was, my first hate comment. It was on the link to the video I made after my attempt. She just wants Lin's attention, why else would she pull out a sob story then do that? "Lin?" I asked and he looked up, letting me know he was listening, "How would you feel if I used a middle finger emoji?"
"Umm... as long as you don't do it in real life? Sure?" Lin shrugged and I clicked the Tweet, replying with three middle finger emojis. Almost immediately, like 3 minutes later, Daveed, Anthony, and Chris were on me.
Ant: I know that was mean, but middle finger your like 5
I couldn't help but roll my eyes as he said the 'your like 5, but I also couldn't help but ask a small question.
'Why are you defending the person telling me I'm an attention seeker?"
Ant: I'm not, I'm saying you can't just go around using it
'I don't go around using it! If I went around using it it'd be all over my twitter. But it's not.'
Ant: But you still used it, and I want you to apologize
'Are you kidding me?!? You cuss the most out of everyone! So I want you to apologize everytime you cuss.'
Ant: and ? I'm an adult you aren't.
'You aren't my dad, you can't tell me what I can and can't use.'
'And Lin told me I could use it.'
Ant: since when do you do what Lin says?
'Since he's my dad.'
Ant: (Read).
I groaned as Pippa knocked on the door.
"Bye Lin!" I yelled not giving Pippa time to come in, or Lin to reply. "I wish I was legal."
"Why?" Pip laughed.
"I want alcohol." She rolled her eyes as we walked down W 46th Street.
"What happened?" She asked and I gave her a '
'do you really want to know' look.
"Anthony and I got into a fight." I sighed and she asked what happened, "So this girl left a hate comment and I asked Lin if I could virtually flip her off and he said yes so I did, and here." I handed her my phone and let her read the conversation.
"He's being so dumb." Pippa sighed, "Do you want Jazz to yell at him, I want Jazz to yell at him." I followed her down some street I forgot to look at the name of.
"No, I don't want to come between them. I'm also mad at myself because I considered him an older brother."
"You'll be okay." She assured and I shrugged, muttering an I guess.
"What are we having for lunch?" I asked as I noticed the street we were on had like no food places.
"M&Ms." Pippa answered pointing to the giant M&M store.
"You're kidding me." I replied, as we walked in.
"Follow." I followed her up an escalator and a flight of stairs until we reached a giant M&M dispenser. "Here." She handed me a plastic bag and told me to fill it up.
I walked down the row and filled up the bag with different M&Ms. I put in purple ones, green ones, pink ones, and just other random mixtures. I stood behind Pippa and waited for her to finish filling her bags.
"Ok, what now." I asked carrying my bag down the set of stairs.
"Now we walk around New York and eat our M&Ms." I nodded as Pippa stepped in line.
The line moved relatively quickly and soon enough we paid and were out the door.
"So what are you working on now?" I asked as we stepped out of the door and opened our M&M bags.
"I'm working on a new musical called Amelie." She started, "It's based on a French movie, I'm really excited."
"I'm sad you're leaving, but you'll visit right?" I asked and she nodded.
"Of course." Pippa pushed me to the right of her, away from a big crowd of guys. "And I'll pick you up and we can do this whenever you want and I can get you whenever."
"Thanks." I smiled. "You're the best. Now where are we going ?"
"We're going to the theatres, like for different musicals. I love seeing the crowds of people. See?" Pippa pointed to the School of Rock theatre. There was no crowd, but she was right. It was cool. It's like, soon enough there will be fans there and they will be able to see a different reality for 2 hours.
"Yeah, it's pretty cool." I admitted.
"Next up Wicked. And I think those are he only musicals you know, besides Hamilton, and least according to Lin." I nodded as she ate a handful of M&Ms.
"That's pretty much all." I shrugged, "I'm open to anything really though. I like to think of myself as open minded."
"You're really open minded." Pippa agreed and I thanked her.
Even if I can't see her at the theatre most days, like normal, as long as we can do this once in a while I'll be okay.

So I went to New York to see Cats and I would like to provide a list of times I cried on that trip.
•when I saw Richard Rodgers theatre
•When I saw the Eugene O'Neill theatre
• when I saw the Winter Garden theatre
There were a few other theatres but those were the main ones. I'm going back to New York twice, once to see Phantom of the Opera and a second time to see School of Rock. so when I go I hope I can get closer to Richard Rodgers because the only time I got to see it on this trip was driving past it. Ok that's all thanks for reading sorry I haven't updated❤
