Amy's POV 
I snuggled into Anthony's chest whilst Charlie began to eat the scones I had cooked her. I could feel Anthony's fingers play with my hair. Right now, I feel so lucky to be here. I looked up at him. He continue to watch TV. He was so focused. I examined his face and smiled when we made eye contact. 
"You know, we've got to leave soon." He said and I pouted. "Do you wanna come back to mine after the show?" He asked me. 
"Oh sure. Sounds like fun." I winked and kissed his cheek. 
"Oh Amy. I didn't know you had company." Dad said as he entered the room. 
"Oh Dad." I froze. I looked at Anthony. Shit. He looked like he was about to start sweating. Is he nervous? I noticed Dad had one of his arms linked to a lady next to him. "H-how was work?" I asked him, sitting up straight and placing my hand on Anthony's knee. He seemed to relax. 
"Pretty good. I didn't think you'd be home. This is Cassandra. She works in the same building as me. I invited her over to have dinner. I was going to introduce her to Charlie first. But seeing you're here-" 
"I'm his daughter Amy. It's nice to meet you." I said and got up to shake her hand. 
"You too. Just call me Cassie." She smiled and I returned the favour. Dad coughed and looked at Anthony. 
"Oh Dad. This is Anthony, one of the guys in the play I was telling you about." I told him and Dad glared at him. What's his problem? 
"It's nice to meet you sir. I'm Anthony." Anthony said and shook my Dads hand. Dad grunted. 
"Okay. Well, we best be off." I said ushered Anthony out of the house. This was so awkward. 
"Oh you're not staying for dinner?" Cassandra asked me. 
"No no. It's alright. It was nice meeting you though." I waved and left with Anthony. "That was so awkward. I'm so sorry." I said taking his hand as we entered the elevator. 
"I don't think your Dad likes me very much." Anthony chuckled and I smiled. I gave him a peck on the cheek. 
"Don't take it to heart." I said as we left my apartment building.

I was sitting in Phillipa, Renee and Jasmines dressing room. I was playing a game on my phone, flicking through my twitter feed, and texting Anthony whilst the girls were getting ready. I took a sip out of my water bottle and looked at Phillipa in the mirror as Renne and Jasmine left the room to do warm ups. 
"You feeling better today?" She asked me. 
"Oh much better. I think it was all the stress of the day had finally caught up to me." I smiled and looked down at my phone to another text message from Anthony. 
                          
- Meet me by my dressing room. I wanna give you something 😘
                          
"Go see lover boy." Phillipa laughed. 
"H-how did you know it was him?" I gulped. 
"Your whole face went red." Phillipa told me. "You can not control your feelings. I know you Amy." Phillipa said and I playing hit her arm as I walked out of the door. I bumped into Jason. 
"Can you tell everyone that we have twenty minutes until curtain?" He asked me and I nodded and made my way to Anthony's room, who he was sharing with Daveed and Oak. 
"Amy! Did you bring any food with you today?" Oak asked me bubbly as always. 
"No I didn't. Sorry. I don't have work for a couple of days. I can probably make you something tomorrow if you want though." I told him and leaned against the door frame. 
"You don't have to do that for me." Oak said chuckling. 
"What do you want me to make you?" I asked him and he fixed his collar up. 
"Surprise me." He said looking into his mirror. 
"No worries." I smiled and Anthony walked out of the room grabbing my hand and I followed him to a secluded place. "You know freckles, you should really be getting ready to do a show." I told him and he laughed and cupped my face in his hands. 
"But I wanted my good luck kiss." He smiled and pecked my lips. 
"You know, you don't need to tell me every time you want to kiss me." I giggled and pecked his lips. 
"I know." He smiled and pecked my lips again. He makes me feel weak at the knees. I placed my hands on his shoulders. "Does Jasmine know I'm staying the night? I don't want her to hear us." I whispered and he shook his head. 
"Oh were you wanting something more from me tonight?" He winked. 
"Isn't that what you meant?" I giggled and he nodded. 
"I think Jasmine might be going out for drinks with some of the cast." Anthony told me and I nodded. 
"Well, in that case." I smiled and gave him one last kiss. "I'll see you later freckles." I smiled and walked off.

I was sitting with Jason backstage during intermission. 
"You coming out for drinks tonight Amy?" Sydney asked me and I nodded my head. 
"I can't remember. I'm not 21 yet." I told him. 
"Oh yeah. When's your birthday?" He asked me chugging on some water. 
"Forth of July." I smiled. Anthony walked in with Daveed and Jon Rua. 
"That's so dope!" Jon said and hi-fived me. 
"You wanna know what's even cooler? I was born at 7:04 in the morning." I told him. 
"Dude. That's the cool thing ever. You have the best birthday date in the world." He laughed. We continued to catch when Hope, Betsy and Carleigh walked in. "Amy! You're a girl." Betsy said. 
"I'm pretty sure I am, yeah." I said confused.
"We're trying to do this quiz thing online, and they wanna know who is hotter. Zac Efron or Liam Hemsworth." She asked me. 
"See, I said Zac." Carleigh said. 
"Zac Efron for the win. You know, I know him." Thayne shouted running pass the door. 
"We know, you've told us a thousand times." Hope rolled her eyes. "You see, I said Liam. Have you seen him in the Hunger Games?" 
"You know, he kills everyone in the end?" Daveed said. 
"Dude. I haven't finished reading it!" Carleigh sighed. 
"So Amy. Efron or Hemsworth?" Betsy asked me. 
"Well, Zac was pretty good in High School Musical, but because my mom is from New Zealand which is near Australia, I've gotta say Liam Hemsworth." I said and Hope hugged me. 
"I knew there was a reason we were friend." She squealed. "Apart from the fact you're nice and all and you give us free food." She laughed and walked out to speak to Thayne. 
"Okay guys. Get outta here." Jason said telling everyone to get out of the stage management area. 
"I don't come on for a couple more songs. Can I stay?" Anthony asked looking at me and then at Jason. 
"Fine then Ramos." He rolls he eyes. I smiled at Anthony and smiled. 
"Amy! Can you come help us move this?" Lin yelled from the other side of stage. If he had his microphone on, everyone probably could have heard him. 
"No worries. I'm coming." I said getting up from my seat and running to find Lin.
