Chapter 5: Getting Ready
(A/N Jamie's new outfit (since most of them have new ones), but as a gorilla.)
Jamie was laying in her bed just on her phone when it buzzed due to a text from Johnny.
"Wanna FaceTime? Just wanna chat while seeing your beautiful face."
She smiled and responded.
"Sure. I'd love to chat while seeing your handsome face."
After she sent it, she called Johnny for a FaceTime, to which he answered immediately.
"Hey, beautiful," Johnny said.
"Hey, handsome," Jamie returned.
They chuckled a bit.
"So how are you holding up after what happened with the scout?" he asked.
She sighed and answered, "Been better. I know I was the co-lead, but we all worked hard for this scout to like us and she doesn't think we can make it in Redshore. Especially when Cheyenne, Courtney, and the others got contracts for big musicals in Blue Beach."
(A/N I felt I needed to explain what happened to the other group from "Sing Part 2".)
"Yeah. It's ridiculous. But you can't please everyone," Johnny told her.
"Believe me. I know," Jamie nodded.
"There could be another scout from Redshore or somewhere else and we can get a shot then," he continued.
"Also, what's a journey without a few bumps in the road?" she added.
"Exactly," Johnny agreed then mentioned, "But seriously, you were amazing tonight."
Jamie smiled and told him, "Thank you. You were amazing as well, my Mad Hatter."
He chuckled and said, "My Allison in Wonderland."
She giggled at that.
"So how are Marcus, Stan, and Barry doing?" she wondered.
"They're good. The community service is going well. I know it was a warning for them after Stan and Barry were released and you bailed Dad out, but it's still a bit unfair they have to do this after the charges were dropped," Johnny answered.
"Yeah, but you have all three of them back and that's all that matters," she reminded.
He nodded at that then she got a text from Rosita. He noticed her face change.
"What's going on?" Johnny asked.
"Rosita just texted me, saying Buster wants all of us to come to the bus station by the looks of the address with our bags packed. She says he's gonna try to get us auditions with Jimmy Crystal himself," Jamie explained, shocked at the end.
"Is he serious? After what the scout said?" he wondered.
"It's Buster Moon. Of course he's serious," she pointed out.
"Well, let's pack up. Hopefully you and Rosita can find a babysitter at short notice," Johnny told her, getting off his bed.
"Knowing her, she'll get Norman to," Jamie remarked as she got up, making Johnny laugh.
"Do you and Rosita need a ride? I can get my dad to drop us off," he offered.
"That would be great. I'll let Rosita know and we should be ready real soon," she nodded with a smile.
"Good deal," he said.
"I love you," Jamie replied.
"I love you too," Johnny said then they hung up.
Jamie put her phone in her pocket then rushed to Rosita's room, knocking on the door and Rosita looked over to see her.
"Hey. Did you get my text?" Rosita asked.
"I did and Johnny offered him and his dad to take us to the bus station soon," Jamie informed.
"Okay. Sounds good. And I got Norman to babysit the kids for the night," Rosita replied.
"I knew it," Jamie stated before leaving and hearing Rosita chuckle.
She then started packing her red suitcase as much as she could then she and Rosita headed down to the front and said their goodbyes to Norman and the piglets. Then they went outside and waited for Johnny and Marcus.
"You excited?" Rosita asked.
"Yes. You?" Jamie wondered.
"Yes. I've always dreamt of doing this," Rosita answered.
"I mean, Redshore is a huge deal," Jamie added.
"Yeah," Rosita nodded then added, "Your parents would be proud. I don't just mean for Redshore, but for everything you've done. And I know they would love Johnny almost as much as you do."
Jamie smiled and said, "Yeah. You, Norman, the piglets, and the cast are my family too, you know."
They hugged when Marcus and Johnny pulled up.
"Are we breaking up a family moment?" Marcus teased.
The two women chuckled at that.
"You're good," Rosita said.
Johnny then let them in the truck before driving off. Marcus drove, Rosita was in the passenger seat, and Johnny and Jamie cuddled in the back.
