Ready?
Summer has me sitting on the couch so I don't have a panic attack. I've had them ever since I got out of the hospital. Eventually I calm down enough to.move around and let people near me.
''Sierra, we're going to go over Till I Hear You Sing. We need you." Andrew says popping his head in the door. I nod and stand slowly. Summer helps me out to the stage. Liz sees me and looks at me worried.
"I'm fine Liz. I'll tell you when we get a chance."
She nods and I go out onto stage, passing Tam. I shake and move away from him. I get onstage to see Ramin. I smile at him. He pulls me into his arms quickly.
"I'm sorry Sie......"
"It's alright Ramin. Let's get in place."
He nods and goes to the piano. I stand beside it, stiff. Andrew cues the music and Ramin begins. I see something on the stage that Ramin can trip over. It's directly in his path. I can't do.anything because Andrew would be a little upset but I can't help it.
"Stop!!!! Ramin don't!!" I scream as he comes closer. He doesn't see it and trips on it. I hear a sickening crack. I run to him and pick his head up.
"Ramin...look at me....come on baby...."
"I'm fine Sie.....it was just a little fall...." He says before yelping in pain. I move to his leg quickly and feel for a break. I feel it right above his ankle.
"It's broke....."
He curses and pulls me close.
"Sierra......it have some very bad news.....with Ramin having a broken bone....our backup is.....Tam..." Andrew says quietly.
I stop cold.
"W-Who would b-be Raoul?"
"I can see if I can get somebody I know. He's new to the broadway community. His name is Alex Smith."
((Yes I know. He's not real. At least I don't think. I just made him up.))
I nod. Ramin looks at me with sorrowful eyes.
"Who put a golf club on the stage in the first place!?!?" Summer asks holding up one.
I glare at Tam who just slightly smirks and hides it quickly. I just stare at him and Ramin sees my glare.
"Let's get through Till I Hear You Sing......" Andrew told us. Summer and Liz helped Ramin offstage. Tam sits at the piano. I go back to my spot. Tam starts singing and soon it's the part where he puts a necklace around me. He puts the one he has in his hands on me and pulls a little too tight. I choke silently and move towards the tube where I have to be. I want to claw this necklace off. But I know I can't. The song ends.
"Good job you two!" Andrew congratulates.
I claw at the necklace.
"Summer!" I wheeze. She runs up to me and takes it off. I wheeze more, holding my neck.
"Let me see Sierra!" She says trying to move my hands. I move them and she gasps. I pull my phone out for the camera and I see a deep purple bruise.
"Tam Mutu!! You bastard!! You choked her and she couldn't do anything!!! You know she couldn't have stopped the scene!!" Summer yells, running up to him. "You should be ashamed!! You could've damaged her vocal cords!!" She yells slapping him. He grabs her hands tightly. It made her yelp in pain.
"Tam!! Get out of here now!! You're fired!!" Andrew screams. I flinch and fall to the floor. My hands go back up to my throat.
"Sierra. I need you to sing a note." Andrew says crouching down to her.
I try to sing a note and my voice cracks.
Andrew sighs. "We need to get you and Ramin to the hospital.....now."
I nod and stand up. Summer helps me. Ramin hadn't seen what happened. He's going to freak.
