*Pippa's POV*

The show was a complete success, well it at least felt like that. Everything seemed perfect and my heart was racing from all the excitement.

I was walking to my dressing room when I was pulled into someone else's.

"What- wow, why-?" I questioned when I felt a pair of lips meet mine. "Mmm, Lin..?" She mumbled into the kiss.

"Sorry.." He whispered pulling away. "I couldn't help myself..." he told her blushing a bit.

"It's Fine Lin.." she whispered pecking his lips. "Don't worry, Okay?" She whispered pecking his lips once more.

"Yeah, Okay.." he whispered pressing his lips to mine and I immediately kissed back.

We couldn't help but get caught up in what we were doing, our lips moving together. His arms wrapping around my waist, mine going around his neck.

We were so completely engrossed in each other we didn't see Renée enter the room. Until she cleared her throat in a very loud way.

Lin and I practically jumped away from each other a dark blush spreading across my face. And Lin immediately freaking out.

"What did I tell you about him being all touchy-touchy." Renée said directly to me completely ignoring Lin who was currently staring at her with wide eyes, a look of complete shock and slight horror on his face. "Your lucky it was just me and not well any one else in the cast or crew."

"Yeah..." I sighed. "But that's never really happened before this was the first time."

"Well I you want this thing to stay secret, you'll have to be a bit better at hiding it." She said with a chuckle. "Anyways Lin I have a message for you." She told him.

"Huh- what?" Lin questioned still looking a bit freaked.

"Someone called a family member or something I'd at tor house." She told him. "They want you to come as soon as you can." And with that she was gone closing the door behind her as she left.

"Oh no.. my mom and dad must have gone back to my place.." He nodded as he spoke. "I'll have to go then.

"What about the party?" I asked him.

"I'll try to rush over." He said simply. "And Uh, Renée, she knew. How?" He asked his eyebrows furrowing a bit.

"Well, I... told her." I started. "But I didn't really want to it's just Jaz and Renée thought you were sexually harassing me-"

"They thought what?" He questioned his eyebrows furrowed completely.

"Well you were touching me."

"What?"

"At the house warming party, you kept like touching me, and I don't think you meant to but..." I started. "I got tensed every time and so they thought you were harassing me so I had to tell them so they would calm down."

"So both Jaz and Renée know?" He asked.

"Yeah."

"You still want us to be a secret?" He asked.

"Not for much longer just-"

"It's okay, I'm just asking." He told me in a soft voice and I nodded.

"Alright." I said with a small smile.

"And if I don't see you at the party, you'll come over tonight, right?" He asked coming over to me wrapping his arms around my waist.

"You can count on it." I told him pecking his cheek.

"Good." He whispered ten pecked my lips. "I'll see you then." He kissed me once more then let go so I could leave to my dressing room.

When I got to my dressing room I quickly changed from my costume, and got into a decent dress for the party. Fixed my make up, my hair, and soon enough I was out the door and heading to the party.

I got a ride with Jasmine and Anthony who decided to announce their 'new' relationship to the world tonight.

When we got there, there was a lot of press already there. Most of them asking about why the hell Lin wasn't there. Thankfully Lac was there and was able to explain why wasn't there while also not giving away anything about his personal life.

I personally was in awe of how He cold do this, after his explanation then most of the press calmed down and asked other questions. Ones that I could answer about rehearsal and the characters and how we feel about different relationships in the musical.

Once we got through the press and all the pictures being taken, we all went inside and the party began.

The whole event was extremely fun, filled with music, dancing and Some drinking and food.  But as fun as it was is wasn't as much fun as it could have been with Lin gone.

So after a couple hours I decided that she would go home, I was hoping me and Lin would be able to cuddle up together and watch a film before going to sleep.

"Hey, Jaz." I said tapping her shoulder. "I'm going to head home." I told her as zags turned around.

"Oh, really?" She asked with a small frown. "Well alright at least let me take you home then."

"No, no Jasmine, I'll get home myself," I told her. "I don't want you to miss any of the party."

"Phillipa It's Fine, Plus I can just drive back it's not that big a deal, alright?"

"Yeah, Okay then." I said with a small smile.

"Good now let's go." Jasmine said and we both made are way out of the venue to her car.

"So you wanna go because of Lin, right?" Jasmine asked once we were in the car.

"What, can't I just want to go home?" I asked as she started up the car and starting to drive to my place. "I mean you're not wrong, but I could want to go home for other reasons."

"Okay, name one."

"...Tobi..." I told her and she laughed.

"Phillipa that's Lins dog."

"Yes, I am very aware of that." I said, "but she's not Lin, so there."

"So your only reasons to go home are Lin and his dog?" She asked.

"Well his bed is really comfortable too." I said with a smile.

"What about your bed?"

"It's alright." I told her with a small shrug. "But-"

"Let me guess it's better with Lin."

"How'd you know?" I asked with a chuckle.

"Wow, you really like him don't you?"

"Yeah, I really do..." I let out a small sigh. "I think I wanna tell people about us, I actually think I'm ready."

"Really, are you sure?"

"Yeah." I nodded. "I really like him and he really like me, and if we're happy together that's all that maters right?"

"Yes, that's all that matters." She told me and I nodded happily as she pulled over next to the building.

"Okay, well I'll go tell him." I said excitedly. "And tomorrow we can go to work as couple!"

"Okay, okay, I'm excited for you too but not so loud in the car." Jasmine said with a laugh.

"Right, right.. well I'll see you tomorrow." I said getting out of the car.

"Bye, see ya tomorrow." She said waving as I shut the door making my way to the building.

I was so extremely excited, everything was right. Me and Lin would go public with our relationship, our Broadway opening was amazing.

When I got to Lins apartment I knocked on the door, standing in front of the door excitedly.

"Go away!" I heard Lin call, which surprised me to say the least.

"Lin, it's me... weren't we going to watch movies and cuddle, and I have some news for you!" I called back, less than a minute later I heard shuffling and I smiled excited to see Lin.

"Phillipa just go home." He told me once he opened the door, his eyes were puffy and red, tears stained his face.

"Lin what, what's wrong? Are you okay?" I asked worriedly reaching out to him.

"Just go." He said pulling back from me.

"But Lin I thought- Well I thought you wanted me here."

"Well I don't, Okay, I want you gone." He said in a harsh tone making me flinch.

"But-"

"God, phillipa can't you think about someone besides yourself?!" He asked loudly. "You're so selfish, you're selfish in our relationship, i rags what you can call it, you're selfish when we were on our trip, and being incredibly selfish now!" He yelled.

"I-I'm sorry..." I whispered looking down trying to hide the tears welling up in my eyes. "I'll leave you alone..." I whispered choking back sobs as I turned around and left.

He had never in my life spoke to me like that. I hated every second of whatever that was and what made worse I was so confused on why he was spoke to me like that.

Once I was in my apartment I leaned against the door slowly sliding down to the floor, pulling my knees to my chest as hot tears continued to fall fast down my face.

"I'm so selfish..." I whispered to myself. I knew it had to be true, Lin wouldn't say something like that if weren't, I was horrible person, which meant I wouldn't be able to help Lin, I wasn't good enough for him anyways.
