"They're like friendship necklaces, but, not like friendship necklaces, what do you think?"

"I absolutely love them, and I absolutely love you!" 

(Continued)

"Anyways, thank you so much, these are amazing, you're a great gift giver!! I did not forget about you, I got you a present too!" I hopped up and grabbed an envelope with a pink ribbon tied around it and handed it to him, sitting back down, he opened the envelope and pulled the first thing out, which was a card. In it I wrote about how great and supportive he was, and how much I loved what he had done for me. 

"Thank you! This is super sweet."

"Wait, wait. There's more! Look inside the envelope!" When I said that he pulled out a single Hamilton ticket. 

"SWEET!" He yelled. "Oh my gosh finally! How did you get this? Seriously?"

"They always have a few tickets on retainer just in case, you know, Joel Gray shows up or something, that ticket is for Tuesday. I'll be working, just in case you want to buy some merchandise! I will be there! I will not be seeing the show with you however, I do have things to do, and I kind of feel bad about seeing it twice, most people can't even get a singular ticket, so..." I trailed off.

"Well, this is a super fantastic gift, thank you so much, you're the best!" He hugged me from behind. "So... What did you get from the cast?"

"How did you know that they got me anything?"

"I saw the mass of wrapping paper you left on the stage."

"Oh, that kind of was a dead giveaway. So, um... I got lots of playbills. I'm pretty sure the coordinated their gifts so I would have ALL of the show merchandise. Not quite sure though. Daveed got me Wicked tickets, and a backstage pass! Apparently I am now a VIP."

"Well congratulations, but I am also backstage at a Broadway show, so, it must not be that hard to get a backstage pass."

"Excuse you!" I yelled shoving him laughing. "You're only backstage because of me!"

"I know, I know! I surrender! I surrender!"

William and I hung out for the rest of the day, he left around 6:30 that night, it was the best Christmas I had in a long time.

The cast had 2 days off Christmas and the Saturday after, then, of course, they had a show on Sunday, so on Sunday they began showing back up to work. I heard people coming upstairs at 5:30, most people got here at 6:30 so I assumed they were just early. Until I heard a knock on my door.

"Come in!" The majority of the cast was all gathered around my door. 

"We have another surprise for you!!" Anthony said from the back of the large mass of people.

"You can come into the room, it's ok you'll all fit." They all came into my bedroom and Anthony handed me a giftbag. "Another one? Seriously? You guys did not have to get me Christmas presents, especially really nice ones, you guys are the best!"

"No! We wanted to, open it, it's from all of us!" Groff prompted.

"Alright, I'm not going to pass up on a gift." I pulled tissue paper out and inside the bag was a t-shirt that read 'Property of Hamilton'.

"What do you think? We were just thinking, just in case everyone doesn't already know, let's MAKE them know, you're our kid, or, going to be our kid!!" Renée said.

"This is awesome! Thank you guys so much!! I love it!"

"How did the boyfriend like the ticket?" Oak asked, he was the one who had the idea originally.

"He loved them. He got really excited, he didn't know how I got my hands on them."

"Yeah, and what did he get you? Hmm?" Jasmine was very interested, obviously. 

"A necklace, and he write me a very, very sweet card." I smiled to myself thinking of the journal, I didn't know if I wanted all of them to know I had that, then they would all read it, and I didn't know if I wanted that either. It was the sweetest gift, but it was private, it was him telling me he loved me. That's all I could have wanted. And it was a great gift. 

"That's sweet, keep an open schedule for the day on Tuesday, I have plans, secret plans, but plans no less!" Lin requested.

"Ok, you act as though I make plans often, and talk to people, and socialize, I don't."

"Alrighty then... Well, we should go, you know, we have a show soon, people are going to watch it. And I have a Ham4ham, things to do things to do! Have a nice night!!" They all left. I couldn't believe how lucky I was.
