《Senior Year》Ushering
Advertisement
Another week of school has gone by. You have decided that you're gonna sign up to usher for the Game of Tiaras performances. Even though you're not in the show anymore, you still want to support them. You confirmed the signup. It's done, there's no going back.
~~~~~~~~~~
Tonight is the first show. You finished all of your homework and already had a shower. You put on a pink, dressy shirt, khaki pants, and brown boots. You straighten your hair, then put on your class ring and your courage bracelet. After getting ready, you drove to school. You parked in the front parking lot and walked to the auditorium. Your theatre arts teacher was by the ticket table.
You took a deep breath and walked over. Let the games begin!
Surprisingly, she was calm. You thought that she was gonna say something negative to you, but no. She gave you an usher badge, some programs, and positioned you at the right hand door. After she left, you quickly pulled out your phone. You texted Gwen to tell her that you're ushering. She didn't text back because she must be getting ready. You put your phone back in your pocket. The minutes passed and more ushers started to come.
People started to show up to see the show. You handed the programs out to each party and another usher showed them to their seats in the auditorium. After thirty minutes, it was time for the show to start. You put the programs in a basket and you went into the auditorium. You closed the door and sat down in the last row with the other ushers. You guys are seating in the very back so that you guys can get back to your positions.
The tech team played the auditorium rules video, then your teacher introduced the play through a microphone. Once she finished, the Game of Thrones theme started to play. As it played, you thought of Thomas, Nathalie, and Aidan. Tears started to develop in your eyes. You should be up on that stage with your cast members, but your teacher ruined it for you and the cast. In your mind, you declared that you are NOT trying out for any other shows this year. If you're the problem, then you'll be the solution.

You knocked yourself out of your thoughts. The curtain opened and there was a beautiful set that the crew had made. The girls that played Cinderella, Ellie (copyrighted character for Elsa), and Belle came out onstage. You smiled when you saw Gwen as Belle. There was one thing you noticed. The girl that was your Snow White replacement had the script in her hand and was reading right from it. You snickered and shook your head by how ridiculous that looks onstage.
'That's best that she could do.' you thought.
She really needs start to thinking things through before she makes assumptions about anything that will hurt her plays or the cast members.
When it was time for intermission, you and the other ushers got back in your positions. You saw a little table by the concussions. It was selling flowers and candy. You paid two dollars for a flower for Gwen and a Hershey's chocolate bar for Alex. They also had the option to write a little note and a crew member will deliver it to them backstage. You wrote them notes and a crew member took them backstage. Intermission was over and it was time for the second act.
Everything repeated for the other three performances.

How is he supposed to protect his friends when he's in constant danger himself?
