Lara

I’m exhausted and moody at morning rehearsal. I spent the night searching for an answer, a way out, and the few times I managed to sleep, a green-eyed fox chased me through my nightmares.

I haven’t seen Mark since last night before the show. He looked like he stepped out of a men’s fashion magazine. Tall and slim, with his light brown hair falling in perfect waves and a shadow on his cheeks, he made my knees weak. He also frightened me. He looked like he had one foot out the door of this place, and it made me realize how much I’ve started dreaming he could save us, believing his dream. I can’t do that.

Tanya is falling apart. She’s late and moody, and her poses are sloppy. Tension hovers over rehearsal like the heavy velvet curtains lining the stage. Gavin lurks in the house silently watching our rehearsals and making Roland impatient and cross.

He’s at the piano writing notes on sheet music and as I approach, he glances up at me and smiles before looking down again. “Last week I was worried you were angry with me,” he says as he writes. “When in reality, you’ve simply found someone new.”

“It’s not like that,” I say.

“Certainly looked like that yesterday.” He gives me a wink. “Lara’s in love.”

I push back. “I can’t think about that now.”

“Come on, Lara. It’s your old pal Roland.”

Vanessa’s loud laugh pierces the air, and I cringe. I decide to put it out there, see how much he knows. How much he’ll tell me.

“Who is Guy?”

His body stiffens, eyes narrow. “What?”

His sudden change in demeanor tells me more than his words ever could. “Molly met him after the show a while back, and—”

“Keep her away from him.”

“Who is he?”

“Gavin’s brother.”

I shake my head. “But why have I never seen him? How could I not know Gavin had a brother?”

“He went away a while back. I don’t know why he’s here now, but it’s the reason I told you to be careful. Stay away from him. Keep Molly away from him.”

“If he’s Gavin’s brother, that means—” I try to piece together this new information, understand how it relates to the show, to us.

Roland grips my arm so hard I wince. “Do what I say,” he growls.

I bend my elbow and push his hand away. “Don’t treat me like that. Tell me why.”

He exhales and releases me, but the anger is still there. I watch him circle the piano and start to play what he’s just written. “I’m not going to repeat stories about Gavin’s brother.”

“Okay…” Time to push. “We had a visitor last night.”

His hands pause over the keys, and his eyes cut to mine. “Guy?”

I nod. “It doesn’t seem to matter what we do. The theater isn’t that big.”

“What did he say?”

“That he knew me, that he’s been watching me. That he’ll be back and Molly and I should get some sleep in the meantime.” I circle the instrument to sit beside him, lowering my voice. “What do I do?”

His lips press together.
