Tonight was the big night. She would officially make her Hogwarts acting debut here and now. She fiddled with the edges of her costume, trying to keep her mind off things and focus on the moment. As she moved her fingertips across her costume, she mouthed her lines and mentally prepared herself for the show. She would no longer be Lisa, she was one of the lost boys. She was Tootles!! Well almost Tootles.

She wished she was closer to the curtain so she could have peeked around the corner to see if her siblings or some of her friends were there. She glanced around the backstage area and watched as people applied final touches of the make up. Lisa spotted Remy and of course had to make her way over. As she did, she waved to her fellow actors and wished, “Break a leg!” so that she wouldn’t say good luck and cause disaster to strike.

“Ready Freddy, Remy?” she asked her friend as she wiggled her eyebrows, trying to ignore the ball of nerves in her tummy. She spotted Apollo a ways away and waved to him.
