Disclaimer: totes fiction! I don't own the boys, just the story. None of this happened in real life (that I know of)!
Summary: Things starts looking a little brighter...
A/N: This verse is getting longer and longer... this is part 10 (in case anybody was curious) and, believe me, I'm not even at half yet. Already writing on the next one and will post it as soon as it's done.
You can find the previous parts in my masterlist
“Oh my god! Are you serious?”
Adam knew he was grinning like an idiot at the moment but he could not help himself. It took all his willpower to keep from flailing.
“Yes. You’ve got an amazing voice, dear.” Paula smiled nearly as big. “I’m sure you will become a big star in the future.”
There were actual tears in his eyes. Adam could hardly believe it was true and all the kind words were almost too much for him to handle. He was practically shaking by excitement and happiness and he really needed to share this with someone.
“Thank you! Thank you so, so much. Oh my god. I can’t believe I got it!”

Kris turned the peg for the G-string slightly and then picked the string a couple of times while humming along. Yeah, that sounds better… Having played for several years had made him pretty good at hearing if a string was tuned right or not. It was great being able to tune his guitar after his own ear but, at the same time, it could be a total curse. Like the time the school orchestra in his old school had performed and one of the guitars had been out of tune. Every time the boy had picked the strings Kris had cringed. After that event he had made a promise to himself to never let his own guitar get out of tune.
The door was suddenly thrown open, sending some papers - which were due yesterday - flying off the desk. Kris raised his eyebrows as Adam literally jumped onto the bed, a giant grin covering his face.
“I got it!” Adam was basically squealing in excitement and Kris thought Adam was going to crush his guitar as he hugged him. “I got the part!”
“You got the lead?” Carefully placing his guitar on the floor instead - hopefully on a safe distant from his overexcited friend - Kris grinned and gave Adam another hug. “That’s awesome! Congratulations!”
Adam shook his head, still unable to believe it was true.
“I did so not think I would get it. Not the role of Danny. I mean, they never give the lead to a newbie.”
“I told you you’d get it.”
“How can you be so sure?”
At that Kris raised one eyebrow because, seriously? He had to be kidding.
“Dude, have you heard yourself sing? Now it’s the lead in the school play and next time it’s the lead singer for Queen, I’m telling you.”
“Yeah, right.” Adam laughed. Like that would ever happen. “But can you imagine? Me as Danny Zuko.”
“Just remember it’s the girl you’re supposed to kiss.”
Still laughing Adam stuck his tongue out at his friend and roommate.
“Fuck you.”
“Sorry, I’m not in the play.” Kris winked.
“I’m sure you’d make a great Sandy.” Adam teased back.
Sighing as he lay down on the bed, Adam shifted around so he could put his head in Kris’ lap. A content smile played over his face. This year was turning out better than he would have dared to imagine. He had made friends, joined the drama club and even got the lead in the upcoming musical. Looking up and meeting a pair of brown eyes he felt a flutter in his chest. He was sharing a room with the cutest guy in school. Not even Gokey could fuck up his happy mood at that moment.
Kris raised his eyebrows, seeing his friend smile up at him.
“What?”
“Nothing.” Adam took a deep breath and then let it out slowly. “Just thinking about how cute you are.”
Chuckling Kris placed a hand on Adam’s shoulder, squeezing lightly.
“Yeah, I’m still not trying out for Sandy.”
