Prologue
Lady Luck And The Audition
A large group of people walked out the double doors of the dance studio, which held auditions for the American Ballet Academy. Among them was a teenage girl, about eighteen years old, with red - almost auburn hair - pulled up neatly into a bun. Her bangs hung around the side of her face, a little past her eyes.
"Well? Hailey did you get in?" an impatient brunette girl questioned her best friend.
Hailey stood there with a small grin on her face. She knew Erin was as anxious as she had been while she waited to see if she made it into the Academy. The suspense was agonizing for Erin, as the eager expression on her face displayed, who wanted to know what went on behind the closed doors.
"Yes I did!" Hailey squealed with excitement as she embraced her best friend in a hug,
"Oh my God!!! You got IN!!! Good for you!" Erin exclaimed, congratulating her friend. She noticed Hailey's mom, whom promised to be here for her daughter, was no where to be seen. "Where's your mom? Didn't she come?"
"No, she's at home sleeping because they called her in for work on her night off," Hailey told her, with a hint of anger in he voice. "Oh well. Like I care," she said, pretending it didn't hurt her.
Erin, being the good friend, didn't push Hailey into talking about a sensitive subject, so she switched to another, more innocent subject. "So when do you leave for New York?"
Hailey looked at Erin with sadness in her eyes, "I leave for New York in a week."
"Well a weeks better than tomorrow," Erin said trying to sound happy, but was dying inside. Her best friend in the world was moving to New York. "Hey we only live in Pennsylvania. I'll come visit you on weekends."
