Hey guys! This is my first Step Up 2 fan fic and I couldn't be more excited xD LOL I came up with this idea after watching the movie and I noticed a little detail that I decided to focus on.;) Enjoy! (and yes, this will be an AndieChase and Moose/Sophie fic)
Disclaimer: I do not own Step Up 2.
It was a blur. A complete and total blur. The events of the night before just seemed to be a faded memory that seemed more distant than it was, like she was falsely reliving the tainted memories of someone else. She tried to relax but the more she thought about it the more she tensed up.
She laid back down on her bad, trying to at least sleep it off.
"Someone's in a good mood."
Andie spotted Sarah waiting for her in the living room smiling smugly at the goofy grin she wasn't even aware she had.
"It's been a while since I've seen that smile of yours, you're mother was quite fond of it you know." Sarah said as she turned on the hallway light with a hint of concern flashing across her face. "Goodness child, did you walk home in the rain?"
Andie smirked as she tried to wring out the water from her hair. "Not exactly."
"I don't think I even want to know." Sarah walked off and reappeared a few moments later with a dry towel. "Here, you're going to catch a cold."
"Thanks." Andie took the towel and started drying herself off.
"So I'm guessing things went well at that competition of yours." Sarah said.
"Yeah." Andie smiled. "It was so awesome Sarah, just like before when I used to watch them."
"Glad to hear it." Sarah yawned.
"You didn't have to wait for me you know." Andie said to her clearly exhausted guardian.
"I wanted to." Sarah reassured her. "You know, your mother would have been so proud of you, Andie."
Andie flashed her a small smile. She wasn't used to getting along with Sarah but then again things are starting to get better for her.
"Now go change into something dry and get some rest." Andie simply nodded and started walking off. "I'll help you finish pack in the morning."
Andie stopped at the foot of the stairs abruptly as she turned towards Sarah, clearly horrified by her last sentence. "What?"
"Your aunt called." Sarah explained. "She's expecting you by the end of the week."
Andie stood there seemingly frozen to the ground, her face full of shock. She opened her mouth yet words couldn't seem to come out of them.
"And all that paperwork." Sarah shook her head uncomfortably. "You know how cynical those lawyers can be."
"I-I-you-but-" Andie stuttered. "You're sending me to Texas?" she asked shakily.
Sarah's eyebrows furrowed. "Yeah, we already talked about this remember?"
"Yeah, but I can't leave now!" Andie protested. "And you can't make me!"
"Andie we've already discussed this and your aunt and uncle have already-"
"You said that you saw a change in me." Andie shakily. "You said that it would be what my mom would've wanted!"
"Sweetie, I was talking about the Streets, not Texas." Sarah said softly to the obviously upset teenager.
"But-"
"I'm sorry Andie." Sarah lowered her head so she didn't have to see Andie's sullen face.
Andie stared at her guardian in both disbelief and disappointment. This wasn't happening. She felt her eyes slowly welling up with tears. This cannot be happening.
"I can't believe you would do this to me."
Sarah opened her mouth to say something but Andie had already rushed upstairs and slammed her bedroom door. Sarah ran her hand through her hair, sighing heavily.
This cannot possibly be happening.
Her train of thought was soon interrupted by her phone ringing. She glanced at the screen, it was Missy. She hesitated for a moment, feeling the sickness of her stomach rise again and her anxiety and worry resurface.
"Hello?"
"Andie!" Missy greeted excitedly. "How you doin'?"
"Fine." Andie said flatly.
"That doesn't sound fine." Missy retorted. "Everything okay, D?"
"Y-Yeah, just tired from last night I guess." Andie assured her. "I have a huge headache too."
"I know what you mean, girl. Last night was crazy!" Missy gushed on. "You were right, those tight-wearin' ballerinas can bring it."
"Yeah, last night was really great…" Andie muttered. "Too bad it had to end so soon."
"What do you mean girl?" Missy said. "You're starting to sound like it's all over, it ain't over."
Andie sighed, if only Missy knew. "D? You still there?"
"Yeah, yeah still here." Andie said.
"You wanna hang out at my place? The crew is coming over to celebrate."
"I'll try to get through with Sarah."
"Well you better get your ass over here soon." Andie could hear faint voices in the background. "Cause the crew's got their party on!" she heard cheers in the background.
Andie couldn't help but laugh lightly despite her anxious state. "Alright I'll try."
"You better. Besides-" Missy lowered her voice so no one else could hear. "-Chase has been looking for you."
Andie's eyes widened. "Wh-" Missy hung up before she could even ask her any further questions. "Damn it."
Andie sighed and placed her phone on her side table, closing her eyes once more. It was still so unclear.
It seemed so clear last night. Finally, she belonged. And just as quickly as it came, it was stolen from her. What the hell was she supposed to tell Director Collins? Missy? The crew? Chase?
She sighed. Chase. She didn't even know if she had the guts to look at him and pretend that everything was okay. Hell, she knew that she couldn't do that with anyone with the state of mind she had right now.
She felt her cheeks heat up as fresh tears welled up on the corners of her eyes. Great, now not only was she empty, she was weak as well. She quickly wiped her tears and got off the bed, seeing as it was no use trying to sleep it off.
She had to tell them, the sooner the better. But she had no idea how the hell she was going to do it.
Okay, I know it's kind of short but the next ones will be longer xD Hope you guys like the first chapter, I'm actually thinking about making a sequel for this but it's definitely going to be a future fic ;) tell me what you guys think! (which translates to: please review! LOL)
