Clary POV
It was a normal first day in College, I kept to myself, and saw Jon and the others on the breaks between classes and lunch, but I kept my double major to myself. The guys only knew I was doing business, not Music to, and that was how I wanted to keep it.
It was our last class and we all agreed to meet and hang out after, so when the last bell rang out Jon and I walked out to the car and waited for the others. Once they arrived we all headed to the mall to hang out at a place called the groovy smoothie. We were there for about an hour or so when I got a phone call.
"Shit" I muttered. "Excuse me guys" I walked away to answer the call.
"What's up?" I ask.
"Where are you? We were meant to be at dance rehearsals half an hour ago!" he snapped.
"Shit I completely forgot, I'm on my way tell everyone to warm up" I hung up the phone and ran over to Jon.
"Jon you have to drive me to Re-" I almost slipped up. "To Mia's now" I told him.
"What's the big rush Sis?" He asked.
"I'm half an hour late, you know what Seb is like" I try to chuckle and i whisper in Jon's ear.
"If I don't get there fast he'll drop the deal" Jon jumps up.
"Right guys we'll see you tomorrow" and with that we leave.
? POV
The music pumped through the speakers as we dance to the pre-recorded track...
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
Tell myself it's time now, gotta let go
"Come On Red! Its step step clap spin, it's not that complex" Mia called.
"I know, I know I'm sorry" I sigh.
"Again from the top and this time sing" Sebastian calls from the seats.
"MIC" I call as I walk side stage to get my head piece fitted. I adjust my mask (Yes I even wear it in practice) as the head piece goes on. The lights go down and I walk upstage center to the top of the steps and the music starts, a few beats in and I begin to sin
Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street
Faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly
Loving him is like trying to change your mind once you're already flying through the free fall
Like the colors in autumn, so bright just before they lose it all
Losing him was blue like I'd never known
I turn and walk down the stairs slowly and down stage center.
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Loving him was red
Touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you
Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out that love could be that strong
The dancers that were positioned in a pose broke into a dance alongside me; it consisted of simple turns and lifts nothing to major.
Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Oh, red
Burning red
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
Tell myself it's time now, gotta let go
But moving on from him is impossible
When I still see it all in my head
We keep dancing and i keep singing and I know I'm getting it right. I'll be well prepared for this competition.
In burning red
Burning, it was red
Oh, losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
'Cause loving him was red
Yeah, yeah, red
We're burning red
The big lift, where two of the guys, Darren and Toby lift me onto their shoulders with Wane supporting me from the back.
And that's why he's spinnin' 'round in my head
Comes back to me, burning red
Yeah, yeah
His love was like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street
The track ends and we all walk down stage in a line waiting for Sebastian and Mia's feedback. Seb doesn't say anything for a while, he then out of know where, stands up and walks towards us clapping with a huge smile on his face.
"That Red was amazing, we have a real star on our hands" he smiles and hugs me. I smile and hug him back.
"that's a rap kid" Sebastian's voice rang through my head phones.
"I wasn't really feeling it that time Seb, can we go again?" I ask from the booth. Sebastian smiled and came into the sound booth to me.
"Red, you nailed it, stop doubting yourself kid, you're awesome" he smiles at me putting his hands on my shoulders.
"You think so?" I ask.
"Babe you're gonna be hotter than Demi Lovato" he tells me kissing my cheek. "Come on its late let's get you home" he smiles his billion dollar smile at me. I nod knowing better than to argue, when Seb says you're finished for the day; you're finished for the day. Boy how am I going to keep up this double life? I think as Seb leads me to his car. This is gonna be fun.
