Exit Stage Left 5/?
By: Fele414
Hi everyone, I just wanted to say thanks again for
all the positive reviews and sorry that this took a few days to add a new
chapter, unfortunately this chapter will be extremely short, 'cause I got to
run off to work. Keep the reviews coming,
I love 'em.
Almost 2 weeks later…
"And one and two and three and four," the coordinator directed, "good Jodi, excellent Charlie." It hadn't been Jodi's idea to pair up with Charlie, but Jack Bouvier one of San Francisco's leading choreographers, who by the way, had been sitting in class all day watching her with an uneasy glare. But Bouvier wasn't the only audience the two had. On the other side of the room was an envious Katie watched with hatred as Charlie lifted Jodi gracefully into the air. Until she had arrived her and Charlie had been partners and on their way to being the Ballet's top dance partners, but with the way things were looking, that was all over now. She was not going to let Jodi get away with this.
The coordinator stopped clapping, "that was great everyone, okay that's a wrap. See you tomorrow, same bat channel, same bat time." "You were really good today Jodi, being in Cooper's ballet really improved your technique," Charlie told her. "Thanks, but it's not just me. Charlie I could never dance so well without a partner like you," "ah c'mon, I think you give me more credit than I deserve."
"Nevertheless, you two flow together." Jodi and Charlie looked over at Jack Bouvier who had been observing the two all day. "Fitting each other and complimenting one another like to pieces of a puzzle coming together. You might have noticed I've been watching you two today, but the truth is I've been watching you for quite some time. Anyways, let me get to the point. I'm choreographing and producing a play for the company and I want you two to be it's stars. It's going to be a huge budget, I'm getting free reign." He grabbed Jodi's hands and lovingly stroked them, "my dear you would be so lovely, please tell me you'll be in my ballet." Jodi looked at Charlie then back at Jack, "okay I'll do it. As long as Charlie agrees too." Jodi gave him a pleaing looking, "now how can I refuse a look like that? Yeah, I'll do it." "Oh that's great, but we must start rehearsal right away, we have less than a month. I'll see you tomorrow at 10," and with that Mr. Bouvier scurried off.
Katie walked up with a puzzled look on her face, "what was up with that, what did Bouvier want?" "He wants me and Charlie to be in his new ballet." "The new ballet that everyone is talking about? He wants you two to be in it? But you've only been here like 3 weeks, I have seniority." "Well I guess he thought Jodi would better suite the part," "well what's it about?" "I don't know," Jodi answered, "I'll guess we'll find out tomorrow at rehearsal."
