The whole week Travis avoided Maddie and Angie. He couldn't face either of them. This was difficult. Maddie and Travis went to school together and worked together. Angie also went to the same school and hung out at the hotel sometimes. He was surrounded.

"Hey Travis." Travis turned around to see Angie.

"Hey Angie." Travis said. Angie kissed him which made him feel guiltier than ever.

"You've been avoiding me lately. What's wrong?"

"Nothing. What could be wrong?" Travis said. His tone sounded weird to Angie.

"I don't know, but you've been acting weird."

"OK. It's the Chad thing that your mom mentioned." Travis lied.

"Chad? That's it."

"Yeah. I mean what happened?"

"I invited him over and when I fell asleep he stole from me and my mom. Alright?"

"Alright." Travis said turning around.

"So are you ready for the competition?"

"Yeah. The guys and Max are doing well. I think we can win."

"Good. I'll be there." Angie said. Angie's phone rang and she read the text that appeared on the screen. "Ooh. I gotta go. But, I'll see you later."

"Alright. Bye." Travis said.

"Bye." Angie said as she walked off. Travis sighed. He was relieved that she was leaving. In a minute, he'd be heading upstairs to his suite and by the time he was upstairs, Maddie would be on her shift. It was the perfect plan. At least until Maddie walked in. She was early.

"Hey Travis." Maddie said as Travis headed to the elevator. Travis groaned silently, then he turned to Maddie.

"Maddie! Hey. I didn't see you come in." Travis lied.

"So, what's up?" Maddie asked. She didn't make eye contact with him.

"Nothing. You?" Travis said scratching the back of his head.

"Nothing." Maddie answered. They felt awkward about being together.

"Well, I've got homework I need to attend to." Travis said.

"Yeah, I should get to work." Maddie said. Travis walked into the elevator and Maddie walked to the candy counter.

"OK." Travis exhaled. He was so nervous. It was time. They were up for the dance contest. "You guys ready?"

"Yeah." Zack said.

"Definitely." Cody said.

"I was born for this." Max said with pride.

"Really? Because, I'm really nervous right now." Travis put emphasis on really.

"Just chill out. Everything will be fine." Max said.

"Yeah. We got your back." Zack said.

"No matter how badly you mess up." Cody said.

"Thanks. I think. OK. Max and Zack, get to your posts."

"Aye aye cap'n." Zack said. Zack and Max ran across the stage.

"Now. Welcome our last team. Max, Zack, Cody, and Travis." Travis overheard the announcer say. The crowd applauded. It was now or never. 'Let Me Love You' started to play and Travis danced onto the stage and stopped in his position. Max, from the other side of the stage, popped and locked until she was in front of Travis. Cody then did the same from behind Travis and stopped next to him. Then Zack copied and stopped in front of Cody. That was only the first twenty seconds though. Everything had gone according to plan. Then, the sound of a needle scratching a vinyl disc was heard. Travis smiled. Perfect. The remix of the aforementioned song came on. The four started their routine of turns, flips, handstands, and more.

Everything Travis had worried about floated out of his mind. Then, he saw Maddie and Angie walk in. Together! He didn't falter, though. He kept his mind on dancing for the remaining minute and twenty-eight seconds. When he and the others stopped dancing, the audience gave a thunderous applause. They walked off stage. Travis was relieved it was over. Now, he had to deal with Angie and Maddie.

"The finalists are Hanna, Billy, and Fred. Jenna, Carl, Ari, and Jake. And last, but not least, Travis, Zack, Max, and Cody." The three teams ran on stage. Travis was the only one working with thirteen year-olds. The youngest on the other teams had to be a minimum of fifteen. "We'll see you next week to find out who the winner is."

"Way to go guys. We did excellent." Travis said giving each of the thirteen year-olds a high five. "Listen. We'll celebrate tonight. My suite, at six."

"Sweet!" the twins said. They and Max then ran over to Maddie. Travis stood up and walked off.

"Hey champ." called a voice from behind. Travis knew it as Angie's.

"Hey Angie." Travis said as he turned around.

"You did great."

"Thanks."

"Listen. I've been meaning to talk to you."

"About?" Travis asked.

"I think, maybe, we should break up." Angie said sadly.

"Really?" Travis asked.

"Yeah. I mean, you've been distracted a lot lately. So… I just thought-"

"It's OK. I understand. We're still friends though? Right?" Travis actually was going to break up with her that day. Maybe it was better that she broke up with him. Less drama.

"Of course we're still friends. You're the first person who befriended me." Angie said. Angie hugged Travis. He was glad they were still friends. She was a cool person.

"Cool. So, party at my suite. Tonight at six. Be there." Travis said after their hug.

"I will. Catch ya on the flip side."

"You are so lame." Travis laughed.

"I knew you'd say that. See ya later."

"Bye." Angie walked away leaving Travis laughing.

"I'm confused. Didn't she just break up with you?" Maddie said as she walked up to Travis.

"Yeah. We were just joking around though."

"Only people like you would be able to joke about that." Maddie said.

"Yeah. I guess that's just the kind of people we are. But I'm sort of glad we broke up."

"Why? Most guys would be down on their knees begging."

"Because I've been wanting to do this." Travis pulled Maddie closer to him and kissed her. Something he'd been waiting to do for a long time. "Maddie, will you be my girlfriend?"

"What is this? A proposal?" Maddie asked.

"Just answer my question." Travis said.

"Yes. I'll be your girlfriend."
