A/N: Hey, guys! I'm back! Sorry it took so long! I've been kinda busy, but I managed it! Enjoy!
Talent Show
Kori's POV:
The past two weeks we have been doing the practicing for the show of talent tonight. Robin and I have it perfected and I am most excited for tonight. The other dance routine is most fun as well! It is quite hard, but we all have gotten through it and are going to do the blowing away of the crowd.
I believe Robin and I have become the closer during our two weeks working on the waltz of Viennese together for the show of talent. He holds my hand when we are not practicing the dances and he does the staring of me many times a day.
Yay! Today Rose is giving us our costumes after school! I cannot wait to see it! Oh! Robin is here!
I ran out to the car, with my phone and backpack, of course, and climbed into the seat of passenger.
"Good morning, Kori. Are you ready for the talent show tonight?" he asked.
I smiled at him. "A good morning to you as well, Robin. And yes, I am most excited for the show of talent. I have brought my shoes of the room of ball with me. They are in my backpack."
The talent show is right after school. We have a half of an hour to be ready.
"Good. I have mine and the music." Robin answered as we drove to the school.
We conversed lightly for a while, and then there was a comfortable silence between us.
"Kori?" Robin asked.
"Yes?"
"Um… I was wondering if you would maybe…go out with me."
I looked up at him. He was looking away from me, his face a light red color. I smiled and touched his arm to get his attention. He turned to look at me.
"I would be most happy to be your girlfriend."
"Really? That's great." He said, relaxing now.
~Lunch~
Jinx, Roy, Jade, Garth, Argent and I went to lunch. When we sat in our usual seats, there was already food for us. Robin kept looking over and catching my eye from his seat next to Gar. We exchanged smiles. This did not go unnoticed by Rosealyn.
"What was that?" she asked.
"What was what?" I responded.
"That look you keep giving each other."
Everyone at the table looked at us.
"Are you two dating?" Rose asked. I just nodded, blushing. She squealed.
"I am so happy for you guys! I just knew it would happen soon!" Rose gushed, hugging me tightly. I hugged her back. We got lots of congrats from our friends and we were happy, but a little embarrassed.
Then I felt a sharp tug on my hair. I let out a yelp and turned in my seat to face… Kathryn. She smirked at me and said, "Are you ready to get your asses whooped tonight? Because you don't stand even the slightest chance to win against me."
She smirked at all of us. "See ya, losers." Kathryn turned on her heel and walked away.
I scowled, running my hand over my head where she pulled my hair. "I really hate her. And I normally don't hate anyone."
"There is no way she is going to win with all of us competing against her." Terra said.
"You said it, Terra. That bitch is going down!" Jinx said.
~After School~
I ran to our group of friends in the lobby after school. When I reached them, Rose looked up and smiled, spotting me.
"There you are, Kori! Here're your dresses." She said, handing me two dress bags. "Now let's all go get changed. Ladies…to the girls' dressing room!"
We followed her backstage to the girls' dressing room. I opened the first bag and gasped at what I saw. It was the most beautiful dress ever. Best of all, it was baby pink. (A/N: Okay, I can't possibly describe what everyone's dresses look like, but I posted all of the routines on my profile down at the bottom. They are the exact same costumes, just some are different colors.)
My other costume was much shorter. This was the one that I would be wearing first, for the Samba/Hip Hop routine.
Everyone gathered together backstage. When Robin saw me, his eyes bugged out a little. I giggled. When I reached him, I spun in a circle.
"You like?" I asked, my hands on my hips, one hip jutting out, just to tease him a little. He couldn't say anything so he just nodded. I giggled again.
Mrs. Roth walked out onto the stage. "Good afternoon everyone. Welcome to this years talent show. Once again, the judges will be voting for the winner. The judges are Monsieur Mallah, Mrs. De Mille, and Mr. Richards. Good luck everyone."
The student body president, Caroline Hart came out onto the stage as Mrs. Roth exited it.
"First, please give a round of applause for Rubie and the Rubettes." She announced.
Rubie walked toward us. "Watch… and learn, losers." She said.
"Okay!" I said excitedly. Everyone looked at me confused. I ignored them and continued. My pleasant smile disappeared. "Show us what NOT to do."
I smirked. Rubie, Angel and Kathryn just glared at me as they went onto the stage.
Once they were gone, our whole group burst into laughter.
"Girl, that was awesome!" Bumblebee said between fits of laughter. I smiled.
"Why, thank you."
Then the music started up. We all turned our attention to the stage.
(A/N: Now would be the time to see Rubie's routine.)
Caroline walked back out as the curtains closed. We ran out and set up our props. Once they were in order and everything was ready we got into position.
"Next, please welcome…the Teen Titans." Caroline said as the curtain opened.
(A/N: Couldn't think of a better name for them. Anyway, now would be the time to watch their routine)
The crowd erupted into applause. We even got a standing ovation. The curtain closed and we all ran to change while a few more groups went.
Terra and Garth were the first of us to go. (A/N: Go to my profile to see Terra and Garth's)
Then Jinx and Wally went. (A/N: Ditto for Jinx and Kid Flash.)
After Jinx and Wally, Argent and Isaiah went.
Then Kole and Joseph, Cyborg and Bumblebee, Rose and Dimitri, then Rae and Gar, Roy and Jade following, and Robin and I went last.
We were the last people in the show to go. Mrs. Roth came out again.
"Alright. Sit tight for a bit please until the judges make their choice."
Ten minutes later, Caroline came back out with an envelope in hand. "Can I have all of the competitors on the stage, please?"
Everyone filed out on the stage.
"I am proud to announce that this year's winner is…"
A/N: Ooh, cliff hanger. I know, you probably know who's gonna win, but, who cares? Let me know what you think. Oh! And let me know which of all of the routines was your favorite. I'm curious. I chose a whole bunch of SYTYCD routines that were my favorites, so let me know which was yours. Thank you lots!
