Author note: hey guys just to remind you. Only Paige's secret has been revealed. You heard me so everything that's happened with Chloe – isn't her secret! Ok same thing goes with this chapter I want 2 reviews please. When I'm getting 15 people reading I should really be getting 5-10 reviews a chapter *cough* *cough*, but we'll work on it.
(Paige POV)
"Paige!" my mother warns, shocked by my outburst. I shrug.
"It's true though." The woman sighs.
"Yes it is true; the medication is only there to help balance positive and negative thoughts. On that note I will rephrase my question. Have you been feeling these big main bad thoughts, as you described them?"
"no." I said it bluntly; I'm not going to lie, but I'm not going to go out of my way to describe my deepest thoughts and feelings. I'll say what I have to no more or less.
"And what about school?"
"What about school?"
"Well, those girls you mentioned last week."
"Oh you mean the bitches I once used to call my friends." Both my mum and the woman look taken back by use of words and my attitude. Can they honestly blame me?
"Yes, those girls."
"Well, they still pretty much hate me for a being a national superstar."
"That's all they hate you for?"
"Well I can't think of any other reason."
"Mmm. Ok." I shrug.
"What about food? Have you been eating?"
"Well I'm feeling hungrier than I used to."
"So you've gained your appetite back."
"Yep, the pills should have done that. You said that they should because lack of hunger comes with depression."
"Yes I know." She sighs. "When are you going to relax with me Paige, I'm only here to help."
"And I don't care. You're not one of my few friends, I'm not close to you, and so as far as I'm concerned I don't have to tell you anything. You've helped me enough by putting me on the meds. Now you've gathered up the information that the pills are working, we're done." I grab my coat, stand up and walk out the door and down the corridor to the car. Mum closely follows.
Right I'm going back to dance, back to Chloe, so I get to calm down now.
(Chloe POV)
(30 minutes earlier)
I walk back into the studio. "Chloe are ready to get to work?" Abby calls, noticing me immediately.
"As ready as ever!" I smile to have it returned.
"Right well if you go stand ..." and I zoned out for the rest of rehearsal, listening and doing as I'm told but not really paying attention to the world around me; that is until Paige walked in.
(Paige POV)
Oh no! What is Abby going to do? I've missed 45 minutes of rehearsal, that's 45 minutes more than acceptable. I push the door open and walk in.
"Paige how lovely for you to join us finally."
I'm not paying attention to Abby; I'm paying attention to Chloe who has returned to dance. I'm not going to risk smiling or waving at her, but she sneaks in a little wave and mouths "hi".
"Right well we will go from the beginning, run it once then I'm doing the trio. Studio 2 is available if anyone wants to rehearse. I forgot to mention but studio 2 is reserved all day for you guys to rehearse, just talk to the receptionist and book the time you want for your number. You can only be running 1 number at a time in there." She looks at me suggesting that I better go and book time for the group number straight after rehearsal. I'll get Chloe to come help me with what I'm meant to be doing; she always learns everyone's parts ready in case. Plus it gives me time to talk to her.
