dance with me
So, I got distracted like I said I would, and I wasn't going to attempt to write anymore. BUT. 3 people followed and 1 person reviewed, so I felt like I had to.
To reviewer 'badebadebade' I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU, and I hate myself for it. I've taken the end out because I hate it. Thanks for your honest opinion:)
I'M SO SORRY ABOUT THE CRAP YOU'RE ABOUT TO READ. But I'm not going to pay any of your medical bills for counselling. Sorry, I have a new phone to save up for.
THIS CHAPTER IS BASICALLY THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER FROM BECK'S POV.
August 22nd
This morning I finally got a call from my agent, after 6 months of nothing I thought I'd finally gotten an audition for a movie or something, and to say I was relieved was an understatement. The team of people I had working for me had disappeared a long time ago, and I had actually had to resort to dating Victoria Vega for fame, and when that happens, you know times are tough. Anyway, I answered the phone when my agent called and, to say I was surprised by the job opportunity that had come around, would be an understatement.
I have been offered to be one of the stars on this seasons 'Dance with Me'…
Stupidly I accepted, because if I don't do this, my career would literally be over.
2 weeks later - September 5th
The Launch Show is at the end of this week, for the past week I've been practicing with dance teachers at the studios, recording promotional material and taken various tests to determine which professional is the right partner for me. I've seen a young girl around the studios, she looks like she's about 22, she has the blackest hair, and the palest skin you've ever seen. She's like a real life Snow White. And I think she's beautiful.
The Launch Show - September 7th
So this is it. I'm currently standing next to the presenter of Dance with Me, Kerry waiting for her to call out my name. My heart is going so fast I'll faint if she doesn't tell me soon. Finally she opens her mouth to speak.
"Beck Oliver. Your dancing partner is…. Jade West!"
I stood there looking up at where the professionals come out of and nothing happened for about 30 seconds. Was there a problem? Was this Jade not happy that she's got me? Is she okay? All the while I've been worrying about the million questions flying around my head, she has made her way to my side.
It was her. The snow white girl. Despite my utter shock I managed to get out a "Hey" and lean forward to hug her. She smells so good. We made our way to be interviewed while they announce the rest of the couples, and after a short chat with Jade, and a musical performance from a band performing their latest single , it was time for the professionals dance aka; my first chance to see Jade dance. And she was amazing, she completely stole the show. Or maybe I just couldn't keep my eyes off her. Either way; I think she's beautiful, and I'm going to have to tell her or I'll explode.
Later that night
I'M SUCH AN ASSHOLE. She's probably currently demanding a different partner. I can't believe I just came out and said it. Who does that?! Apparently me. Even if I did stand a chance with her it's all gone now. And to top it all off, my 'girlfriend' Tori is yelling at me because apparently I was staring at Jade the whole time. I mean I was, but there's no need to make a big deal out of it, especially when our relationship is completely fake.
I'm going to get some sleep now. Lots of rehearsing tomorrow.
The Next Day - September 8th
I had literally been up 2 minutes when Tori started yelling at me. That girl honestly. She needs to get her priorities right. When she went to the bathroom I took my chance, got dressed super quick and got the hell out of there. I was going to be really early for rehearsals with Jade and look like a total loser, but at least I didn't have to put up with Tori's screeching.
I had been sat in the rehearsal room for about 20 minutes when Jade walked in. She looked even prettier with no makeup on, and I'm sure I stared at her for about 30 seconds before either of us said anything.
"Am I late?" She asked and began to pull her phone out. Presumably to check the time.
"No, I'm early," I answered.
"Bit eager?" She asked, with one eyebrow raised.
"Not that. Couldn't wait to get out of my house."
"Why?" She asked, and joined me on the floor. Weird, she seemed genuinely concerned.
"My girlfriend is driving me crazy". Usually I would have just avoided the subject, but there was something about this girl that made me want her to know. Something I'd never felt before.
As soon as I said that I swear I saw a flicker of disappointment in her eyes. I could've imagined it, it was only there for a fraction of a second after all.
"Oh. Do you.. want to talk about it?" She asked, she seemed wary and a bit hesitant , but I told her anyway.
We talked for a while and it was great, even though I told her I thought she was beautiful. Again… After grabbing a quick coffee we got to work. By the end of the day we were both proud of our achievements, as I had managed to nail most of the routine and only felt like I needed to neaten it all up. She seemed pretty happy too.
We exchanged mobile numbers and made a breakfast date at Starbucks for the next morning, and then went our separate ways.
AN. I'M SORRY.
This was probably really repetitive and full of mistakes but I wrote it in about an hour, so I can only apologise. Next chapter might be tomorrow. Might not. Depends on how much homework I get. Anyway, I hope it wasn't too awful.
Review honestly please, If you're mean I'll just be mean back. You've been warned.
