Chapter 43

Izzy had managed to get out of seeing Matt for the rest of the week, although she hadn't told Lindsay or anyone outside of School about what had happened not for lack of trying, every time she called Lindsay was always busy. So by the time the auditions came round Sunday she was not looking forward to doing the couples piece with him.

"Hello and Welcome to City Ballet Academy," Ginny said standing in the middle of the stage talking to all the potential applicants and their parents, as they had managed to steal the theatre for the day, which was lucky as if Izzy had counted kind of correctly there were over 2000 people trying out for 10 places,

"Those odds suck," Izzy said under her breath and Sarah nodded as they stood behind Ginny smiling into the crowd with all the other seniors that had been chosen,

"Today we will start with basic positions, if we come round and tap you on the shoulder you are going home, you are allowed a mistake once in a sequence anymore and we will send you home. The girls will be split into 15 groups, 7 groups will be going to the dance school, 7 groups staying here, you should know where you are going, so those for the dance school please leave and wait in the foyer, your parents can go with you." she stopped as the people that needed to go left,

"And the boys into 5 groups, 2 groups going to the dance school may go now please," she waited as the boys left,

"And you have the numbers on your tags, so numbers 1-100 of the girls take to the stage you're up first,"

Ginny turned round and looked at the seniors, "Izzy, Matt, Sarah stop here, James, Kate and Liza go back to the school and do that group with Linda please," she said and everyone nodded, Izzy secretly hating Ginny in that moment but Sarah grabbed hold of her hand and squeezed it smiling and Izzy smiled back, and walked to the middle of the stage after Ginny left as they were in charge of the session,

"Everyone I want you to grab a place on the bar, we will show you how it is done once, you copy and then we will be watching you," Izzy said loudly so everyone could hear, "You have one chance, do not blow it, but most importantly, enjoy it!" she said shouting the last part and smiling, making eye contact with Danni who looked really nervous but when Izzy smiled at her she smiled back and they began the auditions.

By lunch time the 2000 had gone down to a mere 500, 350 girls and 150 boys, but it was still too much so after another 2 rounds after lunch it was down to the top 80, 40 girls and 40 boys, which means it was time for the couples round, each person was partnered off, Annalese and Danni making it to the final 80, each couple was given a set routine to do which Matt and Izzy showed them, and that it's self didn't look as brilliant as it once had done as the chemistry had gone between them.

Finally after a long and tiring day it came down to the final group of people, 16 girls and 8 boys, each needing to be put in ½ and out of that they had to decided how many to let in on scholarships and those who will have to pay, and after a long while they had finally decided,

"We have come to a decision," Ginny said standing in front of the stage of finalists, "Numbers, 345, 134, 67 and 90 from the boys," she said looking at the boys who were trembling slightly, "You're in," and the ones that got in cheered, the others however shook hands with the winners and left the stage, "Girls," Ginny said looking at the 20 girls, "339, 922, 1304, 223, 445 are all in," she said and Annalese smile beamed as she was read out and the girls joined the boys that had made it through, "And the girl in on a scholarship is, 56," and Danni's mouth dropped as she beamed and smile and ran over to the people that had gotten in even hugging Annalese, "Sorry to those that didn't get in, and congratulations to those that have done," Ginny said smiling as the ones that had gotten in hugged each other and began getting to know each other, they ranged in age from 13 to 10.

"Congratulations," Izzy said to them all before hugging Danni and turning to walk back to dorms, anything to be away from Matt, "Sarah I'm gonna go back, see you later," Izzy said and Sarah smiled and nodded,

"See you hunni," Sarah said and Izzy left, Matt saw this and saying well done to his sister and following her out of the main room and then out of the theatre.

Once they got to school Izzy stopped and turned,

"If you're going to follow me do it with a little more stealth," Izzy said crossing her arms over her chest, "What do you want Matt? Was breaking my heart not enough, you want to come and stomp on it as well,"

"I am so sorry," Matt said looking Izzy in the eyes for the first time in a week, "I am so, so sorry,"

"Why," Izzy said determined not to cry, "Why have you done this?"

"My parents," Matt said solemnly looking down, "When Lindsay rang them up to ask them why I wasn't going, they didn't know about you, my dad is a lawyer, a very good one, he found out about everything about you, your past."

"I highly doubt that he found out everything," Izzy whispered hoping it was not true,

"You were working for the British Police, your parents were drug dealers, and they were trying to find some of the biggest drug dealers in the whole of the EU." Matt said, and Izzy's face dropped "That was all they managed to found out but it was enough. We had arguments, a lot of arguments, they don't approve of you, of who you are, of your past, and you're not what they wanted me to have in a girlfriend,"

"And you listened to them," Izzy said, "You listened to your parents and stopped our 7 month relationship, because your parents don't approve of me. You broke my heart because your parents don't approve of me. At least we didn't have sex," she said trying to laugh through her tears.

"Izzy," Matt said sighing, looking at her crying broke his heart,

"You forgot about me instead of telling me all this," Izzy said, "I would have understood if you had told me, well not understood but I wouldn't be hating you as much as I do now if you had done. You totally blanked me Matt, I thought I had done something wrong, I thought it was me, I thought I was a bad girlfriend, a bad friend because I didn't know about your family, know that you had a little sister."

"You weren't," Matt said walking up to Izzy and trying to hold onto her hand but she pulled away, "But I realised now I want you Izzy, I want you as a friend, as a girlfriend, I just want you in my life, please."

"I can't do this," Izzy said pulling her hand away from his, "I can't do this now," she said pulling her bag onto her shoulder more and running out of the school and down the street leaving Matt to stand with his hand still out and sigh.

***

Izzy knocked on the door and waited for an answer; she wiped her eyes and tired to compose herself as the door opened,

"Hey is Leah there?" Izzy asked Danni who was smiling brightly at her,

"Izzy are you okay?" Danni asked looking at Izzy's tear stained face,

"Yeah, is your sister in?" Izzy asked and Danni nodded and shouted for Leah, "Congratulations on getting in again," Izzy said smiling and Danni smiled back as Leah came to the door,

"Izzy," Leah said looking at her face and sighed, "Come on we need to go for a little walk," she said grabbed some money off the side, chucked Izzy's bag into the house and shouted that she was going out.

"Talk," Leah said as they walked down the path and onto the road,

"I think me and Matt broke up," Izzy said sniffling,

"Oh hunni what happened," Leah said hugging Izzy from the side and decided to sit down on a bench once they crossed the road towards a park,

"His parents 'Think I'm the wrong person for him to date or be friend with'" she said inserting quotation marks with her fingers, "So he decided to ignore me totally till Tuesday, I had a go at him, and then we have ignored each other all week till now, he just told me after we had another fight," she said and wiped the tears from her cheeks with her sleeve,

"He's so dead," Leah said glaring at no one and hugging Izzy close, "You told your mom?" she asked and Izzy shook her head,

"She's been busy this week, and I don't know how to say it, don't wonna make a fuss," Izzy said shrugging,

"Babe you just turned up on my front door step looking like you've been crying for hours," Leah said, "I think you need to tell her,"

"I need to sort it out first," Izzy said, "It's all there fault, even in the bloody grave they still are making my life miserable," she said angrily,

"They?" Leah said confused,

"My biological parents," Izzy said, "I just remembered you don't know what happened to me do you," she said and Leah shrugged,

"I don't care what has happened in your past, everyone has skeletons in their closets," Leah said,

"Yeah, but mine happen to be actual skeletons," Izzy said laughing slightly, "My biological parents, and I use the term loosely, are dead," she said and Leah took a quick intake of breath, "They died a year ago in 2 months, they were shot in front of me."

"I am," Leah started but Izzy stopped her,

"I am not sorry, I'm glad they died," Izzy said shrugging, "They deserved what they got, they were drug dealers and they never cared about me,"

"Okay then," Leah said, "So that is why Matt's parents hate you?" and Izzy nodded, "Well they suck because you rock so much and I don't know why you they wouldn't like you,"

"Cause they are so stuck up its untrue," Izzy said sighing, "His dad's a lawyer,"

"Well that explains it," Leah said laughing, "Lawyers are always snotty people anyway, bet his mom is made of money as well, some wealthy business man friend of the mayor, that sort of thing,"

"Yeah," Izzy said smiling, "It doesn't make it any better,"

"I know," Leah said hugging Izzy close as she put her head onto Leah's shoulder, "You gonna tell your mom?" and Izzy shook her head,

"I'm gonna sort it out my way," Izzy said smiling, wiping her face of tears, "Come on, I better get back to school,"

"And I need to get home," Leah said, and they both stood up, Leah pulling Izzy into a hug, "Your gonna be okay you know babe,"

"I hope so," Izzy said trying to smile,

"I know you will, cause I am seriously gonna go to your school and kick that boys ass from here to London," Leah said and Izzy laughed,

"I think I need to go back to school you know," Izzy said, "I kinda just left and no one knows where I went,"

"Come on we can get your bag and then be off," Leah said smiling,

"How's your mom by the way isn't she due soon?" Izzy asked on their way back,

"Yeah she was 3 days ago," Leah said laughing, "This one doesn't wonna come out,"

"Poor Ellie," Izzy said laughing, "Well text me when it does decide to turn up, cause I assume you may be sleeping at my school to get some sleep,"

"Probably," Leah said laughing, and they turned back into her driveway, walking up to the house and Leah leaned in and grabbed Izzy's bag for her and pulled Izzy into another hug, "I loves you hunni,"

"Love you too," Izzy said smiling and hugging Leah close, "I better be going, ring you later,"

"You can bet on it," Leah said smiling, hugging Izzy one last time before walking into the house and closing the door, Izzy sighed and looked at the house before deciding against going in because she knew the trips would be asleep and that Lindsay would be as well, and Danny would still be at work. So she grabbed her bag off the floor and walked off towards the subway so she can get back to school.

She got back to school about 11pm after she missed her 1st train and decided to walk the long way home, thinking about everything that had happened, just walking and thinking about everything she needed to, it helped her a lot and once she had gotten back and had some hugs from Sarah who has stayed up worried about what time she was going to be back and what had happened to her, she went to sleep, and for the first time in weeks she slept soundly.

Review me happy :D xxxx
