Andy, my main duuude. I saw your review and was like, "The more times you say please, the more I want to update!" Haha, thanks for reviewing. And sorry that I haven't updated, I've been busy with school. Geometry, am I right? Anyways, let's dooo this. Short... sowy... I think this is what you would call... A Filler Chapter. Hey hey HEY... it's better than nothing!
Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Dani practically smashed her alarm and dug her head under her pillow, desperately needing five more minutes. She sighed, remembering the awkward run in with the beautiful latina the other day. Dani then slowly got up from her bed, and rubbed her eyes before she stretched out. She walked across the seemingly endless hall to the bathroom, and stared for a second at her reflection.
"What ran you over?" Dani groggily asked herself, patting her hair down a little.
After her morning routine, Dani checked her phone calendar.
Show for Ms. Lopez (Not Santana, Dani)- 12:00
Girl's Night- 6:00
Dani looked at the time which read 11:30. Better start heading out. Dani grabbed her board and her headphones, and headed out to one of the studios.
...
Dani opened the door to the studio and saw Ms. Lopez sitting on a couch with Isabella and a man who looked very professional. Isabella's eyes practically lit up when she saw Dani.
"Ah, Dani, you're a little early huh?" Ms. Lopez asked, smiling. Dani paused her music and slid her headphones to her neck. She then set her board down against the wall behind her. Dani then checked the time.
"I guess I am." Dani gave Ms. Lopez a smile back, and looked at the man. He looks familiar. Dani thought. The man got up, and smiled from ear to ear, extending his arm out to Dani. Dani shook it.
"I'm Will Shuester. I reccomended you to Ms. Lopez here." Dani, out of nowhere, remembered where she knew him from.
"You're the mystery guy who came to one of my performances!" Will nodded and then pointed at Dani.
"You, are just oozing talent my friend. That's why your teacher had me come to your show." Dani then mentally thanked her teacher.
"So, Ms. Darek, would you like to do your thing?" Will asked. Dani nodded, and went into the secluded room where the others followed. Dani saw three chairs, all facing a baby grand piano. She wasn't nervous. She was excited to perform for the talent scout. This is her big break. Dani quickly walked to the piano bench, and stared at the small audience before she began playing.
When she finished her performance of Fix a Heart, an original song, she hovered her hands over the keys for a second before she stood up. She looked at the three. Will, a big smile, Ms. Lopez, her eyes closed as if she were still listening, and Isabella who seemed starstruck.
"That... was amazing Dani. I'm glad I arranged this meeting. It was nice formally meeting you." Will beamed. He once more, shook Dani's hand, and walked out of the room to get ready to leave.
"Dani that was, life changing. You wrote this?" Ms. Lopez asked. Dani nodded. Dani felt a light blush come across her face. She was never complimented so much on her music and it felt really good.
"I did." Dani then looked at Isabella who was still staring at Dani with big eyes. Dani just gave a cross between a smirk and a smile.
"You also play very nicely. How long have you played?" Dani thought for a second.
"Uhm... I was maybe ten when I started learning." Ms. Lopez nodded and checked the time on her very expensive watch.
"Oh dear, we're late for a meeting with Lil' Billy Beat. I will put a good word in to Mr. Lopez about you Dani. I see big things for you. C'mon sweetie." Isabella nodded at her mom. When she turned around, Isabella winked at Dani before she left with her mom. Dani sighed at the freshman, and sat at the piano again. She hovered her fingers over the white keys and started playing something different from her usual style. Jazz. Dani always liked jazz piano. Her mom played jazz piano all the time when she was a kid, and Dani just fell in love with it. Sadly, Dani never played the genre since her mom passed away. Until now of course.
Dani got lost in the notes. Her eyes fluttered closed, a light smile on her face. For some reason this peace reminded her of Santana and herself. What it would be like if they were together. Santana is the bass clef, and Dani is the treble clef. How wonderful it-
"No!" Dani then pounded once on the piano in frustration. What the hell Dani? Stop it. Think about cake or something. Dani grunted and removed herself from the instrument. Dani ran her hand through her hair, and sighed loudly. All she could think of now was Santana, and she knew that that was one of the stages of having a crush.
