PRACTICE ROOM>
When Mariana got there,it was filled up already. The old team are there together with new students who are wishing to join. Including Tessa,Mariana rolled her eyes immediately until she heard her name
“Mariana” The voice called and she turned
“Delaney” She immediately smiled and walked to her
“You’re joining us?” Mariana asked
“Yeah welcome me” Delaney smiled
“You’re welcome princess” Mariana bowed cutely and Delaney laughed
“Listen everyone,for the new students. You have to train for weeks before your first stage appearance” Miss Penelope,one dance teachers spoke up
“And for the old students,this Friday is going to be a blast!!” She gushed happily and everyone clapped
“So as usual,we are going to be choosing ten of you so you can begin your practice” Miss Penelope said
“You will be chosen for sure” Delaney whispers to Mariana
Ten students were chosen after few minutes including Tessa and Mariana
“Who’s gonna be lead dancer?” One of the team asked and there was silence
“I will do it” Tessa spoke up immediately
“We want Mariana tho” a girl said
Mariana kept quiet
“Mariana have been leading,let Tessa do it this time. Not like she’s better than Tessa” another girl rolled her eyes
“Fine,Tessa get prepared for the solo dance” Miss Penelope said and Tessa smiled
“Of course” She said
Mariana said nothing
“Practice starts today,let’s all meet by then. You’re dismissed”
The girls started leaving one after the other
“So,what do you think?” Tessa smirked at Mariana
“Congratulations” Mariana smiled
“I don’t need it from you,see you” Tessa chuckled and walked away
Mariana rolled her eyes,she wouldn’t deny the fact that she felt annoyed about Tessa getting the lead dance this type,like what the h*ll?
“Sad?” Delaney moved closer to her
“Not at all” Mariana muttered
They went to the lecture hall together only to find everywhere noisy,that was when Mariana saw Francisco. He seems like the spotlight,the girls all surrounded him,flirting and asking him some silly things.
“He look like a bad boy,definitely enjoying being the center of attention” Delaney whispers to Mariana before they joined the other girls
“See that dude?” Octavia gestures at Francisco
“So what?” Charlotte and Mariana snapped
“Oh easy babes,easy” Octavia said and they laughed
The lecturer came in and the class started.
••••••
“Am I the only one who’s starving?” Charlotte asked
“Nope,I’m hungry. On my way to the cafeteria” Octavia said
“Royce!!!! Royce please wait up!!” Veronica followed Royce but he never looked back
Octavia glared at Veronica angrily and scoffed
“Is she crazy? Did she came here because of Royce?” Alexa hissed
“She’s silly” Octavia scoffed
“Girls!” Delaney called from the back and they turned
“Oh,where’s Mariana?” She asked as she got to them
“She said she will meet us in the cafeteria” Charlotte said
Alexa got a mail on her phone and she stopped walking
“Girls,go ahead I will meet you” She said
“What should we get for you?” Octavia asked
“Uhm…hamburger and lemonade” Alexa replied before walking away
“Bet she’s going to meet Jeremy” Octavia said
“Are they dating?” Delaney asked
“My wish!” Charlotte laughed.
••••••
Jeremy was waiting patiently for Alexa,he’s planning to give her the necklace he got her,he wanted to do it specially but seems like he’s wasting time already.
‘I hope she likes it’ he thought,staring at it
Almost immediately the door opened and he looked up expecting to see Alexa but it’s Tessa
“Jeremy”
“Tessa”
They both called at a time and Tessa smiled,walking closer to him
“What are you doing here?” Jeremy asked
“I saw you coming in earlier so I came to check on you” Tessa replied and Jeremy got up
“Why are you here alone?” She asked
“Can you just…..”
“The necklace!” Tessa gushed,cutting Jeremy off
She walked closer to him and tried touching the necklace but Jeremy shifted back
“Don’t move closer” he said
“I just want to…”
“Tessa!” Jeremy shouted and she flinched
“I said you should leave! Stay away from me” Jeremy said
Tessa looked at him sadly
“Why do you h@të me so much?” She asked
“What are you talking about?? I don’t think we like each other,I don’t like you and you don’t like me either…”
“That was then” Tessa snapped and Jeremy raised his brows
“I know it’s crazy but I like you Jeremy” She said and Jeremy scoffed
“I see you’re going crazy” he said and made to walk toward the door
“Wait” Tessa held him
“What the Füçk!” Jeremy shoved her hand off
“Let’s be friends,please” Tessa said
“Are you like this because of the silly deal we had,let’s end it here. Don’t worry like I said I won’t expose you but let’s just end it here and go back to the time we h@tëd each other” Jeremy said and turned again
“I don’t want to go back to that time,so please give me your attention too,please” she said in tears
Jeremy stared at her unbelievably
“Are you planning something again??” He asked
“No I’m not,trust me just this once please.” She muttered and there was silence
Tessa slowly moved closer and hugged him
Jeremy was still looking shocked and confused,he didn’t even bother pushing her away until the door opened and Alexa came in
Jeremy immediately pulled Alexa from himself
“Alexa….”
“Don’t call my name” She muttered before turning to Tessa
“You crazy Bîtch!” She yelled and slapped Tessa angrily
Tessa’s hair scattered all over her face and she held her cheek
Alexa almost hit her again but Jeremy stopped her
“Alexa that’s enough,I can explain okay? It’s not even what you’re thinking…..” She slapped Jeremy too and he gave her a surprise look
“Don’t talk to me again” She said and walked out of the class
Tessa held Jeremy’s hand
“I’m sorry,it’s all my fault…”
“Füçk off” Jeremy threw her hand and walked away
Tessa bite her bottom lip,she almost left too but her eyes caught with something shining on the floor,she squatted and took it. It’s the necklace Jeremy was planning to give Alexa.
She placed it on her palm and the diamond sparkles
She sighed and kept it before going out.
••••••
Mariana inhaled and exhaled as she washed her face,she stared at her face in the mirror and swallowed hard. Her heart has been racing for the past twenty minutes,even after using her pills,it was as if she was going to die.
She touched her chest and the beating is now back to normal.
She had forgotten to take her morning dose,maybe that’s why.
After spending another five minutes in the restroom,she walked out.
She got a text from Charlotte
*WHERE ARE YOU?? MEET US AT THE CAFETERIA*
She checked the time,their second class starts in just ten minutes
She immediately turned toward the cafeteria,her face was down as she walked,she suddenly bumped her head into something quite hard,she could see the legs,it’s a guy
“Hey doll face” Francisco’s voice made her look up
“Oh….” Mariana muttered
Francisco smiled handsomely
“Francisco,my name” He said stretching his hand for a shake
‘Why does he look so familia?’ Mariana thought,staring at his face without saying a word
“Cupcake” Francisco called and she snapped out of her imagination
“Mariana” She said without taking his hand
Francisco hold her hand and shook it gently before letting her go
“Nice meeting you” He smiled
“You too” Mariana replied and there was silence as they both stared at each other without looking away
They didn’t know Leonard have been watching the whole time,he fold his fist as he glared at Francisco and the fact that Mariana gave him her attention annoyed him even more
He turned back and walked straight to the private lecture class.
Ricardo and Dior are the only ones inside,Leonard walked to where he was sitting and took his headphones and other things
He started leaving again
“Where are you going?” Ricardo asked
“I will be taking the general class from now on” Leonard replied and walked out of the hall
Ricardo and Dior exchanged glances looking totally shocked
