!!! - this chapter has a conversation that's based on Oren's ED
"In her return to City Works Ballet, Delia Whitlaw was a revelation!"
"She's luminous in this one."
"Dazzling here" A group of dancers were sitting on the floor reading reviews of Delia's show before class started
"Uh-oh. Ms. Whitlaw's talent shone bright despite Ramon Costa's efforts to diminish it." Shane read causing some of us to laugh
"Costa's choreography never achieves liftoff" Jules read and laughed along
"Chance he'll take it out on us?"
"About 112%"
"Shall we begin?" Brooks looked just as amused as the teens
"Have you seen Neveah today?" Jules shook her head at June
"Shane, you?"
"No, and psycho killer's not here either."
"I'll try calling her" She let the phone ring before letting out a sigh "Voicemail. Maybe she's gonna show later" Jules said getting up to get ready, leaving the two alone.

"Jules, can I talk to you really quick" Neveah walked into the girl's room and sat on her bed
"Where were you today?" Jules asked
"With Nabil, at the hospital"
"The hospital, is Cassie ok?"
"Jules, Cassie had a seizure earlier" She shot up from her seat
"Oh my god, I have to go " She started scrambling for shoes
"Jules wait, they're not letting anyone in that isn't on her list"
"So what her parents, who are all the way in Wisconsin?"
"And Nabil" Jules shot her head towards Neveah
"You've gotta be fucking kidding me. He gets to see her but I can't" Jules ran a hand through her hair as she paced back and forth "I should be there" She didn't hate Nabil, she just hated the fact that she couldn't go see her best friend.
"And you will be just not yet" She started to calm down a little
"Thanks for telling me"
"Of course. I gotta go get fitted but I'll see you at rehearsal"
"Before you go can I get your advice on something?"
"Shoot"
"I told Bette about what happened with Oren but she had like no reaction and today it's like she doesn't remember. I just don't know how to bring it up again to find out"
