Chanelle's p.o.v
I hit the floor with no fear at all. I know I got this in the bag. I could hear the crowd going crazy but I pushed them to the back of my mind. I waited for the music to start, before bucking. My. Ass. Off! I hit the moves as hard as I could. My body moved in sync with the beat. I hit every stunt as hard as I could and swiftly as I could. I felt like I was by myself. I didn't have a care in the world. I hit every death drop, cat jump, elbow cartwheel and more like no other. The last stunt was a death drop. And once my back hit the ground forming the last stunt which was a death drop... I knew I left it all on the floor. My name was burnt in the floor. C-H-A-N-E-L-L-E. I stood up as the crowd went insane and waited for the other girls go to lead the way back to the room we were in earlier.
My group had all the best. Kayla, Camryn, Crystianna, Makayla, Kenjanae, Sunjai, Tamia and I of course. And a lot more. Like I said, the best. We went back to the room and broke out into cheer. "We killed that!" Kayla says dancing again. She hit the shmoney dance. We all joined in with her and hug eachother while congratulate some girls. Even the ones who didn't give it their all. You could tell they wasn't makin the squad. "I know everybody in our group made it on the team." Kenjanae says flicking her hair. We laugh at her.
"Aye yall. Hush ms.d finna call us back to the floor." Sunjai says. We all get quiet and hear Ms. D announce us back to the flor. We come out again with smiles for the camera and sit in the spot according to our number. Tamia was 71 and I was 72. I suddenly got butterflies as she started reading numbers.
"When I call your number please stand up." Ms. D says in the mic. One she gets to the 60's I take a few deep breaths to keep calm. The crowd had gave some loud ass claps whenever someone got called. Well people's families was louder when their child got called. But everyone in attendance was clapping for all the girls.
"61. 64. 66. 67. 68. 71. 72..." The last two numbers she said made a couple people in the crowd go CRAZY. I look around and spot my family. That's why it got so hyped. My loud ass family. I smile and wave at them. But I heard my name being called/cheered/wolfed in a different direction. I look around and see... Hakeem?!!? What the hell?! I knew this nigga was stalking me! As if he read my mind, He held up a cardboard box. One side said 'I'm not stalking you.' And it had a wink face by it. I laughed slightly. The other side read. 'I told you, you'd do great, ma!!' I smiled brightly as I read it.
He smiled back at me showing his deep dimples. I blew him an air kiss. And he sent me a wink. I could feel my cheeks heat up as soon as he sent it. Ms d told all the girls who's number she called to the front. Tamia and I stood holding hands.
"Ladies and gentlemen. I give you the 2015 Dancing Dolls team!" She says making the crowd go wild, again. "Now please can I have...." She lists a couple of the girls. Tamia and I included. I was confused until she says.
"Ladies and gentlemen I give you the Dancing Dolls stand battle squad." She announces.
Damn I made stand battle squad too? Get em! Only a few people get really hyped. Since their weren't that many of us. Everyone clapped. But the ones of us that were called our families cheered like maniacs. We went to the back and got dressed in our normal clothes and everyone went to meet up witht their families. I looked around for Hakeem but I ain't see him no more. Oh well, I'll text him later.
I met up with my family Where I saw them sitting . Da'kin and Chanay crip walked to me cheering 'that's my dawg.' Niggas. I laughed with them. Before I felt myself get lifted off the ground and thrown into the air. I screeched as the person put me down. It was Dayvon. He hugged me tight and told me he was proud of me. I thanked him and Tamia thanked the, as they congratulated her too. My mom and auntie decide we wasn't goin out t celebrate ase all went to the car.
