"YOU HAVE TO COME BACK." I TELL James for the hundredth time. Since becoming dance captain and sling Shantel, I know there's an extra spot open and that none other than my boyfriend should fill it, but he's making it harder than it should be.
"Why are you second guessing it?" I ask with a pleading look. All I want is for us to have our final year be great because after this we restart and I don't know how many of us will stick around.
"Noelle, there's so much going on with the band right now," James justified, making me roll my eyes.
"You mean a gig. Something that you've been working on for months." I snap, sarcasm lacing my voice.
"A. Touche. And B. you don't have to be so mean about it." He gives me a pout as I squint my eyes at him.
"I get it, okay, I do. But Internationals." I express. "You told me yourself that it'd be amazing."
James lets out a deep sigh. "I got band practice. I gotta go." He says, getting up, but it feels like an excuse. "We'll talk about this later." He places a kiss on my head.
"I guess I thought he'd want it after all we've gone through."

I walked into the music room to meet up with Chloe, who texted me that West wanted to enhance his ballet skills. I thought it was strange considering West isn't your typical light dancer, but I guess he wants more.
"Thank you guys so much for helping me out. I'm sure West will appreciate it." Chloe says towards Noah and Abi, who are at two different ballet bars.
"Happy to help out, my fellow man." Noah replies, trying to look cool in front of his crush.
"What exactly are we helping West with?" I ask, pulling Chloe to the side to let the two warm up.
"He signed himself up for a ballet audition courtesy of Eldon challenging him." Chloe explains with a laugh.
"Hey, Chloe, Noelle." Noah calls, motioning a hand to come to him. "I need you two to do a favour for me, okay?" He says once we come over.
"Whatever I do," He starts, looking behind us at Abi. "Make me look good, in that direction." He subtly points over to Abi as I try not to laugh at his seriousness.
"Okay." Chloe gives him a flat smile while nodding her head as I smile amusingly at the boy, who now looks excited.
"Just make sure you guys are warmed up for when West gets here." Chloe instructs as the doors open widely with a very loud West coming in.
"Okay Chloe! I see you brought our dance, captain! Abi, Noah!" He struts in dabbing up Noah.
"West." Chloe and I call out. "This is a ballet mock audition. Ballet is much more refined. Instead of saying what's up, try saying good afternoon friends." She corrects him.
