"And up, down, spin and pose!" My dance teacher shouts over the music as we finish dancing.

We pose and then fall to the floor.

"That was exhausting." Seb falls beside me.

"Also! Before you leave there will be two special dances at this years showcase. If you would like to audition come to me at the bed of the day." He says.

We nod and run off to our next class.

"You doing it?" I ask Seb as I slip on my pointe shoes.

"Of course. My bet it'll be one the the Greatest Showman songs." He says.

"I hope so." I nod.

We go into class and stand by the bar.

"Ready to start?" Our teacher asks.

We all nod and class gets started.

----
"Move over." Cheryl pushes me to the floor.

I was literally no where near her and since I was full on standing in the shoes I fall.

"Evelyn. What happened?" My dance teacher rushes over.

I cringe at what she calls me but quickly answer.

"Cheryl pushed me." I say.

I could see Cheryl giving me the evils but I wasn't going to stay quiet about this stuff. Especially after Gia.

"Cheryl!" My dance teacher exclaims helping me up.

"She's lying!" She exclaims.

"Evelyn is one of my oldest students. She doesn't lie." The teacher squints her eyes.

"Move over beside Jack." She points.

She stomps past me.

"Now let's return." She says calmly.

"One hand out."

"Mark!" Seb and I shout walking into the empty studio.

"What's up?" He asks.

"The dances. The 'special' dances." Seb says holding up two finger when saying special.

"Oh. Well they are to two of. The greatest showman songs. For auditions just make up a quick thirty second piece. Also you'll need to learn the songs." He tells us and we nod.

"What songs?" I ask.

"The greatest show, because obviously this show is going to be amazing and this is me." He tells us.

We thank him and wave goodbye.

"Zoë! Over here!" I wave my hand around as I see a confused Zoë.

"Where were you?" She asks.

"Well there is going to be to special dances in the showcase this year. So Seb and I wanted to check out what they are and we are going to audition." We tell her.

"Ohhh. What songs?" She asks as we make our way towards the car.

"The greatest show and this is me." I tell her.

"From The Greatest Showman?" She asks.

"Yep!" I nod.

"Definitely is going to be the best showcase yet." She laughs.

"I know right." I say.

She unlocks the car and we hop in.

"Marks over by the way." She tells me.
