Go live your way Part 2

Ohne Titel Teil152

In the next week everything was back to normal. All the students were back and normal everyday life began again. Fittingly, both the English teacher and the Spanish teacher had essays written about the internships.

Alex prepared the group for the competition. He took Clara and Luis as front characters with classical ballet. He had come up with a great song that just fit. The whole group was thrilled. Clara spent the whole afternoon in the Go with Luis. They practiced their performance. When the boys came from Baskettballtrainig , Zoe and Mia were waiting for them and they made their way to go with Roberto.

They came just in time to see Luis Clara gently brushing a strand of hair from her face and holding her hand with the other hand. Roberto stopped dead in the door, Claras and his eyes met and Roberto turned around wordlessly and left the GO. The others stopped at first while Clara pulled her hand away from Luis and stood up. Luis jumped up and said "We just took a break"

Juanma had followed Roberto. He knew what he was feeling, he had had these feelings with Mia and with Zoe about Gaspar .

Alvaro talked to Luis and Clara during that time. He tried to suppress his impulse to piss Luis off and just asked "What was going on?" Clara had wanted to run after Roberto, but Mia said "Let Juanma take care of it, it doesn't make sense now".

Luis explained that they took a break and Clara had told something about her past and had tears in her eyes. The song was emotional and he wanted to comfort her.

When Alvaro didn't say anything at first, Luis said a little defiantly "The Go is there to express feelings": "But not to steal someone else's girlfriend," said Zoe with an angry look. Clara jumped up again "Believe me it was nothing".

Juanma had caught up with Roberto in the meantime. "Hey wait," he said, holding Roberto's arm.

Roberto turned around. He did not say anything. Juanma puts his hand on his shoulder "You know that Clara wouldn't do something right?" "Do I know that?"

"You should know. Believe me, I've been to where you are a hundred times."

In the meantime they had sat down on a bench. "Juanma, I can't lose her. I would slip off again and start all over again. I can feel it. She gives me support in every dark moment. You all do that, but she ..."

"..is something special. Roberto, I understand you very well. But I am sure that nothing came from Clara. Look how often have you been with Mia or Zoe, where Alvaro and I felt the same as you did now."

"Yeah, but I was confused, I wasn't who I am now."

"And as who you are now, you should make sure to talk to Clara. I know it's easier said than done." Roberto looked at the floor. "Everything was so great between us. Why did he have to come to our school."

"It will be great again," said Juanma. "I'm quite sure of that. But the Go is also a place where Clara has to dance with the boys. Think of me and Mia."

" But holding hands is not part of this"

Juanma had to smile. "Well in Mias and my case, yes," he said. Roberto looked at him and said "It's different with you two." Juanma nodded.

He had seen Mia and Clara approach them. "I think she wants to talk to you." he said.

"But don't want to speak with her," said Roberto and wanted to get up. Juanma held him tight. "Don't do that. Don't do that to yourself or her, Roberto. You're doing badly now, and so is her. Talk to her." Mia and Clara had almost reached the two of them. Mia nodded to Juanma. "Please" said Juanma again to Roberto and got up. He waited until Clara had sat down next to Roberto, then he and Mia went to the others. Luis was no longer in the go and Zoe and Alvaro were just about to go to meet them. " Everything OK?" asked Alvaro.

"That will be seen" said Mia.

They went to the cafeteria. Zoe went into Mias and her room on an excuse. She pulled the small case with the record player from under the bed, then took out the record. She put it in the case and put everything else away. Then she brought the record to Ramiro. Ramiro was happy and promised to go to Charlie the same day so that he can duplicate it. Then he could bring it back to Zoe and hopefully Mia wouldn't notice the absence.

When Zoe came back to the others, Clara and Roberto were also on their way to the cafeteria. Roberto had taken Clara's hand and Zoe took a deep breath in relief. Clara looked tearful but happy nonetheless. She took them to the table where the others had sat. Roberto winked at Juanma. " Thank you" he said. Juanma nodded smiling.
