Dance In The Rain

1. Pyramid

I woke up to my alarm clock going off luckily it was a song I like Animal by Kristina Maria, I groaned as I pressed the off button, I had to miss school today because of full day dance rehearsal, I heard a light knock at my door,

"Hmm" I mumbled was I lifted my head to see who it was , Chloe yup I'm Chloe Lukasiak's sister

"Hey Faye Mom just wanted to make sure you were up" She said

"Wide awake now" I giggled it caused Chloe to giggle to , even though we're sisters we always had a special bond, she means the world to me and I wouldnt know what to do if she was gone luckily we're both on the competition team at ALDC so I see her all the time at home and dance,

"You excited for pyramid" Chloe asked as she sat on the desk , I got out of bed brushing my hair and putting it into a neat bun, I smirked and turned around

"Oh Clo you know Im always excited for pyramid" I said as if I was a fair maiden in need of a prince , Chloe looked at me weird and cracked up laughing

"And this is why I love you Faye" she smiled

"Love you to kiddo" I smiled ruffling her hair

"Faye can you do my hair for dance today?" she asked I smiled

"Of course what do you want done?" I asked her , she smiled as she sat done at my vanity mirror with all my make up and hair care products ,

"A ponytail with a french braid into it" she smiled I grabbed a brush and pulled her long curly blonde hair into a ponytail both me and my sisters have natural blonde hair but I dye mine because I needed to try something new , I braided the right side of Chloe's hair and pulled it all together and tied a hair elastic around it


"What do you think?" I asked Chloe when she looked in the mirror , suddenly a huge smile crept onto her face,

"I LOVE IT FAYE!" She squealed I chuckled "Nice to know your big sister does hair right" I said spraying some hair spray into her hair to make it stay right and not fall out during practice today

"Faye Chloe you girls up here" Mom called out to us

"Yup we're up here mom!" we called back , Mom walked into my room

"Wow Faye your room is so clean" she said smiling

"Thanks Clo here helped" I said gesturing to my little sister who was now admiring her new hair in the mirror

"Mom do you like my hair Faye did it" Chloe said excited showing it off to mom,

"Wow Faye this is amazing" she said I shrugged "Normal girl things you know no biggy" I smiled She nodded

"Alright we gotta be at the studio in one hour so get ready" She stated I nodded as her and Chloe left my room, I looked around my dance bag was already packed with my water bottle, Ipod with headphones, My pointe shoes and my character and tap shoes plus a pair of tango shoes, my cellphone was charging I grabbed my pink leopard print shorts and a small black crop top and hauled it on with my Abby Lee Dance Company competition hoodie that had my name on it,


I checked myself twice in the mirror to make sure I looked presentable I did thank god, My phone went off I picked it up and it was Brooke calling

"Hey Brooke" I said answering my phone

"Hey Faye" she responded back

"You excited for pyramid?" I asked her , she sighed

"Yeah as usual Maddie is going to be at the top " she said

"Again" we said in unison cracking up laughing , Brooke may be my biggest competition but shes my best friend so if she wins or I win we both win!

"Well Mom's calling out to me she cant find my blue crop top" Brooke said annoyed

"Brooke the one with black stripes on the sides?" I asked rummaging through my bag with my phone pressed up against my ear with my shoulder

"Yeah thats the one," she said

"Funny thing remember you loaned it to me Saturday's Acro class!" I said

"Oh yeah, MOM FAYE GOT THE SHIRT!" Brooke yelled to her mom through the phone

"Brooke remember my ear is attached to my head" I teased,

"Oops sorry girl!" she said "well got to go Faye see you at practice text me when you get there"

"Sure thing Brooke see you then" and with that I hung up putting my phone in my pocket of my hoodie , I zipped up my bag and went downstairs to find Mom Dad Chloe and Clara eating breakfest ,

"Good morning pumpkin" my dad said , I kissed him on the cheek, Pumpkin was always my nickname Chloe's was Boo-Berry and Clara is Apple only because thats all we ate as children , well Clara is only 2 but she still Dances at Abby's just not on the competition team,

"Morning Daddy" I said as I sat down next to Chloe while Mom tried to get Clara to eat

"I wanna eat like Faye" Clara protested refusing to eat for mom,

"Hey Clara if your a good girl and eat's all your break fest I'll sit by you in the car" I said Clara's face lite up and she started to eat all her apple slices

"Does that mean I get to sit in front"Chloe asked excited

"Sure do kiddo" I smiled break fest ended at 7:30 we had to be at dance by 8:15, I could drive but I promised Clara I would sit by her she was in her pink leotard with her baby flats on since both her and Chloe had their own dance bags, Chloe had black spandex shorts on and a blue crop top like mine except spaghetti straps , I picked Clara up and put her in her car seat and buckled her in, I went around to other side and got in and sat down and buckled myself in Chloe was very happy since I always sit in the front and now she gets too, my phone started to Vibrate again , I looked at it , it was a text from Brandon my face lit up! his name in my phone is
Brandon Pent is Very Sexy I always laugh at it ,

I slid the glider across the screen to open it up

Hey Faye , Ready for class? - Brandon :)

I can't miss a good Ole' Pyramid ;) I replied back,

My phone kept beeping because I had messages from Paige Brooke and Payton but my Mom and Chloe always bug me about Brandon,

"Oh lalala Faye and Brandon sitting in a tree" Chloe Teased then Clara started to "A kissy kissy kissy I N G" she said which caused me to crack up at her

"HA HA very funny" I smirked "Wait till Josh hears this one Clo!" I teased Josh is only 12 a year older then Chloe he's also Brooke and Paiges brother , she blushed and put her ear phones in,

A few seconds later Brandon messaged me back,

LOL, Hey if your not doing anything at lunch Me and Nick are going to Bens Pizzeria across the street I was wondering if you wanted to come, Brooke can tag along too! - Brandon ♥

Brandon always sent cheesy things after his name like smiley faces or hearts sometimes even pictures of himself , It was 7:45 we lived awhile away from the studio thats why I was up early every morning, I guess since I wasn't busy I'd face time him I sent him the request I waited for him to pick up and he did right away

"Hey look it's Faye" Brandon Teased I giggled, "Hey Brandon" I waved holding the Phone so he could see my face and the top part of my crop top since I had my hoodie on,

"Brandon Brandon" Clara called to him, Brandon was always a close family friend to us his mom Diane, Brookes mom Kelly and my mom were all really good friends Brandon is my age but Im only a few months older ,

"Is that Clara I hear" Brandon said smiling as I held the phone so he could see Clara

"Hows my Clar-Bear" he asked smiling Clara giggled and looked out the window,

"So are you driving to Practice to" I asked he nodded

"Yeah me and mom just got in the car when I got the face time request" he replied I smiled , I seen we were approaching the studio,

"Hey Brandon I'll see you at class we're pulling into the parking lot now" I said Brandon nodded

"See ya later Feather" he smiled cheeky that was his nick name for me I giggled and turned facetime off,

Mom got Clara out of her car seat and brought her into the dance studio I got my bag out of the car Mom gave me the keys since I was driving home, I seen Brookes car pull into the parking lot as well, me and Chloe were still outside, Brooke hopped out of her car and she seen me

"FAYE" she yelled

"BROOKE" I yelled in return as I rushed up to her and we engulfed each other into a hug

"I cant wait till Pyramid" I winked nudging Brooke she giggled

"Oh boy you knows Faye" she said nudging me back I chuckled Chloe and Paige were already talking and walking to the studio as Brooke and I did the same but Kelly was on the other side of me

"So what was your morning Faye" she asked me Kelly was always like a second Mom to me

"It was great since my best friend was the first person besides mom and Clo I got to talk to" I said smiling at Brooke

"Aweh thats sweet" Kelly replied as we entered the studio it was now 7:55 and we didnt have class till another 20 minutes, Abby was at the front desk

"Good Morning Miss Abby" Chloe and Paige said in unison

"Good morning girls" Abby said smiling, thank god shes in a good mood,

"Good Morning Abby" me and Brooke said together, Kelly said good morning and went off with the other mom's upstairs,

"Good Morning Faye and Brooke" she said smiling sweetly to us, "Ready for Pyramid" she asked me and Brooke shared a glance and nodded,

"Alright you may head into class when your ready" she said going back to her paper work Brooke went into the change rooms I seen a paper ball whiz by my head I turned around to see Brandon laughing at his fail of a accomplishment

"The object of throwing paper balls at people is your suppose to hit them with it you loser" I said walking up to Brandon he shrugged and I giggled

"Good Morning to you too Faye" he smiled I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him into a hug,

"Good Morning Brandon" I replied he wrapped his arms around my waist and we shared a hug for a few minutes just rocking back and forth I lost my balance and so did he and he fell backwards and I fell forwards by the time I realized what happened I was on top of Brandon my cheeks started to get hot which meant I was blushing ,

"Brandon I need Faye in one piece for this weekend's competition" Abby called from behind the desk

"Dont worry Miss Abby I wont hurt her" Brandon chuckled as I got off of him and helped him up as we both brushed ourselves off

"See you in class" I said as I walked into the change rooms for studio A,

"Faye" Mackenzie called to me as she jumped on top of me I lifted her up into a hug

"Hey Mac!" I said smiling and I set her down

"Did you see Brandon yet" she said happily I nodded

"Yes I did" I giggled as I took of my TOMS and put on my Pointe Shoes which were a light cotton candy pink Miss Abby got them for my sweet 16 , they all had a surprise party for me Abby got me Pointe Shoes, Chloe and Mom got me my favorite Ballet outfit, Dad got me a car but its in repair right now, Mac Maddie and Melissa got me a bunch of accessories and hair and make up products since I do everyone's hair and make up most of the time, Nia and Holly got me a new hoodie which says Love Dance Live Dance, Brooke Paige and Kelly got me new heels for my salsa and tango classes they got me 3 pairs actually Jet Black Escape Blue and Neon Green Jill and Kendall only just recently joined but Cathy and Vivi-Anne came to my house and gave me a Apple print skirt they said with lots of love from your favorite apples! yeah right, I didnt tell Miss Abby yet and I dont plan on it, but my favorite gift of all was a charm necklace from Brandon it was beautiful I wear it to all my competitions , I call it my good luck charm

I was now in my Pointe shoes and my dance outfit when Abby called us into the studio for Pyramid, last week I had a duet with Brooke called True Friends its about a girl who breaks her leg and refuses to dance again but her bestfriend helps her through the pain and she learns to love dance again , Maddie had a solo as well as Chloe and Mac had one too, then there was a group routine, Me and Brooke both placed first in our division , Maddie got first in hers Chloe in second and Mac got first in hers plus the group routine placed first overall high score it was called Wont Give Up about these girls not giving up on friendship and Love , overall it was a great weekend, we all entered the studio there stood Abby with the 8 photos covered up, we all lined up and the Moms on the side but something shocked me Diane was there Brandons mom, I shook it off maybe she came to watch,

"Morning girls" Abby said nicely to us

"Good morning Miss Abby" we said in unison,

"First of all Congrats to all of you all the numbers placed in the top 3 of each category now lets move onto the Pyramid" Abby said I rolled my eyes which got giggles from Brooke beside me

"On the bottom is (right to left) Nia Paige Kendall and Mackenzie great job girls you all were amazing nothing bad to say beautiful work your technique is improving" abby said all the girls smiled

"Next Is Choloe Brooke and Maddie" Abby said "All of you placed in your categorys beautiful work and technique proud of you all" she smiled at me my face was shocked Im always in the second row, at least never the top

"And finally Faye your on top of the Pyramid" Abby smiled I looked at Mom who was super happy her and Kelly were both clapping and giving me thumbs up, "Faye your technique was beautiful and amazing you were on spot with every move there was not one part that I picked out that was wrong over all beautiful performance"

"Thank you" I said as Abby discussed this weeks assignments

"This week there will be a Duet, A Trio , and A group" Abby started "But Faye you will not be in this group or Trio you have a duet" I nodded ,I held Brookes hand Brooke was always my Duet partner

"But before I let out any spoilers the Trio is the Original girls Paige Chloe and Maddie, the Group has everyone in it except Faye you need to focus on your routine , the group will show case Nia," Abby said gesturing to Nia on my left I put my arm around her and hugged her she deserved this alot she helped me and Brooke with our duet last week alot,

"The Trio is called Over and Over and the group will be called Want you back about girls fighting for their rights back" we all nodded, Abby looked at me "Faye your duet isnt with anyone in this room" she stopped I sighed as Brooke let go of my hand I looked at her in disappointment

"But this person should cheer you up" Abby stated "Oh Brandon!" she called

My face lite up with a huge smile on my face I never got to dance with Brandon before, he walked through the door and I ran right towards him he held out his arms and I jumped on him wrapping my legs around his waist and hugging him tightly and closely, he wrapped his arms around me to , we got awehs from everyone in the room, I got off of Brandon I didnt want to hurt him , I grabbed his hand and pulled him over with the girls and I , I still had a hold of it but I didnt really notice

"Happy about your duet partner" Abby smiled I smiled cheerfully "Yes a thousand times over, he's no Brooke but he'll do" I said winking at Brandon he chuckled Abby smiled alright everyone in your spots except Faye and Brandon you can relax till your rehearsal, me and Brandon went upstairs with the rest of the moms to talk
