Isabella 'Bella' Marie Rickman: I'm Still Standing

Part 8

It took weeks for Isabella to settle back in at home. She didn't want to be left on her own and she either always wanted her daddy or Tom with her.

Tutors were always around helping her through everything. But nothing much was helping at all. Then she discovered her love in music. She was always found with her headphones on listening to some old classic from when she was born or from growing up as lonely child with only her daddy around.

Alan tried to be around as much as possible. But he was always required on set.

Isabella was in her bedroom listening to an old classic song. She had her earphones on. Bella got up and started to dance.

Alan knocked on Bella's bedroom door to hear nothing. He opened the door to see Bella dancing. He stood there in the doorway and watched his daughter elegantly dance. Alan wondered if she wanted to do dance classes. Well, she loves music and if from what he is watching she must love dancing.

Bella came downstairs to have dinner with her dad. She sat down at the kitchen table to see her dad cooking something on the stove. It smelt very nice.

They both sat to having stew and dumplings.

Bella was loving the dumplings but wasn't too keen on the stew and just nibbled on that. Alan looked up to see Bella was playing with her dinner.

"Bella, I have been thinking. You love your music, and I can never get you out of your room. So, I'm thinking about something that might help you along." Alan told her.

Bella looked up from her dinner and stared at her dad.

"Would you like to go to dance classes? I have found a dance school not far away and they're willing to take you on if you want to. It will be straight after tutoring finishes every day apart from the weekends, 4pm-9pm. Plus also they do dance shows and tutors from professional dance companies come to see the shows to get new raw talent." Alan explained.

Bella got up and hugged her dad and kissed him on the cheek and nodded a reply of yes.

"So, it's settled then. You start classes on Monday. Michael will have to take you as I am still filming now. I have nearly finished Potter 2, but I have another film coming up called 'Love Actually' so I will be filming for that then its straight into Potter 3. I'm sorry that my schedule is full for the next couple of years, but I think the dance classes will keep you busy and entertained. I will have Sophie take you shopping for your dance stuff tomorrow."
