You know, standing infront of a crowd of thousand or more isn't as

intimidating as it seems. People think, oh how does she do that? I would

never do that it must be so hard to do that in front of millions live. Even

on T.V. but really, it isn't. People just think it is because it looks hard.

Sometimes it looks easy but is hard,like jumping into your partners arms and

being graceful about it. Now that is hard, and looks easy. But once you get

the hang of it, it looks hard and is easy because you do it without fault.

But right now, I'm doing something hard, that even looks hard. Im doing

something a lot of people have done and got hurt trying it. Right now...well

you watch in see.

I was lifted gracefully into the air and spun air,and slowly let down to the

ground. I held my breathe and touched the ground as my partner held me, it

looked like I was floating above the ground,but really I was touching- well

barely- touching the ground, I did a back flip in his arms that look

elegant. The next thing was extremely dangerous but if I pulled it off I bet

it would look half way decent. I suddenly jerked up and I knew I had to do

this. I breathed in and out, and it was like in the movies, and everything

went in slow motion. The only thing that didn't happen in the movies

happened. I was in the middle of doing a double back flip in the air, and I

fell. I fell on my leg. Everything went silient, and you could here the

crack, and then my ear shattering scream. God decided to hit the fast

forward button on my life, and the pain flooded my senses, breaking a the

magical barrier that was protecting me from the excuriciating pain in my

hamstrings and ankle on my left leg. Everything was loud, and everybody was

annoying, throwing toxic bombs at me that I couldn't return. The questions

left me speechless, didn't they see me! Of course I'm in pain you idiots.

"No I'm fine, just fine and the pain in my left leg dosnt bother me at all,

and the tears running down my face don't mean anything either, I just feel

like crying. I'm so fudging happy that there's pain in my leg that I'm

crying! Isn't that wonderful!?!?" I yelled at all of them. Yeah I'm a tad

mean when I'm sad,or annoyed,or in pain. All of wich I was, did you know

that?!? A man in his early 20's came up to me shaking his head.

"God there just trying to help you." He sad sticking up for those idiots.

"Yeah well stop asking dumb frikin questions and HELP ME!" I snapped at him,

my eyes glaring and taking in all of him. He was gorgious, he could be a

greek god or something. He had the most unusaul eyes I have ever seen, they

were pink and yellow, wich oddly scared me alittle. He had porcilien white

creamy looking skin, and red hair that was pretty long for a boys. It was

skater boy cut with the fringe just alittle longer, and a nice straight

nose,and full plump red lips that longed for me to....- wait what snap outta

it girl! Ewww...nonononon bad girl! Besides that something about him

screamed 'Familiar!'

"They're asking questions to help you! So shut your mouth,girly and let them

help you. Don't snap at me, take this as a warning, you'll regret it next

time." He said as numbing pain filled my leg.

"My leg is going numb." I said in a 'oh my friking god' tone with wide

violet eyes.

"What'd I tell you ab- wait what?" He asked in a shocked voice, as if

expecting me to back talk him or snap at him.

"My leg is going numb, is that a bad thing?" My voice said panicky.

"Yes, that kinda bad,very bad. And not just for you, you'r career also." He

said. Did he just say my career?

"What,no wait! But...but...but" I said tears welling in my eyes, and

suddenly my heart was breaking. I loved dancing, and if I don't have it, I

don't know how I will live. It was all I have to hold onto, it was the only

thing I enjoyed doing besides painting and singing.
