Dance Prodigy

Maddie's secret

(unedited)

"Are you ever going to let go!" Eden huffed in annoyance.

Ten minutes had passed and Eden was still lying panned out on the floor after Jacob had flattened her to the ground.

"No! I have to make up for the hugs I lost out on" he whined playfully, loving every moment he annoyed her.

"Mom! Jacob won't get off and its been ten minutes"

"Up Jacob" Angelina shouted down the stairs at the pair.

"Fine! Jeez you women are mean..." he pouted.

"Yeh,yeh! Now tell me everything I missed!" she squealed in excitement at the thought of the juicy gossip.

"Well where do I begin..." he chuckled, stroking his non-existent beard.

"The start! Duh?"

"Har-har! Okay well I heard Ms.Abby had a big blow out with Kelly at the last competition, and then Kelly wouldn't let Brooke and Paige do their solos, but they did the group number... I also heard that Abby even threatened to expel the two girls" he exclaimed dramatically, secretly he loved their gossip sessions.

"No way! Poor Brooke and Paige!"

"I know! I also heard that Leslie, you know that mom that sometimes just stares at you? Well she's trying to weasel her way back into the group!"

"Ugh! more mom drama is on the way then"

"Yup... and you know Jack... the one you did a trio with? he's dating Hannah now!"

"What?! since when did that happen!" Eden cried out in shock.

"I know! it kind of surprised everyone" he said, finally taking a deep breathe. His gossiping session was done for the week.

"Right, get up I want to show you some new skills I learned while you were away!"

"In dancing" she asked confused, as he was pulling her out the front door.

"What? no my dad has been helping me practice my Gaelic skills"

"Oh right...." she trailed off confused.

"Remember I showed you a video? come on I thought you had a photographic memory?"

"I do! was I even awake when you were showing me?"

"Oh erm there might be a slight possibility that you were asleep" he answered, suddenly remembering hearing the sound of snores as the video played.

"Well never-mind, now  you'll be able to witness me practice the greatest sport ever invented!" he yelled out in a funny voice.

Picking up the ball, Eden watched as Jacob ran up and down the street soloing the ball.

"Well?" he asked breathlessly.

"It looked so cool! I want to see that video now! But you won't hurt yourself doing it will you?"

"Of course not, it's not like I'm playing against other people. It's just fun to learn with my dad since he's always working.
