Jace wasn't at school the next day, so I didn't really have anyone to tell about my date. I was really excited to tell Jace, too. I had it all planned out in my head.

The whole day I just kinda clung to Braydon. I didn't really have anyone else.

When I got home, I called Riele. I needed to tell someone. Like, really bad. I think I was starting to get dating withdraw. Is that even a thing? It has to be a thing. If it wasn't a thing, then what was I feeling?

Riele picked up on the second ring. "Hey."

"Hey. You want to come over for a little bit?" I ask her.

"Sure. I'll be there in 10." She hung up. Just like that. Not good-bye, see you later.

I heard a knock on the door about 10 minutes later.

"Hey!" I said when I opened the door.

"Hey."

"Let's go to my room," I suggest.

"Okay, cool." I lead her to my room.

"You play guitar?" She asks when I open the door.

"Funny. That's one of the first things Jace said, too. And yes, I do. I also sing."

"Awesome! Can I hear a little?"

"Sure. Then, can I tell you about my date?"

"Yeah! Play slash sing first."

"Okay." I pick up the guitar and start playing one of my favorite songs, Photograph, by Ed Sheeran.

"But you can keep me

inside the pocket of your ripped jeans.

Holding me closer till your eyes meet.

You wont ever be alone.

Wait for me to come home." I sing.

It's such a pretty song. The way Ed sings it makes me cry almost every time I hear him sing it. I will never be as good as him. Even when he talks he is amazing. He pronounces everything so delicately. Like he is handling a baby, and singing it a lullaby.

"Oh my god! Your such a good singer!" She exclaims when I'm done.

I blush. "Thanks," I mumble.

"We should talk to Dan and see if you can sing on the show!"

I set the guitar down. "No! I don't really wont all the attention to be on my singing. It's about Henry's life not Bianca's."

"I'm going to ask him and there's nothing you can do about it," she says and crosses her arms.

"Whatever." She'll probably forget by the next time she sees Dan. "My date?"

"Yes. Tell me all about it."

I tell her everything from the walk there, to the walk home. "Then, I went to bed because I had school in the morning," I finish, blandly.

"Wow! I feel bad for him. But, I'm glad you had fun."

"Yeah! It was a lot of fun." My phone goes off and I check it. "Dan's calling me."

"Put it on speaker phone. Maybe it's about work."

I answer and put it on speaker like Riele said.

"Hello?" I ask Dan.

"Hi, Rose. Is Jace there?"

"No. But Riele is."

"Okay good. One less phone call. I was wondering if you and Riele could come to a meeting in like 30 minutes."

"Sure, no problem," I respond.

"See you then. Bye."

"Bye." I say and he hangs up.

"My mom can probably take us," I suggest.

"Okay, cool." We go downstairs and I ask my mom to take us.

"Well, what are we waiting for?!" she shouts after I tell her about it. "Let's go! Get in the car."

We run to the car and get into the backseat. The car ride was quiet and quick. I put in my ear buds and 'Thinking Out Loud' starts playing. I close my eyes, trying to understand what Ed is trying to say in the song.

"Baby we found love

right where we are."

I think about the girl that Ed dated. I don't know anything about her, but she must have been a really good girlfriend to him. If he wanted to spend his life with her, he must of loved her. I mean, he says that her soul will never grow old, and that its evergreen. It is a beautiful song.

When we get there, we are greeted by a very ecstatic Sean, just getting out of his dad's car. "Hey! Rose! Riele!" He races over to us. "Look!" He shows us a bucket. It has a blue bottom and the side is red.

"Whoa," Riele says sarcastically. "So cool. You're really getting into character aren't you?"

He rolls his eyes. "I want to see if we can use it as a prop."

"It's very cool," I say. "Very Jasper."

"Thanks! That's what I thought, too."

"Let's just go inside," Riele seems really annoyed for some reason.

"Bye mom! I'll call you when we're done with the meeting."

"Bye! Have fun." She drives off.

We all go inside. As soon as we get inside, however, we are escorted into the table reading room. I sit in the seat that I am assigned. It's right in between Matthew Zhang and Nathan Kress.

Jace is here. I want to go over and ask him why he wasn't at school, but I don't think I'm allowed to get up. He's sitting by Cooper. Dan and Dana are sitting at the head of the table. Dan is looking at his phone. Dana is watching everyone come in, making sure everyone is here before they begin.

"Alright I believe everyone is here, Dan," Dana says.

"Cool," he looks up from his phone. "So, we called you all to come here because," he pauses, dramatically. "Season 1 is done!"

We all cheer and hug each other. I laugh and hug Matthew. He laughs, too. "Finally!" He says.

"I know! I'm kinda sad it's over, though."

"Hey! It's just season 1. It's not like the show is ending."

"True," I laugh even harder. I realize that Dan is filming everyone with is phone.

After about 10 minutes, everyone calms down a little. Dana starts talking now, "Okay, okay. We are really excited, too! Now, down to business. Today, before all of us can go home, we have to shoot a new theme song video! The following people will need to stay: Jace Norman, Cooper Barns, Ella Anderson, Riele Downs, Sean Ray Fox, Micheal D. Cohen, Rosetta Harley, and obviously Dan and I. I guess everyone else can go now."

Everyone that Dana didn't call stands up to leave. I can't believe it. I'm going to be in the theme song video! This is awesome. This means that I will be in more scenes.

"Congrats!" Micheal comes over to me, talking in is Schowz voice.

"Yeah. You too." He goes over to Cooper. I keep watching them, for I have nothing else to do. Suddenly, they start doing the dance that they did in "Super Volcano." My first episode. I look away as they fall onto the ground, laughing.

"Hey," says a hoarse Jace. He casually slides up to me.

"Hi. You weren't at school today." I reply. "But, I can hear why."

"Yep. Doctor says I shouldn't talk."

"Then, why are you?"

"Good point." He smiles, and something in me gets warm and tingly. I can't help but smile back. I look around. Only 9 people are left, including me.

"Okay everyone let's head to the sets," Dan announces. We all follow him out the door.
