Michelle's pov

"What do you have first?" Thalia asks as she grabs a drink from the fridge.
"I think I have dance" I say
"Ohh same!" She cheers.
"Yay! Least I'll know someone"
"Oh Amanda does dance too and Steph and hunter" she drifts off as she speaks.
"Did you guys all stay friends afterwards?" I ask quietly
"Steph and James had a massive falling out an as far as I've heard they haven't spoken since. Basically Steph left the group and dumped hunter obviously. Me and Amanda didn't associate with them till the end of high school and the boys have stuck together. Mostly the girls drifted off"
"Oh" I say. I don't care anyways I just had to know.
"We should probably get ready for dance now" Thalia says.
"Yeah you right"
I walk over to my closet and grab my white dance shorts and pink dance shirt an quickly change. I also grab a white zip up jacket.
"Should I tie my hair up?" I ask Thalia.
"Nah" she says.
"Okay" I grab my white ballet flat shoes and go to my bed.
"Ready?" She asks.
"Yeap" I say.

As we're walking I get nervous. If she says all those people are doing dance, I wonder who else is.
"Do you know when auditions are for the competitive team?" Thalia asks.
"Today. After class actually" I say.
"God I'm nervous"
"Yeah. Me too"
We walk into class and I look around.
Steph. Amanda. Hunter. All there.
"How many dance classes are there?" I ask.
"There's our one and another class. They split it into two"
"Oh okay" I say

Basically class went like this.
Thalia sat next to Amanda who sat next to Hunter who kept staring at me. Stephanie sat with some girls opposite us and kept looking at me. When we had to buddy up Steph tried coming to me but I went over to some random.
Now it's free period.
"Well that was an interesting first lesson" Thalia says as we walk over to another dance studio for our Elite dance crew auditions
"Yeah" I say
We arrive in the building where the auditions are being held and it's like a wave of high school memories hit me. I see Riley and Emily together. I see West and Hunter. Amanda walks in. I'm speechless. I thought I could get away from them.
"Uh"
"Michelle? You alright?" Thalia asks me. I blink away the tears that formed.
"Yeah" I sigh "I'm fine"
I sit down alone and stretch. I have no idea hat they've got planned, but I'm gonna be ready.
"Alright,alright,alright. Welcome everyone for the Elite dance crew. The only crew on campus that competes in regional and national competitions. This year we are look for fine, fresh and fierce talents. I am head choreographer, my lovely assistant is in charge of paper work. One of you will get to be the dance captain but for now let's get auditions rolling"
The whole room erupts with cheers the feeling is over whelming. I'm so excited I just want to dance.
I stand up to join the group of people but as I look towards the door I see a familiar face. A face I never thought I'd have to see again. My breath gets stuck in the back of my throat. I can't believe this is happening.
We make eye contact. I think I'm going to cry. His jaw drops as he takes a double take.
This can't be happening right now.
