"Can't you guys get any worse than the junior team?!" Ms. James rages, the music cutting off while we stopped to catch our breaths. We definitely needed a break, we were dancing for 2 hours straight for fucks sake!
"Olivia, what the hell was that jump, huh?! You can go high than that! So do it! I swear if we lose at our home terf you all will pay." Gulp. Why is she actually scary right now?
Can she even threaten us like this?
"All of you but Bellamy, Rhia, and Carmella get out of my sight. NOW!" Everyone runs out the room except for Rhia, Carmella, and I. Once everyone is out the room Ms. James grumbles, running her hands down her face before turning to us.
"Bellamy, your solo on Saturday better be phenomenal, you get anything but first place-"
"I'll be getting first place ma'am," I stated confidently, cutting her off. She stares at me and I start to think I made a mistake cutting her off, until she smiles at me.
"I like that mindset kid." She gives a stern nod before looking at Rhia.
"Tomorrow we're going over the duet one final time, one fuck up and you're done, your spot will immediately be taken," Rhia swallows hard before nodding.
"And you'll never be part of a duet, nor will you have a solo for long time." Wait, that's not fair! Even if she does mess up in class that doesn't mean she will on stage.
"Carmella, be prepared to take her spot tomorrow," She said, Carmella smiled sweetly and nodded. Fake bitch.
"You three are dismissed."
"Oh it's over!! Bellamy I can't do this! I should just give Carmella my spot before I embarrass myself in class tomorrow!" Rhia stresses, I sigh and turn off the music.
"Rhia, you can't let anything get to your head. If you think too much about it then you're going to mess up. Take a deep breath," I instructed, and she listened, "Exhale," She exhaled, I smiled, "And let's do this again," I told her, she gives me a sad look.
"I can't, Bella," She looks away, "I want to able to do duets and solos in the future, I want Ms. James to be proud of me for once, that's all I ever wanted ever since I came here, I want her to treat me the way she treats you and Carmella...I want that..." She looks at me, her eyes glistened with tears.
"Oh Rhia..." I walk up to her and wrap my arms around her. She's is only 15, she shouldn't be feeling like this at all. She is such a wonderful dancer, she should never feel this...defeated.
"You're an amazing dancer Rhi, everybody but that old bitch can see it, and you're the youngest one on the team and happen to be better than most of the seniors," I told her truthfully, she chuckles lightly.
"But not better than you and Carmella," Her voice is muffled against my neck.
"But if you think about it, once we leave you will be the best in class," I pulled away, keeping my hands on her shoulders and smiling down at her.
