DAY OF COMPETITION

Alessia's pov
The convention is still going on, even though we need to leave for the competition, but obviously, we can't. Our moms, JoJo and Nia are already at the competition, but we're gonna be late

"So where is everyone else?" Holly asks

"They're still at JUMP" Melissa tells her

"Are they coming?" Jess asks

"They're coming, but they're coming late" I tell them

| Kendall, Kalani, Ale, Maddie, Mackenzie are supposed to be at Starbound Competition. However, they're still at the convention JUMP. Abby thinks JUMP is very important. However, they have to be at this competition because it's the last competition in Pittsburgh. | Melissa Ziegler

"Abby told us this was arranged a month ago, that our kids could come to this competition late." Melissa tells Holly and Jess while I'm on my phone trying to get ahold of Ale to see when they're going to be here but no response. They must be in the middle of something

"She never told me. Did she tell you?" Holly asks Jess

"I assumed JUMP was Saturday." Jess says

"I was told it was Saturday, not Sunday. Sunday we were supposed to do this competition." Holly states

"I wasn't told either way, but I asked. She apparently thought she had it worked out." Kira speaks up before the Candy Apples come over.

Cathy's annoying little voice just kept talking. Then Jess tells Cathy everything which wasn't needed. Then Abby comes over and Cathy asks Abby about the whole things and Abby ignores her

| JUMP is a multi day workshop where these amazing teachers teach master classes. Now, JUMP, is running late, but we have a reputation to uphold. My reputation to uphold. And those girls are not gonna walk out and embarrass me. | Abby Lee Miller

Then Jess asks if Abby texted Kira to not tell Jess about the whole JUMP thing. This whole thing turned into a huge argument, and right in front of the other two teams. Then finally these two teams left. Our team is definitely fractured.

Holly and Jess then stormed off leaving the rest of us moms and Abby.

"Ignorant fools!" Holly yells at us

"She's a bitch" Jess tells Holly

"Oh my God" Kira rolls her eyes. The four of us moms continue to talk before heading to the dressing room. We then went in and Holly and Jess were already there.

Jess seemed mad that we didn't ask if JoJo and Nia were going to JUMP, but how were we supposed to know they weren't. We figured all the girls would go. I didn't ask Jill or Kira or Melissa if their girls were going either.

"Abby, are we gonna have to pull the solos?" Jill asks once Abby comes in. "Maybe when the girls do get here though, they'll let them perform out of sequence, is that an option?" She asks and Abby shrugs

Then Gianna brings JoJo and Nia in.

"You okay, babe?" Melissa whispers to me when she noticed I have my head down

"This dang baby is gonna be the death of me. He won't stop kicking" I complain and she rubs my back

"Okay, when opportunity knocks, you have to be ready. That's part of your training at the Abby Lee Dance Company. So, this is your opportunity. I thought all of our soloists were going to be here, and they're not. You will be going in for Kalani" Abby tells Nia. "You will be going in for Kendall" she tells JoJo. "Big shoes to fill"
