Chapter 22-Confident

Madison's P.O.V

I was sitting on a chair, watching as they danced and in some strange way, I felt jealous when Justin kept touching Dallas. I know that they were just dancing and I also know that Dallas will forever have a thing for Hunter, but I was strangely still jealous. At some point, I had the urge to go pull them apart from each others.

Pull it together, Madison.

I have been watching them for a while now as they danced, Dallas suddenly stopped, her eyes widened and she quickly ran off stage. I frowned and quickly ran after her feeling worried. I rushed after her into the bathroom, I found her kneeled down while throwing up in the toilet. I scrunched my nose slightly, but quickly ran towards her. I held back her long brown hair while soothing her back.

"Is she okay?" I heard his husky voice from behind me.

"She's throwing her guts out and your seriously asking me that? " I said giving him a blank look, he just rolled his eyes at me.

"Dee, are you okay?" I asked kneeling down and hugging her from behind.

"My stomach hurts so bad" she cried clutching her stomach and then suddenly puked again.

"Call the doctor or something" I said looking at Justin in panic.

He quickly pulled out his phone and started dialling the doctor's number as I kept trying to comfort Dallas. Maybe I'm not that bad at comforting people, I'm actually good at comforting the people I love. But when it comes to Justin, it's like there's something always pulling me back. Like there's an invisible line, that if I crossed everything between will only turn into total awkwardness.

I was cut off my train of thoughts, when Dallas cried in pain. I hugged her tighter putting my hands on her stomach trying to make the pain somehow disappear. I hated seeing any of the people I love in pain.

"The doctor is on his way, but the concert is gonna start at any given second, Maddie" I heard Justin say nervously from behind me.

"What am I supposed to do? Leave my best friend in pain? " I yelled feeling panicked that Dallas was still crying in pain.

"Call Hunter, I need him, you go take my place, Maddie" Dallas said weakly.

"But, Dallas-"

"No, buts, just go already"

"Do I really have to dance with him?" I asked dramatically only for Dallas and Justin to roll their eyes at me.

"Go" she demanded leaving me no room for arguing.

Justin grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the bathroom quickly, I didn't even have to ask Hunter to go for Dallas, the second I stepped outside the bathroom, he was already rushing in there with worry written all over his face.

"Damn it" I heard Justin hiss from beside me when we reached the side of the stage.

"What?" I asked confused.

"I forgot that you didn't practice the dance not even once" he said frowning.

"Well, don't worry about that" I said smirking at him.

"What do you mean?" He asked still dumbfounded.

"I mean that I've been watching you guys dance and I already picked up on the routine" I said confidently with a casual shrug.

"What about your outfit? The only last outfit we had Dallas was wearing it and-" he scrunched up his nose in disgust and so did I.

"Maybe we should wear something different from the other dancers, we could match" I suggested only for him to smirk at me.
