Ria's POV

We kept on tailing tyra after school, we decided , that is Harry and I, it would be easier just following one of them, as they would both lead to the same place and of course tyra was the practical choice.

I was surprised when we came to a dead end it was in form of a ballet studio, what could be tyra doing here. Maybe she came to see someone, tyra doesn't really strike me as a person that wears tutu and dance around a stage, but who knows anyway, I and tyra haven't be that close for a while, I don't even know what's she going through at home, and I felt sad at this knowledge, I haven't been a very good friend.

"So harry, do you suppose we enter?" I asked
"Guess so, there is no harm in it, and besides we are, already here." He replied ever pragmatic.
So I pushed open the door and to my disbelief tyra was in a tutu and so was phillip, well not exactly for phillip, he was in a spandex.
All of us were frozen in shock, not knowing what to do. Do we go back and pretend nothing happened or what?.

It seems phillip was the one to break the ice.
"Hey harry, brie, what are you guys doing here ?" phillip asked
"I could say the same for you guys" harry replied
"We practice here" phillip answered
"Practice what?" I asked, the first thing I said since walking through the door.
"Ballet" tyra replied
I couldn't stop looking at tyra, was our friendship going to survive this, would she call me vain and selfish for poking into her affairs. And to have thought she was dating phillip, this goes way beyond.

Tyra walked towards me, I noticed with my peripheral vision that harry and phillip had walked away. I didn't know for how long I stared at tyra, but I just didn't know what to say.
"Am sorry for not telling you" tyra said
"Am sorry for nosing around your affairs" I said
"Its OK,"
"Thanks, are we still friends?" I asked still unsure.
"Yeah we are still friends" she said
"By the way you know you look cute in a tutu" I said, happy that we were still friends
"It's not a tutu" she said
"Its a what then?" I asked
"Its a ballet uniform" she replied
"Yeah, keep deceiving yourself" I snickered
"Serious" and we both laughed, the tension seeping out of both of us.
"So what made you start dancing?" I asked ,I was curious
"Its what I love doing, I stopped for a while, just to spite my mum , then I realized that am cutting off my nose to spite my face,so I decided to start again"

"So your mum didn't want you to dance?" I asked, i was quite confused now
"Not that was the major problem,that was the only thing my mum ever agreed on about me, so I decided to quit"
"Ohh now I get, it's nice that you like dancing. so why didn't you tell me?"
"Am sorry for not telling you, its just that, it doesn't really go with the Gothic image I was going for" she replied
"I understand, its cool any ways"
"Yeah thanks" and she hugged me, it was nice having my friend back. So that missing piece of the puzzle.
" what's phillip doing here?"I really wanted to know
"He's also here to dance"

"What!!" I was sure my eyebrows were at the top of my fore head with that exclamation. I knew I saw him in a spandex, but Philip was a muscular dude. For Christ sakes, he was on the football team.
"Don't be surprised, some people like dancing" tyra said
"Sure, but am certain there is more to it"
"Yeah there is" tyra replied, she was leading me on a merry chase, she should just spill the beans.
"Are you going to tell me?" I asked
"Yes I will"
"You can start" I was already exasperated with tyra.
"Come closer" she said, and she whispered it into my ear. Boy was I surprised.

A week later

Harry's POV

As I sat down in Spanish class, my mind drifted back to last week happenings, i was still in shock, phillip taking ballet classes, in all my years of knowing phillip, he was an epitome of manliness, no offence to guy dancers, but it kinda hurt knowing my friend didn't trust me enough to tell me what he was going through.
My mind drifted towards the conversation we had.

"Hey harry, can we talk for a sec ?" Phillip asked
"Yeah sure" I was still in shock
"Am sorry for not telling you" he said
"I thought we were best friends"
"Yeah, we are, we still are,but I didn't know how to tell you"
"Why ballet, why dancing, there is nothing wrong with it, but am curious to know"
"You know mum and dad divorced recently"
"Yeah I know, it was kind of rough on you" that was a classic understatement, when they divorced, phillip was devastated, and to top the cake, they were considering who to take him , as though he was he piece of property, he still hasn't forgiven them yet.
"Well, I started seeing a shrink"
"I didn't know that"
"No one does"
phillip was a trust fund brat, and he had a whole lot of money ,besides when his parents got a divorce phillip chose to get emancipated, so all his parents do is give him monthly allowance, so if he wanted to hire a shrink on his own, he had the means.
" OK, so what did the shrink say"
"She said I was depressed, and that had lead to my anger problem"
Yeah, for a while back then phillip was a walking time bomb, he was angry at everything and nothing at the same time.
"I still don't understand how this has got to do with ballet dancing" I said a little perplexed.
"She said I needed an outlet for my anger, and gave me a few options and dancing was part of it, the ballet was what I settled upon".
" ohh, its OK, no problem man. I got your back"
"Thanks"
It was nice to have my nest friend back.

I was startled out of my mental reverie by the Spanish teacher, it would seem our essay scripts has been graded, my Spanish has greatly improved thanks to ria, but I was far from being perfect. I got my script and it was am A minus, it was an improvement from C ,but I wasn't still satisfied, but was happy with this. I couldn't wait to show ria.

It was soon lunch time, I quickly left the class and headed towards my locker, in hopes of seeing ria around and its seems I was destined to be disappointed. I then saw brie walking towards me, oh no this can't be good, I don't feel like talking to brie any time in the century, so I did what any self respecting male would do in this kind of situation, I ran.

It would seem my luck has deserted me, cause I ran towards a secluded area with no means of escape except to talk to brie.
"Hello Harry,could we talk please?" She asked
"Hello Brianna, no I really don't won't to" I said, it was all in the past and I didn't want it to be brought up again.
"Am sorry, I won't take much of your time" she pleaded
"OK, what do you want to talk about"I wanted this conversation done and over with.
" I want to apologize for what happened before"
"Isn't that a bit too late" this was so cliche of her
"I know, but still I am sorry and I want us to go back to and start again" she said pleadingly
Brie really wasn't a bad person, just a selfish one, I dot know what her game is but am betting it has something to do with Prescott magazine.
"There is nothing to go back to but, your apology is accepted" I said only to notice brie standing very close to me.

Ria's POV

I still didn't know the meaning of this new feelings I was developing for harry, I am just happy any time he's around,and I can't stop thinking about him, in fact am doing it again. It was lunch time already and it felt as though a long time has passed since I saw him, I seriously needed to clear my head. Walking towards the cafeteria, I saw the one person I didn't need to see right now.
"Hey beautiful" Eric said,he still doesn't get that flattery would get him no where with me, but it was nice being complimented.
"Hey douche bag and bye" turning to walk the other way.
"Ouch that hurts, you know?" He said with fake disappointment
"No I don't, so just leave me alone" I replied I was in a hurry to see harry, but cause of douche bag here I was walking the opposite way .

"You know I won't, so what do you say go out with me tonight" he asked, but my mid was focused on the scene in front of me, and it was a highly captivating one, Brianna and Harry were kiss in each other, and I was frozen on the spot.
Harry broke off the kiss and noticed me standing and watching them, I just didn't know what to do, my mind had shut down.
