What If? {A jiley fanfiction}

What If James Would Have Cared?

Riley POV:
James will always be an idiot, and I just need to get over that. As West tries to encourage James, as he walks up to do his audition, I see James glance at me, but the look in his eyes isn't the look of a joker, or someone who hates me and is trying to ruin me, it's the look of someone who is actually sorry. But I hardly believe that.
    He puts his head down and continues walking slowly. I cant cope, so I decide to remove myself from the situation. I run out of the room, grabbing my jacket and water. Kate probably called me, but all I can hear is ringing in my ear, and I feel like I'm going to pass out. I push open the double doors, and as soon as I hear them close, I lean against the wall, and my mind starts clogging up with all sorts of worries and stress related situations that I cant handle. I slide down the wall until I am sat on the floor with my head in my hands, shaking and panicking.

James POV:
When I'm in the centre of the studio, ready to do my audition, I suddenly feel really pumped, like, this girl isn't going to ruin my chances of getting into A Troupe and even maybe getting the solo at Carmichaels.
    I hear the music begin to blast, the beats and the rhythm, and I automatically just start smiling, an feeding off the energy of the music. I hear Eldon and West start cheering and shouting for me, so I add in a turn, to give them a smile of appreciation.
    But when I am finishing the turn, I see something, and everything crumbles apart. My smile, my energy, and I stop dancing, causing Chloe to pause the music, puzzled. Riley isn't standing there. She didn't want to watch my audition. No, no, no, she made the effort to remove herself from the room so she wouldn't have to watch me dance.
    I'm filled with this streak of rage and anger that I just walk out of the room, barging through the middle of Eldon and Noah. I fling open the door just to see her lying there. Is she asleep or something?
"Riley do you even know why I did what I did, or are you just jumping to conclusions? Yeah, because I actually watched your audition because I have respect for you- Riley?" She isn't moving. I crouch down and start shaking her and panicking. I never panic.
"Miss Kate!" I shout, still shaking her, hoping she will wake up, "MISS KATE!"
She runs in, and I see the look on her face, and she is startled and almost breathless. "Riley? Can you hear me? RILEY?! Okay James I'm going to need you to call the ambulance and I'll be right back I promise."
What's going on? Has she passed out? Or had a panic attack? Or is she- is she dead?
