Pirouette

Chapter Eighteen // Ketchup Face

- Bethany's POV -

The first hip hop class was over and I actually really enjoyed it, I thought I would despise everything about this academy.

"Hey Cody, do you know who Kim is? Ella keeps messaging me" I asked while looking down at my phone, he snatched my phone from my hand and read the text message.

"Oh yeah, she's the quiet one" He said before handing it back to me. I sighed, that really helped.

"Isn't she suppose to be in this class?" I said before noticing that Cody had walked on without me.

I approached the hop hop instructor Louise and asked her if Kim was a part of this class.

"Yes she is, do you know where she's got to?" She asked, I shook my head.

"My friend Ella is looking for her as we speak" I explained, Cody called me from outside the studio as I was taking too long. He doesn't like to wait.

"We don't have another class today, why don't we go to the beach?!" Cody said excitedly while throwing his arm around me, I pushed him off and laughed.

"We have that assignment to work on.."

"Wow! When did you start to care about dancing?" Cody said before stepping backwards in shock, I rolled my eyes.

"I wanna show that bitch Alison that other people can win" I said while rubbing my hands together deviously. Cody laughed and agreed with me.

"Let's book a studio for an hours time, first I need some grub!" He shouted before running down the corridor and out the door to the cafe. It's going to take us a long time preparing a dance, I have a partner with the mind of a 10 year old.

"Hey Ella have you found her yet? Our hip hop teacher was worried x" I sent the text to Ella then caught up with Cody, he was ordering a hotdog and a large coca cola.

"Dude, if we're going to dance later you'll be sick" I said when I approached him, he shrugged his shoulders and payed the lady.

Hayden, another guy from first year was sitting alone on one of the tables. Cody brought his food over to where Hayden was sitting and sat down facing him.

"You alright lad?" Cody asked before digging into his hotdog, I joined them.

"Uh, not really" Hayden said with a sigh.

"What's up?" I asked before taking a sip of Cody's drink, he stared at me angrily.

"I upset somebody from our class and now I can't find her.." Hayden explained. Someone who is hard to find... Sounds like Kim.

"Oh wow, that's so weird because Ella is running around looking for some girl named Kim" I told him, Cody nodded with ketchup all over his face.

"Yeah I know, that's who I upset" Hayden said with a frown.

"Let me guess.. She asked you on a date and you turned her down, because all the girls are head over heels in the academy for you" I said while waving my hands in the air, Cody and Hayden looked at each other then back at me.

"Are you declaring your love for me Bethany?" Hayden asked with a smirk, my face dropped. Maybe that came out wrong..

"In your dreams" I laughed.

"I better go, my contemporary class starts soon" Hayden said before grabbing his bags and running off.

"Bye!!" Cody shouted with a mouth full of hotdog, I shook my head in embarrassment at the state of him.
