Skys pov:
"Hes panicking" i said jogging to the side of the stage so i could see out without anybody seeing me "hes done this before, he will be ok" tayla spoke wrapping her arms around me and hugging me tight "i hope to god hes ok" i breathed crossing my fingers. "I need to see if hes ok" i mumbled trying to spot him through the dark lighting and flashed. Its harder to see them from up here because of being blinded by lights "hes fine or they would of stopped the show" she said shaking my shoulders "listen to me now skylar, hes fine our there where he belongs, dont worry" she spoke sternly. I let out the air i was holding and shook out my hands slightly trying to calm down "positions girls" dani spoke rushing me and tayla to the doors ready to go out on center stage. Ruby and all her gang would be entering later from the sides making me kind of smug that she wasnt getting the spotlight. Ive been kind of paranoid lately because she hasnt been around or spoken to me. She even asked for her own dressing room for her and her girls. Its just weird.
"This is it" tayla squealed smoothing out her white flowing dress. We both had the same white dress on that was tight to out waist line and all loose as it got towards our knees. We had white daps on becoming of how much fuss we made about wearing ballet shoes like the other girls. Our hair was mostly pinned back off our faces and the rest was curled and left to flow down our backs. Whitney had done a beautiful job of our makeup. I have to remember to ask her to do all my makeup whenever i need it. "Ok good luck girls, your on in three two one" a man spoke then pressed a few buttons for the doors to open.
My hand locked with taylas before we made our way out onto the stage one step at a time. The boys were all stood either side of the stage just watching like they were suppose to. My eyes flicked to mitch to see he was smiling making me more relaxed. There was a pause in the music then run by leona lewis came on making us jump right into our contemporary ballet routine. Just as the chorus started, mitch and pel made their way into the middle of the stage to join us. My heart skipped a beat when mitch took my hand to pull me towards him. I smiled lovingly at him as he placed his hands on my hips. Right on cue he lifted me up over his head making me feel like flying once again. Everybody else had disappeared as i danced with mitch. Nobody else mattered, not the boys, not the crowd, nobody. Just me and him.
Mitchs pov:
The show was flying by for me, we had already done seven costume changes and gone through half time. Dani wouldn't let me go see sky during that time because she was apparently having makeup done and i would be distracting. "Im so proud of you" ash said pulling me into him for a hug "im pretty proud myself" i chuckled "i heard about your panic attack under the stage" he said with a little smirk "i was letting the nerves get the best of me" i laughed realising how stupid it was. He just smiled then looked away before we were rushed back to final scene to finish the show.
I was itching to see sky and get to hold her in my arms. Not that i didnt enjoy the show because it was amazing. I just needed her right now. Me and the boys and lined up and held hands behind the doors waiting for our cue to walk onto the stage "this was a great show boys, im so proud of you all for pulling it off so perfectly and with a hell of a lot of pressure, after all i wouldn't be stood right here today without you guys and that says a hell of a lot about our family" ash spoke proudly. Ash was stood in the middle of the line with me an jordan either side of him. Sam had hold of my hand then whilst pel was holding jordans. Warren was next to sam and ike was holding pels hand with terry holding ikes.
"Without you there wouldn't be no show, your the brains behind it all so we are all proud of you, for making another brilliant one of a kind show" jordan smiled making ash grin. The doors started opening then making us all walk out onto the stage and stop at the front of the stage. We all bowed then ash started speaking into his mic "so what you guys think" he asked making all the fans scream "we really do love you guys"ash chuckled then looked down "so i know you guys all know us now but we are going to do the scream for your favourite thing again anyway" ash spoke looking down towards terry "everybody give it up for terry" ash yelled. As usual there was quite a few cheers making terry smile "ok fair amount there terry" ash nodded then turned to ike "what about ike, ladys and gentlemen" ash spoke making about the same amount of cheers run around the arena "not bad" ash nodded. "Ok so lets change sides" he spoke spinning around to look at warren "warren Russel everybody" ash cheered. There was a fare amount cheering making warren the one with the most cheers at the moment "ok what about mr sam craske" ash spoke not even needing to make any effort. The cheers was twice the amount of warrens making sam punch the air and jump up and down. He blew a few kisses out to them then ash gave him a look "shall we ask them about jordan now to knock your ego down a bit" ash said making the crowd go even louder. Sam pouted whilst jordan started celebrating with a silly little dance.
"Now to knock jordans down, give it up for perri kiely" ash yelled. The arena went wild and perri just puffed his afro with a smug look before doing a little bow. I couldn't help but laugh at perris little bows as he made jordan glare at him. He shrugged then took the mic from ash "we clearly know whos the best here dont we" pel smirked then pointed at ash "give it up for ashley banjo because without him there would be no way we would be standing here right now" perri grinned. The cheers were probably just as loud as perris but at the end of the day he deserves it.
"And we are diversity" ash spoke taking the mic back. There was some yelling from down the front so ash leaned down tl try and get what they were saying "how could i of forgotten that" ash sighed shaking his head and standing back up "thank you girls for reminding me" he nodded then looked at me "we are going to take everybody back to our show diversity live back in January, we know it wasnt the best show and a very important member of our family got seriously hurt" he started. The arena went quiet like they were begging to hear this story from the start.
"A slip up in choriography that was totally accidental landed our favourite tricker into a difficult time, it broke the hearts of thousands of fans and broke the spirit of diversity for a long six months" ash continued then took a short breath "our little tricker had crushed a few bones in his neck and gotten some serious injuries in his head resulting in him falling into a deep coma" ash spoke. I could see he was trying not to cry so he kept stopping. Perri had already pressed himself into jordans side and the boys had all come closer in. I felt sam wrap his arms around my shoulders and lean his chin on my head as ash got ready to speak again. "We tried to continue to dance but it was hard to work with what felt like such a small group, our lights had turned off giving us no motivation to continue our jobs, we cancelled festivals, shows, appearences, workshops, lessons and even our butlins tour to make an appearance in his hospital room just so we could see him getting worse every day" he spoke still holding back tears "finally we lost our sam, he moved back home and kept to himself in his room because of the negativity some fans would give him when he walked around the streets, we also found perri slowing down more and more everyday, he wouldn't go home or dance but he made sure to keep a smile on all our faces even though we all knew he was dying inside" ash spoke. Tears were starting to fall down perris face making me kind of sad myself.
"Then one day we got to the hospital to find the doctor had had a conversation with the craskes telling them it was time to let mitch go, it was time to turn his machine off because he wasnt going to get better" he sniffed "we had a few days to say our goodbyes then came the day that we all crammed into the room to see our little man leave us for the last time, the machines got cut off and the heart beat monitor went flat starting off the tears everybody had tried so hard to keep back" ash breathed then a smile come on his face.
"Then a few seconds later we heard the familiar sound of a grouchy morning person telling us to cut the noise out giving us all heart attacks of our own" ash chuckled. I felt a smile came on sams face as he held me tighter to him "he was alive and extremely grouchy can i say, when perri flew onto the bed to tackle his best friend into a hug that wasnt exactly returned" ash spoke still trying to keep a smile on his face. Perri obviously felt this was the right time to run over to me a hug me tight. I smiled and hugged him back just to get perri scowling at me "dont hug me back, its a reenactment" he scowled making me hold my hands up in surrender. The fans all started laughing then lifting the mood in the room.
"The sad part was he didnt have a clue where he was or what he was doing there or even what the boy with big hair was doing on his lap" ash continued as pel went back to jordan "the doctors did some tests and found out he had a case of amnesia making us all fall back into a state of sadness" ash spoke. "We spent the day speaking to him and filling him in on a few things about himself as well as playing a game of guess perris name that was definitely guessed very well, then we found our little man could speak to sam and totally remember his name and everything about him, we sat and listened to the story of sams voice being in his head and pulling him out of the coma" ash explained.
The fans instantly started clapping and cheering sams name making me smile. Now these were true fans "then the work began, we started dance training and struggled through a few hard times, more hospital rooms and those awkward first interviews, we brought some new people into our lives and made sure to keep the old ones" ash grinned then motioned for us to all go to the side of the stage. We all moved then the doors opened again "we got people like Nathan and the danceworks juniors who also helped to make this show a huge hit" ash announced as they walked onto the stage and did a bow before moving over to the other side of the stage "we got keiran and our new group of ladys who were kind enough to help take over bodicias when they could no longer make it" ash spoke. They walked fowards and did thier bows before joining nathan at the side "we also have my mom, whitney kiley, the craskes who all were a huge part in the making of this tour" ash continued.
He introduced everybody and then stopped when i though i was about to see my girl "now we have a very special pair of girls that were on and off stage just a much as us tonight, miss skylar was the dance teacher i had employed to take over teaching at danceworks whilst we wasnt strong enough to work, she was also the person to take on the role of teaching our little man to dance and she sure did, even when i said no more dancing due to unexplained pass outs, she continued to teach and help bring our boy back up to standard, she also brought a friend that helped mr sam back to his old self and we will definitely be giving her a medal for that" ash chuckled.
"Miss sky and miss tayla everybody" ash cheered the the girls walked out with big grins on thier faces. I watched sky bow and smile as she kept holding hands with tayla in the middle of the stage. Her eyes were just alive giving off that glint of sunshine she always manages to being with her everywhere we go. Ash handed sky the mic then walked over to steal my cap and ruffle my messy hair.
"Now can everybody make this room louder than has ever been before, for my man and very special member of diversity, mitchell craske" she smiled looking at me. I couldn't hear the noise and i could hear the boys yelling as well as feel the vibrations running through my body but all i could think about was her.
The word kim spoke to me bedore we broke up came running through my head making me get a blank face that sky instantly picked up on. Did i love sky. All that ran through my head was there was only one way to find out. I had to kiss her and feel those fireworks. I found my feet quickly moving over to her with my arm out stretched to take the mic from her hands. I dropped it on the floor before placing both my hands on the sides of her face and pressing my lips on hers. I knew she was in shock but she instantly responded to my touch, kissing back wih as much love as i was. The cheers only got louder if possible when she grabbed hold of my shirt and pulled me closer to her as fireworks blew up in my head. When we finally pulled away she was in a daze and we were both slightly out of breath. I laughed lightly the wrapped my arms around her shaking body. She was beaming and her legs were slightly like jelly "i need to tell you something" i smiled. She just nodded slightly with her eyes glued to mine.
"Wait wait wait" perri yelled picking the mic up and holding it close to me "now continue" he smiled. I chuckled and shook my head then looked back at sky waiting eagerly for me to speak "i love you sky" i breathed. That was it for her she was completely a mess in my arms "you dont know how long ive waited for you to tell me that, i love you too" she smiled as happy tears formed in her eyes "i love you so fricking much mitchell craske" she grinned before pressing her lips back on mine. There wasnt words to describe how amazing i felt right now. There just wasnt any words.
