A dancer, A dare, A new life

chapter 11

^ That's Jade ^

Ashley is in book club after school and Jacob will be in the schools studio practicing since he can't afford our local studio. So I have to walk home by myself. I pull out my MP3 player most of my music is dance music I can't stand that new pop music. The most common music I have is rap it's really fun to improv and just move to the beat of the music. So I pull out my headphones and hoble along the street listening to my music. I trip and fall about five times before getting home. I grab a snack and jump up the stairs with my crutches. I finish the rest of my homework and turn on my tv. I look over at the edge of my closest were my dance pile lays. It has my sport's bra, exercise leggings, my hoodie, my bag full of dance shoe's, and a water bottle normally I would be dancing with Jacob normally I dance until I can't stand the pain. Soon all these voices start screaming in my head normally I dance through the voices ignore them and keep dancing. At one point the voices started getting to much to the point where I passed out and fell asleep.

I wake up at three am I must have slept through everything once the voices became to much. They started coming back "it'll be alright." "Pay attention." "Where not good with injuries." "She hasn't changed she just got hurt." "I've been there before." "Calm down." I screen "aaaaggggghhhh." I can't stand this "go away go away." I yell into the night air. I fall down the stairs in pain to my studio I limp in pain to the middle of the floor i lay down and cry and scream and gasping for in between each sob the screaming and crying gets rid of the voices.

Before I know it it's six am. I get up and hop up the stairs and take a freezing cold shower to wake myself up. I don't want to eat breakfast so i just get dressed in black leggings and a white tank top with black print written across it saying DANCE. I also throw on a sweat shirt,rain coat scarf, and beanie. I grab my school bag and hop down stairs I grab my boots and say good bye to Tyler. Just like yesterday I trip and fall on my way to school i hang out with Ashley and Jacob. I trip and fall some more. Just a regular day except for PE.

When I get to the class room Jase is already there just average day we talk and do school work towards the end of class I say "your a lot more human then I expected." "what's that supposed to mean?" he asks. "Well when I knew who you were from what I heard you seamed amazing a more then just a person. Your popular your captain of your baseball team. I thought you would never talk to someone like me." I say. He said. "wow I never thought Of myself like that but I can see it a little now. What do you mean I would never talk to someone like you?" I say. "your so popular and I'm really shy I'm a straight A student what do you get B's and C's you party all night and have fun I stay long hours in my studio dancing." "I'm a straight A student to I love learning as much as you do the only reason I go to party's is because my friends say I have to I would much rather be practicing baseball. You know your a lot more human then I thought to." he says. "me, how could I possibly look un-human." I say. He says. "well you get straight A's like its easy. A bunch if guys think your cute. You live off of dance It seems like you just live your life and you think no one knows that you exist but we do notice you. The world see's you. You can't act like the world doesn't you because we do." he says. The school bell rings before I can say anything so I quickly say "thanks." and head out the door.

He quickly catches up to me and says "hey Jade how do you get home?"
" I have to walk my mom and dad are at work and there's no bus stop close enough."
"well don't you have friends to walk with?" he asks.
"no all my friends are busy or don't like me anymore because of my injury." I say.
"what!? That's insane. Anyways can I walk you home? It won't hurt me."
" that would be nice could you?" I say.
"Of course which way is your house?" he says.
"This way follow me." I say.

we walk to my house talking and joking around like old friends. When we get to my house I say "want to stay for dinner? Its pizza night my dads coming home from one of his business trips." I say. he says "Sure just let me check with my parents." we step inside my house and say. "Welcome to my house. Let's head to my room." I then realize that a boy who is my friend is in my house Jase is in my house the guy I've had a crush on forever is in my freaking house. Oh my god. What did I do. He says. "Alright." when we get to my room we sit on my bed and say. "how's your search for that girl on new years eve." he says. "well I get a bunch of random girly girls who say it was them but I just know it couldn't possibly be them." by now I'm laying down and jase is leaning against the wall were both a opposite ends of my bed. "well I say you'll know who it is at the right moment in time." I say. "thanks I needed that." he says. *bing* he checks his phone. "I'm sorry I've got to go its my baseball team." he says. I say "its alright see you tomorrow." "alright bye see you tomorrow." he then leaves.

I watch TV until 7:30 when my dad comes home. Mom picks him up from the airport me and Tyler wait by the door. The door knob twists and incomes Dad. "Dad!" me and Tyler both say. "how are my favorite kids." he says. "where good. I say. Tyler says "we missed you." by now where both in dads arms. We then go into the kitchen and put pizza on our plates and then go to the living room like we always do when ever dad comes home. We talk until its 10 then mom and dad sends us to bed sadly though dad leaves Thursday for another trip. I finish my homework and go to bed around 11.
