( Jordy's POV )

So many bright lights. Cameras at every corner. People everywhere. Their eyes gaze boldly at me. I felt my throat dry up. It's suddenly hard to breathe. All these tension in the air makes me feel nauseous. I hear footsteps walking towards me. Who could it be? I turned to face a pale-skinned, blonde boy with a pair of ocean blue eyes piercing right through my chestnut brown ones. It's Niall!

Smiling, he moves closer. He gently pulls me in, both of his hands around my waist. His eyes never lost contact with mine. My insides were in chaos. I was shaking. His hand moved up to my face. Slowly caressing my right cheek calming me down. Leaning in, he placed his hand on my chin. His lips were now hovering mine. We were both breathing hard. He moved even closer so that there was no space between us and then--

"Jordy, get up! You have your final recital today! Get up, honey!" "Ughhhhh mom!" "It's already 7am sweetie. I cooked some breakfast. Come on!" mom said. "Ohhh... okay. I'm coming down in a bit." I got up but my eyes were still a bit lazy. My mom left. "Agghhh" I groaned. I can't believe it was all just a dream! I swear it was so real to me. Everything was so clear. It's as if I was in the movies. It felt like heaven-- until my mom woke me up that is. "Agghhh" I groaned again before starting to prepare for the day.

Riley called and told me he can't walk with me to school because he had a prior appointment with an old friend who was going to watch our recital. I can't bring my parents because they have a business trip to Italy today. This is the first time that they will not see me perform. But I understand. It's all good.

As I was walking alone, I observed the traffic. There were a lot of cars out this early today. I think I know why. It's because of the audition. My heart was suddenly filled with sadness. I would love to be in that MV. But I know that I'm not good enough. My thoughts were interrupted. "Ow!" an unfamiliar voice shouted. "Oh! I'm so sorry!" I apologized to her as it appeared that I have stepped on her foot. "It's okay, don't worry about it." she said. "I'm really so sorry..." I saw her wearing a 1D bracelet. "Are you going to audition?" I immediately asked her. "Yes, I am! How did you know? I'm Ally by the way." she replied. "I'm Jordy, nice to meet you. I read about it online and saw your cute bracelet so... I kinda guessed that." I said. "Oh thanks! I made this! Anyway, are you coming too?" she asked me. "No." I simply replied. "But why? You seem to be a fan." "Yes, yes I am but you see uhm... I have  my final recital today so..." I kinda lied to her. Well, I did lie. That wasn't really my reason. I just didn't want to tell her. She might just laugh at me. And with that, we continued walking together.

We finally arrived at my school. "So uhm, Ally, this is my school. Thanks for walking with me. Good luck!" I smiled at her and waved good bye. She waved back and said "Thanks! Good luck on your exam too!" And she continued walking.

I opened the door to the dance studio. My friends were already there except Riley. "Hey, Jordy!" they all greeted me. "Hey! Is Ri here yet?" I asked. "Nope." "We thought he was with you." And they all looked confused. I was confused as well so I thought of calling him up. I pulled out my phone from my pocket. Then I realized he sent me a message.

From: Riley Hart

Hey, I will be late for rehearsals. I'll see you later! :)

I got worried. I shook my head in disbelief. He hasn't been late before. I'm sure he has a good reason though. "We'll review the routine. Wanna join us?" Paige asked me dearly. "Sure!" I answered. And we danced away the rest of the hour.

It's only 10 minutes until our final exam slash recital. We were all dressed up in our pretty costumes. I styled their hair. Paige did my make up because I didn't really know how to put some color on my face. I told you, I'm a potato.

Riley storms in, all dressed up for the recital. His hair was messy though. "Riley!" I called him. As soon as he saw me, he awkwardly kept the papers he was holding. I didn't mind though. I needed to style his hair. "Let me fix your hair." I told him. "Okay" he simply said and sat down. What's he hiding? Why is he hiding something from me? All I know is that I have to find that out.
