Summer Nights City Lights

Chapter 2

Margarets POV

As I watched Sean he looked at me through the mirror making blush a deep red. Ugh I held my cheeks. No Margaret you will not fall for him. At the end of the video everyone was starting to pack up. "Hey Margaret we are gonna stay in the studio till 9 to work on a choreography in the studio behind this one ok?" My brother said smiling. "Ok but wait who are you gonna be with again?" I asked and all of a sudden I heard voices behind me. "He'll be with us." One of the guys said. I think his name was Gabe. He smiled at me and I smiled back. "Hi I'm Gabe De Guzman" he said sticking his hand out. "Hi I'm Margaret Anderson nice to meet you." "Wait are you a dancer you look very familiar?" "Huh me? Oh Uhm n-no" I said taking my hand out of his slowly. Aiden and Jack looked at me with questioning looks and I gave them a look that said "please don't tell them." They nodded and rode their hover boards to the other studio without a word. "I'm Kenneth nice to meet you Margaret." He smiled and shook my hand. "Say you do look like a dancer!" He said and I smiled. I looked at Sean and smirked. "I think we've already met." He chuckled and stuck his hand out. "I'm Sean Lew" I smiled shaking it. "You staying tonight?" I asked and he smiled. "Maybe. You?" "Well I kinda have to." I smiled. He chuckled. "HEY GUYS STOP FLIRTING LETS GO DANCE!" Kenneth said grabbing Sean pulling him towards the door that connects 2 of the dance studios. I looked at Sean and he mouthed "help me" and I laughed. I stayed in the studio and looked around. I spun and then came face to face with my reflection. I looked into it and it's like I can see myself coaching the junior team and teaching them a new choreo I made or learned. I sighed and turned around. I entered the studio where the guys were and I saw them already making a bit of the dance. "What song are you guys doing?" I asked. "Welcome to my hood by DJ Khalid" Sean said smiling. "I love that song" I laughed remembering a choreo I made with Kareena to that song. My smile faded but I shook it off. "Jack where's your bag?" I asked him. On the bench in the other studio why?" He asked. "I think I left my wallet in there when I put my uhm stuff in there" I said. He nodded understanding that by stuff I meant my shoes. I walked back to the other studio and found his bag. I went to grab my wallet but as I reached in I pulled out my shoes by accident. "Shit" I cursed quietly putting them back but before I could I looked at them. Before I knew it I took my boots off and replaced them with my dance shoes. I was wearing a tight white and grey striped crop top, leggings and a blue flannel around my waist. I grabbed my phone and looked at myself in the mirror. I sighed "maybe just one more dance" I whispered to myself and chose a mashup of songs I made which included Welcome to my Hood like the boys did. I started warming up. It felt weird. We have been living here for 2 weeks and I haven't danced then. This is the last time I'm ever dancing I thought. I connected my phone to the remix i had made for my favourite competition which we won. I got into where I had to start and Bitch Better Have My Money by Rihanna started playing. I sighed before I started the first move. The song suddenly changed to Dessert by Dawin and I changed my position. Then Welcome to my Hood played and all my amazing memories came back. Me and Kareena dancing came to my mind as I danced. I did the last move and finished it strong and emotional. I was sweating and I looked at myself in the mirror and heard clapping from the door. "SEE I TOLD YOU GUYS ITS 5 TIME WORLD OF DANCE CHAMPION MARGARET ANDERSON!" BahBoy yelled proud and I looked at him with wide eyes. "Margaret Uhm Aiden kinda told us everything. Why aren't you dancing anymore?" Gabe asked. Tears started to form in my eyes and I ran out the door. "Margaret wait!" I heard Sean yell but I ignored him. I ran up the stairs to wherever the hell it would take me. I honestly couldn't care less. Tears were streaming down my face and I opened the door revealing the rooftop. I ran to the side almost falling off the edge. I sat on the ledge sobbing. I just wanna go home. "M-Margaret?" I heard the door open. "Go away..." I sobbed. "No Margaret" I looked up and saw Sean! I turned away looking towards the city. "I look gross" I said. "No you don't." I looked at my shoes and Sean came closer to me. "Sean please-" I started but he wrapped his strong arms around me. His minty scent filled my nose and I sobbed into his chest. "I-I'm sorry. I should have never danced in the first place." I whispered to him. "Hey stop that. Margaret you are an amazing dancer and I know that your crew would want you to keep on dancing. Not stop because they are not with you. It would kill them if their captain was already giving up." He said to me. My sobs stopped and all that was left were quiet tears and small hiccups. "Sean it doesn't feel the same." "Hey I know it doesn't feel the same but I'm gonna help you through this. I may have only met you today but I know that you are an incredible dancer that has her whole life in front of her." He said rubbing my back. "Thank you Sean. For everything" I said and pulled away from the hug. "Wanna go back downstairs? It's only 6pm and the guys and I are gonna still dance. You can join us if you want." He said giving me a small smiled slightly showing his dimples. I sighed "I-i don't know if I'm ready yet..." "Hey it's ok. You can watch your brother if you want." "Yeah I will. Thank you." Oh yeah here's my number." Sean said handing me a piece of paper. "If you need me. You know what to do." He smiled. "Thank you so much." I smiled. Before I knew what I was doing I leaned in and kissed his cheek. "L-let's go back down" Sean stuttered blushing and looking down at his feet. I giggled slightly "yeah let's go" I smiled and grabbed his hand once again feeling sparks go off.
