A/N: just a heads up , Ella still stole Riley's solo at Internationals ...

Riley's POV:
"I always said scowling doesn't suit you ?"

What the hell is ELLA doing here . I don't even want to think of her name . How dare she have the cheek to turn up out if nowhere and say something like that . How dare she ...

"What are doing here ?" I sternly say .

" I came here to make amends" an with that I think I got sick in my throat . Literally.

"Oh please ! If you want me to become best friends again then your six years to late . "

I start to close the door but Ella puts her foot in the way .

"Look Riley , I know I hurt you but I realised what I did was wrong and I also think that you deserve this more than me " she pulls out something that I never thought I would ever see . It's the Miss International Soloist Award that Ella stole with my choreography.

"What made you change your mind ?"

"I heard you won Regionals with your and James studio . And I thought that this would motivate your dancers ."

I can't say anything I'm in complete shock . Why after all these years would she just decide that she was going to give me the trophy .

"What's the catch ?" I simply ask .

"There is no catch . I just realised how much of a bitch I was to you , and almost destroying your relationship with James ."

"Well actually you brought us closer than ever . At least something good came out of you being at the studio ." James who came out of nowhere says and wraps his arms around my waist .

"Well I should get going and leave Ye to it ."

And she just limbs away . There's something wrong with her left leg and I am going to get to the bottom of it .

James goes up to check out what furniture we need to buy. I log onto my computer. I load Google and I search 'Ella Smith'. I click on an article that was uploaded two and a half years ago. It reads :

'Last week , Miss Internationals Soloist 2015 , Ella Smith injured herself while doing a front arial at a competition in the south of London with her team. It was announced through Instagram that she has a 3rd degree hamstring tear in her left leg. It was also said that she will not be returning to dance due to the severity of her injury . It is a sad day for the dance world to see such a talented dancer like Ella Smith throw away her dreams of being a professional dancer '

I am so flabbergasted. As much as I hate Ella for betraying myself and the team , I would never wish that extent of an injury on someone. I guess it made her realise how much of a bitch she was to us ...

But I forgive her ....
