~ Next day ~

I was walking through the hallway, thinking about yesterday. How Lucas slipped his hands on my waist, how it made me feel safe. How he called me an amazing dancer while my parents tell me to stop embarrassing myself by dancing. How he hugged me like he missed me.

I was wearing a light grey sweat shirt over my dance bra and leggings over my high waisted spandex. I was now at my locker, grabbing my books out of my locker. I started to walk over to my class, knowing that Missy would be coming soon. But I guess I was walking too fast so I tripped over my own feet. But a pair of hands grabbed my arm before I fell. I looked up to see Lucas. Again. Yay. ( notice the sarcasm )

He helped me up and smiled.

" Um.. Thanks." I said awkwardly.

I started to turn my back to him and walk away but he stopped me.

" Riley, why are you like this?"

I just had a blank face on.

" Like what?" I sassed.

" Why are being popular-" he yelled

" Because I like popular! " I yelled back.

" It's the fake you " he mumbled.

" Excuse you?!" I yelled.

He rolled his eyes.

" Popularity isn't doing good to you. You should stop." He walked away but nudged my shoulder.

I scoffed and walked to my next class. Which Lucas is in. I sat down in my seat and Lucas sat behind me. The class started. Then another class started. Then another class. Then another class. Then another class. And then school was over. I went over to my locker and grabbed a few text books for home work. Lucas tapped my shoulder when I closed my locker. I turned around.

" What do you want now?" I hugged my books.

" Can we start over?"

I stared at him. I can't let go of all the memories I had with him back in 8th grade. I shook my head.

" Why n-"

" Do you really want to just forget the memories we had in 8th grade." I cut him off.

He sighed, shook his head, and walked away. I stood there and stared at him. Why am I making him feel so sad? He entered the boys locker room, I guess there is practice today.

I have to practice my dance anyways so I walk to the studio. Today I don't have the car because my mom is using it for a getaway trip with my dad for a week in California.

I finally get to the dance studio and start to stretch with music blasting out of the speakers.

I then finish my stretches and start to practice my other dance but before I did, I got a text from Lucas.

Hi. Please, I need to talk to you about something important. Meet me on the roof of the school at 7:45pm. - Lucas.

I look at the time and it's 7 o'clock. I have some time to practice my other dance.

( please watch the dance video )

I throw on a light blue sweatshirt and leave my black shorts on. I make my way to the school.
