"5,6,7,8!" I yelled as my team danced to the final choreo I made for them. 3 years to fix them were all a blur. My life as a Choreographer, Captain, Teacher, and Dancer here was amazing but not seeing my family for this long?... What kind of daughter/friend would I be? I haven't talked to any of them for 3 years but my family. My brother started competing again. My mother and father never changed. They are still working like crazy. Gabe is probably the biggest ladies man, Kenneth is probably still with Kayla, and Sean... I don't know... I never forgot about him though... I kept my promise... Did he forget his? I glanced down at my wrist staring at the bracelet that I've had for years now. I felt my lips curl into a smile and I stared at my black leather Jordan Eclipse. I sighed and looked up at my crew. They just stared at me and smiled.

"Thinking about him again?" Kareena asked and I gave a shy smile. I heard the double doors burst open and slam shut and I noticed Marc has left. I rolled my eyes and looked at her.

"Seriously it's been four years and he can't get over it. What a douche." I scoffed and the rest of the crew laughed. The last competition is tomorrow and it's already 9 pm. Jesus we've been working on everything for 8 hours. Practice was supposed to end 3 hours ago but here we are working out asses off on a hot ass summer night. We've been working non-stop ever since school ended. I still have one more damn year to go.

"Earth to Margaret?" Kareena waved her hand in front of my face and I jumped slightly making her laugh.

"We wanted to give you something." Kareena smiled and I gave her a confused look. She handed me a red envelope and everyone turned towards me as I opened it. I ripped open the gold seal gently and opened the card making something float down. I picked it up and instantly my eyes widened at the sight in front of me. I looked at the card and squinted my eyes to read the tiny hand written letter. Everyone has left a simple comment like

We'll miss you tons

We love you

And stuff like that. I finally read the finally message that was in the middle of the gold card.

Thank you for dealing with our shit and making our dreams possible again. It's time for us to return the favour. We want you to be with your family again. So have fun in California!

Tears welled up in my eyes and I stood up and hugged the life out of Kareena. Everyone joined in on the hug as I cried and held on to the green plane ticket in my hand.

"You guys are crazy." I said and they laughed before letting me go.

"Thank you so much." I said and "no problems" were heard around the studio. I hugged Kareena one last time before looking at the ticket. I leave the day after the competition.

"Girl you better start packing! you leave soon." Maia winked at me and I laughed.

"LETS WIN THIS SHIT TOMORROW!" I yelled and they cheered as loud as they could. I can't wait to see everyone again.
