Briar's pov
I wake up to the sound of my alarm clock buzzing. Wait that was a dream? Me and Myles aren't together? Stupid dream! Why couldn't it have been real? Dance is in half an hour! I have to get up!

Once me and Abbey were in the car, I got a text from Myles. I'm not sure what was the dream and what wasn't. I'd better check with Abbey.

"Abbey what did I say to Myles yesterday?" I ask.
"You admitted that you love him to his face." She replies.
"Shit!" I say.
"Why didn't you stop me?" I yell.
"You needed to tell him so me and Jessy let you." She says.
"I have just ruined my friendship with Myles." I say.
"Oh Briar don't worry about it." She says.
"We're here!" My mum yells.

Me and Abbey step out of the car and enter the large building after saying goodbye to our mum. Abbey goes off to see Devon and leaves me alone. I decide to go inside the music room. No one is in there. This is a great opportunity to clear my thoughts by dancing a solo.

I plug my phone into the speakers and start playing How Deep Is Your Love. I really like this song and I can really dance how I feel. As I'm dancing I hear the door creek.

I turn around but keep dancing to see who it is. Guess who? The last person I want to see. That's right. Myles was standing there. He was just watching me. He didn't say a word or move a muscle. Why is he even here? I don't want to talk about what I said to him yesterday. Then the worst thing happens. The song ends.

I walk up to the speakers and unplug my phone. Then I grab my water bottle and take a big swig of water. He taps me on the shoulder so I turn around. Here we go.
"That was amazing." He says.
"Thanks." I say.
"I need to tell you how I feel." He says.
This is it. He's going to tell me that he loves me.
"I don't like you in that way." He says.
Wait what? I feel my face turn bright red.
"Well um we'd better go to class." I say and run out into studio A.

Myles soon enters after me and then Alain comes up to us.
"Myles and Briar it's time for us to see your duet." Alain says.
This is the worst moment to do our duet.
"Ok." I say and give Jessy my 'help me' face. She shrugs her shoulders. Wow thanks.

Me and Myles get into our starting positions and then the music starts playing. We put in a lot of every dance style. However, we start with a big over head lift which everyone claps at. Everyone except Abi. Me and Myles start dancing our acro section and I do lots of flips. So does he.

At the end of the duet, everyone is on their feet clapping. I put on a fake smile and just ignored Myles. He kept giving me his 'sorry' face but I tried not to look. I wish that everything turned out like it did in my dream but I have to always take a reality check. I'm never going to be with Myles because he loves Abi. That's too bad.
