Sorry for not updating in a while...❤️
Henry's PoV
"ALLFFFIIIIIEEEEE!"
Yelled Richelle, as he picked her up and swung her around in the air. She giggled before burrowing her head head into his shoulder. What the HECK was that?! From my position on the sidelines, I watched as Alfie set her down and they continued to talk to each other.
"What was that?"
Said Latroy in my ear. I turned to face him, he was staring at me confused. I shrugged my shoulders
"I don't....I don't really know.."
Well hey! It was the truth! I had no idea why Richelle was hugging Alfie.
"Well you are a great help!"
Said Sloane sarcastically. Hey! When did she join the conversation? Actually no wait....I look around again. We are now surrounded by all of A troupe apart from Noah. I flinch back and look around at everyone in confusion. I place my hands out in front of me.
"Hey! Hey! Hold up! When did you guys get here?!"
I say surprised.
"When you started gossiping, duh!"
Said Amy rolling her eyes, smiling. Huh. Her eyes are actually really prett....snap out of it Henry! I shook my head before looking back at the source of our conversation.
There slap bang in the middle, they stood. Richelle's hand slightly resting on his upper arm, both smiling at each other idiotically. There smiles so wide they could almost be forced and fake.
"I wonder what happened to make them like that...."
Said Amanda quietly. I wonder?... I mean yesterday they hardly glanced in each other's direction and now....well now they can't keep their hands of each other. From the corner of my eye I suddenly saw something....
I turned my head to look at it. Or him. Sat on the bench a little further down was Noah. I peered past Amy's beautiful...shiny....luxurious....hazelnut heaven....perfect-stop it Henry! Let's start that again! I looked past Amy's hair and over to Noah. His face was set as he stared intensely at....at- I look to where he is looking- Alfie? Why is he looking at Alfie? I look back at him. His eyes were small and his eyebrows were furrowed in anger. Anger? I let my eyes linger down his body. First thing I notice, is his clenched fists. He was clenching them so hard that I could see his knuckles were turning white, and also the veins on his arm were starting to pop out. I've never seen him like this before...
"What's up with him?..."
Said Sloane confused. Huh. Since when had they been staring at Noah. Like she had read my mind, Amy answered.
"You didn't think we'd notice you staring in a completely different direction from the rest of us"
Yeah. I really need to work on that.....
"So what's up with him? Do you think?.....no! He can't be!"
Said Sloane looking over in Noah's direction. I turned to look at her.
"What do you mean?"
I said. I could feel my eyebrows furrow in confusion. She looked down at her hands. Pulling at her fingers back and forth she looked back up.
"Well...he could be umm......jealous"
What?! I looked back over to Noah. Well I suppose he does kinda of look....well...like he wants to be in Alfie's position right now.
"Jealous of what? Jealous of Alfie? Jealous that Richelle's screaming out Alfie's name and not his. Pshh! Of course he's not jealous...."
Said Latroy in disbelief. However It was clearly evident in his voice that he was unsure of himself. There was a view quiet moments as we all pondered over what Latroy had said. I let my eyes, once again drift over to Richelle and Alfie.
Still they stood in the middle of the studio. Both still infatuated with each other-there eyes wide with happiness. I watched as Alfie said something and Richelle burst out in laughter, slapping a hand down onto his chest. While doing so a piece of her hair fell in front of her face. I watched, shocked as Alfie picked it up and placed it behind her ear, looking lovingly into her eyes. Their laughter stopped then. Only to be replaced with quietness as they looked into each other's eyes. They slowly started to move in closer.....oh god! No! They aren't going to kiss, are they?! I hesitantly looked around at everyone only to also see them looking expectantly at the scene in front of them.
"Oh HELL no!
Yelled Noah. He quickly got up from the bench and walked over to Richelle. He harshly knocked Alfie on his side, making him tumble over his feet and nearly fall to the ground.
"What are you doing?!"
Yelled Richelle angrily. She crossed her hands in front of chest and tapped her foot against the ground. Oh she is angry!
"What am I doing?!"
Said Noah in disbelief, pointing at himself.
"What are you doing?!"
He said angrily, moving his hand from pointing at himself, to point at her. She huffed before rolling her eyes.
"Have you got eyes Noah?"
She said sarcastically.
"Well I know certainly that you do! So surely you could have seen that me and Alfie were talking!"
Her voice rose with every word.
"That was not talking"
Said Noah in disbelief.
"If that wasn't talking Noah, then what was it, huh!"
Said Richelle angrily, tapping her foot rapidly against the wooden floor. The noise vibrated around the room. This is getting thrilling! I can hardly take my eyes away from them. Noah looked at her with disbelief.
"That wasn't talking! That was FLIRTING!"
There was quiet in the studio. So Sloane was right! Noah is jealous!
"Ha! I knew it!"
Yelled out Sloane. We all turned to look at her including Noah and Richelle. She quickly cowarded under our gazes and whispered
"Oh whoops! Did I say that out loud?"
She said quietly. I nodded my head towards her and I noticed her cheeks started to ting with redness. Anyway back to the good stuff...
"Noah.....why do you care if me and Alfie were flirting?"
Said Richelle slowly. This was a far cry from her attitude only a few minutes ago.
"It doesn't matter..."
Said Noah mumbling as he looked towards the ground. I think I know the reason...
Richelle uncrossed her arms before placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Noah?...."
She said softly. Noah looked up from the ground, staring deeply into her eyes. It was deadly quiet. We didn't dare speak and miss out on what they may say. After a few minutes, Noah still hadn't spoke. He just continued to stare at her. Oh come on Noah! I'm getting impatient and by the looks of it so is Richelle....
"Noah! Say something!"
She said frustrated. Noah didn't say a word. She huffed before crossing her arms again.
"What is up with you?! First you interrupt my conversation with Alfie and now....well now you won't speak to me! I swear to god if you don't say say a word in the next five seconds I will-"
She was cut off short by Noah, as he grabbed her by her waist and planted his lips onto hers. There was a collective gasp. Go Noah! He finally plucked up the courage to do it! To kiss Richelle! Why the HECK do I feel so proud for him?
I let out a cat call, copying Latroy who done one only minutes ago, before joining in with the celebrations.
"Woo go Nochelle!"
Yelled Amy happily. Nochelle? I turned to her confused.
"What's Nochelle?"
I asked her. She turned to face me, her dark brown hair whipping her slightly in the face.
"It's a combination of their names. Noah-NO and Richelle-CHELLE. Us girls came up with it after we saw them do a duet together. Aren't they cute"
She said happily, joining her hands together and bringing them up to her face. I looked over to Noah and Richelle, who were standing in the centre of the studio. Richelle had uncrossed her arms, resting them now on Noah's chest. Whereas Noah had his hands still on Richelle's hip. They were kissing with so much passion that I'm afraid that in a few more minutes it may become a little uncomfortable to watch. Ew! Don't picture it Henry! Anyway even though there is that...I guess you could call them....cute.
I watched as Alfie walked around the happy couple, walking over to us and sitting in any empty beside me. He looked happily towards the couple before uttering.
"I'm so glad that worked......a few more minutes and I could have been kissing Richelle."
All talking stopped as we took in Alfie's words.
"What do you mean?"
Asked Michelle confused. Alfie turned to look at her.
"Oh yeah I forgot....it was supposed to be secret. Well I guess it doesn't matter now"
Alfie waved a hand in front of him. What does he mean?
"Richelle came to me yesterday after practise in need of some help"
Okay I can't believe I'm saying this....but I think I'm more confused than before.
"What kind of help?"
Asked Sloane confused, her eyebrows furrowed. Alfie let out a laugh before looking back to Noah and Richelle.
"She said she wanted to make someone jealous.....she told me the person wouldn't like it and would probably do something unreasonable....never ever did I expect it to be Noah though. Christ! He can push hard! I think I'm getting some bruises."
Said Alfie rubbing his side. That sly goat! So it was all a plan. Well they fooled me.
"You fooled me dude! I genuinely thought you had a crush on Richelle"
Alfie let out a laugh, shaking his head and looking down at the ground.
"Nah dude! I don't think anyone can have a crush on Richelle now. Especially with Noah around!"
He said pointing over to Noah and Richelle. They had finally broke from there kiss and we're now giggling to each other. There foreheads together, and bodies incredibly close. Richelle was on her tippy toes, while Noah's hand was wrapped around her waist, holding her up. We all watched as the laughed to each other through heavy breathing before Noah muttered.
"Umm...would you...would you like to go get a smoothie."
Haha yes! Go Noah! You asked her out! Way to go dude! Richelle closed her eyes for a minute before nodding her head and looking into his eyes.
"Of course"
She said with a smile, letting out a giggle. Noah quickly gathered her into a hug. Lifting her of the ground and spinning her around. There were more cheers of joy from us.
Well today was eventful! We now have our very first romance as a newly formed a troupe. Whoop whoop! Hopefully their relationship won't affect the team though. Well just have to wait and see...
Anyway congratulations to Nochelle!
