Shall We Dance

••3•• {She Holds My Career in Her Hands}

"Josh Trevor called you gorgeous?" May asked as we both sat outside on the grass watching the sun set.

"Yes! I'm not lying to you!"

She raised an eyebrow. "Why would someone who looks like a god call my sister gorgeous?"

"Shut up!"

"Okay, okay. He might be right, but he's WAY out of your league."

"I know. It's not going to happen anyway. He's way to much of a player." I gagged.

"Him and Emerald have been together for almost two months! He's not a player!"

I fake-coughed. "We both know that's a lie..."

She rolled her eyes. "You know you're lucky, right? You get to hang out with the coolest people ever!"

"My reflection?" I teased.

"No! You get to WORK with Josh, Emerald, the dance teams..."

"There are a few tough-guys on set though. Emerald told me that the director, Maxwell, is pretty strict."

"About what? The flavor of his coffee?"

I laughed. "I don't know. Emerald told me that I shouldn't mess with him. I don't know what she thinks I'll be doing but..."

May started to laugh. "Hey, if you want to be in the news, you'll have to pull some crap."

"I don't want to be in the news for being scandalous, sis."

"But sometimes that's what you gotta do." She said while shrugging.

We watched the last bits of the sun get lost behind the trees and darkness filled the sky.

"You know what would be really crazy?" May asked.

"What?"

"If you and Josh dated."

We both laughed.

"Like that's going to happen! He may be attractive but not exactly morally attractive. I can't fall for someone like that."

"He has hypnotic attraction, Jess," she chimed.

"Shut up!"

"How many times are you going to tell me to 'shut up' just because you know I'm right?" She sassed.

"I'll stop telling you to 'shut up' when you stop being right."

She grinned. "Which is never."

"Shut up!"

We both laughed as the cool night air blew against us.

What would I do without my sister?

...

"Hello, gorgeous."

I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"Don't you have a girlfriend, Josh?" I asked.

I almost didn't want to ask. It hurt a little bit to know that I wasn't the girl who was kissed by him constantly. That girl was Emerald...

"Emmy? We broke up, gorgeous."

"What?"

"We broke up yesterday. If you were a true fan you would know that-"

"I'm not a true fan of you. I'm into the dancers because they actually possess talent."

"Whoah! You don't think that I have talent? My name is JOSH TREVOR, if you weren't aware."
