JENNY'S POV

I couldn't help but grin stupidly as I continue to hug Zach. My cheeks flushed as Chelsea, Addi and Abi start making kissy faces and the boys wolf whistle. I'd caught what Zach's parents said, I was the perfect girl for Zach. All of a sudden, I feel long nails dig into my forearm and tear me away from Zach. I fall over onto my butt and groan before looking up. I let tears flow down my cheeks as I ran out of Studio A. I run straight into the Music Room. Amber was the cruellest person I've ever met. We used to be best friends when we were little, Amber was nice and energetic. She would get dirty and run around without a care in the world. Amber and I were put into dance lessons at the age of five and a couple years later, Amber changed. She became an elegant dancer and all the pride went to her head. Amber became arrogant, she could manipulate anyone to do anything for her. She always got what she wanted and I was frightened. And this is what I get for standing up to her, for telling her that she couldn't have it all. I hear soft squeaks of shoes against the hardwood floors.

"Amber, I swear to god if you've come to mock me. I get it! You get everything you want including my crush. So congratulations, you've got your prize. Now leave me alone." I snap before letting a painful sob tear through my body.

"Jewel..." My heart skips a beat. I stood up and turn around, wiping my tears. Zach's hazel eyes shine as he stood there, his cheeks lightly pink and his hair a bit untidy. I shake my head quietly before attempting to walk out. Zach's warm hand reaches for mine and he yanks me towards him, our lips crashing. My stomach does a million backflips and I place my hands on the back of his neck. He wraps his arms around my waist and pulls me closer, a soft burning spreading through my skin. We pull away and we rest our foreheads against each other while I rest my hands on his chest.

"God, you're so beautiful." Zach brushes a stray hair behind my ear as he speaks breathlessly.

"Do you love me?" I blurt without thinking. Zach kisses me softly before smiling.

"Does that answer your question?"

CHELSEA'S POV

As Zach and Jenny walk back into Studio A, hand in hand, I knew that everything would be okay. If my parents' relationship could push through the drama, Zach and Jenny's can and so can A-Troupe. Zach and Jenny both deserved each other and I knew Zach would never do anything to hurt his Jewel. I watch as Jenny and Zach muck around, giggling and side hugging. Amber rushes up to the couple lividly.

"Why the hell would you want to date this freak?!" I don't understand how this could be Micheldon's daughter. They are both kind people, they always do what is right. Then there is Amber, arrogant and displeasing as well as manipulative and plain nasty. Nicky is a complete angel in a tomboy's beat up sneakers and Bryce wasn't too bad. I mean he is bad, but not very bad.

"I'm not dating her yet, I wish I was because she is so beautiful and kind and passionate. Jenny has the most beautiful eyes and smile. She has an amazing laugh and she's extremely funny and easy to get along with. I don't like you, Amber, you're cruel and uncivil. Jenny's the opposite of you and I love her." Amber storms off as the boys whistle. "Jewel, will you be my girlfriend?" The team stands around the two anxiously waiting, even though the answer was quite evident.

"Yes." Jenny squeals and giggles as Zach picks her up and spins her around.

"Finally! Only took you ten years." Laura, Lily, Jacinta and Rebecca walk in as Laura notes the blushing couple.

"Yeah, finally." Jenny sighs, kissing Zach on the cheek.

"Ew, Jach (J-a-k) cooties!" Poppy laughs as some of the baby ballet kids come into the room.

"Chelsea Grace Tordjman!" Jenny complains, getting ready to charge me. Cierra and Piper walk in and Jenny hides her shyness. Amber quickly jogs in, standing beside her brother.

"Drumroll please." Piper jokes and we start banging our hands on the wooden floors. "Ladies and gentlemen, our new dance captain is..." Amber smirks, getting ready to step forth. "Chelsea!" Amber's smirk drops as my team hugs and congratulates me.

"Good job, babe. You deserve it." Bryce humorously punches my shoulder.

"Do not call me babe." I scowl but laugh quickly afterwards. "Thanks idiot." I thank him before Piper calls.

"Drinks are on me in celebration of the new dance captain." The team whoops and heads to Joelle's.
