B5 Just Dance, Unrequited Love Story

Part 14: If Only You Knew

Elisha

Roo ended rehearsal early because Kelly disappeared and left his phone in the studio so we couldn't contact him. So now I was at the twins house just sitting on the couch in the dark. It's been probably three hours since I got back but I was too baffled by Kelly's reaction to really think or do more than what I was doing now.

What had I done to tick him off so much? The constant question running through my head, I checked my text to see if he could have possibly misread something I said. The last time he replied to me was the day after Silent Disco right before I gave my phone to Leo so that he could talk to my Aunt. The texts were innocent, just a bunch of mindless flirting really. Nothing in the text could possibly have been misunderstood, yet there had to be a problem. The last thing I said to him when we were face to face was something about how cute he was being. Where did we go wrong?

I headed back home after searching for Kelly for about a half hour. Dustin went to chill with Jayden, Loissa, and her family. Carnell and Bryan said they'd search a little more for Kelly before they came home too.

Not at all surprised I found Kelly in his room laying on his bed in a funk. I didn't care though, I was pissed he abandoned the rehearsal. I threw his phone at him, I landed hard on his stomach he yelled out in shock and pain. Satisfied with myself I walked down the hall to my room and texted my bros Roo and Latasha to let them know I found Kelly at home.

I dropped my rehearsal gear off in my room and headed down stairs to help mom with dinner.

Elisha

I was shocked to find out Kelly was home, I took that as him being seriously ticked off, for what I'm still at a loss over. I exhaled aggravated at the situation and put my phone down, no longer in hopes of receiving any explanation from Kelly.

Being slumped on the couch soon became uncomfortable and cradling my head in my bended knees felt more confronting when I was lost.

The jingling keys in the door must slipped past my perception as Leo enter the house cheerfully.

"Honey, I'm home," he jokingly says. He sees my demeanor in the dimly lit room and speaks, "hey you ok E," he asks walking over. I sigh in response. "I take it rehearsal didn't go well," he says a bit sarcastically.

"There barely was a rehearsal," I mutter.

I can feel him hovering over me, "uh-oh, what happened?"

I keep my head cradled in my knees, "I don't know."

"Then why are you moping around in a dark room, kind of Emo if you ask me."

"For your information no one asked you, and I'm not moping, moping consist of moving. I am sulking."

"Wow you must be in a bad mood, you only become the grammar police when your being the mean Emo."

"I'm more than one Emo," I ask feigning curiosity.

"Yeah, well it's more like 3 stages of Elisha the Emo, first there's grumpy mean, then depressed crybaby," he explains.

"Hey I resent that," I cut him off.

"Then there's, lazy 'who cares its the end of the world' Elisha the Emo. I'm particularly not a fan of any of them,"he says sitting next to me on the couch.

"Well whatever," I reply gruffly.

"No but seriously what's going on Elisha?"

I sigh again and look at him before giving a brief anecdote. "The boys came to rehearse with us today, I tried to talk to Kelly, he walked away without even trying to give me the time of day. He left the studio so our choreographer canceled the rest of rehearsal."

"Oh, him. Gosh isn't he full of drama. Why couldn't y'all carry on the rehearsal without him? I mean, it's not like he's the whole group. Couldn't y'all just work around him?" Leo rambled.

I shrugged, "I don't know, I guess. Roo canceled and no one objected. Plus everyone went to go look for him. So, I don't know, I guess that was the deciding factor."

"Oh," was his response.

Leo

So technically I'm the reason Elisha's being Emo, I calculate. I didn't mean for it to go this far, but actually at the time I did. Damn, that was such a stupid move, now that I think about it. Melody f**ked me over, and Elisha's Aunt was in my ear, quite literally talking about how Elisha and I could be the perfect couple, she didn't say those words exactly but. Everything that was going on was leading me to do the foul sh*t I did.

I left Elisha alone on the couch telling her I'd make her some food to make her feel better. Man I hope this doesn't go to far. F**k I should tell her what happened.

I hear her groan when I turn on the kitchen light, she's definitely in Emo mode, I need to fix this.
