Harry's POV
"So we have many amazing dancers here. Our seniors win every competition they attend and are often offered roles on television shows or photoshoots that require dancers." A lady, who introduced herself as Maya said. "I'm sure they're all fanastic. Obviously we need a senior because they have the best technique and are closer to the boy's age." Simon said. I hope we don't get some stuck up bitch as our back-up dancer. "She needs to be good at all styles not just one particular type if dance." Hmm. I wonder who they will pick. We've already seen the audition tapes from all the seniors a few weeks ago, today we are here to observe them in class. If they are horrible at cooperation and can't learn fast then they will not be chosen, simple.
'Maybe it's the way she walked
straight into my heart and stole it
through the doors and past the guards
just like she already owned it'
"Guys, why is our song playing?" I ask, facing Maya and tilting my head to the side. "One of our students must be in the studio. Sometimes if they're early they like to rehearse." I really want to see who it is. Looking at the schedule on the wall, only seniors have class around this time so it must be one of them. "Can we go check it out?" Niall says, his voice full of curiosity. " Of course, follow me." Maya leads us to the studio and opens the door so we can shuffle inside. When I see her my jaw drops. She is goreous, but looks young, and short. Very short. Why would a young girl be here when there are only senior classes. There is no way she is over 18. Watching her dance a smile creeps over my face. She is an amazing dancer. She is twirling and spinning around for what seems like years on one leg and does all the flips. When she leaps she looks like she is flying. "That's Amelia. She just moved here from Sydney a few weeks ago, and started dancing here last week. She takes all senior classes even though she is only 16." That explains why she looks young, and why she is so talented. When the song finishes she bows. Who is she bowing to? Us? No, she doesn't know that we are watching her yet. At that very moment Amelia turned around. "Hi we're One Direction." Us boys say all at once.
Her eyes widen and her mouth forms a small 'O' shape. "She is beautiful." Liam whispers to Zayn, only it wasn't really quiet enough to be a whisper. Zayn nods his head in agreement. I walk over to where Amelia is standing in the centre of the room. "Hi I'm Harry Styles." I say followed by the rest of the boys and Simon introducing themselves. "Uh, I'm um Amelia Smith. Were you watching me that whole time?" She asks sounding very, very worried and concerned. Maya answers for us. "Almost. They heard 'Best song ever' and came running." Maya giggles. Amelia just looks shocked.
Amelia's POV
I can't believe they are here. In the same room as me. Breathing the same air as I am. "That was wonderful dancing Amelia." Simon complimented me. "Oh, um thanks." I stutter, surprised I said anything at all. I am still very shocked. Then Maya says "Amelia, maybe you should explain to the boys about your life and how dance fits into it."
"Er, well um, I just moved from Sydney because my dad got a new job here. I spend most of my time here at the studio. I take senior ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary, acro, cheerleading, flex, modern and acting. I take junior hip hop and teach sub-junior tap, jazz and contemporary. I teach to help pay for all the classes and I don't have time to work anywhere else. I really love to dance." I say. I hope I didn't talk too fast. I always talk too quickly and I go even faster when I'm nervous. "That was fast." Louis says, making my hert sink to my stomach. They probably think I'm some crazy person who can't talk. "Don't worry, I understood." Liam said with a wink, making my heart flutter. " Sorry, I talk a bit fast." I feel a bit more relaxed now.
After talking with Simon, Maya and the boys for a while I discover they are here to choose a senior to be their backup dancer. Maya explains to them why I take senior classes, speaking far too highly of me. "Maybe you should show them another dance, one with lots of emotion. But make it quick because class will start shortly. I run over and place my phone in the docking station. I play the song 'Cry' by Alexx Calise. I dance around the room, doing 10 pirrouettes in a row. I finish the dance with a side aerial and covering my face with my hands, like I am crying. They all clap loudly for me. Harry even whistles. Wow! They actually like my dancing.
