Lily PoV Mr. Lanson wanted to see me and I went to him. "You're one of my best students and I want to offer you this!" He told me and gave me a folder of Juilliard. I started to get nervous. I promised Lucas and Megh that we would go to New Rome as a group. I've been thinking about Juilliard and wanted to go, but this was something I promised my friends. "My friends." I said snd he nodded. "I know friends are important, but I don't want to see a talent like you to get wasted. You have it all and I'm sure you'll get a contract. Just think about it. It's your choice, not your friends." He said and putted the folder in my bag. I walked to lunch and I was lost in thoughts. "What's up with you?" Lucas asked me, I nodded. "Are you daydreaming?" Peter asked, I really wasn't paying attention. "Hey." Megh said and laid her hand on my shoulder and I jumped up. "What's wrong?" Elijah asked. "Nothing, just nothing." I said quickly. "There clearly is something. Saw a fine guy?" He asked and winked. "I'm just hungry." I told them and took Lucas his fries. "She can take your fries and I not?" Juliana asked Lucas angry. "You'll get my next ones." He told her and she pouted, he took it from me and gave it to her. "Give me money then." I demanded and he sighed, he gave me money. I walked to the food and all the fries were gone, I groaned in frustration. "You want fries?" Somebody asked and I turned around, Jake stood there. He's a good friend of mine. "Yeah..." I mumbled and he smiled. "Take mine, I don't want them. I saw pizza." He said and I smiled. "Thanks!" I said and payed them. I had some change, but I kept it. I sat down and started at my fries. "The change." Lucas demanded. "There wasn't." I told him, he chuckled. He held his hand out and I sighed loudly. I gave it and he took it. I was gonna miss this if I went to Juilliard. Maybe I should be honest and tell them about it, friends do that right? "I can't wait to college, we are gonna go to parties do college stuff and no parents." Megh said and Adam gave her an high five, they were all so excited. I stayed quiet. Soon it was almost the end of the year and I was in a big dilemma. I couldn't choose at all. I came late to lunch and sat down. Juliana took Lucas his fries and I sighed, I took my bag and pulled my money out and went to pay it. I came back and they were looking at the folder of Juilliard. I quickly snatched it out of Lucas his hands, he glared at me. "What about our plans?" He asked me angry. "Mr. Lanson only gave it to me, I don't know what to do." I told them honestly. "You're interested?!" Megh asked me shocked, I looked down. "That's not cool." She mumbled and left, so did the rest staring at me.
I drove home and my parents were making dinner. "They found out." I said ad sat down, they turned to me. "And?" Dad asked. "They're angry at me and they're ignoring me." I said and he sighed. "That's not right for them to do." He said and mom nodded. "It's about your future and we don't want you to choose something that you don't like because your friends tell you so." Mom said and she was right. "Well my decision is made then, it's a bummer that I had to lose them." I said and they hugged me. Elijah wasn't angry at me and he stayed with me. We sat alone and the others kept on staring, Elijah doesn't like people staring at him. "Stop the staring, I know I'm beautiful but honey please." He told them and they rolled their eyes. "They're just jealous, we are about to become big stars." He said and I nodded, he's going to Juilliard too.
We had a big performance for the last time, the guy from Juilliard was here and I was nervous. My brother and sister and their friends were her and mine weren't. Still mad, and I'm mad at them now. This was so important for me and they don't support me. I had female lead and Elijah male.
My solo was big and really hard, I practiced for weeks and the audience went wild. The guy from Juilliard was so happy with us, he took me and Elijah. We went to Calypsos and I saw my old friends there. "This is awkward." I mumbled and James pushed me further. "Big round for this one here!!" He exclaimed, pointing at me. "Somebody killed it and got accepted!!" Juliet exclaimed and took me in a side hug. "Party!" Ben exclaimed and his mom slapped him against his head. My old friends were staring. "Omg, if you get famous make sure I meet Shawn!" Phoebe squealed and James glared. "There are other clients here, have some respect please!" Juliana snapped, we were the only ones here. "We don't like you guys!" Juliet told her. "Guys..." Mom warned. "Truth must be known!" James protested. "Just sit down!" Juliana told him and he glared at her. "Shut up, kiddo!" He snapped and she looked pale. "Well when your 'famous' I'll be the president of America!" Juliana joked and I glared. "What do you mean?" I asked. "Not like you gonna be famous, you need talent for that first!" She said and they snickered. The next thing that happened, I'm not proud on. Let just say it neared three girls. Juliana and her two friends. "Holy..." I heard Ben mumbled. "Stop it!" Phoebe exclaimed and it was like I was frozen. "Somebody that says something bad about Lily again will deal with me." She snapped and we all separate. "Now all sit down and listen to me and if you don't I'll do something." She treat and we all sat down. "You are supposed to be friends. I see friends as people that accept you and stand after every decision I make. So in this whole situation you are the one that made the mistake. I know you made plans, but she isn't happy with those. I rather see a friend happy then unhappy. So stop the glaring and the dirty looks, because karma is a bitch!" Phoebe told them and James jumped up. "That's my girl!" He exclaimed and they gave each a high five. My old friends stormed out, idiots... It was prom and I went with Elijah. I had this on

All eyes were on us and we smiled at each other. I pulled him to the dance floor and we went loose. It was fun just dancing with him, he was my best friend and also my only. It was time for the prom queen and king, me and Lucas. Juliana glared at me and I smiled at her. I took Lucas his hand and he laid his arms on my waist. "You look beautiful." He told me and I shrugged. "You aren't going to talk to me." He told me and I sighed. "You guys are angry in me without a reason. I just don't..." He cut me off by pressing his lips against mine. I wanted to pull him closer, but what we were doing wasn't right. I pushed him off and he frowned. "I just can't..." I told him and run home...
