I dream of the excited fans at the stage door, waving playbills and phones.

*Maddie pov*

I wake up to Bennys Dispatch, rolling out of bed and going to my dresser. I pull out a long sleeved sweater and black leggings. I pull them on in and grab an apple before running to Lins car. I hop in and throw my bag on the floor. "Hey little laf! Ready for school?" He asks, patting me on the shoulder. "Can one ever be ready for school?" I respond, wrapping my arms around my black hoodie.

We drive to school, making small jokes and talking. He drops me off in the front of  the school and i make my way to my locker. I find my friends and steal a protein bar from my rehearsal snack stash, eating it in the way to homeroom. I sit with Riley, practicing for our French open dialouge today. We have to sit for a minute, talking only in French, which is quite hard under pressure.

We do pretty well, so we just sit and talk. The announcements come on, and they mention a winter dance, coincidentally called the winters ball this year. We both laugh at the name, but his face continues to smile. I hope he isn't planning anything, I hate being the center of attention. We go off to first, second and third period, but he leaves me for fourth period.

We come back together at fifth period and have to bear the dreaded open dialogue. Riley goes third with some guy in our class, and I'm not until the end. I get paired with one of the guys that sits across the room. I begin. "Salut, je m'appelle Madeleine. Tu t'appelles  comment?" "Enchantée, Madeleine. Je m'appelle Jean. Tu as quel age?" (There is no circumflex accent?) "J'ai seize ans. Et toi?" *

We continue on like that until the unbearable speech is over. I sit back down, confident that I did well. Riley and i go to lunch, but he sits with a few of his other friends that are in our sixth period class. We meet up after lunch and he looks giddy. We go to our lockers, and i save us a seat in class, since we pick our own. He sits next to me and we get through the class.

6th period roles into resource and Riley gets up a few minutes into it. I look up and see him in front of me. "My dearest, Maddie. Everyone will be dancing with the band top volume, so do you want to go to the winters ball with me? We can be the envy of all." He asks and i stand up, hugging him. "Of course, ry. I'm helpless when om with you." I say, giggling.

We head our separate ways, snapchatting each other. I get home and do my homework, then help my parents make dinner. We at the delicious chicken that i taught them how to make. We watch Farris Buelers Day Off and hang out until I fall asleep.
