Rehearsals Part 1

Everything was going to be alright.

Everything was going to be fine.

At least that's what I thought, until the day came when everything changed.

I walked along the corridors of my school, looking for Dylan.

He was the only person that I wanted to talk to, the person I needed to see.
I just wanted to be close to him for some reason.

I stretched my neck, trying to catch a glimpse of him. Unfortunately, he was nowhere to be found.

Then, Ysa walked up to me, interrupting my search and greeted me with a hug. "Hey" she said "are you alright?"

I knew what she really wanted to ask me. But instead of telling her what I was really feeling, I gave her a weak smile and said "yes I'm fine"

Out of the corner of my eye I saw Daisy approach us. I waved her over and she began walking speedily towards us.

"Hey guys" she said excitedly. "Why are you so happy?" Ysa groaned.
"Be nice miss grumpy pants" I scolded her.

Daisy decided to ignore Ysa and continued "they posted the people who would be in the play on the billboards today, official news!"

I grinned widely, "and... I'm guessing you got in?" I asked her. "Not only that! We all got in!" she exclaimed, jumping around with joy.

"Woah... take a chill pill Daz" Ysa told her, still looking pretty grumpy.

"What do you mean by... we "all" got in?" I asked Daisy feeling rather nervous.

"I took a shot of the list of people, here take a look" she told me while handing me her cellphone.

I scrolled through the list

I couldn't read anymore after that. Knowing that I had to act with Lilly and Oliver chilled me to the bone.

I was in shock, I couldn't believe it. I slowly handed Daisy her phone.

"Jennifer? Are you OK? You're looking a little pale" she asked me worriedly.

"I'm fine" I told her, forcing a smile on my face.
I had a feeling it was more of a grimace because Daisy gave me a look that said "I don't believe you"

"Seriously, I'm fine" I insisted and gave a nervous chuckle. It was obvious that she still didn't believe me but thankfully she didn't push the matter.

There was a moment of awkward silence, and then Greg crept up behind Ysa and yelled out "BOO!"

Ysa gave out a strangled yelp and turned around to catch her perpetrator.

When she saw it was Greg she slapped him on the head. "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" she yelled at him, looking pissed. "Ow, sorry geez, I didn't think you'd react that way" he told her, grinning ruefully while rubbing his head.

Ysa huffed and walked away from him, looking rather dramatic.

Daisy and I laughed at her exuberance and at Greg's pouting face.

We watched in amusement as he chased after her yelling stuff like "I'm sorry" or " I didn't mean it!"

Once they were out of sight I started laughing my heart out, leaning against Daisy for support. "Did you... see? His...face AHAHAHA"
