Better than Maddie Ziegler

Chapter 10: The truth

"And that is how I dyed my turtle pink." Mackenzie told Brynn.

I was on my phone scrolling through Instagram while Kenzie and Brynn were talking. Maddie was in the front with her eyes fixed on her phone.

I felt kinda left out and even when I tried talking to them Kenzie would just change the topic to something they did without me.

I didn't wanna tell them either because I think there gonna be mad at me.

So I'm here in Melissa's car heading to dance on my phone while Brynn and Kenzie chit chat.

"We're here!" Melissa announced as she parked.

After parking we all opened our doors and got out.

I entered ALDC with a smile on my face because I didn't want anyone to know I was sad.

I went straight to the dancers den to find the other girls warming up.

"Hey guys." I say quietly.

We all greeted each other and started stretching. They were all in there separate conversations and again I felt left out.

I just didn't talk to anyone and stretched in silence.

When I was done stretching I went to Studio A and waited for Abby.

First thing in the morning it was me and Maddie's duet so Maddie and I were the only ones in the studio. The other girls were having a lyrical class.

"Okay girls positions!" Abby said the second she came in.

Maddie and I both got into our positions and started dancing when the music started.

In the middle of the dance Jill came in.

"I think you should really stop with the favoritism Abby! I just saw the schedule and Kendall barely has any time to dance while these 2 get two hours to practice just for one dance!" Jill shouted at Abby.

"Well it's not my fault these kids work twice as hard as Kendall, is it!" Abby shot back.

"Well go ask the other moms!" Jill screamed.

Then Abby went out of the room to shout at those moms.

At this point Maddie and I finished going through our dance and we had nothing else to do. So we just decided to sit down and rest for a bit.

"I'm sorry about Kenzie" said Maddie suddendly.

"What do you mean?" I asked her.

"I know she's been kinda rude to you and ignoring you. I heard what happened in the car." She told me sadly.

"It's ok its not your fault." I told her.

"Mackenzie is just scared your gonna take Brynn away from her when we leave. That's why she is kinda leaving you out." Maddie continued.

"Oh." Was the only thing that came out of my mouth.

"Don't feel left out. If you do just come to me." She said.

I engulfed her into a huge hug.
She was way nicer than what I thought.

Way nicer than what Kenzie told me about.

Way nicer than Kenzie.

"Let's practice our dance." I suggested.

In no time we were practicing our dance.

When Abby came in we were dancing in sync.

The first thing she did was clap.

"Sorry about that girls. The moms are very dramatic!" Abby told us and we finished our lesson.
