The Next Step: Jiley later on

Chapter 14 Dinner and Pizza

Riley's POV

"James! We have to leave right now or we are going to be late!" I say to my husband. "Ok!" James replies. We walk down to the lobby hand and hand. "You look lovey tonight ." James compliments. "Why thank you, you don't look to bad yourself." I giggle. He laughs and flags down a taxi.

We arrive at the restaurant that Ella wanted to have dinner at. We walk inside and we see Ella waiting for us at a table next to a window of the ocean. "Riley!" Ella exclaims. She gets up and hugs me tightly. "Hi Ella" I say. "James, You and Riley look so cute together!" Ella says. James laughs "Thanks Ella" "We have a lot of catching up to do!" She says excitedly.

Michelle's POV

Riley left Eldon and I in charge for all the A troupers. I am a little worried because there is a lot of people. "Guys! Why don't we order pizza and watch a movie!" I suggest. "Yea sure." Richelle says. "Umm what do you usually get for toppings?" I ask Richelle but apparently all the kids heard and gave their opinion.

"Sausage!" "No Peppers for me." "How about pineapple and ham?!" "Pepperoni!" "Can I have just cheese!" They all told me. "Ok!" I yell. "You guys obviously have your own favourite pizza toppings so let's work it out!" I say. "How about a meat lovers pizza for the people who like protein on their pizza. An all cheese pizza and a veggie pizza? Will that work?" Eldon asks. The dancers nod their heads in agreement. "Ah finally we agree." I say.
"I don't know how Riley and James do it every day." I whisper to Eldon. He laughs and says "Me neither"

I order the pizzas and instead of having to pay a delivery fee, Eldon volunteers to go pick it up with North.

The dancers are currently hanging out in the girls room because Riley made this rule about no girls in boy rooms what so ever. Probably because she knew what her and James did when they stayed in hotels and she didn't want to deal with that.

"Paper plates, water cups, and napkins." I say in my head just so I don't forget anything. Being 20 weeks pregnant, you tend to forget a lot of stuff. I place my hands on my round belly. "Mommy loves you." I say to my unborn baby.

A few minutes later Eldon and North come in with pizza and all of the dancers behind them.

The small hotel room for crowded fast. No wonder Riley always tells the team to meet in the hallway and not the hotel room.

After all the pizza was gone and I mean gone, All of us sat down to watch a movie. Some of us were on the couch but most of the teens were on the ground.

The team decided to watch a comedy because the girls didn't want to watch horror or a action movie and the boys didn't want to watch a romantic one. I did not expect that watching 12 teenagers was this much work.

James POV

I think Ella really has changed for what she told Riley and me. She owns her own studio and has dance conventions and she got married last year.

"It would be so fun if you could come visit me in London next year!" Ella says happily. "Yea super." I say. I just listened most of the dinner. I let the girls talk and forgive each other for what they did in the past.

"So tell me, when do you want little ones?" Ella asks. "Umm Ella" I start but get interrupted by Riley. "James, it's ok." Riley says. Riley starts to tell her what she has been going through and Ella seems quite sad about something. "Ella, you seem sad, what's bothering you?" I ask. "Oh it's nothing really but I had miscarriage last year." "I'm sorry Ella." Riley's says. "It's fine but Riley you shouldn't be here. You should be resting." Ella tells Riley. "That's what I said." I see Riley look at me mad. "I'm fine Ella, but thanks for caring." "Riley says. "Just be careful Riley." She smiles at Ella's kind words.

"Now tell me about the others. Michelle, Noah, Oh and what's his name. Edward, no Ethan." Ella asks. "Do you mean Eldon?" I ask. "Oh yea that's his name." She says. Riley and I tell her all about the old a troupers and before we know it, it's almost 11pm. "I would love to chat more but I have to get back to my dancers, who should be in bed but aren't." Ella exclaims. "Ok, I had a very nice time." I say. "The food here was really good." I add. "I hope we can stay in touch now." Riley says. "Of course Riley." Ella replied.

Michelle POV

After the 2 hour movie, gosh that was long, i did not get that movie at all but everyone else did and laughed all of the movie including my husband. "Alright guys, you have the mystery music dance tomorrow and you should get some sleep." They headed to their rooms right away and I was thankful for that because I was really tired myself.

I wanted to wait up for James and Riley but I couldn't keep my eyes open so I told Eldon I was going to bed.
I changed into my sleepwear and took off my makeup and went to bed.

I woke up to Eldon playing with my hair. "Morning sweetie." He said. "Morning" I yawned. "What time is it?" "Around 9:30." "What! I have to get up!" "Michelle, James and Riley said we could stay here today and just relax or we could come see them later. Beside you looked tired and I couldn't bring myself to wake you." He said.

I got you some coffee but it might be a little cold." "Thank you." I smile and take a sip of the coffee. It was actually very cold but I didn't want to make him feel bad so I said "Just the way I like it"

"Hey baby girl, how's it going in there?" Eldon asks my Stomach. I giggle at my funny husband. "What?" He asks. "Your cute." I say kissing him on the cheek. "What time did Jiley get home?" I ask. "Umm around 11:30. But James and I stayed up talking till 1am. Riley went to bed because she didn't feel well." He tells me. "Oh ok." I say. "Do you ever worry about Riley sometimes?" I ask. "Of course she's my friend but my main concern is you and our baby girl. James can take care of Riley. That's his job as her husband so remember Riley is in good hands and James won't let anything happen to her." Eldon says. "Your right." "Yea I know." He says cocky. "Your not right 100% of the time tho." Well ok 99%." He says. I laugh. "I love you." "I love you too."

Riley's POV

We got 1st place in the turning competition so we are trying to match our dance to the mystery music and so far it's working.

I tell the dancers to take a break and I walk down to the little café in the theatre. I have had a headache since last night and it's not going away.

I order a smoothie and sit down at a table. I scroll through my social media and post a few pictures of the team. I notice someone sit down in the seat across from me. "Hi James" I say. "It's not James." I look up to see who it is and I really hope it wasn't the person I thought it was, but it is.

Ooo a cliffhanger.....Who do you think it is? I hope you enjoyed this chapter because I had fun writing about Micheldon.
