Kenzie's POV

I wake up in a cold sweat, heart pounding, mouth dry, adrenalin pumping through my veins. My horrific nightmare still replaying on a loop through my head. It's been the same the last four nights. I don't dare tell anyone here though, they will just blame it on my 'condition'. What they really mean is my schizophrenia. I am not ashamed of it. But this is different. It was more real. Every night it has been the same, I'm on stage performing a dance and it's all going well until I miss a turn. Then everyone starts screaming my name and throwing things at me. I run away but they chase me. Then I seem to be stuck, and they catch up to me and order me to start doing pirouettes. I can't disobey and the world just spins. And the noise builds and builds while the world is turning blurry I am spinning so fast. Then it feels like everything's about to explode, but then I wake up. I don't know what this really means.

Sitting up, I hear my nurse, Emma, walk into the room. She gives me a big smile and tucks her curly brown hair behind her ears. "Hi Emma!" I greet her warmly. Emma is one of the few people I trust, she is so nice and kind and helps me with anything I need. "Hi Kenzie!" She smiles back at me "Remember how I told you that the board was thinking of choosing some girls for the competition team?" I nod, I can only vaguely remember it though. "Well you've been selected!' I gasp and jump out of my bed. "Really? So I get to dance again, like I used to?" Emma nods and I wrap my arms around her waist. She returns my hug and then says "Now lets get you dressed and then I can take you down to the main hall where the dance teacher is taking your class"

After I had gotten changed into some of my old dance wear I had, I don't remember why I brought it to the hospital when I first came here but I'm glad I did, Emma, Asia (my best friend) and I walked down to the main hall. Entering a large spacious hall with white walls and a wood floor, I see that there are already girls here. Some I recognise, Brooke who has been here the longest, my sister Maddie and her friend Chloe. They are all stood in a line so me and Asia quickly hurry over and join them. Stood in front of us was a lady with brown hair and a jet black t-shirt. Next to her was a very pretty lady. I wonder what these dance classes will be like...
