Dance With Me (Step Up 2)

What do you do when you're brother is an extremely well known dancer? Everyone knows his name because he is such a great dancer.

Tyler Gage is my older brother. Yes, the Tyler Gage that is dating Nora Clark and going on tour. I love my brother to death, but every time someone finds out we're related that's all they care about. Then the questions come flying at me.

Can I meet him? No.

Can I get his number? No.

What's it like being Tyler Gage's younger sister? Great, except having people like you compare me to him.

Can you dance? Yes.

It must be hard to live up to such a great dancer, right? No, I'm my own person.

Is he seeing anyone? Obviously.

Why aren't you on tour with him? I'm still in high school.

So, can I meet him? The answer is still no.

That's all I hear from people. He may be going on tour, but he is just a regular person. I try my best to avoid people because they only become my friends to meet Tyler. It's happened about five times to me in the past two months. I would love to meet someone that actually wants to be my friend.

To make matters worse, today is my first day at MSA. The Maryland School of the Arts. Meeting new people is not my speciality.

Therefore, today I'm wearing black skinny jeans, black tank top, black hoodie, and my red converse. I do not want to be noticed.

I close my eyes for a split second imagining myself back in my old high school. I wasn't popular there, but people knew to leave me alone.

Suddenly, I'm falling backwards and land on my back. What the heck just happened?! My eyes snap open to see a dorky guy with extremely curly hair.

"Oh! I'm so sorry!" He apologizes bending down to help me up. I straighten my clothes and pull one headphone out of my ear. I fix my hood to cover my face better.

"It's fine." I shrug reaching for my bag that is laying on the floor. The guy picks it up before I can and hands it to me.

"I'm Robert Alexander the third, but people call me Moose." He says grinning.

I look up at Moose. He must not have figured out who I am. Good. I want it to stay like that. "Cool." I turn away from him walking down the hallway.

"Whoa! Wait a second!" Moose runs after me. He runs in front of me stopping me from walking away. "I didn't get your name."

"That's because I didn't give it to you." I put my headphone back in my ear and push past him.

Moose grabs my arm stopping me once again. "You must be new. Let's go get some lunch!" He drags me to the cafeteria. Dang this kid is persistent. Moose brings me to an empty picnic table outside by the trash cans. "You wait here. I'll go get us some food. Don't go anywhere."

I let out a deep breath and plop down on the bench. If I leave I know Moose will find me. I set my arms on the table and lay my head on them. I didn't get a lot of sleep last night. I was too busy talking to my best friend Camille. She is going to a high school in New York now.

The picnic table creaks as someone else sits at the table. Probably Moose. I look up to see a familiar girl with long brown hair. Is that? No, it can't be.

"Andie?" I sit up straight. The girl's head snap to me and her eyes widen in shock.

"Callie?" Andie grins at me in surprise. "What are you doing here, girl?"
