Jiley-Our Realitionship Together

Dance talks

James POV:
I walk into the kitchen to see if Riley is there.
'Mom. Wheres Riley?'
'Down in the basement'
'Why?'
'She said she wanted to do something'
I smile at her and leave.
I walk down into the basement and see Riley dancing to music. She smiles at me.
'Hey'
'Hey'
'What are you doing?'
'Dancing a solo that I used to do'
'Come to think of it, Ive never seen you dance before'
'I havent seen you dance either'
'You want to show me it?'
'Okay'
The music starts and she preforms her solo. She is an amazing dancer. Her choreo is so strong and the emotions in it is amazing. She finishes her dance.
'Ri...that was amazing!'
'It could be better'
'Naa. You were perfect'
She looks at me.
'Can I see you do something?'
'Sure'
I play some music. I do some break dancing, hip hop and flips. It feels so good to dance. I love it so much.
She smiles and hugs me.
'That was sick!'
'Thanks'
'You know with your style and mine, we could make a class routeen'
'Like a duet?'
'Yeah!'
'Allright! Lets do it!'
We spend most of the time in the basement working out our duet. My mom comes down.
'What you guyes up to?'
'Comming up with a duet'
'Really? Hows it comming?'
I look at Riley.
'Really good actually'
'Cool. Well lunch is ready'
'Thanks'
We follow her up.
'Sandwitches!' Riley squeeles sitting down.
'Yeah. My mom makes the best ones ever!' I smile at her.
She bites into one.
'This is really good!' she says with her mouth full.
I laugh.
The doorbell rings. I answer it.
'Yo Hunter! Whats up man!' I smile as I lead him into the kitchen. I look at Riley who has finished her sandwich and is stuffing her face with crisps.
'Riley'
No answer.
'RILEY!'
She looks up at me.
'This is Hunter from dance' I smile.
She walks over and shakes his hand still chewing.
'Hunter this is my girlfriend Riley'
He looks at me.
'Really bro? I mean she does look cute but your dating someone who seems to like alot of food'
'I know man. I know'
Riley looks at us.
'Well Im going to get more food' she says turning around. I grab her wrist.
'No your not. Your spending time with me and Hunter right now'
'Do I have to?'
'Yes! Hes our guest!'
'But so am I'
'Well your different. Your my girlfriend which means your basicly part of the family so we are spending time with Hunter!'
She groans. I laugh.
We go up to my room.
'So how long have you two been together?'
'Nearly a year'
'Cool. How did it start?'
Riley looks at me.
'James came to our school and we became close friends and yeah'
'What was your first kiss like?'
Riley puts her head down.
I smile.
'Still cant get over it hugh?'
I could see her blush.
'Her family came over for dinner one night and we were left to wash up. When we were done we went outside and of course me been me I hold her hand. She looks at me and then... kisses me!'
I say the last bit looking at Riley. Our eyes meet.
'And with her been Riley and realising what shed done, she runs back into the house and goes into the bathroom. I tell her to open the door and when she does she runs outside and sits in the car. The rest of her family then leave'
'I guess school was akward for you two then?'
'Sure was. She didnt even want to talk about it'
I look at Riley who seems a bit embarassed.
'But in the end I managed to get through to her on how much I enjoyed the kiss. And how much I liked her'
'He took my lunch just so I would tell him how I felt!'
'Sounds like James allright'
I look at her as she smiles at me. She puts her head down.
'So hows things at the studio?'
'Good. Its strange not having you on A troup though'
'Ye nearly ready for internationals?'
'Yep'
'Why arent you on A troup?' Riley asks me.
'I left for the band. My heart just wasnt in it any more. I didnt feel as connected to it as I used to'
'James. This is internationals. Its a massive opportunity!'
'I know. I just dont see the point in been there if Im not into it, when there are plenty others who wants to go'
She looks at me.
'Seriously?'
I sigh.
'Look Riley. If I wanted it, I would have taken it. But I didnt and now Im living up to my decission'
'Hunter. Is there still an open spot on the team?'
'Yeah'
'Good. Whens auditions?'
'Tomorrow'
'Wait. Your not auditioning are you?' I ask her.
'Well yeah. Its internationals and I really wanna go. My old studio lost so this is my last chance of going'
'Are you sure? Its alot of pressure been on A troup'
'Im willing to take a risk'
I look at Hunter.
'Its up to you guyes. It is a big commitment though and you do have to be at every rehearsal'
She nods.
'RILEY!!!'
Emily comes running upstairs into the room.
'Em. Whays wrong?' she asks quickly standing up.
'Didnt you hear?! Theres a spot open at James studio for A troup! You could be on an internations team!'
'I know! Im going to audition tomorrow!'
'Eeeee! This is awsome! But who left?'
Riley looks at me.
'I did'
'Why?'
'My heart wasnt in it any longer'
'This is internationals! How is your heart not in it?!'
'It just isnt okay! Now can we just leave it?!'
I get up and leave the the room and go downstairs.
'James!'
Riley runs after me.
I stop.
'Whats wrong?'
'I dont want people telling me what I should and shouldnt do! I didnt want to dance in A troup so I left! Thats all there is to it!'
'So that duet we did together. That ment nothing to you? Nothing at all?!'
'Of course it did! I loved doing it! Dancing is amazing!'
'Then why did you drop out?!'
'I told you! My heart wasnt in it!'
'Dont lie to me James! Thats not the truth and you know it. So tell me why you droped out!'
'Because I love you Ri!'
I could tell that she was a little taken back by it.
'What has that got to do with it?'
'I dropped out for us. Cause I knew that if I stayed in A troup it would tear us apart'
'How?'
'Ri. You have no idea what its like. We spend hours in the studio rehearsing'
'So?'
'Your not getting what Im saying'
'Then tell me!'
'If Id stayed on A troup then we would never see eachother ouside of school. We would never get to hang out like this. We wouldnt even be in a realitionship right now. And if we were, wed either be fighting all the time or had broken up'
'But isnt this your dream?'
'Yes! But I did this for us!'
She looks at me.
'Im still auditioning though'
I sigh.
'I cant stop you but all Im going to say is that its going to be hard work. But its your life and you can do what you want with it and if you want to audition, then you can'
I walk off.
I just hope that this doesnt tear us apart.
Because I love her.
So much.
