Chloe's POV

We just finished with all the animal acts and now Nathan and Greg are out doing their act. I walked out from the back but stayed over to the side,I seen Ryan laugh as the balloon pops for the third time. Jack was standing beside me and he was popping the balloons at the right times, I seen Bella and Charlie laughing making me smile.

"God dammit!" Nathan yells making everyone laugh as he stomps off to go out back, Greg shrugs making everyone laugh again

"Nathan this is your last ballon" my dad says into the microphone, he was out back so no one could see him. Only hear him

"Last balloon! Oh god Greg be careful this time!" Nathan yells as he carefully walks over to Greg holding the ballon out in front of him, both Nathan and Greg are in clown costumes with face paint. The audience continues to laugh

"It's not my fault you hand me dodgy balloons, we can never get through our act!" Greg yells making me laugh along with the audience as jack gets ready to shoot the balloon

"Oh just take it" Nathan says handing Greg the balloon, they are good actors these two. Greg holds the balloon above his head as Nathan turns his back to walk back into the middle of the stage. Nathan winks at jack and he shoots the elastic at the balloon, this time this balloon was filled with water and it went all over Greg. As Nathan turned around acting shocked

"You broke the balloon again!" Nathan yells as he starts chasing Greg around, the audience never seemed to stop laughing as Greg fake kicked Nathan's ass before bowing at the audience and running out back, Nathan smiles and bows before following him.

"And that's how you cause rivalries between two brothers" jack says to me laughing making me laugh as the audience clap some still laughing

"Imagine if you did that and they didn't know" I say to jack as holly walks out to preform.

"They'd kill me when they found out" he says with a laugh before walking out back, I watch as holly stands on a piece of wood that was only balanced on a ball. She got her balance before she started hula hooping 5 hoops at a time, Mitch walked out onto the stage with more hula hoops and one at a time threw more up to her. Eventually she had hula hops from her neck down to her waist, as she balances herself on the wood that has a ball under it. I walk out back and start getting ready for my act, i have a solo act before I have the group act. I change into my first costume

Before making sure my make up still looked okay, I was on after holly

Before making sure my make up still looked okay, I was on after holly. I couldn't help my nerves, i was so scared I'd stuff up in front of Ryan. Why did he have that effect on me? He made me so nervous, it annoyed me that I didn't know why.

"Chlo your up" my dad says, I nod and get up walking over to the curtain. I take a deep breath before stepping through the curtains,I wave as I walk over to the middle of the stage. I seen the boys over getting the mats ready also the hoop, I started off with a gymnastics move doing a aerial move i held my hands up in the air as the audience clapped. I only really did that while the hoop was being lowered to the ground, I smiled over at Ryan as one of the guys attached the safety harness to me.

Ryan's POV

When Chloe came onto the stage I couldn't help but smile, I watched as a hula hoop hung from the ceiling. It was lowered and Chloe held onto it as they attached the safety harness to her, before stepping to the side. Chloe put her left foot on the hoop and then her right so she was standing on the hoop as it hung, slowly the hoop was brought higher up in the air. Chloe kept her balance, standing on the hoop as the guys moved mats under her. Just for extra safety. Chloe waved to the audience before music started playing, I seen her take a deep breath before she let her self drop holding herself up with her hands, she separated her legs so she was doing the splits in the air. Before wrapping her legs around the hoop and hanging from the hoop, does this girl ever stay on the ground? She bent her body up so her legs could go over her shoulders if she wasn't holding onto the hoop by her legs. All I could think of was ouch, she's flexible. She soon dropped so she was hanging by her legs again, she was hanging upside down as she waved to the crowd again. Soon she pulled herself up so she was sitting in the hoop, the crowd cheered as she waved before she was Lowered to the ground. The harness was taken off of her waist and put on her wrist? As the hoop was undone so it was no longer hanging from the ceiling. Soon Chloe was pulled up to the air by her wrist and the lights went out, the hula hoop started glowing as Chloe hula hopped the one hoop as she spun in the air. This girl needs to learn to stay on the ground, tho the crowd loved her.
