Just a Day In My Life

Results- Chapter 12

I had gotten home on that Monday night, filled with adrenaline. After what had happened at the bus stop to my audition, it filled me up with energy. With that being said, I didn't really go to sleep that night. I was bouncing on the walls doing whatever I felt was appropriate. One second I was sing show tunes and the next I was dancing to those show tunes.

Even Mikayla walk into my room at one point in the night trying to get me to go to sleep. Of course, I didn't

Since my mind was everywhere, I thought about some pretty deep stuff. For the first time in a while, I had really questioned and thought about where my family was.

I had faith that they were somewhere on this earth. Mikayla was able to get home and she had to come from somewhere so the rest of my family had to be out there, right? That's when I got thinking. What if something did really happen to my parents? What if they got in a terrible ship wreck and Mikayla just hid the story from me?

I thought about this to hard and needed to talk to someone. I needed someone to comfort me. I didn't want to go to Mikayla because if any of this was true, she would just hide it from me for as long as she could so she could protect me from myself. I didn't want to ask any of my old friends because I felt as if the would think I was being whiney and complaining about my life problems when they have their own to worry about. That left me three people. Whitney, Sophie or Charlie.

I decided that I didn't want to bother Whitney or Sophie at two in the morning and have them be mad at me later so I decided to talk to Charlie.

Me
Um, r u awake? I need to talk

Charlie

shoot at it.

Well...

I had finally went to sleep. Texting Charlie really calmed me down and I was able to go to sleep peacefully. Charlie always seemed to calm me down.

I woke up in the morning ready to go. I decided that I was going to be riding the bus for a while since Charlie would be on the bus too. We weren't a thing but we were really close to each other as friends.

We sat next to each other on the bus, both as awkward as could be. It was like we didn't know how to talk to each other on our way to school. I decided to make small talk with him and got him hyped up for the cast list to be posted. We were both so excited for the list. According to Sophie, our director ALWAYS posts the cast list when we get to his class so we can get started immediately. It made since, which made me more nervous.

The bus had finally arrived to the school and we all got up off the bus. Charlie and I were walking next to each other and out of nowhere, Charlie grabbed my hand as we walked. I was confused but I enjoyed it so I held on a bit tighter, ensuring that we didn't let go of each other. At the time I didn't really think of what Whitney or Sophie would do if they saw.

But then all of a sudden, the thought popped into my head and I instantly dropped my hand. Charlie was confused and didn't understand why I did that. I tried to tell him with my facial expressions and he seemed to get the main idea.

We had finally gotten to our sketching class and I immediately saw Whitney and Sophie. I felt really relived that I had let go of his hand earlier before they saw something. I felt as if I need to tell them about everything that has happened before they found out.

We went past sketching without saying a word to each other. We didn't want to the more awkward with having our friends around.

Band also went by fast. All we did was talk about the football game we had played at last week so we could improve on our marching band music.

All that left was theater. I was so nervous to see the roles everyone got. That when Charlie dragged me to the black box. He was so eager to see the results, and there they were.

Oh my Lord. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I didn't think my audition was that good but I was casted for Jessica anyways. I had Charlie and Sophie read it over and over again just to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Sophie seemed a lot happier than I thought she would have been. She was being very supportive instead of being kinda sad about not getting the role she wanted.

That's when I realized that she wanted me in this role. So she can see Charlie and I together, almost as a couple. As a few others congratulated me, I walked into the black box. Charlie and I hugged and then we were on our way to our seats.

As the director was talking to us about the show, I got a note from Sophie. It was from Charlie so I opened it. It said,

"About that date, imma do something big, so look nice"

I didn't know what he meant so I nodded a quick yes to him and continued to pay attention to class.

The rest of the week flew by and before I knew it, I was leaving 8th period on Friday. That meant my date was coming up soon and I was really nervous.
