Lost Cause

Chapter Six

Rachelle's POV

Jason is really annoying me. He won't stop asking me what's wrong. I keep telling him- nothing's wrong, but he won't believe me. UGH! I wish I was a better actor. I don't want him to worry about me, I don't want anyone to worry about me. I'll just have to get better at hiding things I guess.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Still Rachelle's POV

So today in drama, we got assigned scenes, songs, and monologues that we would take to district festival! I'm so excited, I thought competition was over and we missed our shot, but there's still the individual acts. I got assigned a song from a musical called Once On This Island. It's pretty cool but I can't reach one of the notes...yet. Anyway, that's my solo, I'm also in a small group musical number and a large group musical number! Superior here I come!  

Jason's POV

So Rachelle's back to normal again. Phew. She's really excited about the next competition and I heard we're also gonna start working on a few Christmas acts. Rachelle doesn't know yet though. Maybe we'll get to do one together.

Anyway,  for the individual acts I got a scene called A Tea Party in Wonderland with my best friend Jim, Nick and a girl named Valarie. It's gonna be so much fun! There is a down side with going to festival though. We don't have enough money so we have to do a few fundraisers. A car wash and a spirit night at Chick-fil-a. Well, at least I get to be with Rachelle.

Three weeks later still Jason's POV...

So here's what's been happening. We found out what's happening for the Christmas acts. Rachelle, Valarie, Chelsea, Jim and I are doing a pantomime skit....as elves.

A pantomime act is where the actors don't use props, but instead the use their hands, like mimes. We are performing to music being played by the orchestra as we act out the scene. So here's what the scene's about. The elves are working on an assembly line as Santa (Jim) sits on the side of the stage reading over his 'list'. The elves are building dolls and everything's going great until the lead elf (me) breaks the head off one. The other elves all try to fix it to no avail. Finally, elf #1 (Rachelle) gets an idea. She runs back to the workbench and grabs three hammers. The elves all try to fix the doll until I get frustrated and get my own hammer. I snatch the doll away and as I'm trying to hit the doll, I end up knocking out the other elves. I see that they are lying on the floor and panic. Santa sees what's happening and comes over. He wakes up the elves with a magic whistle and goes back to his list. When the other elves remember what happened, they all get really mad and (silently) yell at me. Then, elf #2 (Chelsea) has an idea, she and the other two elves grab their hammers and are about to knock me out when I find the doll on the ground and hold it up, it was fixed! They drop their hammers and smile and laugh and on the very last note, the doll breaks, they all glare at me, and I run away.

So we've been practicing for that and also for the next competition, we call this one district, even though technically the last one was district too. Rachelle is doing great! Her solo is totally gonna get superior.

Car Wash Rachelle's POV

I think Mrs. Casser knows Jason and I are a couple. Any time we're within five feet of each other, she sends one of us on some urgent task. Well, finally we got some alone time. Valarie and Samantha got tired of holding the sign on the street corner so Jason and I gladly took their places. When we got to the corner we droped the signs and sat down.

"Haha, this is our first moment alone together all day." I said.

"Yeah, so what do you wanna do?"

"Let's have sex Jason." I said jokingly (quick A/N, nobody give me any hate for this, IT WAS A JOKE)

"Ok," Jason said, taking off his shirt and moving toward me.

"WHOA WHOA WHOA! I WAS KIDDING JASON!"

"Aw, damn."

"Damn?"

"Uh, yeah, I mean you're a girl, I'm a guy. We're teenagers, the parts fit. I thought you were serious."

"You joke about having sex all the time, why can't I do it?"

"Well, with me its expected, I mean c'mon I'm a guy, I've got two heads remember?"

"Right.....So, what should we talk about?"

"How's your solo coming?"

"Good, that one note is really killing me though."

"Yeah I know, don't worry though, you'll get it, I know you will."

"Thanks Jason." Before I knew it, it was time to go home. I texted Jason until one a.m....

------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few more weeks passed and it was time for Thanksgiving Break. Rachelle went to visit her grandmother in a town called Bradenton in Florida. She texted Jason everyday but he never texted her back. She was worried at first but then she got really concerned. 'Is he mad at me?' She thought...
