Rileys POV:
Im walking into the studio alone because James has been delayed at band practice so he'll be here in a few minutes. I hear someone running up behind me.
'Riley!'
I turn around and see James.
'Hey! I thought you got delayed?'
'I did. But I have great news!'
'K'
'Some band just cancled their gig so there is now an open spot! And we get to take it! Which means we dont have to perform on the 17th!'
'Oh my god! No way!'
'Yes way! Its two weeks after the wedding!'
I smile.
'This is great!'
I lean in and kiss him.
We make our way into the studio.
'Allright guyes! Listen up!' Kate says as we walk in.
'Regionals are comming up! Are you all excited!'
Everyone cheeres.
'This is whats going to happen today. I want to see the solos and trios and the group routeens. If they are clean and tidy....then you can have the rest of the day off'
They all run around to get redy to show her their dances.
'Hows your mom James?' Kate asks.
'Shes getting much better. She will be leaving at the end of the week'
'Thats great news! Im so happy for you!' she says hugging him.
'Okay guyes! I want to see the solo! Lets go!'
The solo is shown to her followed by the trio and group routeen.
'Well done guyes! That was amazing! I can see you have all worked very hard...so you can head home early. Well done!'
They all cheere and get their things to leave.
Kate walks off. I turn to James.
'Yo Im going to get some drinks. Ill be back in a minute' he says.
'Okay'
He leaves.
I look around the empty studio. Its been so long since Ive just let loose and danced here. I take my shoes off and play a song that means alot to me. It just makes me feel so good when I dance to it.

James claps when Im done. I stand up and smile.
'That was amazing'
'Thanks'
He walks over to me.
'You know...its been so long since either of us have just danced here together'
'Yeah I know'
He hands me a drink.
'Thanks' I say taking some of it.
We look at eachother.
'You wanna dance?' he asks.
I smile.
'Lets do it'
I play some music and we start our duet.

'That was amazing!' I smile when we're done.
'I know right!'
I hug him.
He looks at me.
'What?'
'Your beatuiful'
I smile.
'You wanna go to culture shock?' he asks.
'Sure'
We get our things and go down. Suddenly West appears and sits next to us. He doesnt say anything. I mean Im not surprised that hes here. He always just shows up out of no where, but at least talk to us.
'Hey bro. Whats up?' James asks looking at him.
'I figured Id find you here'
'Okay'
He looks at James, then me, then back at James.
'Your getting married in a week' he tells him.
'Yeah I know'
'To her' he says pointing to me.
'Yeah I know that too. Man are you okay?'
'Oh Im fine. But the question is are you okay?'
'Yeah'
He looks at me.
'Are you okay?'
'Yeah Im good. Am...what are you exactly trying to do West?' I ask him confused.
'Im just making sure that two of my good friends are enjoying their last week of freedom before their tied together for life. Im also here to make sure that your ready for this wedding, you know just in case you try to run away on the day'
'Am...I dont think that will happen' James says.
'Youd never know. One time my uncle was getting married and his fiancé ran out of the church right before the cermony'
Me and James look at eachother.
'Am...well I wont be running off so you have nothing to worry about' I tell him.
He nods.
'Well Im gonna go. I have to go looking through some bins'
'Why?'
'Because I need to challenge my inner racoon'
I roll my eyes as he walks off.
'Is it just me or does West seem to get stranger every day' James asks.
'He does' I smile.
'Come on. Lets go. Im tired and need sleep' James says getting up.
'Me too'
We make our way back to the appartment.
Today has been a great day. First the whole gig thing is properly sorted and then I got to dance a solo and a duet with James. And of course the day wouldnt be complete without have one of Wests weird encounters.
I finally feel like things are falling into place.
The future looks brighter than I ever thought it would.
