Right From The Start {Book 3}

Crashing & Burning

"What is going on here!?!" [Melanie]

"Isn't it clear? We are rehearsing." [Vilu]

"Without us?!" [Melanie]

"You're late. What us are we suppose to do?" [Vilu]

"Was replacing us necessary, though?" [Leon]

"No one was replaced." [Broadway]

"Then why is he here? Last time I checked he was not on the list." [Leon]

"Alex stepped in to take on your parts since you were not here. That way those who were on time could get some kind of practice." [Maxi]

"Fine. I get that..." [Leon]

"I don't think you do." [Maxi]

"Leon. You came in a half an hour late. You know that we have classes after this. You may no longer be enrolled, but your friends are." [Diego]

"I'm sorry, but not everyone here is Leon's friend." [Melanie]

A direct comment made just for Violetta. Sure it couldn't be anymore true in that moment, but to make only matters worse. Violetta did the most mature thing she could have done to make the scene less eruptive. That was she stepped off stage and directed herself to gather her notebooks in order.

"The point is that you are not considering nor respecting the time that we have to practice. If you don't care about helping us save the studio then just don't sign up." [Fede]

The gang took notes from Violetta and started leaving to get to their next class. Melanie scrambling, trying to bring peace back into the group.

"Now why not we calm down and continue our practice for the time we have left?" [Melanie]

"We would if there was more time. Unfortunately we all have to get to a class right now." [Cami]

Leon and Melanie couldn't be further off on the dark side then they are now. It's much worse for Leon considering that half of the group are his best friends and band mates. He knew he'd messed up, but didn't have a clue on how severely.

Across the room where Vilu is still gathering her notebooks, Alex joins her.

"Everything alright?" [Alex]

"Just a bit overwhelmed. Sorry for bringing you involved in all that." [Vilu]

"What, the arguement? That didn't bother me, I am glad you brought me in for a session. To be honest it gave me great exposure in a group setting." [Alex]

"Glad you see it that way. Look I have class now, maybe later we can meet up for another lesson?" [Vilu]

"Love to, can I walk with you to your class?" [Alex]

"Sure." [Alex]

As they do Leon sees them together. May appear to be jealousy with the eye rolling, clenched jaw, and sour lips. However Leon is not jealous of Alex, actually sad. Trying to pursue Violetta and yet in the end she friend zone's him every time. You can say that Leon is resentful to Alex and finds him intolerable. Believes that Alex is trying to be like him or maybe possess his spot in the studio.

Having a room to himself, Broadway takes the time to perfect the choreography for the group video. He turns on the music for the track and begins with the moves he has already recorded. The rest he is going to attempt improvisation to come up with the second half.

In the door frame stands Cami. She'd passed by to only see Broadway giving her a tiny pit-stop to observe. While watching him she thinks about how great of a dancer Broadway is, how passionate he is about it, and intelligent with his choreographies. The things she lacks in is what he excels at, reason for why they made such a good team.
