Something More (Hold)

1

Hello my name is Ava Grace Harrison and I am 20 years old. I currently live in Windsor with my younger sister Ebony who is 18. Your probably wondering how can she afford to live by herself, Well I am a back up dancer. I have danced since I was about four and haven't stopped since. Back at my home I have two brothers Mason 16 and Louis 22. And obviously my mum and dad. Yeah that's it basically.

Today I had a job dancing in a music video. I got asked by a man called Blair to dance for his boyband so I accepted it because I haven't done a music video for a long time. He approached me after seeing me dance on Instagram but he also wants me to do a bit of acting to which is something new but I'm open to the idea. He told me to dress in a denim jacket if I had one with black underneath so I shoved on my black tubular Adidas shoes, my black ripped jean and a cropped black top with the jacket over the top.

"Ava they're here." Ebony yells from the living room. They were sending someone to pick me up which was kind. I run downstairs with my bag on my side and to the front door.

"See you later Eb." I say before leaving. I walk over to the car and see a bald man sat in the drivers seat. I pull the door open and I'm welcomed by a warm smile.

"Hello sweetheart I'm Blair." He smiles as I get in the car.

"Hello Blair thanks for the opportunity." I reply putting my seatbelt on.

"No problem your a gorgeous girl and amazing dancer the boys will love you." He says driving away from my house. I am always nervous around new people for some reason. I don't make it awkward I just get nervous in case I make a foul out of myself which happens quite a lot.

We arrive at the place where they were filming the video. It turned out to be an old warehouse with loads of cool fluorescent lights hung all around the place. I follow Blair through the warehouse to a little room in the back. He opens the door to reveal five boys and a women who Blair told me was Ginger.

"Guys this is Ava she's gonna be in the video. Ava this is Brooklyn Andy Mikey Jack and Rye." Blair says pointing all of them out. They all waved and some said hello.

"Hello I'm Ginger, did you go over the dance." Ginger asks me.

"Yeah I did." I reply.

"Great well you just stay back here and we will call you out." Blair smiles patting me on the back. I take of my bag and place it down on the side.

"Hello Ava I'm Brook nice to meet you." A young boys says holding his arms out for a hug. I wrap my arms round giving him a warm hug.

"Nice to meet your too."I smile.

"So you dance?" Mikey asks me, Well I think it's Mikey.

"Yeah ever since I was little." I reply.

"Sweet I like dancing but I'm no good at it." Brook laughs.

"You live in Windsor then?" Andy asks.

"Yeah I moved here with my sister a few moths ago." I reply.

"Cool." Andy replies.

I sit and talk to the boys for a while whilst each of them sing there individual parts before I'm called out. I walk out of the back room and follow Blair to where they were filming. I walk out to see Jack stood around dancing to music being stupid. He seemed like a funny person.

"Okay So you and Jack are just gonna stare at each other for this shot." Blair says. I stand in front of Jack and give him a small smile. The lights go down so it's just the lights on the roof lighting up. He counts down and films Jack staring at me, kinda awkward.

"Cut. Perfect. Go get Rye Jack." Blair instructs. I stand and wait whilst the boys swap over and Rye comes walking out. He walks over to me and gives me a smile.

"Hey." He smiles.

"Okay So Rye your gonna walk over to Ava and grab both her hands and pull her in for a hug." Blair instructs us. Again he counts down and like Blair said he grabs me arms softly and pulls me in for a hug the smell of his cologne filling my nose. I wrap my arms around his neck. He pulls away and pushes my hair behind my ear with his left hand.

"Cut. That was great."Blair smiles. "Okay Rye you go back we'll got some dance shots." Rye walks away and back to the room.

"Okay do you need a run through or shall we just go?" The camera man asks me, his name was Chris.

"You can just go so we don't waist time." I smile.

"I like this girl." Blair says. He puts on the music and Chris runs the camera, I wait till the chorus and start my dance routine. I go into my own little world when I dance it's like everything else disappears around me. I guess that's why I like it that much. Anyways I finish the last move and end with my hands on my hips. The music stops and an applause fills the room, I look to my right and see all the boys looking my way.

"Woah that was amazing I don't think we need another take." Blair says.

"Thanks." I reply. Rye comes walking over with a bottle of water which I kindly accept.

"Sign her up." Rye says before walking of.

I finish all my scenes for the music video and just sit in the back room whilst the boy sing all their parts. I had fun filming this video. Blair comes walking into the room with a big smile on his face.

"So I spoke to your dad who was your manager." Blair says. Was?

"Was?" I question.

"Yeah welcome to the alpha dog family." Blair smiles. Woah.

"No way! Really." I squeal.

"Way, Your the best thing since sliced bread how can I turn you away. You are beautiful a great dancer and have extraordinary acting skills." Blair smiles.

"Well thanks. I can't believe it." I say giving him a hug.
