We had spent three weeks in choreo rehearsals and it was tiring. Every day has been extremely tiring and sometimes frustrating because I'm not much of a dancer, but I worked through it. Kenny decided to start filming the dance numbers now, while we have the choreography fresh in our heads. We're filming It's Goin 'Down and You and Me later on, because we have to learn the sword fighting first and they're both bigger numbers.

On another note, the new cast members are fitting in really well. I've known China for literally ever, so we get along really easily and well. Dylan is such a chill and funny guy, he's really nice to be around. Thomas and I have been talking the most and he's a really good friend and really fun to be around. Sofia, Cameron, and BooBoo always talk about how Thomas and I are perfect for each other but we're just friends.

Today, they were gonna film Uma's song, What's My Name and if there's time, Sofia and I are gonna film our duet called Space Between.

I loved watching China. In a non creepy way. She's really talented and honestly she's slaying. I wasn't paying attention to Thomas until the music for the bridge came on and he started rapping.

"You know what they say, bad girls have all the fun.
Never learned how to count cause I'm number one.
Ready here we come, we always get our way.
It's a pirate's life, every single day.
Hey! She's the captain, I'm the first mate.
Enemies seasick can't see straight. 
Call 'em fish bait, throw' em on a hook.
Uma's so hot they get burned if they look. " 

We jaw dropped to the floor. He's so talented.
Him and China were really touchy, I guess, in the video. I don't know why, but something coursed through my body, and I don't know what it is or why. I was just so infatuated with him, I guess. 
Then it hit me:

Oh my god.

I'm falling for my co-star.

After what happened with Ryan, I don't want something bad to happen, whether we're friends, dating, I just don't want to ruin the already great relationship we have now.

They were filming Wha's My Name a second time and I looked around to find Sofia. I needed to tell her what's going on in my head. I saw her behind one of the camera guys talking to Brenna. 
I walked over to her as fast as I could. "Can we talk?"

She looked a little confused and concerned but nodded and we walked over to a more quiet and secluded spot on the set. "What's up?"

I fiddled with my hands together nervously. "Well, remember about a month ago when you asked if I like Thomas?" I continued when she was nodded. "Well, I think I do like him. And it's scaring me."

"Why? What's wrong?"

"He's just...so perfect. And love is scary, my stomach dropped when I realized, it's like when you reach the top of a roller coaster. Immediately I thought, 'oh my god, no one could break my heart like he could.'"

"Yeah, I get that; that's scary. I think you should talk to him, sort out what's going on between you two."

My eyes widened. "You can't tell him. I don't want to mess things up between us." I sighed and ran a hand over my face. "Man, I feel like a school girl with a crush."

She chuckled and pulled me into a hug. "It's okay, everything will be okay. Just know you can always talk to me."

I pulled back and smiled at her. "I know that, but thanks."

We had enough time to film Sofia and I's part of the movie for Space Between. Most of the song takes place in our "lair" I guess you could call it. The choreo wasn't complicated, all we had to do was start at the very bottom by the staircase, and make our way up to the top before separating the sides of the room and meeting in the middle. We only had to do two so, so the filming only lasted about 45 minutes.

As I was getting ready to leave, Thomas came up to me. "Nice job today. I saw you watching me by the way." he said with a sly look.

I blushed and looked down, trying to hide it. "Well, you did good. Nice rapping by the way."

"Thanks, been perfecting it for days. Well, I better get going, see you tomorrow." he smiled and walked away towards the doors.

Oh boy. I'm in deep.
