Shall We Dance (A Roc Royal love story)-ON HOLD

Ch.3

I woke up with a smile plastered on my face. I haven't felt this happy in my life and I just couldn't get him out of my head. I sat up in my bed and my phone started to go off indicating that someone was calling me. I reached for my phone and answered it. " Hello" " good morning beautiful" a smile spread across my face and I knew it was Trey. " Goodmorning" " so I was wondering um if you were doing anything tonight." " Not that I know of" " Well would you like to go on a date with me tonight, you know if you want to?" " Um yea I would love to" really Elle love to now you sound desperate I thought to myself. " Cool well i'll pick you up around 7 ok" "ok" "alright see you later beautiful." "Bye" " wait never say bye, it means i'll never see you again" " Ok well see you later Trey" " see you later Elle." I hung up the phone and smiled to myself. I then got out of bed and took a shower then brushed my teeth.

I went to my closet and put on some black skinny jeans with a white crop top with angel wings on the back. I put on my black and white somoas to match then went into my bathroom. I brushed my hair to my left side and curled it. I put on my black and white feather earrings then put on some lip gloss and mascara on. I grabbed my purse, phone, and keys then headed out the door. I decided to go to my moms house and tell her about juilliard. I know she's gonna be mad. I went to starbucks first and got a caramel macchiato and a chicken sausage breakfast wrap. I called a cab and ate my food and finally made it to my moms house. I paid the cab driver then walked up to her door and knocked.

She open the door and greeted me. " Hey Elle haven't seen you in a while" " Hey mom and I know" I walked inside and I followed her to the kitchen and got hit with the aroma of her baking. " What you baking ma" " a glazed 7 up pound cake. I had a craving for some so I made me one" she took the cake out of the oven and glazed it. " Do you want some" " yea sure" she cut us both a peice then fixed us some vanilla ice cream to go with it. She handed me mine then sat down at the table with me. I took a bite of the warm moist cake and fell in love. " Mmmmmmm" " Hahaha so how you been Elle" " i've been good just working and goin home and repeat" " do you still work at that club?" " Yes I still work there" " I don't know why with all that loud music and people drinking and them young people gyrating all on each other, just disgusting." " Well it helps pay the bills and thats all I got right now" " Well if you would have listen to me you would have a good job like your brothers you could have been a lawyer." " Mom I don't want to be a lawyer I wanted to be a dancer and open up my own studio." " And look were you are now. A small apartment, no car, education, or a good job. I just don't know what went wrong with you."

I shook off what she said and decided to tell her about juilliard. I know she is gonna flip when I tell her." I auditioned to get in the school of juilliard i'm gonna be a dancer and when I get out of college and have enough money i'm gonna open up my own dance studio." " Did you get in?" " I don't know yet " I said while looking down at my cake and ice cream. " Elle why are you wasting your time on this stupid fantasy of yours its time for you to wake up and fucking realize that you need a real damn job instead of this dream your living in." She spat at me as she through her bowl away. I was starting to get really irritated by her. " Its not a fantasy ma I know I can do this" " And what if you don't get in Elle huh, what if you don't make it in to this school or your little dream. If this all fails don't come crying to me cause i'm not helping your ass." "I will make it into this school and get my studio no matter what why can't you just believe in me." I stood up and through my stuff away and headed towards her door. I opened it and stormed out the house.

" You'll never get anywhere with this dancing fantasy of yours Elle" she screamed out to me. I ignorned her and just kept walking. I mean who is she to tell me that I wont make it. I'm a amazing ass dancer and i'll show her stuck up ass that I will make it and I will get my studio. I walked farther and then got a cab. I got in the back and looked out the window still pissed at my mother. The cab stopped in front of my apartment and I got out.
