I arrived at Erin's house to take her to the rehearsal area. Today we were just getting used to our new surroundings and meeting the cast. Sienna was the other friend I decided to take. We were all singing to Abba as my mum drove us to the venue. When we arrived a wave of nerves fell over me. Why though? I'd already met the cast and we were all friends. Wrong. I didnt know the children of the cast.

We walked in hand in hand. Sienna and Erin ran straight to the groups of kids to make new friends. I just looked around and saw him. My worst enemy. Leo. He used to spread rumours about me in school until he moved. I was relieved then. I ran to him and tried to make things right.
"Hi Leo." I groaned.
"What the hell are you doing here? You don't belong here. You can't even sing." He muttered.
"I'm playing young Sophie." I replied.
"Oh great that's just great." He groaned facepalming. "I'm playing young Sky."
"Oh fabulous." I moaned and ran to Sienna and told her about Leo. Sienna went to the same school as me and was 2 years older than me. She smiled and ran to say hi to him.

I was suddenly called in for recording the soundtrack. I was to have a briefing of the songs and the lyrics on a screen. I started pretty soon and when I was recording 'Angel Eyes' Lily walked in. She used Makaton sign language to say "nice singing" and I replied with "thanks".
Right after I finished the whole soundtrack, I was taught some of the dances for some of the songs. It was a long day but I got to jump into Lily James' arms so it wasn't that bad.
When the 9 to 6 day was over we were told where we were staying. I didn't hear my name until he got to the end.
"And last but not least, staying with Lily in her house we have Amanda, Brooke and Erin!" Benny called. I guess they asked for her consent for children staying at her house.
"Oh! It's you 2!" Lily laughed when we were sent home. "I should have known."
Amanda looked at me.
"Haven't I seen you before?" She asked, puzzled.
"Yeah. We met when Ellen sent me to meet the cast and Lily had that cardiac arrest in the bathroom." I ranted seeing Erin's mouth drop open. "Was that a bit disturbing for you Erin? I'm sorry."
