"I hate taxis" Pace cringes at the tattered seat belt that's attached to the seat of the cab. We had to take a taxi because Paces brother Jacob forgot to pick us up. " You get used to it" I mumble as I struggle to grab my phone out of my pocket and start playing Candy Crush. "OMG do you like that game too!?!?!?" Pace squeals leaning over to get a better look at my phone, "yeah! best game ever!".
The rest of the ride to Paces house we play candy crush my phone, squealing every time we pass a level.

About fifteen minutes later we pull up to a small gated community near Starbucks. We undo our seat belts and Pace hands the taxi driver a $20 bill. "Thanks" I smile at Pace and she smiles back.
"Hey Pace!" an older woman shouts as we walk by, "Hey Johanna" Pace shouts back.
We have a short conversation with her about the tryouts and dance.
"Who's your friend here" Johanna points her chewed up pen at me.
"This is Avery Ives I met her at the Big Apple Dance tryouts" Pace introduces me, " oh yeah how did that go anyway?" "We both got in" we sync and start jumping up and down.
"Well congratulations girls! Hope to see more of you Avery" "You to Johanna" I smile and she presses a button that opens up the gate.
As we walk past all the houses Pace seems confused. Suddenly she starts sprinting towards a large white stone house with light wooden siding , and I follow. As we get closer to the mini mansion I can start to hear the beat of music. Pace walks over to the door and I ask "Is this even your house" "ya" Pace continues " I am so going to kill Jacob!" I laugh and we open the door.
"CONGRATULATIONS!" I look around to see all of the A team smiling ear to ear. I glance over at the couch and find Cam and Jacob smiling like idiots. Pace and I walk over to our brothers and Pace asks "Jacob what did you do?" "We gathered the squad for some cake..... that's all" Camron smiles answering Jacobs question.
"Correction Cam you gathered the whole community and you made us take a cab! Which by the way was nearly impossible to flag down!" I exclaim. Pace almost had to walk into the middle of the road to get ones attention.
We thank our brothers and sit down at the large white marble table and start devouring the ice cream cake.
Pace and I have the best brothers ever.
🎀💕(two days later)🎀💕
It's about 5:00AM and yes I know very early, but I enjoy it.
I do most of my school work this morning so that when I get home from dance class I won't have as much. Dance starts at ten which means that some people have to miss some hours in school. Luckily I won't.
I pull my long brown hair into a sock bun and place as many bobby bins in as possible. I use hairspray to get ride of any flyaways. I walk over to my dresser and grab a pair of black lulu lemon leggings and a tribal print tank top. After changing and doing my hair I put on mascara, nude eye shadow, concealer, and black eye liner on for makeup.
I put on a pair of soft socks I got when I went to Canada from a store called roots, then I slip on my black uggs. I grab my dance bag that I packed the night before with extra clothes, makeup, snacks, my jazz shoes, and a few water bottles. I walkout of my bedroom to find Camron watching 'Long Island medium' which is our favourite show ever! Cam is also home schooled so we watch a lot of it together.
"Ready?" Camron asks me ask he grabs his green jacket and I grab my military coat.
"Yep!" I say with exitment as we lock the apartment door.
This is it. Big apple here I come!
