The Broadway Boy That Shared His Name

Read Through and New Opportunities

Ruby's P.O.V

I woke up and yawned. I rubbed my eyes and climbed out of bed. I checked my phone to see it was Tuesday 6:30am. I grabbed a red tank top and black leggings. I walked into the bathroom and took a quick shower. I hopped out and got changed into that outfit. I grabbed jeans with the knees ripped, a red crop top that has the word 'spoiled' in black writing on it and black chunk heel boots and put them into my dance bag. I turned to see Emerald dressed in a green tank top and black leggings. We grabbed our bags and made our way to school.

We arrived at school and Emerald went to the dance room to start stretching. I went to my english classroom and put my dance bag underneath my table and my backpack on my chair. I took out my binder and a rubix cube and put it on my desk.

Time passed and soon the bell rang. I grabbed my bags and walked to my next class. I grabbed my pointe shoes and walked into class. I saw a 7th grader named Jake and we started stretching together.

"How was your first week here, Ruby?" Jake asked.

"It was pretty fun," I chuckled, "We have our first read through today."

"Fun," Jake nodded, "Have any opportunities came knocking at your door?"

"Not yet," I shrugged, "But someone is coming into Masterclass to do something with us."

"What type of masterclass?" Jake asked.

"We never are told about who is coming ahead of time," I shrugged as I went into my right split.

"That's a good way to prepare everyone," Jake nodded.

"I know," I nodded as I went into my left split.

"So what type of jobs have you had?" Jake asked.

"Well I've been on Broadway," I started as I went into my middle split, "And I've also done a couple music videos."

"Yeah," Jake nodded, "Your mom's music videos. So you've only really been on Broadway."

"Ouch," I chuckled as I went into a back bend, "But yeah. You're right. I want more opportunities like Emerald."

"She's favorited," Jake shrugged.

"I know," I sighed as I put on my pointe shoes, "I just try to act like I don't know."

"Does Blue favorite Emerald?" Jake asked.

I stood up and started doing pointe stretches, "No, actually. She tries to get me more opportunities and but no one wants to cast this red head. They want Emerald."

"You just have to keep trying, maybe you might also get a movie gig," Jake explained.

I went into a leg tilt on pointe and caught myself on Jake, "Sorry about that. And yeah, I won't give up. And it's not like Starlight 2 isn't coming."

"When is the premier happening?"

"Not until September and then in the movie theaters in the beginning of October."

"Your sister's superhero is going to be on the Halloween shelves."

"I know."

"Doesn't that anger you?"

"Welcome everyone! I hope you have stretched!" Our teacher Derek smiled at us.

Time had passed and soon it was time for the musical. I grabbed my clothes and ran to the bathroom and got changed into the red crop top with the word 'spoiled' in black writing on it, jeans with the knees ripped and and the black chunk heels boots. I ran to my bag and put my dance clothes in it. I grabbed my two bags and walked to class. I entered and put my bags near Emerald's. I walked over and sat next to Emerald with Ama on my right and Theo to the left of Emerald. Emerald was wearing her green crop top with the word 'spoiled' in black writing on it, jeans that are cuffed at the bottom and black chunk heel boots.
