Change is good

Busy Busy chapter 11

Emily's point of view: I woke up to my alarm clock playing Like That. I shut it off and surprisingly sprung out of bed. I wasn't tired I guess I slept pretty good last night. I put on a pair of leggings,a flannel and boots. My hair was wavy from the braid it was in last night so I let it down. I actually tried on my makeup today and it turned out good. I gathered my stuff and headed out the door. On my way to Sarah's house I got a text but I waited till I got to her house to read it. As I pulled up to her house she got in and I looked at my phone.

From: Jack 💙: hey I can't hang out tonight I have football but maybe another time.

As I read it I felt a little bummed, although I knew I was busy too. This is going to be an interesting week since I have dance and pre season track. Jack has playoffs soon so he's gonna be loaded with practices.
I replied, "ok I will at least see you in class."

I turned off my phone and drove to school. Sarah and I didn't talk that much in the time it took us to get to school. I parked and walked to my locker to put away my dance bag and a couple of books. The bell rang and I hurried off to class. Of course my teacher decides to make us start a project during a week that seems like its gonna be never ending. I got paired up with a new girl in my class. She was really cool I'm happy about this project now. We didn't have much time to start it but we did as much as we could in the rest of the time we had. The rest of classes went by really slow but at least it was the end of school so I can clear my head in dance than go for a run. Although Jack and I didn't talk much I got to see him which made me happy.

I changed for dance and started stretching for a new combination we were gonna learn.

"Can I get everyone's attention!" said Ashley.

"A academy has announced they will be taking 10 girls from our school to represent in a competition. You will train with the academy for a week and don't worry about school work you will be able to do it there. In order to be picked you have to audition so today you need to prepare a combination you would like to show." Ashley informed us.

I knew exactly what I wanted to do so I ran over to my phone and played unkiss me by maroon 5. I'm gonna do a lyrical solo since at the productions I did hip hop and jazz. My headphones where in and I started piecing moves together. At the end of practice I was imformed that we need to fundraise so we have enough money to stay in hotels so its a easy commute every day since academy's dance classes are going on 24/7. Maybe I should just get a job instead of raising money by asking people to but stuff.

I thought more about it than I left and ran a mile around the track which was now empty because football ended. As I finished I saw someone in the stands and they looked rather familiar. When I got closer I realized it was Jack.

"What are you doing here still?"I asked.

"Well I knew you were going to run after dance so I decided to wait for you so I could see you,"he said cracking a smile.

It was nice to see Jack waiting for me since I know he is probably incredibly tired.His arm was wrapped around me as he walked me to my car. I kissed his and we went our ways. When I got home I took and shower put on a pair of sweats and a oversized t-shirt. After school tomorrow I'm going job searching. I crossed the day off on the calendar and hopped into bed.
