Music. Dance. Theater. Art. Film making. 

All this can be found at the Hawking School of Arts, where each student fights to be the best and rise to the top. Whatever it takes to do that, the students of Hawking have no problem doing it. And just when it seems it can't get any more competitive, the Next Big Thing Competition is announced. 

Filled with talent agents and famous directors, actors, music producers, and so many more people who could help these students become famous, everyone is fighting to win. However, as they'll find, it's not as easy as it seems. That is, until a film student by the name of Jay Lucas comes up with an idea that he's sure will win, and jump start his career as a famous director. 

Jay decides to film what it's like at Hawking, pulling back all the layers of the students at the school who are competing in the competition, as well as demolishing the idea that an arts school is as glamorous as it seems on TV. But with so many others that are just as talented and even more talented than Jay, does he have what it takes to be the next big thing?

Behind The Spotlight by LittleBird2810

Being part of The Next Step Dance Studio is a dream coming true. She still can't believe she got in. But even though it all sounds amazing, it's not as easy as it seems.

Something she has been dreaming about since she was a little girl. But it's not all glitter and glamour. What will happen when she meets the members of their star team called 'A-Troupe'? What if she's responsible for changes in a few of the most iconic couples and friendships? Some people may love her, some may hate her. What if she falls in love for the first time? But most importantly, what if someone among the dancers figures out who she really is. What if someone finds out what she's hiding? What will happen behind the spotlight?

So Irresistible (BoyXBoy) by JT022325

I wouldn't say my upbringing was all rosy and luxurious! Despite being the son of a legendary producer and songwriter. I guess hard times meant my life would be changing forever! My overly religious mom saw to that shit when fighting for custody of me so I could be "saved and sanctified" with her in Mexico City. But maybe that's not such a bad thing after all. I would say my time here has been... interesting. Because moving here eventually meant meeting Mateo Garcia, someone I have nothing in common with. And meeting him meant opening up feelings I never knew I had. And worse, it meant our friend groups, who despise each other, had to meet each other. And boy oh boy, is that story me, my friends, AND his friends have to tell, Chi...

Gut Feeling by intwomindsatonce

Hailey Mayes - She has two incredible best friends, yes, but she's shy. She's terrified of the gossip and rumors that make up the school, yet she wants to find her place in it. So when the new kid shows interest in her, an opportunity presents itself. An opportunity to date the ridiculously hot new kid. And the idea of it thrills her. Levi Canus - He's admittedly good-looking, and combined with the fact that he's the famed new kid, well, he instantly becomes the new hot topic at Thelve High. He hates it. And then he meets a girl who seems equally perturbed by the endless rumors and whispers and suddenly things don't look so bad anymore. Caleb Hale - They friend-zoned each other early on. He's never taken center stage before, not really. Through that, he gained the confidence only someone who wasn't in the spotlight could have. Then, the new kid comes and changes everything he thought was true. Like, for example, maybe he didn't friend-zone her after all. ~ give it a shot updates every other week

The Arts by HCAvery

Another school year has begun, which means The Arts: Academy for Creative Performance and Design has a new freshman class. A typical class roster includes kids from all over the state, but a stunning number of new students know each other from the same hometown. There's Andi, the shy songwriter who would give anything for her favorite band to use her work; Kiara, a talented artist from a broken home; Robbie, Tyler, and Matt - former band mates turned bitter enemies; and Ivan, an aspiring filmmaker with a penchant for crude humor. Seriously, how did one small town manage to produce this many artistically gifted teenagers? That's anybody's guess. But what we do know is this: these freshmen have just begun the ride of their lives, and for better or for worse, they're all in it together. Awkward crushes, old (and new) drama, and creative assignments abound, this isn't just high school; this is The Arts.

The Brightest Stars by Kat7729

We admire our work with quiet smiles. I do a small chuckle and finally let all these sad moments become into memories that are worth remembering. Even if it means that those I loved so much might fade away; they will never be forgotten. I promise myself to do this... "Promise me that we will always remember and never forget," Nate quietly says. "What if we do?" I whisper. "What if we let the night become darker than the stars?" Nate turns, and takes small steps towards me. My heart is like a magnet bringing him closer as I turn towards him. He does that look I fell in love with the day we met. He's inches apart now and I'm left breathless. His whisper is as quiet as the moonlight shining through the windows of the class as he says, "Then I will find you to remind you of us. I'll remind you that stars shine brighter in the darkest nights..."

A Love Worth Waiting For by supersweetlollipop

[⚠ UNDER MAJOR EDITING ⚠] "W-why did you leave me?" I asked tears streaming down my face. "I'm sorry! I had to! I had no choice!" "Do you have any idea on what I went through?! At least he was there to help me!" "Please, just give me another chance!" He pleaded. Hurt, pain, guilt. I could see it all in his eyes. "Aren't we friends?" We both asked What happened to us? What happened to the joy and love I felt when he was there?! I wish I could just go back to the past, though I can't do that. "I don't know" I finally said as I turned away from him. Finally leaving him. ~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~ Meet Chloe! She's a happy, enthusiastic and funny girl. She always wore a smile! Though that was her before. She is now an introvert.
