(Season 3, with slight changes, English is my third language you can correct but be nice about it)

A-troupe was having a sleepover in studio A, de beds of the boys at one side and the beds of the girls at thee other. This was the first sleepover with the people who used to be in Elite, Max and Cierra. It was the first one with Amanda too, though she wasn't new in A-troupe, last year they just didn't have time for them and then james and riley broke up and all the drama with Hunter, Eldon and Michelle so it just hadn't happened. But here they were, the only person missing was Noah because he had 'an emergency' and would come later.

"What do you guys think of him, Noah I mean?" James had spoken up from beside Riley.

"He's so good, kind of the same style as Eldon. I would watch out if I were you Eldon!"

Everyone nodded their head, agreeing with the statement. "Yeah but he works crazy hard for it too. Have you ever watched him in studio B? After rehearsels he sometimes goes there and dances for hours, after the rehearsel of 2 hours. I mean who does that? All I want to do after those two hours is go down and shower." Giselle was braiding Michelle's hair in a perfect waterfall braid. "5 bucks he's in there right now!"

West held out his hand to shake: "I take that, who's coming with us to check"

Everyone from A-troup stood up at that, a sign that they would all come with. "Okay then, off we go"

Music was coming out of the speakers of studio A, the song 'mountains' playing. Michelle really liked that song, it reminded her a lot about Eldon and her. She kind of misses him. She misses it, what they used to have.

Giselle was already smiling in victory. "This doesn't automatically mean you won. Anyone can be in there!" West proclaims.

"Sure"

"Okay, but what do we say if he catches us? If he knows we know he dances here, maybe he won't come back?"

"We just say we were going to dress up. The costumes are in here!" James rolls his eyes.

"That's actually pretty smart, i'm impressed!" Thalia laughs, all of A troupe joining her except for James himself.

"Yeah, yeah let's go in."

Silently they open the door, careful not to disturb him. The song playing on repeat, like he was practising a routine.

What they saw was not what they were expecting at all. Noah was in there, and he was in fact practising a routine. With Richelle.

A troupe all wore confused expressions. They stood there for a while just looking at the duet until Michelle signed that they should head back to studio A. Once they were lying back on their makeshift beds everyone began talking at the same time.

"What was that all about??" "I didn't know Noah was together with Richelle?" " I thought he had this huge crush on Abi"

'GUYS, the duet doesn't automatically mean that they're together!" Giselle interrupted.

"Okay true." Everyone gave in.

"It just means we need to get them together." Giselle continued, smiling mischivously.

"Hell yeah" West high-fived her.

Giselle clutched his hand: "You still need to give me the money though, don't think i forgot about that."

"How about we just find out if they're together and then find out if he likes her. If the answer to the first one is yes and to the second is no, we don't need to do anything. Okay?" Michelle said.

"Yeah okay!"

They just finished a TV series when Noah walked in, freshly showered. West turned the TV off, and turned to face him. "Where have you been?"

"Just hanging out with Richelle. We used to do that so much, I kinda miss it... Did I say that out loud?" Noah said, blushing slightly rubbing his neck.

"Yeahhhh. How's Abi? I haven't seen her around anymore for a while now." West said curiously. Turning back to the rest of A troupe.

"Good. I mean I guess, we haven't spoken in a pretty long time now either." Noah sai, putting his field bed next to Eldon's. Ever since their duet and trick off they have been good friends. They danced the same kind of style, so it was a given that they would get along.

"Why's that?" Thalia asked, getting curious.

"She said something about me hanging out too much with Richelle. Wich is crazy since she's my best friend and it's normal to hang out with those. Anyway i don't care anymore." Noah said frowning a bit.

"Maybe she was jealous. And she saw you had a crush on her?" James said smirking.

"May- Hey dit you just say had a crush on her?" Noah said up straight.

"Well don't you??" Eldon said, sitting up too now.

"M-me a crush... on uh Richelle? wh-at nooo!!" Noah said blushing furiously, trying to turn away from the looks of his teammates.

"Sure!" James stood up, walked over just to mess with Noah's hair and walked back to site beside his girlfriend.

"Okay zo maybe i do, but don't tell her. She doen't feel the same and it would make things awkward. Even if she did feel the same, I would probably ruin it and our friendship would be ruined too, and i don't want that. Just no." Noah ranted.

By know everyone felt a little bad for him. "You don't know for sure that she doesn't like you."

"Yes i do. Don't ask me how, i just know. Other subject now please." Noah looked at Giselle pleadingly.

Richelle's pov:

After the duet i head straight to Hidalgo's. Ordering a juice that looked good i went to sit beside a window. Noah was having a sleepover now with A troupe. Wich i don't belong to, i don't belong to his people. I wasn't good enough, this was the second time i auditioned and i thought i went good, just not good enough. I wasn't good enough for a lot of things... Like i wasn't good enough for Noah.

It wasn't my choice to like him. If i had a choice i would've chosen someone in my league, not far, far out of it like Noah was. Noah liked girls like Abi, elegant and tall en pretty. Girls that laughed at everything he said, not a girl that always had a sassy reply. But she wasn't going to change for a boy. She was not. Someone was going to like her the way she was, though at the moment it hurt Noah didn't. She did notice that she was becoming softer around him, that was dangerous.

I pulled out my phone and started to play a game. 18:09 (6pm) It was still too early to go home, and no one fun was in Hidalgo's. I kept playing on my phone until i felt someone tapping me on my shoulder. Turning around, i saw Noah behind standing awkwardly with his hands clasped together behind his back. "Shouldn't you be at your sleepover", i said with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah that's actually what i came for: to ask you to come too. To the sleepover i mean." Noah answered me. scratching the back of his neck. He does that a lot, i thought to myself.

"Isn't the A troupe sleepover for, you know, A troupe?"

"Yeah but the girls wanted you to come." At that I raised both my eyebrows, "Me too, uh and the guys... yeah uhm. So do u want to come with me?" Noah held out his hand.

"Noah are u sure u want me to come. This isn't a dare or a prank right?" I said looking at him and behind him unsurely.

"Of course not! Come on." With that he grabbed my hand and pulled met along with him. We practically ran up the stairs and to the studio. Opening the door I stood still.

"Noah are you sure they want me here?" I looked at Noah.

He was just about to say something when Giselle interrupted: "Of course we want you here. You're super funny. Come on, let's get this party started." But before we turned around she winked at Noah and said: "Let's play truth or dare!"
