A Unique Crossover

Chapter33: Another sort of Catfish

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's seven thirty in the morning, I was sitting in the big travelling bus that Sapphire would always use whenever we go to the hall centre. Watching the sun rise on this beautiful and chilling Saturday morning through the window, listening to music in the comfortable seat. From Tuesday till yesterday, I've been working my head off creating and polishing another choreography without anyone knowing about it.
Nearly every day, whenever I get the chance, I would practice it at the space bow, because it was the safest space where I could practise.

Ever since the whole video of my solo getting leaked to Stephanie, I wasn't able to tell any of my friends fully about my new choreography for Spotlight. Only bits and pieces of details which sucks, because they've really helped me with the first one and it just feels so unfair that I can't let them know so much about this new one.

Though I had Frankie help me out with the music for the new choreography which he promised not to tell anyone until after today when they watch me dance from the live video on Spotlight's website. Since they all have to work today.

I've been avoiding David since our argument on Tuesday, no matter how many times he calls or text me, I wasn't interested in anything that he had to say. Although Penny was upset about what he had done, she would try to get me to talk it out with him which she has been unsuccessful in. I'll only be able to speak to David maybe after today, when I'm no longer too angry and want to punch him in the face whenever I see him.

It's the first time that I've not spoken to him for this long which kinda feels unnatural and non-normal. It's like a part of my brain almost can't get through the day without saying at least five words to him which was so weird and abnormal for me. Even now, I was re-reading his 'Good morning' message where he tells me have a spare sweater since it was a cold morning.

One of the things that he always does, he always send me a 'Good morning' message and tells me what the weather might be like and he's always right. Can't believe that I'm struggling to send a message to a guy.

Two fingers tapped on my shoulder while burning my nose with the overpowering perfume snapped me out of enjoying the sun rise, turning to the cunning leopard snake who was smiling at me, "Hey Jennifer."

"Can I help?" I asked with a bored tone of video, plainly showing Stephanie that I have very little interests in her and whatever reason she wanted to talk to me. While knowing that she would ignore it nevertheless, because I'm not only her imagining foe, but also her little booster to lift her spirits or whatever.

"Just wanna say good luck for your solo today." Stephanie said in a sweet voice that sounded like plastic and was causing my insides to twist. Knowing that she has my solo in her hands, she could easily tell Mrs Robertson that I don't have anything to perform for Spotlight and have her dance the choreography that I've made by myself.

Unfortunately that plan can't work since I have a new dance that she or anyone knows of. "And if you need any points for the solo, know that I'm here for you."

Returning her smile about to her before saying with the same sweet tone as hers, "Thanks, but I have everything that I need for the solo covered."

Her small laugh was more fake than her smile was, "You really think that Mrs Robertson will actually allow you to do that pointless dance of yours after what happened on Tuesday? Wow, you must be more dull than I actually thought."

Rolling my eyes at her so called compliment before doing something that I haven't done since I was in middle school. Taking three fingers, forming an 'W', 'E', 'M'; 'L' in front of my forehead before ending off with a smile, enjoying the laughter that I was getting from most people who turn to watch the two of us argue.
