Riley prov

He knows, I have just screwed up our whole relationship. Four years down the drain. What is wrong with me. I'm walking up and back in my office. I almost forgot about the A troupe dance lesson started 15 minutes ago. I look back and everyone is looking at me.

Piper prov

We have been stretching for 15 minutes waiting for Riley. I'm nervous around her now because I'm the reason her relationship is over and I feel guilty. Then Richelle breaks my thoughts.

R: we have been stretching for 15 minutes when are we going to start
Amy: Riley look really stressed
Alfie: could have something to do with the last qualifier

I think this might have something to do with James. There break up. If I was her I would be the same but I can't talk I told James about her and Alfie.

AFTER DANCE

Richelle prov

It's 7 o'clock and I'm just heading out to the bus stop after being at      And I see Noah, not this again, he hasn't noticed me yet. I duck my head and move fast. I'm right at the door  and

N: Hey Richelle, where you going?

I'm done for. I have an hour and a half till I have to go. Yay. Why me.

R: to the bus stop
N: can I hang with you, I have to wait too

Noah prov

I have had to hang round late a few times and every time Richelle is waiting at the bus stop for I think her parents. So I asked my mum if I could stay late and she agreed so I can hang with Richelle and hopefully we can be the best of friends again.

R: sure Noah

She didn't sound happy to see me

N: ok let's go
R: so is you mum at another meeting
N: ahh....yeah
R: cool
N: it's been a long time since we've done this
R: we did this yesterday
N: I mean probably hang out, you know spend time with each other
R: yeah I guess
N: Richelle tell me honestly what happened to us
R: I don't know
N: Richelle I know you're lying
R: I'm not lying
N: I have known you for 3 years, you think I wouldn't know when you're lying
R: would you drop it already
N: fine
R: fine

Why does Richelle have to make it so hard for me. Why can't we just be friends. Nothing is working. Why Richelle

N: Richelle
R: yeah
N: do you remember when we were in J troupe and it was the end of year celebration and I smudged chocolate cake on your face and ......
R: and I grabbed a chunk of cake and threw it at your face
N: and the next thing we know
R: we had started the biggest food fight ever!

We both burst into laughter at the thought of the memory we shared. I think we might be one step closer to being friends again. I enjoyed seeing her smile again. It had been a long time since they had laughed like this. Her smile was beautiful, her eye sparkling, her hair curly and golden. Wait! What am I doing I have a girlfriend, but she never made me laugh as much as Richelle, stop it Noah.

R: it's 8:30 I better start walking home
N: your walking home?
R: well my brother isn't coming to pick me up
N: what about your parents?
R: there at work
N: ok bye
R: bye

Richelle prov

I liked hanging around Noah it reminds me of when we where young and he was innocent. But times have changed and I only like him as a friend nothing more nothing less, just a friend.
