Chapter Eleven

Charlie's Point Of View

"Charlie Campbell and Rainer Montana preforming to 'Can't Remember To Forget You' by Shakira." A loud voice boomed through the auditorium.

I took a deep breathe, and kissed Jake quickly on the lips as my good luck charm.
He squeezed my hand as Rainer grabbed my other one and pulled me on stage.

We stood side by side on the big wooden stage while looking at the two teachers.

"Are you guys ready?"

I look at Jake one more time before nodding as I saw him smile.

I was going to make Jake proud.

Rainer and I got into our positions and danced as soon as the song started.

We moved to the beat of the music and trusted ourselves to do the right thing.
We felt free when we were dancing, we let like we could do anything.

"Thank you ladies."
We looked at the two older woman and nodded.
"We will be in touch."

We walked professionally down the steps but when we were out of site, ran back to our seats.

I sat in Jakes lap as he puts his hands on either side of my waist.

"You guys did amazing!"

I kissed him and gave him a huge smile.

"Thanks." Smiled Rainer but her smile quickly faded after hearing the next performers name.

"Angel Carter preforming to "Shape Of You' by
Ed Sheeran."

"I bet you she's going to suck!"

Jake and I turn to look at Rainer and roll our eyes.

As soon as the music starts Angel starts dancing swiftly to the beat.
It was nothing like what Rainer and I did.

We went full out of the hip-hop while she is just swaying.

We for sure did a lot better than her!

"Let's go!" Rainer says she grabs my hand.
I grab Jakes hand and we make our way out of the auditorium like a little train.

"What is wrong Rainer?"

"Nothing. Let's just go!" She says as she walks off to her car.

"Don't."
I turn to look at Jake who is already giving me a glare.

"What?" I say back not knowing what I did.

"Don't go after her. She needs some time to cool down."

"Cool down from what?"

Jake steps closer to me and puts his hand around my waist.

"I don't understand Jake!" I whine as I lay my head on his shoulder.

"Dancing seems like her passion. Am I right?"

I shrug and then realize it.

Rainer only has her older brother, she needs that 2000 dollars! She needs it so she can go to college!

"Have you been talking to her?" I ask wondering how he knew something was off.

"I might be your boyfriend but I'm not dumb!" He says teasingly as I punch him in the arm.
