S I X T E E N : Avoiding

Start from the beginning
                                    

"who's crying? Why?" I flinched as Abby rolled in with everyone else behind her. I sighed and looked to the floor in shame. I can't exactly just say "oh yeah I just saw my best friend from my old studio and talked to her briefly about my dead mom I'm in the process of grieving" without ending up in trouble so I needed a good excuse to come up with quick.

"oh, I accidentally sprayed Florienity in the eye with hairspray" Lily blurted out, causing Abby to raise her eyebrows in doubt but she let it go.

I let out a breath before finishing getting ready for my duet.

June and It's duet was first, then Brady and Pressley, then Hannah and Lilly's was last.

"judges our next entry is a teen duet from Abby Lee Dance Company - please welcome entry number 56, The Weight Of Your Love"

Getting back stage, I lay on the floor panting with my arms above my head, my hands intertwining behind it to support it while I caught my breath.

June giggled with Pressley about something but I ignored it, closing my eyes briefly only to feel something cold against my neck.

I shot up into a sitting position and glared at Brady, grabbing the water bottle from him and chugging it down. He laughed and patted my head before offering a hand to pull me up.

The number before his duet came off - I told them good job even though I didn't pay attention before hugging both him and Pressley.

"Break a leg - y'all will be great" I snorted at June's y'all and she slapped my arm.
