Here is the next chapter. I hope you enjoy it. This chapter will center on Branden and Deylia in New York for his NYU audition. It will also have a some General POV
New York University?
Deylias POV
I have been keeping a secret from my parents. It's not that bad of a secret but I knew they would be mad if they find out. I got kicked out of the dance teem last week for skipping to many practices. I was trying to avoid see Brandon so I purposely didn't go to after school practices. We had a new teacher and she was a lot stricter then the dance teacher we had last year. My mom wants me to do this fashion show thing for her and I only told her yes because she is my mom and I love her. My moms fashion show just so happens to be during the same weekend that I was originally supposed to go to NYU with Branden. I assume that isn't happening anymore since Branden and I are still not talking. I was sitting alone at lunch today because Bella was sitting with JT, and Tyler was sitting with Katie. Brandon sat down at the same lunch table that I was sitting at.
"Where's your lunch buddy? I asked referring to Rochelle
"She is sitting with her sisters today." Branden said and then pointed to Rochelle, Elizabeth, and Rosie eating lunch together.
"There's an empty table over there so why don't you just go sit there." I said
"It makes no sense for both of us to sit alone." Branden said
"Well until now you weren't talking to me." I said
"I was mad at you and I needed sometime to think about us." Branden said
"Please tell me you want to get back together and fix our relationship." I said
"No, I still think we need some time apart but I realized that my NYU audition is this weekend and If we are going to spend the weekend in NYC together then this not talking to each other thing isn't going to work." Branden said
"You still expect me to go with you to New York City." I said
"Yes, I need you or I don't have an audition for NYU's Dance program." Branden said
"Well I was under the impression that you didn't want me to go. I have other plans for this weekend so I can't go with you anymore." I said
"Those other plans better not be with JT." Branden said
"No, my mom wants me to help her out with a fashion show. Trust me I'd rather be dancing then modeling." I said
"If you go with me to NYC we can go see Taylor Swift perform live Thursday morning on Good Morning America." Branden said
"Do you mean Live in the audience live right, not just live on TV?" I asked
"I bought 2 VIP tickets and meet and great passes when I found out that I was going to be in NYC for my audition. I know you said you would go with me before we had that fight but I really need you to go with me or I'm not getting into NYU." Branden said
"Are you still leaving after school on Wednesday and coming back on Sunday afternoon?" I asked
"That is the plan, so will you go with me or not." Branden said
"It depends, If we get into another fight, Are you going to leave me in New York like you left me at the airport a few weeks ago." I said
"No, I'm never going to do that again. Your parents talked to me about that." Branden said
"Yes, but I haven't even told my parents about this New York thing yet so if they say no then I'm sorry Branden." I said
"I truly believe that we can work out our issues over time. It's normal for couples to take a break from time to time." Branden said
After school I went home. I already started packing for my 4 day trip to New York with Branden. We wouldn't be leaving for 2 more days but I was excited for it.
"Home already, I thought you had dance team after school." Tyler said
"I got kicked off the team last week for skipping to many practices. Please don't tell mom and dad." I said
"You can't keep that from them forever." Tyler said
"I just need to get through this weekend and then I will tell mom and dad." I said
"I get it, you don't want to upset mom before the fashion show." Tyler said
"I'm not helping her with that anymore." I said
"Why not?" Tyler asked
"This thing came up and I didn't really want to help her anyway." I said
"Does this thing have anything to do with why you are packing?" Tyler asked
"Branden needs me to go to NYC with him for his NYU audition." I said
"So you two are talking again?" Tyler asked
"Yes but that doesn't mean we are back together. He did buy us Taylor Swift tickets so I have to find some way to thank him." I said
"If he bought you Taylor Swift tickets then I think he still loves you. You still wear that promise ring he gave you for your 17th birthday so I know you still love him." Tyler said
"Like I would trust your relationship advise, Bella is still really hurting from what happened at homecoming and we saw you at the movies the other night with Katie." I said
"Once Bella finds another boy she will forget all about me." Tyler said
"No she won't. She will always love you Tyler. She is still wearing that charm bracelet you bought her for your 6 month anniversary together." I said
"Well I can't win her heart back now." Tyler said
"I think you could if you tried." I said
Later that night at dinner, I told my mom that I couldn't do the fashion show anymore and that I was going with Branden to NYC for a few days.
"No, you promised that you would help me with the fashion show." My mom said
"Just get someone else to take my place. Bella wears almost the same size as me. I'm sure she would love to do it. After all she was born and raised in the fashion capital of the world." I said
"You promised you would do the fashion show for your mom and you are not going to back out of it last minute." My dad said
"I only said I would do the fashion show because at the time I had noting better to do. I already told Branden I was going to New York with him because NYU won't audition him without me." I said
"I will do the fashion show mom." Darcy said
"Thanks for offering but you are to young. If I needed kid models I would ask you." My mom said
"I'm only going to be missing 2 days of school, and I can get the work before I leave so I can be all caught up before I go back to school on next Monday." I said
"We still don't want you going." My mom said
"This is really important to Branden." I said
"No matter how much you beg us to say yes, the answer is going to be no. You can't follow him everywhere. No matter where Brandon goes to college next year you have one more year of high school. You have your future to think of and following Branden to New York is not an option." My dad said
Just because my parents said no, it wasn't going to stop me from helping Branden. I had a plan, Once I was in New York with Branden my parents couldn't make me come home. Before bed Tyler and I had another conversation.
"Sorry mom and dad don't want you going to New York with Branden." Tyler said
"I don't get it. They used to think of Branden as family and now they act like they don't like him." I said
"Your not the only one that they are giving a hard time about things. Mom and Dad don't want me going back to sports right away." Tyler said
"Did you get the doctors clearance yet?" I asked
"No, but my knee is fine. Even though the Basketball coach won't let me play a game I've done the warm up drills and I get to play in practice games. I may not be as good as I used to but I can still play the game well." Tyler said
"A no from our parents isn't going to stop me from going with Branden." I said
"I would try and cover for you but since you would be gone for a few days I don't think that's really possible." Tyler said
It was Wednesday morning and my dad had already left for work. I put was able to put my suitcase in my car without anyone noticing. Tyler drove with me to school. I met Branden in the parking lot and I put my suitcase in his car. I also gave Tyler my car keys because he would be driving my car home. After school Branden and I were on our way to New York. I was in the passenger seat meaning I could control the music.
"How did you convince your parents?" Branden asked
"I didn't actually convince them. No matter how hard I tried they weren't going to say yes. I couldn't let you down so whatever trouble I get in for this it will be worth it." I said
General POV
Around 6 PM Tyler got home from school and Basketball after school.
"Wheres your sister?" Caleb asked
"I think she had plans with Bella." Tyler Lied
"Don't cover for her." Caleb said
"I really don't know where she went." Tyler Lied
"Why are you getting home so late anyway?" Caleb asked
"I had Basketball after school. I know I can't play in an actual game but I had to be there for the team." Tyler said
"Tyler, the doctor told you that if you went back to soon then you could risk another injury." Caleb said
After dinner Hanna and Caleb where discussing what to do about Deylia.
"I should just drive to New York City and go pick Deylia up." Caleb said
"We don't even know for sure if she is in NYC." Hanna said
"Yes we do, I tracked her cell phone. If I left now I could have her back home by Midnight as long as the traffic is light." Caleb said
"You have to be at work early tomorrow morning." Hanna said
"I'm not concerned about work. I'm more concerned about my daughter." Caleb said
"Did you try calling her?" Hanna asked
"I called her cell and she didn't answer. I even called Brandens but it went directly to voice mail." Caleb said
"I'm concerned about Deylia as well but she isn't in New York City alone. Branden will make sure that nothing happens to her." Hanna said
"NYC is big. Don't forget Branden left her at the Philadelphia airport less then a month ago and you had to pick her up." Caleb said
"We talked to Branden about that and he promised he would never do something like that again." Hanna said
"What are you going to do about the fashion show?" Caleb asked
"I'll just ask Bella to help if I have to." Hanna said
Deylias POV
I was already having a fun time in NYC with Branden. We were standing in a large crowd because we were about to see Taylor Swift perform live on GMA. Luckily we were towards the front. Branden and I were holding hands. It was almost like we had no relationship problems at the moment. After the Taylor Swift concert we spent the rest of the day touring the city.
On Friday Branden and I toured the entire NYU campus. It was a really large school. I could tell that Branden really wanted to go to this school. I had to make sure he achieved his dreams. On Saturday Branden and I both auditioned for the NYU dance program. Who knows maybe I will also end up going to NYU. our dance audition was pretty good. It could have been better because we hadn't really rehearsed since nationals. We used the same song and dance that we preformed at nationals. "All of Me" was my favorite song at the current time. Branden even kept the choreographed kiss at the end of the dance.
"If I don't get into NYU after that audition then the school doesn't know what there missing." Branden said
"I know this is your dream school but the NYU dance program is one of the most competitive dance programs in the world. You saw how many people where auditioning today." I said
"You think I'm not going to get in?" Branden said
"That's not what i'm trying to say. Not everyone that auditions can get in." I said
"I know that but with all my dance experience I have a pretty decent chance of getting in." Branden said
"Can we talk about worlds?" I asked
"Yes." Branden said
"I just want to know if you still want to compete with me?" I asked
"Of course I do Deylia, I promise we won't let our dancing be affected because of how our relationship is right now." Branden said
After lunch the next day we drove home. It was Sunday so I had school tomorrow. Branden dropped me off at home around 3 PM.
"Can we talk to you?" My mom asked
"Later, I have homework to do." I said
"We need to talk now, you can do your homework after." My dad said
"Look, I'm sorry for going to New York with Branden but he really needed me or his NYU dream would be over." I said
"We didn't give you permission to go. I had to stop your dad from driving to NYC and taking you home." My mom said
"You really would have done that dad?" I asked
"Yes." My dad said
"I had a feeling when your dad and I said no you where going to go anyway." My mom said
"Then why didn't you just give me permission in the first place? If you had done that then I wouldn't of had to sneak off like that." I said
"We give you almost everything you want Deylia, the one time we try and tell you no you go behind our backs and do it anyway." My dad said
"I won't do it again, I promise." I said
"Explain to us why you got kicked off the dance team?" My mom asked
"I quite because I needed to rest my back so I could compete with Branden at Worlds." I lied
"Lying isn't going to get you out of this Deylia." My dad said
"Did Tyler tell you I got kicked off?" I asked
"Deylia, your dance teacher was at my charity fashion show. She saw your name on the list of models and showed up to support you. Only modeling in your place was Bella. She talked to me afterwords about how you were skipping practices and when you didn't have a good enough excuse for missing practices she kicked you off the team. She told me that she was going to give you a second chance when she found out that you were in this fashion show. Then I told her about how you decided to go to New York city with Branden instead of doing the fashion show. She thought it was really great that you were helping Branden out with his NYU audition. She told me to tell you that if you show up to practice after school tomorrow she will consider giving you your spot on the dance team back." My mom said
"I promise I will try and never miss another dance practice again." I said
"You need to tell your dance teacher that, telling us does no good for you." My dad said
"Thanks for talking to her for me." I said
"You still should have told me when it happened. I shouldn't of had to hear from your dance teacher." My mom said
"Are we done with this conversation now?" I asked
"We don't think it is a good idea for you to see Branden outside of school and dance." My dad said
"You can't do that to me. Branden said he wanted to try and work things out between us." I said
After my parents where done talking to me, I did all my homework.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter because I did. Right now the relationships are kind of mixed up but that is only temporary.
