The next day, Kiara was on her way to school when she got a message from Dina.
Dina: so how was the party?
Kiara: umm, it turned out to be good. I mean a lot happened and all
Dina: like?
Kiara: (explains everything that happened)
Dina: wait, you slept with Peter
Kiara: yep
Dina: OMG, I'm so happy for you
Kiara: stop making it sound like it's something special
Dina: of course it's special, I mean it's Peter. Let me guess, he's taking you to school
Kiara: yeah, he's right beside me driving
Dina: I bet he looks hot when he's focused
Kiara looks at Peter who was focused on the road, he noticed her gaze on him and he faced her. She quickly diverted her eyes back to her phone and he chuckled
Kiara: yes, he is
Dina: you and Peter are going to make a cute couple
Kiara: we are not a couple, no string attached remember. That's what he said the first time
Dina: that was the first time, not yesterday
Kiara: that's the same thing cyma said
Dina: wait, cyma?. She knows about these?
Kiara: yeah, I told her last night
Dina: you told her before me
Kiara: it's not a big deal, besides she came to pick me up immediately
Dina: you could have called and told me immediately too you know, that's what a phone is for
Kiara: c' mon, don't get angry over this. I'm sorry, next time I'll tell you first
Dina: yes, you know it's starting to feel like this cyma is your best friend
Kiara: no, you are my best friend
Dina: then why didn't you tell her I'm your best friend when you were introducing us, I had to say that on your behalf
Kiara: it's not much of a big deal, all I know is you are my best friend and you'll always be
Dina: that's better, keep it that way
Kiara: sure man
Dina: well, Dylan asked me to greet you and all. I'm heading to class now, talk to you later
Kiara: yeah, sure
" We're here" peter said parking
" Oh, okay" she said as she took her bag and left
" What's up with her, she's probably shy" Peter thought.
Kiara was walking in the hallway, she was already late for class when cyma caught up with her.
" There is our star of the show" cyma teased
" Is this still about Peter?"
" Of course"
" We don't like each other, what happened just happened... That's all"
" I hear you"
" That didn't sound convincing"
" So what do you know about music?"
" I sing, I play guitar"
" Nice" cyma said as they went in
" Hey" Dani said approaching them
" Dani" Kiara says greeting him
" Hi" cyma said
" Dani, meet cyma.. my partner in crime" Kiara said
" Cyma, this is Dani. The guy I told you about, from tennis"
" Oh, Dani. Nice meeting you" cyma said
" My pleasure, you look great"
" Thanks" cyma said
" Alright, enough of the chit chat. Everyone gather around, we will be testing your abilities in the next 5 mins" the music teacher said
" So what instrument do you play?" Kiara asked Dani
" Bass guitar"
" I play piano"
"Piano?, you don't look like some one interested in piano"
" You don't look like someone interested in bass guitar as well"
" Yeah, it's like both of you personality matches the instrument of the other" Kiara said
" We can put it like that" cyma said
" So, we can make our own band" Dani said
" We are gonna need a drummer for sure" cyma said
" We will find one" Kiara said looking over at a guy that was drumming by the side.
The ballet club was booming with new intakes, Tiffany the leader and Jenna, her assistant were having hard time to cope with them all. Elena came in and went straight to the dressing room, Jenna noticed and followed her.
" Hey, what are you doing?" Jenna asked as she my Elena emptying her locker in her bag
" I'm packing if you aren't blind" Elena said still packing up
" Why?, don't tell me it's because of this small argument we had last night. I mean c'mon, don't be so childish"
" You always think everything is about you"
" What else could it be, first you didn't join the swimming team like we did in middle school and now you don't want to join the ballet group after we got a huge spot in it"
" You know what, I didn't join cause no matter how much I'm better than you at both... I'll just have to let you take the first position but not anymore I can't let you out do my shine anymore. It's fine we did things differently and separate for good"
" Oh, and I already deleted your number... You should do the same. Here, everything that represents our friendship is in that bag. Our friendship necklace, bracelet, hoodie, pouch, whatever... It all in there. This all ends here" she added as she dropped the bag right in front of her
" Fine, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that, I accept that i'm at fault but don't quit the team"
" You're only saying that because you don't want to disgrace yourself, since you can't even make a small twirl. All theses years, I've been dancing in your place under that foolish mask that you lie to people about it being your lucky charm that's why you're always wearing it .. but not anymore. Now, you do your things yourself. All by yourself" Elena said before leaving
" Jenna, you're up next" Tiffany said calling her out
" What?, but I'm already in"
" Yeah, but you should set an example"
" Uh... I really can't today. I'm having a stomach upset, I'll pass. Maybe some other time" Jenna said leaving in a hurry.
Coach Lari summoned the captain to her office, but only Angela came.
" Sorry I'm late, I had things to tend to" Victoria said
" It's unusual of you to be late, so I'll take this excuse only this time" coach Lari said
" As I was saying to Angela before you came, I will be out of town for a while so coach Henry will be seeing you guys through" she added
" But we haven't even met this coach" Angela said
" He should be here anytime soon, I don't know what's keeping him this long" coach Lari said
" I thought lateness is against the policy" Victoria said
" Except you have a good reason, you also came late" a man said approaching them
" Mr H?" Victoria thought
" Someone advised me to enroll my brother in this school, so I was completing the formalities"
" I know you must have your reason, pardon Victoria for her rudeness. She's kind of blunt sometimes, that's why she makes a good vice captain" coach Lari said
" I didn't take it to heart" Mr H said
" So, this is Coach Henry. Your new assistant coach " coach Lari said
" Coach Henry?" Victoria said looking at him confused and he smiled
" Yes, coach Henry" he said to Victoria answering her sarcastic question
" Of course, no wonder he's so good at tennis" she thought
" I'm Angela, the captain of the tennis team" she said in a sweet tone, stretching her hand for an handshake and twitching her eyelashes. Things she does if she's trying to impress a guy.
Victoria scoffed as he received her hand shake, he's is going to be all girl's crush now especially Angela.
" Victoria right?" He said stretching his hand out to her for an handshake
" Yes" she said shaking him and Angela gave her a death glare but she just shook her head
" Is that all coach?" Victoria asked
" Yes, you may leave now" she said and they were heading out
" Angela, I need you for something. Come with me" coach Lari said and they left together
" So vice captain huh?"
" Why did you lie?"
" Lie?, about what?"
" Being the asst. Coach"
" I didn't lie, you never asked"
" So you were not going to tell me"
" What good will it do if you knew" he asked and she sighed
" It's nice knowing you coach Henry" she said about to leave but he held her back
" How is your shooting now?" He asked
" You seriously going to pretend that all is fine?"
" Okay, I'm sorry. I should have told you, but why are you so angry about it" he says and she paused
" That's a great question, why I'm so angry about it. He does have a point, what's the difference between telling me now or telling me then... Is it because... Because I had an open heart for mr H but now that he's coach Henry I don't think it's appropriate to have feelings for him especially when I'm the vice captain" she thought
" What are you thinking about?" He asked
"Nothing, it does make any difference" she said leaving
Tyler and Leo were on their way to the art gallery for their class.
" Hey, you sure you want to do photography" Tyler asked
" Yes"
" You don't have a camera"
" Yeah, I know. I'll sort it out soon"
" Here" he says bringing out a camera from his bag
" You didn't have to"
" What are friends for, besides it was just sitting in the house for years now. My dad hasn't used it at all, he said it was a gift from his first love" Tyler said and Leo checked the camera and saw Clara name encrypted on it
" It sure is from his first love" Leo said
" I'll see you later then, time to go" Tyler said entering his studio.
Elena went to the robotics class, she was smart and a miss perfect for sure. She was trained to be good in everything and also to be a puppet to Jenna till they were in control of the city.
" Hey" Vinny said approaching Elena
" Should I say I'm not surprised to see you" Vinny said
" I mean I knew you were smart and you're also fighting with Jenna so you'll probably want to change classes"
" How do you know I'm fighting with Jenna?"
" It's obvious and it's bound to happen since you're dating her ex"
" Her ex?, you can't call it that. And how do you even know me and Leo are dating?"
" I guessed, and it's obvious"
" Phew!, I thought Leo told them about last night" she thought
" Have you seen him today?" Vinny asked
" No, not yet. Why?"
" He looks so happy today and I think you might know the reason why"
" I don't"
" Excuse me, is this the robotics team" a girl with glasses asked
" Yeah" Vinny said looking at the girl beside her. She was tall, slender and very pretty. She had a good fashion sense and also cute looks. She was like a diva.
Elena noticed Vinny staring at the girl throughout the class and if they eyes met, he would look away quickly
" You know if you have a crush on her, you should approach her" Elena said as they left the class
" Hell no, crush on who?"
" Denying it, huh. I'll leave you to it then but if you need my help, I'll gladly help" she said leaving and Vinny sighed before going after her
Leo was at the rooftop as usual, he was looking for something to snap but he wanted his first picture to be something special, something worth it.
" I knew I would find you here" cyma said approaching
" Hey" Leo said
" Thanks for yesterday "
" What are friends for" he said and she smiled
" Smoke?" She asked
" Nah, I'm good" he said still looking around
" Why are you here, having trouble with something?"
" Yeah, I need to snap something amazing as my first picture"
" Something amazing huh?"
" Yeah, something worth it"
" I think I have just the right thing"
" What's that?"
" Us"
" Huh"
" The group, we can take a group picture"
" That's calm but I need something specific like a single entity"
" Well, you'll surely find something. It's you after all, you always figure it out" she said smoking
Leo was looking around for the last time when he sighted Kiara at the balcony receiving fresh air. The breeze blowing her hair, her face facing the sun, her smile, her posture, her hand on the railing, her face in front as she smiled as the breeze touched her. Her stretching her legs so she could reach a good position.
" Perfect" he said as he zoomed in and took a nice picture
" I knew you would find" cyma said giving him the cigarette
" No" he said giving her back
" Don't tell me you've changed"
" I'm not just in the mood" he said
