door to the dance studio area and smile. I get my music all set up an ready to go, I do my stretches, and I begin. Being here and working on my dance reminds me of Juiliard. I can't believe I actually have an offer to go there of all places! I never thought my dancing was that special your average... but I'm not complaining either.  Although... I don't want to go to Juiliard. I was thinking more not in a big city like New York! A state college for sure, but also closer to home. I thought I wanted to be a teacher, but I've also considered  something in law. Not police officer, but like a lawyer.

 

I pause taking a quick couple breaths, Gosh I'm a junior this year... I'm going to be a senior. I should start thinking about college and my future. I've alway known I was going but I never actually thought about what for and where. I change the song, not wanting to to keep doing the same routine. After about another hour of dancing, I decide I should probably stop. I'm sweating, a gross sweat to. Worry and anxiety are adding to it. Grabbing my things I leave shutting off all of the lights and running to my car. Everyone is probably sleeping, from the game yesterday. Once I'm back inside my dorm I see a couple girls who are up and awake. The three of them all stare at me for a minute... more like glare at me for a minute straight. I wave my hand at them, unsure what I did to them. Once I walk past the kitchen, I pause hearing there whispers. I can't hear exactly what they're saying, but it's gossip... it's about me!?  I almost turn around to ask them, but I decide against it.  I just push it away and go up to my room. Once I'm actually in my room my phone starts ringing, and I answer Jake's call.

 

"Hi." I answer the phone. Setting down my bag, I look at my reflection. Jeepers did I get a workout. That's probably what they were talking about, the way I look. 

 

"Hey... I have a favor to ask you." He says, I stand up straight. What could that mean? I mean I told him that I would give him another date. I'm not good at this kind of stuff. I rub my forehead.

 

"Depends.." I reply.

 

"It's my mother birthday on Wednesday, and we have a performance that night my family is going to come to." He begins, and I listen closely. "After the performance, the family is going to go out for dinner."

 

"You need me do to something?" I ask confused.

 

"Come with me." He says flatly. My eyes go wide. Now he wants me to be at an important family dinner!? I mean I've meet his whole family... well imediate family. His parents are nice, and so are his siblings.

 

"Jake... I don't know. This sounds important, I don't want to be unwelcome." I walk over to my desk sitting in the chair.

 

"Paige, come one please. I thought I would actually tell you what we would be doing instead of having it be a surprise." He says, and it makes me smile. He planned on bringing me even if i say no. I can tell. "I'm taking your silence as a yes!" He says.

 

"Fine." I lean back, then I twirl the chair around. "Is it like right after the performance?"

 

"I'm going to meet them at the place... so no worries about being rushed." He explains.

 

"Alright.. it's a date." I look over at my window. The sun is already starting to set, I was at the gym for a lot longer then I thought. How is everyone still sleeping though? Maybe they aren't now, maybe they're all just out enjoying the nice weather and since it's Sunday everyone probably having study groups and finishing up homework.

 

"It sure is!" I can just picture his smile, and that makes me worry. Jake and I have done everything backwards. But yet here we are... I hope it works out for the best. "See you in the morning?" He asks. 

 

"Yeah." I smile, then we say goodbye.  I hang up the phone, and toss it on to my desk. Another meal with his family. I wonder if Jason will be there... I'm guessing so.  Gosh I really hope everything works out for the best. I go through my dance bag after a couple minutes taking everything out and cleaning it. Then I get in the shower again, washing my hair. Once I'm out, I brush through it, and braid it so it will be nice and wavy tomorrow. I also check my email, and I face time with Patrick for a while.

 

When ever the two of us face time the topic of boyfriends and girlfriends always comes up.  Like tonight, even thought we'd just seen each other a week or so ago for spring break. We were both single, and how much could change in that short time? ... A lot. I don't tell hm about Jake. I decide to just not mention it yet. I mean we've only had  one date that doesn't mean anything. Besides... Patrick is practically shoving Robbie down my throat. I told him about how I found out about Robbie and Carmen. He told me I shouldn't be so mad, that it's teenage stuff, and that I need to just give Robbie a chance. I tell him that Robbie and I will never be together like that, in fact right now I don't know if we will work out this fight right now. I guess he has tried to work it out a little bit, but I still am mad at him! Cheating and cheaters. I will never understand them and how they can do what they do. 

 

Patrick and I leave things a a some what bad note, still not agreeing about the whole Robbie and Carmen thing. We still say goodnight, but there is a ruff edge there now. I toss my phone to the ground from my bed deciding I can sleep now, what the heck. That's when my door just about gets busted down. 

 

"Hold on I'm coming!" I yell getting up. I swing open the door, and Carmen is there. She is smiling, yet she seems mad.  "What?" I ask, I'm really not in the mood for her right now. 

 

"Tell me it isn't true!" She just waltz's in. Past me making herself comfy in my desk chair. I watch her not comprehending. 

 

"What?" I ask again not closing my door. I don't plan on havinga here a a while. "You're making no sense."

 

"You little fox you!"She smiles more standing up. Shaking her head in disbeleif. Okay has she taken something?  Drunk? I look at her eyes and theey look okay. What in the hell?!

 

"Fox? Excuse me?" I say, closing my door seeing she isn't going anywhere.  "Are you high?"

 

"No, but you must be!" she throws her arms in the air. Now I'm for sure lost. Me take drugs? I don't even like joking about that stuff! "Why didn't you tell me! Oh my god, how long has it been going on!?"  She is in my face now. 

 

"How long what?" I say trying to remain calm. 

 

"You and Jake!" She  grabs my shoulders and shakes me. I can feel the blood drain from my face, and my jaw is more then likely touching the ground.  "Yeah... how long did you think it would take for people to find out? Apparently a bunch of his friends saw you guys last night... what happened?" 

 

"He just... walked me home.." I say, leaving out the date. 

 

"From?" She asks. 

 

"His dorm.." I say, and then I almost smack myself. That's the wrong answer.It's the true answer, but not the answer she needs to hear. She smiles at me more and shakes me wanting details. How is she not mad at me right now? Has she just compleetely forgotten the past couple days?  "I went for a walk... and he was leaving his dorm just as i was walking by... he walked with me." 

 

"Yeah sure..." She smiles. 

 

"What ever...Is that all you wan-"

 

"I can't believe it.... you, the girl who said never, is the one who broke him." She lets go of me and stares at me in disbeleif again. Broke him?  I don't think so.  "You have no idea?" She says. I rub my forehead still not sure exactly what's going on. "Paige it's already all across school. You two are a couple. Official couple." She crosses her arms happy to be the one to tell me information like this. "Neither of you have denied it... in fact niether of you has said a word..." She eyes me suspiciously now.

 

"I... what?" I ask, my mind is swirling. It's around school? Official couple! Couple.... COUPLE! I sit down on my bed.

 

Oh my god.

 

"Yeah you're going to tell me you have no idea what I'm talking about." Carmen crosses her arms looking down at me. 

 

"I want to sleep." I shake it off. I'll talk to Jake about it tomorrow, we can sort out everything then. I get up and start ushering her towards my door. "Just keep quiet okay." I add and then close my door so she can't say anything else. I turn the lights off, and snuggle under my blanket. I stare at the ceiling, wondering what's going to happen tomorrow. The whole school apparently thinks Jake and I are a couple! That's huge! One, because Jake isn't ever in realationships. Two, because I'm never in relationships... of course I wasn't  sleeping with any one too. What on earth does everyone think about it? I mean, his friends and mine? Well, I know how Carmen feels... and the only other person that I can think of is Robbie. Oh god Mr. Parker! 

 

Curling into a ball I go over how tomorrow can go, in my head. 

Chapter 40- Break

Paige's POV

 

This morning is definately a new expirience for me. Now that the news has all spread that Jake and I are together, everyone is acting strnagely. I'm getting stared at, with dagger eyes  and eyes of girls who are in awe of me ... taming Jake Lincoln. I ignore it. No one even comes up and talks to me, but I catch thirteen different girls just in my dorm staring at me. They all look away as if nothing is wrong, and they start whispering to another girl. I grab a pop tart for the road, and decide to just get to pratice. I park my car, check my reflection in my mirror. Yes, I do want to look nice today. My hair turned out very nice, and I decided to wear my one and only romper I have. It's black with white flying bird outlines as pok-a-dots. Grabbing my things I head inside and go in the back. I set my bag down in the usual spot, and I go over to the costume rack grabbing my dress. There are other people here, already changed and ready to begin. Again stares and whispers.

 

Once I half my hair up into the ponytail, I leave the locker room.  Priority list at the moment, get dress zipped, talk
