North-Wood Palm High

The music was faster than she thought it was. Her leaps had to be faster, her turns had to be sharper. It made Macey's head hurt trying to keep her feet pointed. After the first round, she gave herself a B average on precision. The dance studio was smothering hot, she needed air. Macey stepped out of the studio with her water bottle, not caring that she was still her pointe shoes and a leotard. She walked into the gym to see the boy shooting basketball. She watched him for a while, semi-conscious of how weird she probably looked to him. Not many people outside of the ballet world understood the concept of tights and tiny dancewear.
 
Mason looked at her "Uh yeah. Alone" he said with a smile he chuckled "unless there are spy's watching me, then I wasn't alone" he joked
 
"Well you never know here haha!" Macey said laughing. "I haven't shot a basketball since freshmen year, toss it to me."


She put down her water bottle and held out her hands for the ball.
 
"Okay, so, I'm really rusty buuuuut...." Macey bend her knees and then popped up onto her pointe shoes as she shot the ball, it swished through the hoop perfectly! Mae did a little pirouette and whooped happily! "Okay, that was probably just luck, but I'm proud of that right there!"
 
"Alissa? I like it. Nice to you meet you." Logan said. "Well I have to get to the gym, so here have this." he said handing Alissa a piece of paper with his number on it. "Text me." He said winking to Alissa as he turned around and walked to the gym. Logan heard talking as he got closer to the gym. He entered and saw a really pretty girl wearing dance clothes. He then noticed Mason there too. "Hey man." He yelled to Mason. "Uh hey, i'm Logan." he said to the girl.
 
Mason laughed "Nice job!" he said as he ran up to get the rebound. He smiled and winked at the girl "I was wondering what your name is?" he asked he looked at Logan "Bro hey" he said


Alissa smiled "Ok" she took the paper and entered the number into her phone. She looked at Logan and then grabbed her notebook and decided that she'd better head to the cheer room. She walked until she found it
 
Macey giggled and smiled at both boys, "I'm Mae, charmed to meet you two." She picked up her water bottle and looked at Mason, "By the way I hope my music isn't distracting you, I've been rehearsing pretty hardcore," She turned to Logan, "Sorry if I look silly." She pushed a bobbin pin back into her bun and leaned from side to side on her pointe shoes, stretching out her feet and arches. She didn't want to have to stretch again when she went back into the studio.
 
Mason smiled "Cool. Don't worry, you don't look silly, you look fine" he said with a smile "Don't worry, it wasn't distracting me; I hope that I wasn't too loud either" he said
 
"Well thanks guys," Mae said, "And no Mason you weren't." She looked at him with a grin, then snatching the basketball from him and leaping up to shoot it. It spun the rim and the fell down off the side of the hoop. "See, I told you it was just luck." Mae cracked her back and shoulders and then stepped away from the goal.
 
"Yeah, yeah, it's cause I got hops...or however they say it. I've been pretty out of the loop since I started really dedicating my life to spandex and ribbon." She gestured to her dancewear and laughed. "Anyway boys, I should really go practice some more before my muscles get all tight. But if you want soon, you can come watch me...I do better in front of an audience anyway, gives me some motivation to be perfect."
 
"Haha alright. Sounds good." Logan replied to Gabbi. He went and changed, and then came back to the gym. He came up behind Mason, and stole the ball from him and then shot it.
 
((Kelsey, its Macey...I had accidentally put my real name, which is Gabby, out of habit...which is really awkward but whatever haha. I corrected it. My character is Macey. I'm sorry lol.))


Mae, laughed at them and then pique turned out of the gym, ending with a high leap. She wondered what they thought of her as she entered the dance studio again.


They probably think I'm some overachieving Black Swan freak or something, She thought.


Pushing THAT out of her mind, she began the music again and started her routine over.


"Tombe pas de bourree, glissade, saute be basque, cabriole front and back...and TILT!"


Mae pushed through her shoes and tilted her body to the side as her leg kicked up, holding in a perfect 180 degree line, then stepped through for the next set of counts, which include plenty of turns.
 
Mae hadn't even noticed Mason step into the room, she was spotting her eyes in the mirror as she began a set of 10 foutte' turns. She whipped her leg out quickly, precisely, she was even amazed at herself. Her breath evened with the music as she stepped out of the turns and into a series of passe' followed by leaps. Before ending her set, she finished with a high firebird leap that extended so much, she nearly kicked herself in the back of the head. She ended in sous-sous, hands firmly on her hips and her head high. She never felt more powerful.
 
Mason chuckled "Right, hey did you find out more on that chick from this morning?" he asked he looked at Mae , she was pretty.
