As her long blonde hair twirled around her cream coloured head, Castiel couldn't help but wonder am I good enough?

Yes, Castiel (or Cass) is a ballerina. She absolutely loves every aspect of it, from the clothing to the elegant vibe you get from watching.

She was practicing for her performance. She will performing front of the judges, who will see if she is good enough for the advanced team.

Case was a nervous wreck. She really wanted to prove that she was a good enough dancer for the team, but she also doubted herself. There were some really good dancers looking to snag a spot on the advanced team.

----------

It was the morning of the judging. You could feel the tension in the air.

You would sit in the waiting room and wait for your name to get called. Cass was fidgeting with the one piece of hair that always refused to stick in the ballet bun. Most of the time, it drove her insane. But today she was relieved that she had something to calm her down.

Since they called names in alphabetical order by first name, Cass didn't have long to wait. She walked in, and was introduced to the judges.

The music started, and Cass danced exactly as she rehearsed. The anxiety started melting away as she felt truly free while dancing. The music fades away, marking the end of her performance. She looked at the judges, who were discussing and writing things down. She was dismissed, and she went out, feeling confident.

The next morning, the winners were announced on the pin board. Castiel rushed past the crowd and looked for her name on the sheet of paper.

Disappointment filled her as she scanned the list again and again, looking for her name, but couldn't find it. She walked back home, all depressed.

For a few days, she was really bitter about it. Every time someone mentioned it, she would say:

"Who cares anyway?" And would leave.

As she was sulking in her room, her eyes landed on her ballerina music box.

This box had a white exterior and pink interior. On the outside, the words "Don't stop believing" were engraved in gold cursive letters.

She suddenly snapped out of her bitter state, and remember that practice makes perfect. The greatest ballerina probably wasn't always great, she probably had hit some roadblocks too.

Cass played the music box, and started practicing again for next year, so she could finally achieve her dream.

Sorry for the link! Couldn't get the image on here :(

what's their dream?:
The claw stuck in the tips of her toes clicked as she paced the empty shop. A For Sale sign stood tall next to the shop. She was planning on buying the empty building to start a small coffee shop. The building was a former coffee shop that went out of business, and now the town was now lacking one. As she gazed as the dulling walls, a figure formed beside her, the landowner, and they greeted her.

She had practiced for this, and repeated the lines she had crafted so carefully to convince the landowner that she should own the building. Soleil told them her motivation, plans, and how much she's willing to pay in the most professional way she word it, which wasn't too professional due to her lack of experience, but she hoped that it would be enough. Once she was done, the landowner told her they would think about it, and see what other people had to offer before stalking off to their car. I hope I did well, she thought before trudging back to her car.

A few days later, a small letter flew in from the slot. Her eyes darted away from the book she was reading, to the letter. Soleil quickly got up and dashed to the letter, which didn't take long due to the size of her apartment. She barely avoiding a ball of white and light brown fur, and in response, another small ball rose. "Sorry, Vanilla!" She shouted to ball, who turned out to be a cat. Her hands quickly grabbed the letter, recklessly tearing it open with her fingers, and scanned the letter. "Dear Soleil, blah blah blah, where does it say that I did or didn't get the shop?" She muttered, her eyes quickly moving from line to line. "OH, found it! I... GOT THE SHOP!" Her voiced quickly raised. In response, she heard a knock on the wall, likely from her neighbor, and her cat sauntered off to a quieter place. "SORRY!"

- - -

Soleil drove to the building the next day, barely containing the excitement of almost achieving her dream. She darting out of her car and into the building once she got there. "I can't believe I got this place." Her eyes skittered from wall to wall. The walls were a pale shade of dark blue, an awful color for the insides of a coffee shop. What an ugly color for a coffee shop. The floor was just as dull and boring. "This building needs a lot of prettying up." She went back to her car, grabbing some paint cans, decoration, and needed materials for a coffee shop she bought the previous day. The paint she got consisted of shades of dull orange, red, and yellow, and the decorations were mostly fake autumn leaves and fake trees with autumn leaves. Soleil opened up the paint can, got out a brush, and got to painting.

- - -

About a week later, she finally completed decorating and setting the shop up. Not long after she had began, someone who said they were interested in possibly working there was willing to help out with the decorating, which killed a lot of time. The person were short, so Soleil had to help them quite a bit, but they were good at painting, really good. They also helped coming up with a name for the shop: Tasse à Café. "It's french for coffee cup, but I doubt too many people would notice," they said.

The first day of the coffee shop officially being open was a bit slow: only a few customers came due to the coffee shop just opening, but the next day was a bit busier. "I guess word got around that there was a new coffee shop," Soliel commented. Quite a few people commented that the coffee wasn't awful, unlike the previous coffee shop apparently, which wasn't surprising, and that it was pretty good. Two college students offered to work there, which she accepted, and since then the coffee shop only became busier.

- - -

A few months later, Tasse à Café had become a semi-popular place.
A lot of people chattered their heads off over the freshly made coffee, with only a few people now and then showing visible disgust.
"Well, it looks like my dream came true, I finally managed to open up a successful coffee shop,"
she told herself cheerfully, her eyes gleaming as she looked over the sea heads.

    { username; silentmelody | name; aimée (french for "dearly loved") | gender; female }

    " aimée is an artist and does all things related to art -- painting, sketching, sculpting, clay, and more. but what she really excells in are her geometric based canvases. she is often secluded and doesn't get out much, but the few people that have seen her art hung up in local art galleries compliment her endlessly. aimée finds this heart-warming, and she hopes to become world-renowned one day. her art expresses emotion from her past and beauty of the world around her. one of her best geometric paintings is one called "enraptured", a self-portrait of her looking up into a sunset. everyone that passes by stops to double-take and gaze in awe upon both her beauty and how she had captured it well.
