High school for the arts

I let out a sigh as the bell rings, and I stop dancing. If I could, I'd stay here all day with him, but I knew it wasn't possible. "Okay," I say to him, kissing him back. I pause for a moment, looking into his eyes, as if by some way I could tell what he was thinking just by staring at him, but it didn't work.

Eric made sure when she was looking at him that nothing would slip through so she still would have no idea. Eric sighed and grabbed his things and walked out of the theater. He walked to the directors office and explained his new situation. The director sighed. "They always have to make drama don't they? I guess your mother is an actress so it makes some sense. I will take care of the paperwork. Just sign it and give it back now." He said and Eric did as told. He added that he hasn't told Rosemary yet and to please keep his secret. The director sighed but agreed not too happy about it. The director called his instructor and told him he would not be back for class and then called his parents and tried to talk to them. Eric watched as the director had no luck getting them to change their minds. Eric talked a bit more and then went back to the stage since the director said he would not be in that class at all and wrote some music.

I headed off to dance class, and as soon as I walked in the room, everyone started clapping. Oh geez, I really don't like this. Despite my best efforts to hide in the back, everyone insists I stay towards the front as we go across the floor. The teacher even has me demonstrate a few moves. Yeah, this is bad.

(( Idea for even more drama but it'll break my heart lol. What if after a while Rosemary finds out from someone other than Eric about him getting kicked out, so instead of telling him she knows and trying to convince him to break up with each other, she acts as if she doesn't like him anymore and breaks up with him so he can go back home ))

That is horrible! But I like it. We can do it. She can find out from Lexie because she always wants to ruin their relationship. Poor Eric!)

Eric played the piano. He played the music really getting into it. It was a great escape for him. He was so happy to be playing the music. He had just finished the song that he wanted to do a duet with Rosemary with. He started to work on a new one.

(( Yeah, I feel so bad, Rosemary will be just as heartbroken. It'll kill her to have to pretend not to like him, but she knows it'd be the only way he would agree to go back to his parents. ))

When she sent everyone out to get water, I walked away from the others. I didn't need water, I needed a break from people. Sitting down in the hallway, I start to take some deep breaths, relaxing a bit.

(Eric will be crushed too!)

Eric walked out and walked down the hall needing to just walk for a bit. He was so lost in his thoughts, he did not even notice Rosemary as he walked past her. He sighed quietly.

[art_dancer]

(( Yeah, but they'll find their way back to each other eventually, they have to! lol ))

I frown as I see Eric walk by. Shouldn't he be in class? Silently, I stand up from my place on the floor and follow him, hoping to find out what has been wrong.

(I agree with you)

Eric sighed and pulled out his phone. He had sent a text to his dad to try to talk to them and still no response. He decided to try to call them and hope for an answer. He called and shook his head when they did not answer. He hung up and put his phone in his pocket before he turned around and looked at her. "Oh hey...Are you following me?" He asked her.

[art_dancer]

I frown as I watch him try to text and call someone. I wondered who he was trying to contact. My cheeks turn red as he turns around, embarrassed that he caught me following him. Looking down, I tell him softly, "yes... but only because I'm worried about you. You've just been acting a little off, but I didn't want to force you to tell me if you didnt want to tell me." So instead of bugging him about it and making him tell you, you're sneaking around so you can find it out anyways? Very nice, Rosemary. Yes, I knew how bad it sounded.

Eric looked at her and sighed. He pulled her into a hug. "Ya sorry about that. It is not that important. Everything will be fine. There is nothing for you to worry about." He said hugging her. "It is just some family drama. It will blow over soon." He said hoping that was enough to keep her from asking questions. If it wasn't, he would have to come up with something else. He kissed her cheek. He was not sure what to say to her.

(How soon should Lexie tell her?)
