One
April
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight." I said dancing for the kids.
They have to get ready for a talent show coming in 2 days and since I was the only choreographer in Virgina, they called me to help them.
Practice was over but I got stopped by Olivia. I wondered what she wanted.
"April, how are you ?"
"Good." I said sitting down.
"Well, how you feel to be moved on up ?"
"What do you mean ?"
"How would you feel if you were a choregrapher for celebrities ?"
"That would be great, why ?"
"Because this celebrity heard of your work and he wants you to help him."
She said 'he' I wondered who it would be.
"Where am I gonna go ?"
"Los Angeles."
I just sat there in shock. California, somewhere where popular people hang out but I don't wanna leave here it's too amazing.
After the talent show, my team won and I'm so proud of all of them. After I broke the news to them, they were all sad but they thought I should focus on making big things.
The day after the talent show, I got ready to leave for California. I packed all my clothes and waited for Olivia since she have to come with me.
10 minutes later, a horn beeped 3 times outside which means it was her. I grabbed my stuff and got ready and we drove to the airport. California, here we come.
James
"James, since your choreographers are busy for 4 months now, we have a new choreographer." my manager Tina said on the phone.
"What is his name ?"
"Actually, it's a she and her name is April."
"You've got to be kidding me."
"I'm not. Actually, she is one of the best choreographers of Virginia."
"Virginia ?" I said as my accent came out.
"Yes." she said trying to hold in her laugh.
"When will she be here ?"
"Tomorrow so be ready."
"Ok."
I hung up the phone and went to sleep. I hope this choreograper is as good as my original ones.
April
"April, wake up. We're here." Olivia said shaking me up.
"Ok I'm up."
I opened up my eyes and had to put my hand over my face because the sun was just too bright. I hope California will stay like this.
"Liv, what time is it ?"
"11:00 but you have to get ready."
"Ok."
I got up and got my suitcases and we walked out to a limo that said... 'April.'
I walked to the man and he took us inside and drove us to this fancy hotel.
It had pools and everything. I guess I might like Cali after all. We got out and reservated and got into a 2-bed hotel.
"Hurry up we gotta go." Olivia said hurrying me up.
"A'ight."
I went into the bathroom and took a shower and did hygiene and got dressed. I put on a white tank top and black sweatpants and put my hair in a ponytail and grabbed my phone and left.
When we got there, it had paparazzi waiting for this person whoever 'he' is. But luckily, I got inside in time before the paparazzi asked who I was.
I sat on the floor and waited until a man approached me.
"May I help you ?" I said politely.
"Are you the new choreographer ?"
"Yes that's me."
"Well come and meet this Mr. Brown."
"Mr. Brown as in James Brown ?"
"Yes."
I got up and walked over to him. He was wearing basketball shorts and a wife beater.
"James, this is April, you're new choreographer."
"Nice to meet you." I said holding out my hand.
But instead he hugged me suffocating me. I struggled to get out his grip but he was too strong.
"Mr. Brown, you're suffocting me." I said trying to breathe.
"Sorry." he said as he let me go. "But you can call me James."
"Ok."
James
I got up and did my morning routine in time for pratice. I got there and of course, paparazzi asking me question. I sat down in the chair in the corner and waited for April.
"James, this is April, you're new choreographer." Pat said.
I looked up from my phone and saw some short girl in baggy sweats and a tank top I guess was April looking at me.
"Nice to meet you." she said holding out her hand.
I couldn't help myself so I hugged her tightly because I wanted to I just don't know why.
"Mr. Brown, you're suffocting me." she said trying to get loose.
"Sorry." I said as I let her go. "But you can call me James."
"Ok."
After dance pratice, I called April to section in the room.
"Yes ?" she said nicely.
"I was just wondering, can you go on a date with me I just wanna help you explore LA a little bit ?"
"Sure but when ?"
"Tomorrow since we get a day off."
"Ok but I should put my number in your phone." she said holding her hand out waitng for the phone.
"Here." I gave her the phone and she gave me hers and swapped numbers.
"Great see you tomorrow, James." she said getting up.
"Bye."
April
I got back exhausted as ever. I hopped in the shower and put on my nightgown and Olivia was watching 'Law & Order : Special Victims Unit.'
"What a day." I said hopping the bed.
"What you mean ?"
"Well the celebrity is James Brown and he asked me out on a date for tomorrow and I got his number."
"What." she said squealing like a little girl.
Yup. I'm kind of excited anyway."
"Yea, but you lucky."
"Liv, one day you will find someone right for you."
"Yea, you right, I should just wait my turn."
"Yup, goodnight." I said as I got comfortable under the covers.
"Night." she turned off the TV and went to sleep also.
I hope this date is gonna go good. I just wanna get played like I always used to. Maybe James can be the one or maybe he can just be playing me right before my eyes. But I just have to find out for myself.
