Nate was about to say something more but he decided to stop when he heard Randall calling them. "Here are the drinks, guys! Come and get it!" Randall announces, while holding two grocery bags full of drinks. "Wow, that was fast! Thanks, man." Nate smiles at him. The other boys started getting their own drinks. Meanwhile, Kyle started giving Grant and Edward a mentholated body plasters, to help them with their muscle pains... And while the others are busy doing their own thing, Nate suddenly held Callie's hand. "I'll talk to you again later, okay?" he whispered at her again, then afterwards, he joins with the other boys. Callie stared at her hand that has been touched by Nate's warm hand. "Is there something I should look forward yo later?" Callie smilingly wonders to herself... =============================== Few hours later. It was already 9 'o clock in the evening. Their rehearsals for the day is finally over. "As always, good work, everyone." Director Oliver commended
“And how can you calmly stand there, Chase?” Kent demanded, while giving Chase a challenging stare. "Just relax, guys. She's not that weak. I'm sure that she's alright." Chase suddenly enunciated. "Wait, what are you saying?" Grant asked, while looking confused. "The point is, let's just trust her, okay?" Chase mysteriously said, then afterwards, he didn't say anything else. All of the boys looked at each other. Then afterwards, the focused their attention towards the security guard. "Please, give us more time, Sir!" Edward requested, in a polite tone. “We want to wait for our friend!” Grant pleaded as well. The guard cleared his throat, and he nodded as an answer. "Alright, boys... Ten more minutes!" the guard finally gave in. ============================= Back inside the Apollo Theater. Callie tightly closes her eyes, as she is waiting for any sharp object to stab her. She is fearing for her life, but she can't do anything because her whole body feels powerless, as if th
Apollo Theater. 6:45 in the morning. Callie felt a hand gently shaking her shoulder. It was to tenter and she felt like she was being touched by an angel. "Callie..." I heard that familiar voice calling my name, with a sense of urgency. She slowly opened her eyes and she saw Nate looking at me with a worried look on his face. "Oh, it's you, Nate." I said still half-asleep. "Yes. Good morning, Callie." he greeted her. "Good morning to you, too." she greeted him back, as she is now fully awake. "I'm so sorry for waking you up, but we need to get out of here as soon as possible." Nate told her, while looking apologetic. And with that, Callie remembered everything that happened last night... She voluntarily locked herself inside the Apollo Theater with Nate last night, and they had their very own "private rehearsals" until the late hours of the evening. "Oh, right! Thanks for waking me up, Nate." Callie thanked him in return, while trying to stand up. "No problem... By the way,
The first half of the meeting is finally over. Director Oliver stood up and looked at everyone. "That will be all for the time being, everyone." the old man announces, while closing his own script booklet. All of the cast members let out a sigh of satisfaction because they were able to have a productive today. Director glances at his wristwatch, and then he decided to speak again. "It's almost lunchtime. Any suggestions for lunch?" he asked. "Well, burger and fries combo would be great!" Kyle suddenly suggested. "Oh, how about a New York style pizza?" Edward made a suggestion as well. "A Chinese take-out sounds nice." Grant joins in as well. All of them did a mock vote for our lunch for today, and in the end, the majority of the cast voted for an extra large New York pizza. "Callie, it's your turn to run errands for us. Please buy the pizza for us, and this is your punishment for being late today." the old director suddenly informs Callie. "Yes, sir." she agreed ri
While Callie and Chase are walking towards the pizza restaurant, he was the first one to break the silence. "You must me wondering why I have that photo on my phone." he started talking. "Yeah." Callie said, as she want to know his story. "Well, I was dead worried about you and Nate last night. I was worried that the two of you might get locked up inside the Apollo Theater." Chase started. "How did you know we're inside?" she curiously asked him. "I really don't know how to explain it, but I had this inkling feeling that you and Nate are inside." answered Chase, while shrugging his shoulders. Callie explained that it was our mutual decision to stay inside the Apollo Theater to have private rehearsals, as she and Nate are feeling more pressured to perform well for the upcoming stage play... "So that's the reason why." Chase spoke again, as he understands everything now. "And I'm really sorry for making you and the rest of the boys worry too much." she sincerely apologized to hi
After a few moments. Callie didn't realize she fell asleep while the training is moving. She opened her eyes slowly, and afterwards, she glanced at her watch. She realized that I was asleep for an hour. "That was a good sleep." she said to myself, while stretching her arms. Callie decided to stand up and go to the comfort room to splash some water on her face, to wake herself up. As she was making her way towards the comfort room, two kids started running on the train aisle, and they suddenly bumped into her. And just like a domino effect, they all fell unto the ground... She wasn't hurt or anything, and she is more worried about the two kids. "Are you guys okay?" one familiar voice suddenly made her look up. Callie's eyes widened in shock when she saw who was standing in front of her. "E-Edward?!" "Come, let me help you and the kids." Edward offered his help. "Thanks." she said to him. Once Edward helped all of us stand up, he started talking to the kids. "Are you both
"Edward? What are you doing here?" she asked in disbelief. "I'm so sorry for intruding your house, Callie... But I've got no place to go." Edward apologized, while shivering because of the cold. "Callie, who's at the door---- oh, it's you! If I remember it right, you're name's Edward, right?' her cousin Jessica suddenly appeared. "Hello again, Jessica!" Edward greeted her in return. "Oh, my... Look at you! You're freezing because of the cold. Please come in first and drink something hot to warm yourself!" Jessica invited him in. "Jessica's right. You should warm yourself up before you get sick." Callie agreed as well. "Thank you very much for your hospitality, guys." Edward tries to smile at them, eventhough his whole face is white as a sheet... ================================= After half an hour. Edward is looking and feeling a lot better now, after drinking a warm tea, having a warm dinner and changing into much warmer clothes. "Thank you very much for welcoming me into
Months quickly passes by. "This is your last day for this semester, everyone. Enjoy your semestral break to the fullest, and make many wonderful memories! I know you're all getting impatient, so I'm going to formally end the last class for this semester. See you all again for the next semester!" their last teacher for the day, Miss Richards, finally bid everyone goodbye.As as soon as their last teacher finally walks out the door, each of the students went to their own group of friends, and they started making plans on where to go and what to do during their semestral vacation.Callie started having a chat with Rachel and Bianca when she suddenly saw Ethan walking towards our direction."Hello, girls." Ethan greeted them."Oh, hello there, Ethan." Bianca and Callie smilingly greeted him back."Are you about to go home, Rachel?" Ethan suddenly asks Rachel"Not yet. I'm going to stay here with the girls for a while to hangout and chat longer." Rachel answered Ethan's question. "That's
