"Hey Rory, you have everything right" Maddie asks

"Yup I have the 7 costumes, Black and Tan Jazz shoes, pointe shoes, body tights, corset, makeup, Bobby pins, hair ties, and a crap ton of hairspray" Rory says with a small chuckle

"Ok good. There's going to be a lot of scouts there, I'm kinda nervous" Maddie says wearily

"Your gonna be great Madds, you're the captain of the team, no one is better then you" Rory reassured her putting a hand on her shoulder

"You right we'll be fine, I'll see you at lunch ok" Maddie says as the bell rings

Rory makes her way to second period and finds that Peter was already sitting at their desk

"Hey babe" Peter says kissing her cheek

"What was that for?" Rory asked a little confused

"Nothing, I just missed you" he says shrugging his shoulder and kissing her again

"We saw each other less than an hour ago Peter, not that I'm complaining" Rory says chuckling

They went about their classes laughing and joking, which helped ease Rory's nerves

The bell for 6th period rang and Rory dreaded what was coming soon

"Hey, your going to be perfectly fine do you hear me" Peter says putting his hand on Rory's waist

"I know, thanks Peter" she tells him hugging his torso

He lifts her chin up and leans down to kiss her

She's taken by surprise but when she realizes what's happening she immediately kissed back

All her worries and thought were forgotten

All she could focus on was this amazing, shy, needy, loving boy in front of her

"I thought that might help you calm down" Peter says caressing Rory's cheek

"You know what, it actually did. Thanks" Rory says blushing a little

"We'll all be here at 7 ok, good lucky babe" he says giving her a hug and a kiss on the head

Rory nods and walks to the studio with Maddie

They put there stuff in the locker and decide to go get food since it's only 2:30 and they had to be at school by 4:30

"Is T'Challa coming tonight" Rory asks Maddie while they wait in the drive thru line

"Yea he is" Maddie said

"Peter told me you went on a date with Steve and Bucky" she says raising her eyebrows suggestively

She blushes but laughs in efforts to cover it up

"Oh my god, did you guys complete the bond with them?" Maddie asks with a huge smile

"Yes, and with Clint too" Rory says smiling to herself thinking back to those big nights

"Who would've thought that you would find all 13 of your soulmates when you moved here?" Maddie asks putting a fry in her mouth

"I know what you mean, it still feels kind of surreal. Like this is some twisted dream and I'll wake up and loose it all" Rory explains sadly

"Well believe it, this ain't no dream girl, this is your life now" the supportive friend says reassuringly

They make their way back to school and in the dance studio

At exactly 4:30 they run the group numbers with the team making last minute critics

After they run group numbers Rory and Maddie put on their pointe shoes and rehearse their ballet duet

"Oh my god girls, that was a beautiful piece. Scouts are definitely going to be wanting their shots at you two" our director says with proud eyes

"Alright girls, start doing hair and makeup and put on your lyrical costumes. Remember smoky eyes and red lips you can see from far away" Maddie says loudly so everyone could hear

Maddie and Rory get situated by sitting with all their hair and makeup products in front of one of the 3 large walls covered in mirrors

After about 2 hours everyone has their hair and makeup done and are in their costumes for the first number

They go to the backstage dressing room areas and put their stuff down so they can do quick changes between numbers

"Ok girls, I just found out some thrilling news. A scout from The Juilliard School and one from the Joffrey Ballet School are here. So everyone in their A game tonight" their director says excitedly

When Rory heard those words she froze, Juilliard is her dream school, but even being accepted into Joffrey would be a huge dream come true

Juilliard only has a 6% acceptance rate which made Rory loose hope

But Joffrey has a better acceptance rate and she would be just as happy to even be able to audition there

At exactly 7:15 their director went on stage and did an introduction speech

We all took our places on the sides of the stages

When she finishes and the audience clapped we gracefully made out way onto the stage and in our positions

Rory discreetly looked around in the audience and saw her soulmates along with T'Challa all sitting together

The music started and they started their routine

After 3 minutes the got off stage gracefully and rushed to get ready for the next number

The order of the dances went, lyrical, Contemporary, Hip Hop, Jazz, the Ballet duet, and the finale another Jazz routine

We continued to do the rest of our number and got to mine and Maddie's duet

We looked at each other from opposite sides of backstage

Holy crap I was nervous

I mean the school is here, along with all of my soulmates

Not to me to mention scouts from my top college and an elite ballet school

No, you got this, I'm a boss ass bitch

We get introduced and me and Maddie make our way onto the stage

We stand on our marks and I take a deep breath

I don't dare look out into the audience, it would just make me even more nervous

The music starts and the two of us start the dance

We go through the choreography and put our all into it

At the end we're breathless from the amount of energy that ballet took, but we finish strong and exit the stage

We change and take our place for the finale which is my favorite dance by far

It's a Jazz routine to Cell Block Tango from Chicago

We walk on stage with our heels clicking and take our positions

I look out in the audience and see my soulmates looking at me with lust shining in their eyes

The costumes where various small, black, and shiny pieces

They were all different but somehow matched, they were sexy

The music started and they started their seductive dance doing kicks and splits

When we're done we all walk of stage

Our director goes on stage and thanks everyone for coming to watch and calls us out to take a bow

"And finally can we give a round of applause to our Captain Maddie and Co- Captain Lorelia" she says motioning us to go to the front of the stage

Me and Maddie walk up and bow with our arms on each there waist

After we bow we stand back up and Maddie pulls me into a hug, which I almost immediately return

I thought moving to New York would be the worst decision of my life, but as time goes by I'm realizing that it isn't

It's actually the best decision I've ever made

I'm surrounded by people who love me and care for me and support me, I couldn't ask for anything better

We get off stage to meet up with our friends and family before going back to get our stuff

When I walk off the stage I'm immediately lifted up and brought into an embrace

"You were magnificent my love" Thor says putting me down but still holding me close

"Yea you were amazing" Wanda says coming over and giving

I look over and see Loki, Tony, Steve, and Bucky with scowls on their faces

"Is something wrong" I ask nervously

Maybe they didn't like it

"They're fine, they're just pouting because they're over bearing men" Natasha says

I'm still confused

"They don't like your outfit" Sam says

"Too many people were looking at what belongs to us" Loki says growling at staring daggers at some students who rush away

"Calm down, everyone here is just a nasty horny teenager, not much to compare with the Avenger's. And plus no one really matters to me besides you guys" I say putting my hand on Loki's cheek to calm him down

I hear someone clear their through behind me and I turn around to see Nick with a bouquet of Red Rosses

"You've gotten better since I last saw you" he says smirking

I instantly go over to him and give him a hug which he returns

"You came" I whisperer

"I wouldn't dare miss it" he says pulling away and giving me the flowers

After talking for a bit I feel a tap on my shoulder

"Hello I'm Graciella Sterling, I work for the Joffrey Ballet" an older woman says holding her hand out

"I'm Lorelia, nice to meet you" I say smiling

"Throughout your performances saw beautiful technique and control. You are very talented and I would like to offer you a scholarship to the Joffrey Ballet School"

I just stand there completely shocked

"Take my card, let me know if you would be interested in accepting" she says handing me a card

"Thank you, she will be sure to call you" Stephen says taking the card since I was still in shock

"No, thank you, we would be blessed to have a dancer like you in our program. Take care" she says walking towards Maddie

"Um Rory, are you ok" Stephen asks concerned

"Oh my gosh! That did not just happen!" I say excitedly jumping into Stephen's arms

"Believe me it just did" He said kissing my cheek

"Excuse me, Lorelia" a Man who I've never seen before asks

"Yes?" I ask calming down my excitement

"I'm Collin Phillips. I saw you preforming and I have to say I am awe struck. You did all different genres and just as I thought you couldn't get any better, you exceeded my expectations. I can tell that you work hard to maintain your body and your lines. I want to offer you a 4 year scholarship to Juilliard." The man with a small pony tail says

This time I don't freeze up

"Oh my gosh, this is a dream come true. This is such a huge honor for me" I say sincerely

"Oh no dear, the honor is all mine. You are a beautiful and pristine dancer, you have exceptional technique. You have a god given talent and I wouldn't be able to find a dancer like you anywhere. When you make a decision you can call my personal number, I hope you chooses to take our offer" he says walking away after giving me the card

Once he's gone gone I start jumping up and down like a kid who's high on pixie sticks

I turn around and see all my mates and Nick laughing at my childish behavior

Stephen comes up to give me a hug and I jump on him wrapping my arms and legs around him

Nick leaves and I'm still wrapped around Stephen

I remember that I'm still in a very skimpy and sexy costume and blush when I see Clint and Bucky starring at me

Everyone goes to the cars while Peter, Pietro, Sam, and Steve come with me to get my bags

All the boys were carrying 3 bags each along with a couple costumes while I just had my backpack

We somehow put everything in the car and make our way to the tower
