DanceA Chapter by MookieHarrThe beginning where Delilah goes to her boarding school - where they dance of course.I sighed and brought my things to my black mercedes. I was heading to New York, I currently live in California but my parents decided that New York was better than the dance schools here. It was more... challenging. What I like. My friend - Brianna - was the best out of all my friends. She promised to come to the school with me - and she is - but not right now. She comes in a few days later, but let's not talk about that right now. Let me introduce myself. I'm Delilah Reed. Dance and music is my life. When I was little, I learned how to do ballet. But when I got older and older, I got more into different kinds of dances. The person that inspired me in dancing is my dad. Danny. He was young, only about 29 years old. Today was his birthday, the first day I was heading to New York. If you think it's weird not staying home and celebrating my father's birthday with my family... well, you have no idea what i've been through. My father died 4 months ago, it hurt me to say 3 words - I don't mean 'I love you' Even though I love him. I love him more than you know -, Rest in Piece. I wanted him to rest in piece, but I didn't want him to die. I wanted my father to be there when I get married, walk me down the aisle (sp?) and tell me every things going to be fine. I wanted my dad to be there for me through the hard times. But all because of cancer, none of those things can ever happen. I put my suitcases in the back trunk and put my backpack on the passenger seat. I went to the driver's seat and started the car. I'm finally leaving home, away from my lonely mom and away from my sleeping dad. I backed away from the plain gray driveway and drove to New York. -(New York. Trillion Boarding School)- I walked in the school and noticed, this is only a dance school, but it had a WHOLE bunch of other subjects too. "This sucks." I muttered to myself as I looked at my schedule. (I received it a few minutes ago. Let's just pass that part.) Mrs. Roberts (the lady that works in the office) also gave me my keys to my room and my room number. AND I had to go back downstairs to the theater room for an assembly. Oh, I will so fall asleep in there. I went to dorm building 2 and went to room 4. Unfortunately, I had a loud neighbor next door that would shout random things. Oh, I am just the luckiest girl alive aren't I? Hear the sarcasm? I opened my dorm door - which was room 564 - and looked around. 2 girls was sitting on their beds either reading a book or painting their nails. I put my things beside the extra bed and smiled at the 2 girls as they looked at me. "Hi, I'm Delilah. I just came from California." I greeted with a small smile. "I'm Lily. Nice to meet you. Are you new?" The girl that was reading asked. I nodded. "Cool. This is Tanya. She's been here longer than me." Lily chuckled. Tanya rolled her eyes as Lily patted her back. "I can talk you know." Tanya glared. "I know." Lily sighed and went back to reading her book. "Uhm... where's the bathroom?" I asked. "Right over there." Lily said, pointing to a infront of her without looking away from her book. "Thanks." I muttered and brought out a towel and some shampoo, along with a pair of black shorts and a white tank top.
