You are Confined Only by the Walls you Build

Kolton,
I stopped for a moment as I looked over at her. "I just can't,"I said huffing slightly. I touched her arm gently,"Please just trust me. I'll be back for the next practice. I promise,"I said pleading her with my eyes.

Alaska,
I looked at him, seeing the panic in his eyes. "Okay," I said quietly. I was going to find out sooner or later what was going on. I turned away from him and turned the music back on. I was going to give him the silent treatment; he deserved it.

[lauren.]

Kolton ,
I frowned as I knew what she was doing. "Alaska please, don't ignore me,"I said rubbing the back of my neck. She's done this once before but right now it wasn't funny. She was acting like a spoiled little child.

[haileyjordan]

Alaska,
I didn't turn back to look at him for a moment before I turned around. "Then why won't you tell me? What do you think I'm going to do?" I asked. "I'm just upset Kolton," I said, crossing my arms.

[lauren.]

Kolton,
I let out a frustrated sigh. I needed to go. Apparently Tessa is throwing up and is crying. "Damn it, Alaska. Why can't you just trust me? I haven't missed a single rehearsal,"I said gripping at the bag on my shoulder.

[haileyjordan]

Alaska,
"Then just go," I said bitterly. "It just gets really irritating when you leave short notice like this. It's obvious this doesn't matter to you like it matters to me," I told him, the anger in my voice.

[lauren.]

Kolton,
My anger flared as she said this. Of course I cared deeply about dancing. "Damn it, my daughter is sick and she needs me,"I blurted out out of anger. "There are some things that need to be tended to besides dancing all the time. I care about this so much but my baby girl is sick and I need to be with her right now,"I said glaring at her before I quickly left the studio, my hands shaking slightly.

Alaska,
I stared at him as he stormed out. A daughter? I didn't even know how to react. How could that even happen? Why didn't he tell me before? I felt like a complete bitch. I swallowed and slid my sweats on over my shorts. I needed to go home. I couldn't even fathom what was even going on.

[lauren.]

Kolton,
I called Carrie to tell her I was leaving now. I made my way out to the front, opening the trunk of my car throwing my bag inside. I slammed it shut, leaning against it for a moment. I shouldn't have gotten mad at Alaska. It wasn't her fault, it was mine for not telling her in the first place.

[haileyjordan]

Alaska,
I turned off the music, shoving my iPod into my pocket before I took my bag and swung it onto my shoulder. I locked the studio up and headed down the street, still in complete shock. I wasn't sure whether I was angry or just surprised. My head was flooded with emotions.

[lauren.]

Kolton,
I got into my car and headed down the street. As I drive I saw Alaska walking down the sidewalk. I slowed down and rolled my window down,"Alaska let me take you home. I don't want you walking at this time of night by yourself,"I said staring at the road then back at her.

[haileyjordan]

Alaska,
I didn't even look at him as I continued walking. "I'm fine. You have more important things to take care of than me," I told him. I honestly didn't want to talk to him right now. I just couldn't wrap my head around the whole situation.

[lauren.]

Kolton,
I frowned,"You're just as equally important. Please get in,"I said somewhat angry.

[haileyjordan]

Alaska,
I swallowed to hold back the tears. I remained quiet as I walked over to the passengers side, getting in. I didn't say a word as he drove, I just wanted to cry.

[lauren.]

Kolton,
As I drove to her house, the silence was killing me. I want to know what she's thinking, what she's feeling. Finally I cracked,"Please say something,"I said as we came close to her place.
