Chapter 16

The dance academy was buzzing with activity as Mrs. Dubois prepared the dancers for the showcase with costume fittings. Nova and her team were present to take measurements of all the dancers and watch the dance rehearsals for design inspiration. Everyone in town sought out Nova for a Nova Moon original no matter the occasion. She started her career in fashion design while in high school working for a high end boutique and tailor. People in the northeastern and southern region made special trips to Dawson Falls for a NM signature gown. Nova loved creating costumes for Aubree’s students in the past, so Aubree knew Nova would come through. Mrs. Dubois gave Aubree creative freedom on most of the dance numbers and complete control of the costume designs, so the performance was fresh and unique. Next month, Ivy would come to discuss set designs and staging. Planning for the showcase felt like old times working with her best friends. Their creative skills complimented each other. This was the chance that Aubree had been waiting for since she started working for Mrs. Dubois. After the excitement died down, Mrs. Dubois had all the showcase students remain for an additional rehearsal.

As the rehearsal ended, Aubree waited for Allie to come pick up Chanel for their weekend fun. Grant had given Aubree the weekend off since Chanel would be with Allie and his mother. Aubree had a special request from one of the mothers of her students, and they were meeting this evening at Grant’s house with his permission. Ever since the almost kiss they shared, Grant had put distance between them. He worked later than usual and arrived home when he thought Aubree would be sleep. He kept his word and had Allie call her about the grant funding she was seeking. Her feelings were hurt a little by being iced out, but she knew it was for the best. To get involved with Gant would not benefit either one of them, and Chanel would be hurt if they didn’t work out. Focusing on securing funding or a business loan for her performing arts center was the best thing to do.

Allie pulled up just as Chanel walked out of the studio with the other dancers in her class.

“Hi, Sweet Pea. Hi, Aubree, how was class today?”

“It was good,” Chanel huffed. She did not look as excited as she normally was about going to spend time with Allie.

“What’s wrong? Did something happen in class today?” Allie asked, concern evident on her face.

“It’s just that Daddy and Aubree will be home all by themselves with nothing to do this weekend. We had planned a game night for tonight, and we were going to the park tomorrow. But now I’m leaving. I think I need to stay home so they won’t be lonely.”

Allie chuckled. “I’m sure your Dad and Aubree will be fine. They will find something to do while you are away. I hope they will do it together, so they won’t be lonely.
