A/N I'm sorry for the long wait and the short chapter. School just started and I'm not as into the story as I was before...
"Would you like to come play a game with us?" She asked. I nodded and followed. And so we spent the rest of the day playing games together. We continued to get to know each other. By the end of the evening we were on first name basis. When I went to bed I was happy, and my last thought before I fell asleep was So this is what it feels like to have friends.

Olivia had explained to us that the Dance teachers were cousins who looked a lot alike.
I quickly went to my room, changed into my sport uniform and placed my dance shoes in my bag. I started walking towards the door, only to turn around and quickly grab my uniform cloak.
Professor Fawley had black hair and light blue eyes, and professor Bazley had very dark brown hair and dark blue eyes, but for the rest they looked very alike, one could mistake them for twins.
We were a group of 8 girls. None of the boys had chosen this class. I recognised Olivia, but I was unfamiliar with the rest.
"Everyone, gather around. Then we can start." Professor Fawley said. She sat down, and motioned for us to sit around in a circle.
"Hello everyone. I'm professor Bazley. This is professor Fawley" She motioned towards her "and together we are going to teach you Ballet and Contemporary and Lyrical dance. We will start by introducing ourselves. Professor Fawley will start." Professor Bazley explained.
"I'm Julia Fawley. I also teach Magical Creatures. I'm 23 years old and my favorite book is Fantastic Beast And Where To Find Them." Professor Fawley said. We continued like this around the circle. I was the youngest of the group.
Some girls had put on the half sole shoes, but professor Fawley said we would start bare-foot.
The first term would be used for ballet, so we all stood next to the barre. The professors had given us an exercise. We had to hold the barre with both hands and try to bring our left leg up as high as possible while keeping it straight. Professor Bazley said that if possible, you could grab your leg with a straight arm. My leg came up pretty high, my foot about shoulder height. We then changed legs.
"For dancing, you have to be flexible. The dances we teach you involve a lot of leg-lifts. We will train the leg-lifts and other stretching ways a lot in the first few lessons. It will also help to practice in your room. We will start using pointe shoes after everyone is on the same level and can do basic ballet." Professor Bazley said.
"You will also get a mark for Dance at the end of term. For this term, ballet, you will have to be able to do the choreography we give you. We will practise it in the lessons. It will involve all the things you'll learn this term."
