Now on the Varsity dance team and having began their routine it was time for costumes. Jocelyn sat in the locker room with the brown box of costumes in hand. She hadn't opened it yet, but instead walked around with the box for a while, but she was dying to see it.
Looking around the locker room to make sure no one was around It was about 45 minuets after school and everyone had already gone home. Jocelyn turned back to the box with anxious eyes. Pulling out her keys she slid them across the tape and it smoothly cut it. Slightly closing her eyes she lifted up the four flaps, pulled out the tissue paper, and opened her eyes. Grabbing the shoulders she pulled the dress up and marveled at it.
It appeared the theme was some sort of butterfly thing. The shoulders puffed out slightly with the orange color of a monarch butterfly. Around the edges of the sleeves it was spotted like the end of a monarch wings. The corseted center was stripped with the pattern of a wing that flared out into orange tulle. Instead of regular nude dance tights her dress was complete with horizontally stripped black and white tights and black Pointe shoes. Despite the stand out "look-at-me" colors, Jocelyn loved it.
Tying up her hair she left her things in her locker and walked through the door to the dance room. No one was around and it was empty, except for a opened costume box. Stepping in with her Pointe shoes she readied herself along the wall with her hand gently placed on the iron bar that stretched across the wall. She began warming up with the basic dance positions and music began to play in her mind.
As she continued to warm up the music intensified and she let go of the bar. The music began to take hold of her. She danced freely around the room with the grace of well...a ballerina. Her arms and legs strongly moved with extreme care. Her eyes closed as she spun around the room. She could let herself go with no one watching.

If there was ever a time that Casey loved the most, it was after school. Almost everyone left immediately, giving Casey a chance to take time and examine all around her. Today she was in the physical education facility. Nothing too special here. The walls were a dull white shade and the floors either worn out wood, or gray tile. Casey popped her head out into the girls’ locker room and wandered down the aisle. She took some shots of the locks on the locker and a row of lockers here and there. Boring. Casey was about to leave, a little disappointed, when she head footsteps over across in the dance room. Without hesitation Casey walked towards the room. Approaching closer and closer though, Casey realized that maybe randomly walking into a room wasn’t the best solution. It worked out just sooo well in the library. About a foot away from the door, Casey looked through the crack and saw her… A girl about the age of Casey was dancing freely with music in the background. Her eyes were closed and Casey was impressed by her dancing. She slowly walked into the room, making sure she wasn’t heard. She raised her camera and followed the girl with her lens. *Snap*

OoC: Looks like you're a mind reader!
The music in her headThe music playing in the background continued to play though the many movements of Beethoven’s 5th symphony, a mixture of hip hop, and modernized classical music. Jocelyn moved freely with the music and danced in her new Pointe shoes without care. Her legs powered through every turn and jump and she...
Snap. Click.
Extremely started by the sound of the shutter click together in the speed of light Jocelyn opened her eyes and turned around to find a thin burnet holding a camera pointed at her. Quickly flattened to stand on her heels and looked at the girl with a surprised and embarrassed look. Jocelyn figured it was too late in the day for anyone to be there, and yet, here she stood. "Oh..Uhm...Hi? What are you doing here?...I...I mean...here in the dance room...after school....now..." Jocelyn could feel her face flush as she remembered she was in a poofy monarch butterfly dress. To make it worse...it was documented.

OOc: Yep I am!
Right after Casey took the picture... she noticed. The girl immediately stopped dancing and stood still, a little shocked and embarrassed.
"Oh..Uhm...Hi?What are you doing here?...I...I mean...here in the dance room...after school....now..."
Casey tilted her head a little as she saw the new aura come to mind. A sophisticated orange with a hint of gold swirled around her eyes. It really was a pretty sight. Casey look though the orange and saw the girl. She was pretty, and by the way she stood uncomfortable she knew it and didn't treasure or even like it. Casey felt awkward silence coming on, when her finger slipped and *snap* She got a lovely shot of her feet... -_- Casey outreached her hand,
"Hi my name is Casey. I saw you dancing and since I'm a photographer I wanted to take a picture of you dancing. How long have you been dancing?Do you like dancing? I tried it once, wasn't that good at it though. But I love to watch people dancing."
Wow, how many times can you say dance in a conversion? Casey thought, I wouldn't be surprised if she screamed and ran away right now...

Standing awkwardly in front of the girl with the camera Jocelyn grabbed her straightened elbow with her other arm as the girl introduced herself. Apparently she was just as nervous as Jocelyn because she continually repeated the phrase 'dancing'. Or maybe she was just really really curious and had a running mouth.
Click
Either way, it didn't make the situation much better.
"...lalala...lala...la...But I love to watch people dancing."Obviously She apparently finished and silence filled the room once again. Jocelyn figured this was her time to introduce herself. Looking down at her shoes she began, "Uhm...I'm Jocelyn. I'm on the Varsity dance team...and...we just got our costumes today...so I went in the locker room to try it on. Thaaats why I look kinda ridiculous." She gave Casey a little smile as she looked back up at her.
"I've been dancing for..." She stuck out her tongue and looked up as she began to count her fingers,"...Forever pretty much. ...I'm guessing you like photography ...a LOT" Jocelyn looked down at the extremely expensive camera. No one she knew liked photography enough to by one of those, besides the people her parents hired for parties and whatnot.
Looking back up at Casey her feet began to get restless. Shifting between flat and points Jocelyn began bobbing up and down, still smiling at the girl.

Did this girl not like her already! What! That didn’t seem fair, I mean all Casey was doing was talking… and randomly taking pictures of her. Well one to be in fact so yeah… As Casey finished her embarrassing comment, the girl looked down at her feet.
"Uhm...I'm Jocelyn. I'm on the Varsity dance team...and...we just got our costumes today...so I went in the locker room to try it on. Thaaats why I look kinda ridiculous."
So she was a shy type of girl. Hmm.. guess that made sense. But why? This girl, Jocelyn, was in fact a pretty girl, but the tone in her voice made her seem to look down upon it. But the smile she gave Casey, made Casey feel happy. She didn’t feel too shy with her, which was good.
“I'm guessing you like photography ...a LOT"
Now she was looking at Casey’s camera. She seemed to like it because she stared at it for a moment. Casey felt a bit of joy in the moment and presented it a little in her hands. Jocelyn looked back at Casey and for some reason began to bob up and down. Someone can’t hold their feet still for a little while huh? Wow she really is a dancer.
“I really like the way you dance. Would you like to maybe, I don’t know, model for me one day. I could use the practice and get you some pretty neat shots. What do you say?”
Casey was getting a little over excited again. Please don’t scare the girl away…

Still flustered with embarressment across her face Jocelyn didn't feel the awkwardness go away. “I really like the way you dance. Would you like to maybe, I don’t know, model for me one day. I could use the practice and get you some pretty neat shots. What do you say?”And that didn't make it any better. Jocelyn thought it would be somewhat interesting to have someone do a personal photo shoot of her. But at the same time she didn't really want to see the pictures of herself. But it doesn't hurt to try...right?[/i]
"Well....I gueeess that would be...ok...I mean...Uhm...I have a really big house. Maybe you could do it there. You might like to explore it anyways...I have like...a lot of antique whatnots...and a big yardish place surrounding my house...I mean...If you didn't feel uncomfortable with it"
Jocelyn was really the one feeling a bit uncomfortable. She looked up at Cassie. Her face looked warm and inviting.She seems...innocently trustworthy. I'm sure she's ok
