Elle

"Elle, you're first!" Abby called. I walked into studio B and rehearsed my solo in front of Abby. "Well...we can improve for the most part." I frowned and nodded. "I'm sorry..." "It's ok sweetie, I can see that jazz isn't your best style. But let this be your reminder: You are not here because you are great at every style like the other girls, but because I see potential in you. I know that with a few adjustments here and there, I can make you into these girls," Abby said and I nodded. So I'm not as good as them? I thought. Well that's obvious Elle! You suck compared to them! Ugh, stop putting yourself down! Stop! I actually hit myself in the head lightly, earning a strange stare from Abby. I blushed nervously in return, then rehearsed my solo a few more times before Abby sent me to get Kalani.

She was in the dancer's den. I walked in. "Kalani," I said. She stood up and walked out. The only available spot was her old spot, which was...next to Kendall. I sat down. Kendall stood up. "Scoot," she said to Jojo, who was sitting on her other side. "No!" Jojo said sassily. Kendall crossed her arms. Jojo did the same. "Scoot over!" Kendall said again through gritted teeth. "Make me!" Jojo replied angrily. Kendall pushed Jojo over. She fell out of the seat. "Hey!" She said. "You wouldn't move," said Kendall. "But why did you push me?!" Jojo asked. Kendall shrugged. "Well you said 'make me!'" Jojo rolled her eyes and sat next to me. "Whatever. I'd rather sit by Elle anyway," she said. "I don't care." Kendall said flatly. Brynn raised an eyebrow. "Geez Kendall, what has gotten into you?!" She asked. "Shut up!" Kendall snapped. "That's it!" Jojo yelled. She walked out and made sure to push Kendall on her way out.

         The room remained in silence for a few minutes. Then Nia spoke. "So..." Her so... Never got a reply, so it just sorta...hung there. Still, no one spoke. No one moved. No one coughed, no one sneezed, no one breathed noisily. Of course they breathed, just, you couldn't hear it. It was so quiet, in fact, that you would think you would hear the heartbeats of 7 young female dancers. But no. Nothing. No noise. Just awkwardness.

          Just then Jojo came back in. Her face was red, and everyone in the room could tell that she was boiling angry! Her mom followed her. So did Abby. And Kalani too. Uh oh, I thought. This can't be good. If Jessalyn AND Abby had to be brought into it, there was definitely something to worry about. We all looked at Kendall, and she obviously seemed embarrassed. "Guys!" Jojo said. We turned in her direction. "I-I can't deal with this anymore." We were all silent and tense, looking at each other nervously. "Ever since I came here, I've been bullied by you all, by your mothers, and by Abby." Jojo said. We looked at Abby. She was also embarrassed. There was silence. We looked at Jojo expectantly, but she said nothing yet. It was as if she was...making us think about this. You know, like, letting her speech sink into our souls. At last, she spoke again. "I can't take it any longer. I-I-I'm...I'm quitting the team." She finished. We looked at each other sadly. I saw a tear slide softly down Brynn's beautiful face. Maddie and Kenzie let them fall from their eyes too. Nia hugged Jojo. So did Kalani. I sat there. "I-I'm sorry," Kendall said quietly. Jojo shook her head.  "Whatever." And then she left. She just...left. Pulled away from all the hugs and "goodbyes" and everything else and just left. Just like that. And I was being an idiot, just freaking sitting there well my friend was leaving. I wasn't being very kind to Jojo.

          After she left, everyone was just saying that she'd be back and stuff. But I knew she wouldn't. I had watched the show, and it was true: they were mean to Jojo. And sure, it looked like she was mean too. But she wasn't. She was just really sassy. And sometimes that sass was mistaken for rudeness. I knew that that was it. That was the end of Jojo Siwa on Dance Moms.

A/N: Hey guys! So I know that was an interesting chapter and some of you might be mad that I made Jojo leave, but it's for the better! It'll be easier because Elle can do Jojo's solos, duets, trips, and take her spot in the groups. Do you understand my logic? I hope ya do. Anywhoo, I hope y'all are loving the story so far, so plz don't forget to vote, comment, and follow me! And please with the last part! I'm almost(ish) to 200 followers, so chu guys should help me get there faster. It would really mean a lot to me! Anyways, I gotta get going, so bye!
