[American Entertainment] Dance out of my youth

He can't help but compare Grace to Saoirse. Grace is prettier, taller and naive than Saoirse.Saoirse started to be a child actor very early, and her experience is actually more than the two of them combined.Although Grace is smart, she is not as good as Saoirse in this respect.

Grace once had the opportunity to be an actress.When she was still learning ballet, she was spotted by a child star agent in the dance classroom and wanted to invite her to audition, but Juliet and David directly refused.Grace said that they went to Pinewood Studios to watch the filming, and the family of three agreed that the profession of acting was not suitable for her.She is willing to practice gymnastics and trampoline because these two skills are "controllable". As long as you learn and learn the movements well, getting a high score is not a problem, but "acting" is not. Performance is too difficult to measure, and "acting" cannot be quantified , this is a bit too embarrassing for her.

Nikki and Dominique both talked to him when they got home from spring break.Nicky expressed very euphemistically that she was not satisfied with his "selective notification". Fortunately, nothing happened, but she did not want to have a next time.Tom immediately admitted his mistake nicely and swore it would never happen again.Dominique thinks he is a little too bold, and he still has to pay attention to safety. Los Angeles is not like London, what a mess!

"Grace goes to school in Los Angeles alone." He expressed dissatisfaction, and Los Angeles is not in a mess.

"That's because she was very sensible since she was a child." Dominique pondered whether the education methods of the Elliott family were different. Juliet, like Nikki, loves children very much, but Juliet can rest assured that Grace is alone in a foreign country. Ji was afraid she couldn't do it.

Regarding the relationship between the eldest son, the Hollands did not say much.The advantage of childhood sweethearts is that they have known Grace for a long time, and they have already known her character.

The Elliotts didn't say anything to Tom Holland either.David used to joke that if Grace was in a relationship, he'd have to "have a good talk" with that brat, but it didn't seem like he'd be too nervous if it was a cute boy he'd known since he was a kid.

It's normal for teenagers to want to fall in love when they reach their age.

Two weeks passed quickly, and on the third Friday in June, Grace Elliott was back in London.

She has not been back to London for two years during the summer vacation, and the Christmas vacation is only half a month. It can be said that she is not in England for most of the year. If the Elliotts want to see her, they have to go to the United States.

The plane arrived at Heathrow Airport at 12 noon, and Juliet drove to the airport to pick her up.

"Tom asked if I could pick you up together, but I didn't agree." When it was just the mother and daughter, they always only spoke Chinese.

"Well, he doesn't need to come."

"But if he wants to pick you up next year, I won't come to pick you up."

"Isn't that a 'we'll talk' thing?"

"He's too young." Juliet frowned in disgust. "I'd rather have someone take care of you. Can Tom take care of himself?"

"Mom, I can take care of myself."

"Eat takeaway and vegetable and fruit salad every day?"

"It's easy, I don't like cooking. Besides, you can hire someone to do the housework. Tom is sensitive, mother, and doesn't like being told he's a child."

"But he's just a kid, he's not yet an adult, he just got his driver's license."

"Age doesn't really matter."

"do you like him?"

"Like it, after all he is cute. Mom, don't you like him too?"

Juliet snorted, "I like him, that's the 'like' of seeing a well-behaved and cute child, but if he is your boyfriend, I will be very strict with him, so strict that he will cry."

"I'll tell him," Grace said seriously.

Before arriving home, Tom called and asked her if she was tired. After all, the flight time was 12 hours, and he thoughtfully asked her to sleep well at home, and he would see her again tomorrow.

Grace was indeed very tired, she fell asleep on the bed after going home to wash up, and slept until after 9 o'clock in the evening.

I got up and had dinner, called Tom, talked for two hours, and hung up around midnight.

At around 9 o'clock the next morning, Tom came to Elliot's house and rang the doorbell.

Grace quickly came down to open the door, "You came a little early. Huh? Have you grown taller?"

In April, he was half a head shorter than her, and his height was only 4cm. After 165 months, he seemed to have grown a little taller.

He was proud, "I have grown 2cm taller!"

She pursed her lips and smiled: He seems to care about height.Just don't tell him he's unlikely to grow very tall.

"Wait for me, I'll change my clothes."

She asked him to sit in the living room, poured him a glass of orange juice, "wait for me a while." She stretched out her right hand with a smile, and lightly tapped the tip of his nose with the tip of her index finger.

He blushed again: Does she still treat me like a child?

But...it doesn't seem to care that much?

After more than half an hour, Grace went downstairs.

The summer in London is not hot, so you can wear a thin coat. She wore a short denim skirt, a white silk shirt with a collar and a light blue denim jacket. Several thin beaded necklaces.

The beaded necklace Tom bought her in a little shop in San Francisco, pastel millet beads with tiny tassels, shiny faceted crystal beads, cheap, a bunch of them for less than fifty dollars, but very nice.

It looks especially good on her.

He has a sweet heart.

"Did you get your driver's license?"

"After passing the test, just wait for the driver's license to be sent home."

"Will Nikki buy you a car?"

He sighed, "They didn't say that."

"I don't have my own car in London either. Juliet said that two cars at home are enough." They took the subway to the city, and there were many people in the subway.

"Where do you want to go?"

"Walk around, go shopping, eat and drink, eat at noon-what do you want to eat? French food? Let's go eat French food and go to the movies in the afternoon." She thought about the activities of ordinary couples dating.

"Okay." Tom felt that he could do whatever he wanted, and the point was not "what to do", but "with whom".Nikki gave him a "date fund", £100, which he thought was a lot of money!

There are two full months of summer vacation, they go out 2 or 3 times a week, sometimes with the twins, Tom occasionally brings BRIT's good friend Harrison, Grace sometimes asks high school classmate Emma Ferguson and her boyfriend friend.Emma is 2 years older than Grace, and she is also a junior promoted to a senior. Speaking of the next semester, she will be busy with internships and job hunting. Emma's major is average, so it is not easy to find a job.

When the two of them talked about major choices and employment prospects, Tom didn't quite understand them. He only heard Grace say that she was preparing materials to apply to schools, and she might choose to study Caltech or MIT for combined master's and doctoral studies.He smiled at Emma and said that Caltech and MIT are deadly rivals. It is unlikely that she will go to MIT. Harvard, Yale and Stanford are bad streets, so Caltech is better. In the future, the choice of employment will be NASA. , or big companies like Google, Facebook, Apple.

Emma sighed, "Your major is great, but it's a pity that my math is really bad. Now it seems that the employment prospects of science and engineering are better."

"Employment prospects for science and engineering will be good at any time. The only difference is that computers may be more popular in the past few years, and biotechnology will be more popular in the next few years." Grace said objectively.

"Then you won't go back to England in the future?"

"I haven't decided yet. If I start my own business, I may be in the United States, or I may come back. If I work for someone else, there are more opportunities in Silicon Valley."

Tom, who had been listening in silently, looked at her in surprise: She never said this!She is likely to immigrate to the United States in the future? !

He also thought that she would stay in Los Angeles for several years, which meant that they might not see each other several times a year.well!His agent mentioned to him that if he wants to make a career as an actor, he must go to Hollywood, and suggested that he go to Hollywood to seek more acting opportunities after graduation next year.

After Emma broke up with her boyfriend with them, he mentioned it to Grace.

"I might go to Los Angeles for a few years after I graduate next year."

"look for a job?"

Uh, that's right.He nodded, a little troubled, "The agent said that I have some popularity now, but it's not enough. I have to keep working. It might be better to live in Los Angeles."

"Doesn't McGregor live in Hollywood too?"

He laughed, "I can't compare with Ivan."

"Be famous as early as possible. You should have received a few good scripts when you were young. But filming is really boring, just reshooting over and over again. Do you like acting?"

"It's okay, I like it very much."

"If you go to Los Angeles, you can live in an area closer to Hollywood, and then we will find an apartment together."

This is a good proposal, and he suddenly became elated, "Then let's talk about it."

It wasn't until the summer vacation was almost over and Grace was about to return to Los Angeles that Tom realized that they hadn't had a few solo dates or kissed a few times during the summer vacation.

Kissing is such a thing that once you experience it, you will want it countless times, and you will never get tired of it.

Mostly it was Grace who drove him home, and they had a few words on the porch, and she kissed him on the cheek and said "goodnight."He would usually watch her get into the car, drive away, and then turn around and enter the house with a little melancholy.

I figured she should be home, so I called her and told her what happened after he got home, and what funny things happened to my brothers today, even though they stayed together for a long time during the day and said hundreds of words, still I feel unfinished.He wanted to share everything in his life with her and thought she should share it with him too.

Grace was quick to criticize this.

"Does he take himself too seriously? My life doesn't revolve around him. He always wants me to tell him everything, but most of my things can't be told to him." She complained to Juliet .

"What did he say?"

"Talk—he'll say everything! He's such a child."

"That can't be helped, he is indeed younger."

"He doesn't even ask me if I really want to know how ugly Paddy looks when he's crying - he's not my brother! I don't like it when he always talks about himself, he rarely asks me The thing, at most, is to ask, do you like to eat this? That's it."

"Oh! Did you discuss this with him? Also, what do you think he asked you? Study? He couldn't understand. Your father said his major, but I couldn't understand it, so I didn't ask, Lest I look stupid."

"Mother--"

"You said that he doesn't ask about you, and that he wants you to talk more about yourself. I don't understand. Does he want to know about you?"

"Did I not express clearly?" Grace was a little annoyed, "He may not know how to ask, so he wants me to tell him what happened every day like him. I'm impatient, but I can chat for at least an hour every night."

She was puzzled, "Mom, tell me, why do we talk so much nonsense? It's not scientific!"

Juliet couldn't help laughing, "Little idiot! You know you're talking nonsense, but you can't help but keep talking until you're too sleepy, right?"
