...like you say, a good deal of your time together was spent working on HER underprepared part, part, then I would absolutely NOT pay her for her personal practice time! Even if you had agreed on an hourly fee, the money should be spent on ensemble rehearsal. Also, I would maintain that even though this was your junior recital, if you had this sort of experience with the person, you would want to seek out someone else for your senior recital. I agree with the above...let your teacher get involved.
