Chapter One: Dance Lessons
When Chad Danforth agreed to dance, he didn't mean the Jive, the Quickstep, or the Foxtrot.
"Taylor, what is this?" he hissed in Taylor McKessie's ear.
"Dancing." she whispered back, as she fixed her gaze back on Haylie Anderson and Ryan Evans, who were dancing up a storm to You Got It.
Chad followed Taylor's gaze with disgust written on his features.
Even if he was dancing with Taylor, no way was he dancing to this!
After the music had ended, Taylor clapped, and Chad forced himself to place on a smile, while Haylie smiled in their direction, fanning herself with her hand.
"That was very good!" Taylor commented, while Chad crossed his arms.
"Yeah, so...do you guys want to try it?" Haylie asked.
Chad was going to protest, but Taylor smiled.
"We love to, right, Chad?" Taylor asked.
"Yeah, sure!" Chad said, looking at her.
Today was a Thursday, and on Thursdays were basketball practices with the guys, but since Taylor entered him and her in a dance competion, along with Haylie and Ryan, Chad had to skip it.
Taylor led him towards the center of the stage, while Haylie and Ryan stood in the back.
"Ready?" Haylie asked.
"Ready!" Chad and Taylor both said, and Haylie started the music.
Chad made sure he knew what he was doing, since he spaced out during the presenation, but Taylor didn't seem to notice.
After awhile, things were going great, until--
"Chad!"
Chad shook his head, and the music stopped.
Chad saw that Taylor on the floor, a frown on her face.
"What?" he asked, absentedly.
"You leaned too far in her." Haylie explained, while Ryan chuckled.
Chad glared at him, and the chuckling stopped.
He then turned his attention to Haylie, who was helping Taylor up.
Chad realized that Haylie was glaring at him, and that was first.
Haylie's personality was never rain clouds and gloom, but sunny.
"Are you serious about the competion, or are you wishing you were at basketball practice right now?" she asked, and Chad was ataken back by her new tone of voice.
"I am!" he said.
"Good." Haylie replied, going back to Ryan.
"What's up with her?" Chad asked Taylor.
"She's just abit stressed with the competion, Chad. Give her a break." Taylor said, picking up her backpack.
"Hey, I didn't agree on this. My girlfriend made me come." Chad replied, picking up his own backpack as well.
"Chad, I signed us up because I thought it'd be fun. Plus, it'd give me a way to shine."
Chad followed her down the steps, while saying, "You already shine. Through math and science."
Taylor turned around, and gave him another smile.
"Thanks for the compliment, Chad."
Chad noticed that there was some sadness in her tone, and he looked at her.
"Is something wrong, McKessie?" he asked.
Taylor shook her head.
"No, of course not!" Taylor said defensively, but Chad already took her hand, and led her towards the stage.
"Okay, tell me what's wrong because I know there is." Chad stated.
"There isn't, Chad. I told you that already." Taylor insisted.
"There is. I can tell." Chad pressed.
Taylor sighed, and he knew she had given in.
"I want to do something other than math and science, you know...like Gabriella and Troy."
Chad raised an eyebrow, but smiled.
"Hey, if you told me that sooner, I'd enjoyed it more."
"I thought you'd laugh." Taylor replied.
"Taylor, I'd never laughed at something you wanted to do. And if this dance competion means that much to you, then I guess I can help you with it...actually, I had no choice because you agreed for the both of us." Chad said, while grinning, and Taylor threw him a glare.
But, then her expression changed to a smile as she slid off the stage.
"Thanks, Chad. It really means alot to me."
"No problem." Chad said, raking a hand through his untamed, wild afro.
As he watched his girlfriend go, Chad held that smile for just a second.
Then, he frowned he realized something:
He was probably the worst dancer in history of dancers.
