A/N: This was the first fanfic I ever wrote, so if it's not the best, I understand. This came from a random idea that I got while reading Diary of a Wimpy Kid, so…. Yeah.
*Artemis is sitting on a couch in the living room, staring off into space being bored*
Me: *enters room* Hey, Artemis, want to try dancing today?
Arty: What?
Me: You know, dancing. Like, moving around to music and all. I thought I could teach you some popular dances.
Arty: No.
Me: Aww, why not?
Arty: Just... no.
Me: Pleeeeaaassee? *gives puppy dog look*
Arty: *grumbling* Alright, fine.
Me: Yay! *claps hands* Okay, I thought we could start out by learning the... Hokey Pokey!
Arty: What is the "Hokey Pokey"?
Me: *looks at him sadly* You poor, deprived child. That's why I'm going to show you how to do it! Then you can just copy me. *pulls out iPod* Let's get started! *performs whole Hokey Pokey dance* Well?
Arty: There is no way you are getting me to do that.
Me: Pleeeaaasse? Pretty pretty please with pistachio nuts on top?
Arty: I don't like pistachio nuts.
Me: I don't care, just do the dance already!
Arty: No.
Me: *pulls out Silly String and points it at him menacingly* Are you sure you don't want to retract that statement?
Arty: *gulps* I'll do it, I'll do it!
Me: Good. Now go. *starts music on iPod again*
Arty: *performs whole Hokey Pokey*
Me: *laughing hysterically* That... was... hilarious! Ha ha ha!
Arty: *scowls* See? That's why I don't like dancing.
Me: No, really! That was funny! Now I can teach you another dance!
Arty: What?
Me: Yeah! Okay, now I am going to teach you the Funky Chicken.
Arty: Right, that is it. I'm leaving! *starts stalking out of room*
Me: Noo! Please don't go!
Arty: *stops and half turns around to face me* Why?
Me: Because... um... because... because you're such a, uh, *cough*great*cough* dancer! Yeah! Because you're so good!
Arty: *glares at me suspiciousy*
Me: *puppy dog look* Pleeeeaaasssseee?
Arty: I'm not falling for that.
Me: Aw, c'mon Arty! Please please please? If you want, I can even show you the Ducky Wucky dance afterward!
Arty: *runs screaming from room* NONONONONONONO!
Me: *runs after him* YESYESYESYESYESYESYES!
Arty: *runs out front door and out the gates* NOOOOOOO!
Me: *still runs after him* Please?
Arty: *runs out into street* *cars honk and swerve to avoid him* *chaos ensues*
Me: *stops on the sidewalk* Oh, well. The authorities will have to catch him eventually. Until then, I think I'll go into his study and see what important stuff I can mess up! *on second thought* I think I'll go get a cup of coffee, then go into his study and see what important stuff I can spill it on! Yay! *looks around* Now, where's the nearest Starbucks...?
~fifteen minutes later~
Holly: *is waiting for me at Starbucks* Well? How'd it go?
Me: It was a complete success!
A/N: I realize that the last bit might be OOC, but it was strictly for humor purposes. *takes deep breath* Well, I hope it wasn't terrible.
Have a nice day!
