A/N: Only my OC's belong to me.
Ty walked into the dance studio and watched the last few seconds of the show his sister is on. It seemed like everyone in Chicago watched that show and constantly random people stopped them on the streets to get an autograph. He leaned against the vanity and watched Gary say goodbye but his eyes wandered to the face of a girl right behind Gary. She looked about his age and her smile seemed to light up the room. He couldn't take his eyes off of her and he didn't notice when Rocky and CeCe came up to him. It took snapping fingers from CeCe and a slap on the cheek from Rocky to get Ty's attention.
"Ty what were you staring at?" Rocky asked.
"Rocky look," CeCe said pointing in the direction Ty was staring at again.
Rocky looked at the girl and laughed. Ty glared at Rocky and she stopped laughing.
"What's so funny?" Ty asked.
"That's Lexi she's new, fifteen years old, way out of your league, and besides she has a boyfriend already who is your age but is way more mature than you," Rocky said.
"Boyfriend?" Ty asked.
Cece pointed to a guy who entered the studio and walked over to Lexi and kissed her on the cheek. Ty's eyes never left Lexi even as she passed by them, exchanged a few words with Rocky and CeCe, smiled politely at Ty, and continued walking. He snapped out of his trance and looked at Rocky.
"What did she say?" Ty asked excitedly.
"I invited her to our house, she's new here, and she hasn't started school so she doesn't know many people," Rocky said.
"Our house? When is she coming?" Ty asked.
"Ya our house, she moved into our building so I don't know when she will come. Don't flirt with her she has a boyfriend." Rocky said.
"Can you drop us at the mall first," CeCe asked.
Ty rolled his eyes and the three left the studio and jumped into Ty's car. He drove to the mall dropped them off and drove back to the apartment.
Inside of the apartment Ty flopped onto the couch in his room and picked up his guitar. He strummed for a bit before playing an original song. He just finished when he heard the doorbell. He jogged into the living room and opened the door without seeing who it is. Ty assumed it was Rocky but at the sight of Lexi, Ty froze.
"Hi," he managed to say.
"Hi I'm Lexi, Rocky told me to come over. Are they here?"
"I'm Ty and no they are out shopping come in," Ty managed to say and move out of the way.
Lexi entered and Ty took a deep breath before closing the door behind him and walking over to where she was. She sat down on their couch and Ty went over to their kitchen.
"Would you like something to drink?" Ty asked grabbing two water bottles.
"Water please."
Ty was already on the couch next to her handing her the bottle and taking a sip before she realized it.
"So you dance," Ty said.
"Ya, but not only hip hop. I take ballet, tap, jazz, contemporary, modern, ballroom, and latin."
"You must be a busy sixteen year old," Ty said giving his signature smile.
"Ya and I sing so I guess I do a lot of extracurricular activities but I'm fifteen. How about you?"
"I dance hip hop and I play guitar. I guess I'm not as busy as you and I'm sixteen."
"There is no shame in that. You play guitar? I've always wanted to learn how to play the guitar."
"I can teach you if you want let me go get my guitar."
Before Ty could get to his room a knock on the door redirected his route.
"Hey hey hey," Rocky said entering the room.
"Oh you're here Lexi sorry we were shopping longer than we thought," CeCe said.
"It's okay Ty was keeping me company," Lexi said sending a smile to Ty.
"Then I really am sorry," Rocky said closing the door behind her and quickly running into her room to drop her bags off.
"So I guess I'll teach you another time Lexi," Ty said smiling before heading to his room.
CeCe, who was on the other side of Lexi, noticed how she bit her lip until Ty left and then she turned around. Rocky came into the room and jumped happily up and down.
"Let's go to the park," Rocky said and the three of them walked out the door.
An hour later the three of them returned to Rocky's house laughing and giggling. They were greeted by Ty setting the table and Rocky's mom putting food on the table.
"Thanks for showing me around Rocky and CeCe, I'll see you at the show."
"No come on stay for dinner," Rocky said.
"No I don't want to intrude," Lexi said.
"Oh hush up we would love to have you over," Rocky's mom said.
"Thank you," Lexi said walking into the house and dropping her bag on the couch.
"If you don't enjoy the cooking blame Ty he decided to finally use his gift for cooking today," Rocky's mom said.
CeCe watched Lexi raise an eyebrow and saw Ty blush. She seemed to be the only one paying attention to them because no one seemed to notice Ty pulling out Lexi's chair and pushing it in. After some awkward silence of eating Lexi looked at the watch on her hand.
"Oh I must get home. Thank you for the wonderful meal," Lexi said heading out the door.
