To Love You More
Disclaimer: I own nothing at all
Hi guys! I'm backed with a new Shake it Up story which I have been planning for months and finally its here.
This will not be a long story like my Our Last Summer Together, this will only have like maybe 10-12 chapters... depend on how I want play with the characters.
This story will have two parts, one part Gece and the final part Cogan!
I am writing another story for another show so bear with me if I am a bit slow on update as this is the first time I am writing more than one story at a time.
Part One Intro:
Now they are both 16, just as Cece and Rocky step closer to the next year, Gunther returned. Gunther proposed his love for Cece saying that she was all he could think about when he was in the old country. Cece ignored him for a few days, until during a rehearsal Gary paired them up for a Valentine's Day Special dance which make Cece start to have feelings for Gunther. They get together a week later.
Chapter One
It has been a month after Cece had her sweet sixteen party with her best friend, Rocky Blue. Everything is wonderful and perfect for the gang and this day, the gang has gathered at Crusty's to have lunch and also to decide on their weekend plans.
Crusty's – Saturday Afternoon (After Shake It Up Chicago)
"I say we go to the Beach!" Cece said with a demanding tone.
"I would love to go to the beach! It has been a while since we have been to the beach!" Rocky agreed with her best friend.
"The beach sounds great, but shouldn't we wait for Tinka to arrive before we confirm our plans for the weekend?" Dina asked as she exchange looks with her boyfriend and Ty.
"Where is that girl? It's not like her to be twenty minutes…"
Before Cece could finish, Tinka arrived, "Hi guys! Sorry I'm late, but I have a perfect good reason for me being late!"
Everyone turned to look at the foreign girl with an expression filled with excitement. Just as Rocky was about to ask what is wrong, a male foreign accent interrupted.
"Hey Babeee!"
"Gunther! You're back!"
Everyone jumped up to run over to the sparkling boy to give their old friend a hug.
"Welcome back, man!" Ty greeted as he was the last one to give Gunther a hug.
"Thanks! I miss you guys a lot when I was back in the old country!" Gunther smiled at them.
Cece frowned for a bit when she saw Gunther looking at her when he said he misses them as if he had a hidden a meaning in that sentence. She just shrugged the thought off, thinking she is just being paranoid.
"How was the old country? Tinka said you returned to the old country to take care of the farm and your grandparents?" Ty asked after they were all seated.
Gunther nodded, "There was a big storm that ruined our farm so I need to return to help them repair all the damage as our grandparents are very old and after a year, we have finally managed to return our farm back to its former glory!"
"So does this mean that you will be returning to Shake It Up Chicago?" Cece asked.
"Yes! Tinka just called Gary for me and he said I am welcomed back onto the show and my parents have already helped me register for school! I will return to school on Monday with you guys!" Gunther announced.
"Sweet! So this means it will be like old times!" Rocky did a little silent clapping with her hands.
"Alright, enough about Gunther!" Tinka interrupted, "Have you guys decided on where to go this weekend?"
Cece nodded excitedly at her, "We were thinking the beach!"
"I love the beach! I have not been to an actual beach for a year! I am so going to the beach with you guys!" Gunther exclaimed while Tinka nodded her head beside him.
"Alright! That's it! We are going to the beach tomorrow!" Ty concluded.
Beach – Sunday Morning
Early in the morning, the gang hopped into a mini RV Deuce borrowed from his dad with Ty as their driver and drove to the beach to have a sunny and wet Sunday.
The girls were all tanning on the beach while the guys all head towards the waves for some surfing time.
Tinka let out a sigh as she rested her back onto her beach chair with legs crossed, "I am so glad Gunther is back!"
Rocky turned to look at her, "It is nice to have him back! Tinka, I know it has been hard on you when Gunther returned to the old country. It's like your other wing is broken off, but he's now back, isn't he?"
Tinka turned and gave Rocky a smile, "I know! I just felt so different now! I mean I know I will always have Gunther, but when he left, I was alone and I felt really lost but luckily now I had you guys. And finally Gunther is back, I know that this is nothing could be more perfect now!"
Cece got up from her beach chair to give the sparkling girl a hug, "Aww, Tinka! We are very happy that we are best friends too! You can always count on us!"
Rocky and Dina nodded at Tinka from their beach chair.
"Oh! Come on, girls! We're at the beach! And all you girls do is sit in your beach chairs under an umbrella? You girls should be enjoying the beach and have fun!"
The guys have all returned back to shore and they were now sitting on the huge beach tower, next to the girls, while drying themselves with beach towers they brought.
Rocky sat up and stared at her big brother, "So what do you want to do now?"
The guys shared a look before Deuce smirked as he took out a beach volleyball, "How about volleyball? Losers buy smoothies?"
Cece rolled her eyes at him, "Oh! You are so on! Girls versus Guys!"
Ty stifled a chuckle, "Bring it on! I am sure you girls cannot beat us even if four against three!"
After playing beach volleyball by the court on the beach for a few hours, the girls have proven themselves that girls are not weak with the scoreboard of 2 – 1. Since the guys lost, Ty and Deuce head over to the smoothie shop a few miles away, after taking down their orders, while Rocky, Tinka and Dina went to the ladies.
"How was your day back in Chicago?" Cece asked casually as she sat beside him on the tower.
Gunther tore his eyes from the beautiful Chicago beach and turned to her, "It has been amazing! I have not had such a relaxing day for a very long time! It's good to be back!"
Cece chuckled, "Don't worry! There will be more to come!"
Gunther smiled as he admired Cece's beautiful smile, "I know! And I am looking forward to them!"
Gunther stared at Cece for another few minutes before he took a deep breathe, "Cece?" Cece turned towards him, "I miss you!"
Cece widen her eyes in shock at the half-naked foreign boy as he continued, "I know this is a little bit fast, but I have already wasted one year in the old country and all I could think all when I was in the old country was you. You don't have to give me an answer yet, but please at least promise me you will think about it, about us?"
Cece started to feel a little light-headed as she got lost in his blue eyes. Cece sat speechless until the rest of the gang returned, and it took Rocky a few shooks before Cece recovered from the shock Gunther just gave her.
"What's wrong?" Rocky whispered to her.
Cece blinked a few times and started to realise she is not dreaming, Gunther did just ask her out just now. She knew this is not a good time to discuss this issue with Rocky so she just shook her head at Rocky and gave her a look.
Being Cece's best friend since young, Rocky instantly understood what she meant so she just returned her a nod before she turned to her brother to get her smoothie.
The gang hanged by the beach for the rest of the afternoon, taking turns to swim in the sea until it was almost sunset. They then started parking before they returned to the mini RV.
Jones' Apartment – Sunday Night
After Cece and Rocky had dinner with their friends, the two of them returned to Cece's apartment for a sleepover. The two of them were now sitting on Cece's bed under the comfy sheets, in their pjs, talking about what happened earlier.
"What! Gunther asked you out on the…" Rocky shrieked.
Instantly, Cece bounced onto her with a hand over her mouth to prevent her from announcing it to the whole building.
"Rocky!" Cece growled at her, with her hand still over her mouth, "You better get a hold of yourself before everyone in the building heard you!"
Rocky nodded in reply, Cece stared at her for a few seconds and after making sure she will not scream and squeal again, she removed her hand from her mouth.
"Oh my god! That is so romantic!" Rocky blurted out the moment Cece let her go.
"Rocky!" Cece frowned at her, "I am freaking out right now! I have always seen Gunther as a friend. I don't want to ruin our friendship when I reject him."
"Cece, you really don't feel anything towards Gunther?" Rocky voiced out her doubts after looking at her best friend for a minute.
Cece looked at her best friend as she rethink her feelings towards Gunther and after a few seconds, she shook her head at her.
Rocky exhaled a heavy sigh, "Then Cece, will you consider giving him a chance? May be when you are willing to give it a try, you may get a different outcome." She then laid her back onto the bed to rest for the night, "You will never know if you don't try."
Cece stared at her best friend's back as she started to give her suggestion a thought, should she give it a try? May be Rocky is right, there is no harm in trying, but what if it went overboard and ruin their friendship? Cece is starting to have a feeling an old friend name insomnia will be visiting her tonight.
Shake It Up Studio – Wednesday Afternoon
After school, the gang all headed to Shake It Up studio for their rehearsal for Saturday's show. The gang hung around the stage as they waited for Gary to appear to tell them this week's theme.
"Everyone gather around!" When all the dance crew has moved over to Gary, he continued, "This week we will be doing our valentine's day special so I will need to pair you guys up for a waltz section."
Gary's assistance Mandy appeared behind him and handed a file to him, "Thanks, Mandy! Alright, I will now announce your pairings: Ty Blue and Tinka Hessenheffer; Cece Jones and Gunther Hessenheffer; Rocky Blue and James Benward…"
Cece stood frozen with widened eyes, in between Ty and Rocky with the words Cece Jones and Gunther Hessenheffer repeating over and over again in her mind. She has been spending the past two days avoiding Gunther and now she has no choice but to do the waltz with Gunther, close to each other with nowhere to run and hide. She started to wonder if fate is trying to joke with her or is fate trying to tell her something.
A/N： Is Cece starting to feel something for Gunther?
Next we will see what happened when Cece and Gunther do the Waltz together...
Please read and review
