Chapter 2
Dance Lessons
After School
Music Room # 3
Kennedy slung her bag over her shoulder and looked at the door of Music room # 3. How did she get into this when she should have been on her way home from school to learn how to dance. She took a deep breath and opened the door. She looked in and saw the seven men in the music room. She raised an eyebrow seeing the brown haired boy standing there that kind of looked feminine just like she did. Is it possible that he is really a she? She thought to herself, but it was quickly pushed from her mind.
"Valentine-kun so wonderful for you to join us." Tamaki said with a huge smile looking at her.
Kennedy placed her bag down onto one of the chairs. "Happy to be here." She muttered, as she ran her fingers through her hair. "So I take it that this is the boy that needs the dancing lessons?" She asked as she took off her blazer and placing it on the chair with her bag.
Haruhi looked at the six guys. "You asked him to come here to teach me how to dance?"
"He is a well known dancer." Tamaki said, waving his hands around.
Kennedy raised her eyebrow. "Let me guess you went behind his back to ask me to teach him how to dance? That kind of sounds like a load of shit to me." Kennedy said, crossing her arms in an upset manner. "If I knew I wouldn't have agreed to teach him how to dance." She grabbed a pair of dance shoes and switched them so she could teach Haruhi how to dance. "Alright... you can take off your blazer." She walked over to the cd player that was in the room to teach this host how to properly dance. She switched it on and soft music came from the player. Kennedy closed her eyes and listened to the music that the hosts wanted Haruhi to learn how to dance to. Should have known that they would choose this style of music. She thought to herself. She walked back over towards Haruhi that had his blazer off. "First thing ignore everything that you have learned prior to this."
Haruhi's eyes went wide.
"Trust me on this." Kennedy said, forcing a smile onto her face.
Kyoya looked at her and knew that the smile was fake. He scribbled into his black book.
"I am a professional."
"Professional... I thought Tamaki sempai that you are a well known dancer?" Haruhi said, slightly confused.
Kennedy ran her hand through her hair again. "Yes, but I am also a professional. My parents own a studio. So I am almost as good as them." It wasn't a lie. She was actually as good as she said she was. She had been dancing since she was a young child with her brother and now it was still the same. She was still a very good dance regardless of what had happened to her. "Shall we get started?"
ÀÃÀÃÀÃÀÃ
Kennedy continued to try and teach the younger student how to dance. "Ok... for the last time.. don't look at your feet!" Kennedy scolded Haruhi.
The hosts watched Kennedy teach Haruhi and they knew that Kennedy's teaching skills were much different than Kanako's teachings. They had to admit that Kennedy took pride in what he did.
"You must lead the girl in this dance. This isn't the Pasodoble." Kennedy said, as she placed Haruhi's hand's properly once again as if Kennedy herself was the girl at the moment. "And this isn't the Viennese Waltz either."
Haruhi and Kennedy moved gracefully across the floor.
Kennedy had to admit that she was glad to see that Haruhi was making improvements to the dancing skills that he lacked. Kennedy every once and a while had to move Haruhi's hands for slipping either lower than what they were supposed to be or they raised higher than they were supposed to be as well. Kennedy stopped moving her feet for a moment. "I think that would be enough for today." Kennedy said, forcing another smile onto her face.
Haruhi moved away from Kennedy. "Thank you Valentine-sempai." Haruhi said, bowing his head.
"Kennedy-san would you show us one other dance?" Tamaki asked, curiously.
Kennedy stilled for a moment. "Another dance? Souh-san I know so many dances that it isn't funny. It depends on the style that you are looking for."
"I was thinking the Argentine Tango." Tamaki a smile gracing his lips.
"The Argentine Tango?" Kennedy asked in shock. She hadn't done the Argentine Tango in two years. Now she was being asked to dance it again? She didn't know if she could even do it. "With who Souh-san?"
"Kyoya of course." Tamaki said beaming with a huge smile on his face.
Kennedy's eyes went wide. He didn't know why she truly was here. No one knew about the accident that had caused her and her family to move here and everyone thought she was a male. She really didn't want to try and dance with Kyoya. "I really should be going." She said, trying to back away from the hosts.
"Tamaki-sempai... if Valentine-sempai doesn't want to dance than he doesn't have to. I am sure that he has other places to be." Haruhi said, to the blond haired teen.
Tamaki went to his corner of woe.
Kennedy blinked a few times. She hadn't seen someone do that since her brother when he never got his way with things. She let out a sigh and ran her hand through her hair. "Would it make you feel better if I danced the Argentine Tango?" She asked, as she crossed her arms looking at him. Concern was etched across her face.
Tamaki stood up quickly from his corner of woe and nodded his head.
Kennedy took a deep breath. "Alright." She said softly. "I will do it if it keeps you out of he corner of woe." She hated it when people were in the corner of woe. "And that is if Ootori-san doesn't mind dancing with me that is."
Kyoya pushed his glasses up his nose. "If it keeps Tamaki under control then yes." He told her forcing a fake smile upon his lips.
Kennedy knew that his smile was fake since she also smiled fake smiles as well. She knew that he was hiding something from the others such as how he truly felt. Kennedy held out her hand to him and waited for him to take it.
Kyoya took Kennedy's hand. He felt her place his hands were they were supposed to be if he was dancing with a woman. Kyoya was surprised that she had placed his hands there.
The two of them glided across the dance floor in the wonderful way of the Argentine Tango. Everything was going great with the dance. They made sure that they had stuck to the original version of the Argetine Tango.
The rest of the hosts watched the two of them move across the floor like a couple.
"Is it me... or does Kyoya-sempai look like he is enjoying this?" Haruhi asked, her eyes going wide.
"Well this is Kyoya's rarest form." Tamaki said with a smile. "He is one of the best dancers that I know."
Kennedy stopped dancing. She pulled away from him. Her heart rate went through the roof. She hadn't danced like that in a long while. "I... I should go." She said grabbing her bag and blazer. She slipped out of the room and down the hallway.
"What was that about?" The twins asked at the same time.
"I don't know." Tamaki said, softly. He was concerned about Kennedy. He had never seen someone move so quickly.
ÀÃÀÃÀÃÀÃ
Kennedy got out of the limo and ran inside of the house.
"Kenny what happened honey? You were running." Kennedy's father said.
"I'm fine dad... I'm just going to go to my room." She said, running up the stairs. She didn't want to tell her parents what had happened on her first day of school. It really scared her that she was that close to a guy that hardly showed his emotions. She threw the door open to her room and quickly slammed it behind her. She leaned up against the door trying to keep her tears from falling from her eyes. She slid down the door and was now sitting on the floor. She brought her knees up to her chest. Tears had begun to fall freely from her eyes and there was no way that she could stop them from falling. She wiped her eyes with her hands.
There was a soft knock on the door. "Kennedy... honey... your father said you ran up here... is everything alright?" Her mother's soft voice rang out to her.
Kennedy got up to her feet. "I am fine mother." She said, lying to her mother. She didn't want her mother to know that she had been crying.
"Alright if you say so... Were you going to the studio this evening?"
Kennedy took a deep breath and opened her door a little bit peaking her head out. Kennedy shook her head. "No, I was planning on it, but I do have homework to get done." She said softly. "And it is a lot of it."
"Ok honey... don't push it too hard... you wouldn't want to tire yourself out."
Kennedy forced another smile onto her lips. "I won't mom... I'll be down for dinner." She told her mother.
Her mother nodded her head. "Alright..."
Kennedy shut the door and let out a sigh. She decided to go and change her clothes into something more comfortable. She slipped into a pair of sleep pants that she only wore when she was at home or was at the studio if she wanted to have a lazy day and a black cotton tank top. She ran her fingers through her messy hair and decided to get right to work on her homework.
ÀÃÀÃÀÃÀÃ
Kennedy bit the tip of her eraser as she worked out the problems for her math homework. She ran her fingers through her hair again as she worked on the homework. She knew math fairly well, but it took her a lot longer to do her homework. She had already eaten with the rest of her family and now she was finishing the last bit of her homework.
Once she had finished her homework she decided that she should go to bed. She stretched her back out and went towards her bed to get some much needed sleep since she had moved here and hadn't gotten much.
