A/N: Hey guys! I'm really really sorry I didn't post on Sunday like I said I would. I have a reason though- last week was Homecoming week at my high school, and since I'm on Student Council, it was CRAZY. But now I'm back and should be posting regularly again.

This next chapter is kind of a continuation of A is for Apple, because the party they're at is the Aphrodite Cabin's aforementioned celebration of the SCOTUS ruling.

The idea came from EchoStory. Although I loved the other suggestions, (D is for Dad sounds hilarious) the idea of my ship slow dancing always gets me so I decided to give it a shot myself.

Disclaimer: No, I am not a troll god.

D is for Dancing

"Why did I let you talk me into this again?" I grumbled, crossing my arms. After a (painful) hour with Hazel and Piper, I had been deemed dance ready, at which point Will had showed up and "escorted" (dragged) me to the party. I was in no mood to be here- I was still mad at him over the little incident with the apple from earlier, and I would much rather be in bed with a book.

"You're here because I asked you. Now suck it up Di Angelo." Will replied, not looking at me. His eyes were fixed on the dance floor, and I could tell he was itching to get out there. I had no interest in joining him. My eyes wandered to the decorations.

Everything was rainbow (courtesy of the Iris Cabin). Ok, maybe everything is an exaggeration. The party was outdoors, so all the trees in the vicinity were draped in rainbow banners. There were lanterns of every color of the rainbow hanging from the branches. The snack table had cookies arranged into a rainbow. A lot of people were wearing rainbow tie-dye or gay pride t shirts. Hazel and Piper had forced me into a blue shirt, claiming the color looked good on me. Oh the irony.

"Wanna dance?" Will asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.

I blinked at him. "Excuse me?" I wasn't sure I had heard right.

Will sighed. "Would you like to dance?" he repeated, offering his hand.

I stared at his hand. "I-um, no. No thanks." I stammered finally.

He raised his eyebrows. "Why not?"

I shrugged, trying to look casual so he didn't see how much his question unnerved me. "I just don't dance." I didn't like dancing because I always felt like everyone was watching me and judging my every move. But I definitely couldn't tell him that.

"Oh, please. Everybody dances." Will told me, offering a lopsided smile.

"Not everyone." I said, smiling a little in return. "You go ahead. I'll watch."

Will jabbed his finger at me. "You are dancing with me before the night ends, Di Angelo." he said stubbornly.

"Sure. Now go have fun." I told him, leaning on a tree. "I promise I won't sneak away." I added.

Will backed into the crowd of dancers. He winked at me, then disappeared into the middle. Something about that wink made me feel uneasy, but I was too tired to find out what he was up to. I leaned on the wall and sipped on some punch.

My eyes found Will in the crowd. He was dancing, and he looked like he was having fun. He always complained about how he had no musical talent, but he was wrong. He could dance better than almost the entire camp.

The song ended. Will returned, smiling brightly. "That was fun."

"Mm." I said noncommittally. I promptly downed the rest of my punch. "Looked it."

He laughed. "Come on. Join me for this next one."

"No."

"You said it looked fun." He pointed out.

"Fun for you. Not me."

"Just one dance." He pleaded.

I chewed on my lip. He was stubborn. "All right. Just one dance." I agreed.

He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of my comfort zone and into the crowd. We ended up by the boombox. Will let go of me started dancing again. I stood, unsure of what do, occasionally shuffling my feet awkwardly.

Will noticed my pathetic attempts and rolled his eyes. "It's not that hard, Nico." he said.

"Easy for you to say." I snapped.

"It's really not." he persisted. "Here- take my hand."

I slid my hands into his warm ones. The song changed into something with a softer, slower beat.

"Now move your feet." he told me, slowly swaying from side to side. I copied him.

"Move a little closer." he continued, pulling me towards him until it felt like there was electricity crackling in the space between us. I blushed furiously.

"I am not putting my hands on your shoulders." I growled at him.

"Mmm," Will agreed noncommittally. "Just dance."

"Fine." I huffed.

We swayed together as the music spiralled around us.

A/N: I picture them dancing to "All of Me" by John Legend in case you were curious. I just didn't feel like writing a song fic. I might change that if I have more time. I know it's a little rushed, but I didn't want to leave you guys hanging for too long.

Ideas for E? I'm kinda stuck...Reviews are highly appreciated!
