Chapter 9 :

It was kisses all round as Blake shook a lot of hands and greeted his ex students. Tyler followed him with his eyes.

" Tell me Andie, do you wear something so select for us ?" asked Fly.

" No, I had a meeting after the party," she replied hurriedly.

" Let the party continue!" exclaimed Chase creating a slight diversion allowing Andie to get her breath back.

They all moved to the dancefloor, with each demonstrating their dancing ability, all except for Blake who went in search of drinks. When he returned
the conversation began about the future.

" Speaking about the future, I would like to create a new post at the start of the new year for street dance," Blake announced.

" That'd be awesome!" Monster exclaimed.

" However, I won't be the teacher, I'm only a debutante in that type of dance," he looked at Andie, " I would like it a lot if Andie, I mean if Miss
West, would agree to become my teacher."

" Andie, that's a great offer," exclaimed Moose.

" It is, but what about Chase?"

" What about Chase? We've never worked well together and I doubt we ever will. I heard last night that he was considering joining Mister Gage's crew
along with some others here."

Moose, Jenny, Hair, Fly and Chase all nodded in agreement with Blake's
statement.

" All right, I accept. This is going to be amazing," Andie beamed.

" Perfect! School will begin September the 9th," Blake smiled.

" Blake, can I ask you why you changed your mind so quickly? Before you didn't want to hear about it,"

" I had three good reasons, first some hidden talents were revealed, all the people here for starters, and I know I will find more people in proposing
a more opened selection. The second reason, it's better to dance officially than each night in secret. If this year there are accidents I will be the
first responsible!"

" How did you know about it?" asked Cable.

Chase looked at Andie who nodded subtly, and Blake followed his look.

" No, Andie didn't tell me anything, she was always a good friend to you. I just wasn't that stupid."

Andie felt the blush creep onto her face.

" What is the third reason?"

" It's Miss West, she showed me how to combine perfectly two opposite dances during our night lessons,"

Andie smiled at him.

" Good job Andie!" exclaimed Moose, "It's obvious now that the teacher should be you,"

As Andie thanked him, the others couldn't help but notice the degree of intimacy between the two. Before her friends could bombard her with the
questions she knew they were dying to ask, Andie suggested that she perform her final piece once more.

"Since three people weren't here earlier, I would like to show you my final piece, which was for me more interesting and calmer."

" But I prefer the street dance," Moose grinned cheekily.

" Yes, but as you could see I couldn't do it in those clothes, it would have been much too complicated. After, if Chase wants to, I would really like
to see his presentation."

Chase agreed, knowing that Andie would be seeing it for the first time.

A round of applause rewarded Andie as she finished her final dance, Chase was rewarded with a special congratulations from his brother.

" Good, it was a great presentation, very dynamic. Your grate was perfect," Blake smiled, clapping his brother on the shoulder.

After a few other dances and some new conversations, Blake congratulated the group once more, wished them luck and left. Andie followed him a few minutes
later.

" Tyler, if you stay a little longer in Baltimore we will see each other during the holiday,"

" Promise? We should talk…"

" No problem. Chase can talk to you about that if you want," she said before saying farewell to the group and leaving.

Blake's surprise made Andie really happy; they went to see the best ballet in the US which did only one performance in Baltimore. For Andie, the holidays
couldn't have gotten off to a better start.

Conclusion :

Andie taught her first lesson on September the 9th and was surprised by ease with which teaching came to her. All of her students had a good basic grasp on
street dancing and all held promise as great dancers in the future. During lunch time after her class, she had the wonderful fortune to see Blake.

" It's him the director, he is so sexy but so severe," she heard student whisper as they tidied up their things.

Andie make a little gesture with her hand telling him she would meet him soon, but he was already near her and he took her by surprise with a tender
kiss.

" Do you know how many times I've dreamed of doing that in this school?" whispered Blake.

Andie smiled and then reddened feeling numerous pairs of eyes staring at them.

" Class, the lesson is finished," Blake told the surrounding students. The students left amidst a buzz of whispers.

" I came to take you to lunch, I have news of Chase," he said softly,burying his face in her hair, pressing a soft kiss to her throat.

" Oh, great! Moose too?"

" From all the crew,"

" That's great. Sarah invited you to dinner with us tonight, nothing to formal, don't worry," she smiled.

" I love Sarah and Charlie. I will wait for you outside. See you in a few minutes, love you,"

" Love you too,"

Blake smiled and left. Andie exited the room with a huge smile on her face and love filling her heart, her life was perfect. She knew that she would
never be able to thank Tyler enough for giving her that initial nudge and for continuing to push her.
