Later that day...

Ratliff and Cassie had been out for the day and just hung out after Ratliff got his confused feelings towards Ross.

Don't get him wrong Ross was an awesome guy, amazing infact. But Ratliff never thought he'd end up liking him this way... EVER. He always thought he'd hate him for life or eventually be friends. Like now. Not end up getting feelings for eachother. That's the type of thing that happens between a boy and girl.. Not a boy and boy. Even though Ross doesn't have any feelings for Ratliff. Or does he?

No he doesn't.

Ratliff is stupid to think Ross will have feelings for him. He likes... Maia.

Grr.. Maia.

Right now, Ratliff and Cassie had just got back to the center and by the looks of things everyone was setting up for what looked like a party.

"Laura," Cassie said walking up to her "what's going on?" "Demonica's decided to throw the party dance thing today." Laura said with a balloon in her hand. She then let go of it.

The balloon then flew over and once it was out of air it smacked Ross in the face as he walked into the room "Okay, who done that?!" Ross asked. Laura then looked away and scratched the back of her head nervously. "That answers that question.." Ross mumbled looking at Laura.

He then walked over to Cassie and Ratliff "Have you guys seen Maia?" Ross asked. "No." Ratliff snapped. "Jeez, someone needs a hug.." Ross said walking away back to Laura.

Cassie turned to Ratliff "Snapping at him is not gonna help you know..." Cassie said. "Sorry, its just my immediate reaction to things.." Ratliff said rocking back and forth. "Look, you helped Ross dance.. That was a nice thing you done." Cassie said. "Ratliff taught Ross how to dance.." Laura said as she walked up to them. "Yeah!" Cassie said. Ratliff rolled his eyes. "Oh, that's so sweet! Tell me more!" Laura said. "Okay!" Cassie said taking Laura by the arm to the side. Ratliff just shook his head.

Ratliff then felt a tap on his shoulder, he turned around and came face to face with none other than.. Maia Mitchel. "Have you seen Ross?" Maia asked. "Yeah, why?" Ratliff asked. "I wanna apologize to him for the way I acted the other day." Maia said. "What about the way you acted to me..?" Ratliff asked. "I didn't act like anything to you?" Maia questioned. "Your kidding me right.." Ratliff said.

Maia shook her head "Just tell me where-" Maia then saw Ross "oh hey Ross!" Maia said going up to him. "Oh hey Maia." Ross said smiling. "Look, I am sorry for the other day accusing you of having something going on between you and Ratliff." Maia said. "Its fine," Ross said "Ratliff just picked the wrong time to come up to me and talk.." Maia nodded. "So does this mean that you'll.." "Be your girlfriend?" Maia asked "yes I will!" Ross almost shrieked with excitement "Yay!" Ross said.

Maia smiled "But that rule about you and Ratliff still goes," Maia said "if I see even the slightest of thing between you two.. then we're back to being friends and then I will make sure you both end up together. Because by that point I'll be sick of playing games." Ross let out a little laugh and nodded "Alright, I got it."

"Awe!" Laura said going up to Ross while Maia was there "as if you and Ratliff did that! That is so sweet." Maia threw Ross a puzzled look. Ross looked at Laura like she was mad "Laura.. What are you talking about..?" Ross asked. "Ratliff! I can't believe it!" Laura said smiling. "Can't believe what..?" Ross asked. "That you were dancing with him yesterday." Laura said. Still smiling.

Ross then looked over to Maia, who didn't look impressed she just rolled her eyes. "Jesus Ross," Maia said "forget about it. Forget about us. You two clearly like eachother!" "No we don't," Ross said "he was teaching me how to slow dance because Laura, Cassie and Jaymee weren't around." "Why did you wanna know how to slow dance anyway?!" Maia asked. "Uhh.." Ross trailed off "see.. If you'd of waited till tonight you'd of saw.."

Maia folded her arms "Did you feel anything when you were dancing with him?" Maia asked. "What's that supposed to mean?" Ross asked "jeez.. We've been in a relationship 5 seconds and we're already having a fight!" Maia sighed "Your right.." Maia said "we just shouldn't date. Have a good night with Ratliff, Ross." She said before walking away.

Ross sighed and dropped his head.

"I'm having the feeling that was the wrong time to come over and say that..." Laura said. "Oh no, ya think?" Ross said sarcastically. "Sorry.." Laura said. "No, no," Ross said "it's okay.. I'll just get her tonight at the dance."

That Night

Everyone was back at the center all ready for the dance Demonica was throwing. Even Maia was there. But Ross wasn't there.

"Where is he?" Jaymee asked "he said he was coming tonight." "Yeah, I may of ruined things for him and Maia a little by accident..." Laura said. "What? How?" Jaymee asked. "I told him infront of Maia how it was sweet that Ratliff taught Ross how to slow dance." She said.

Jaymee looked at Ratliff and smiled "Awe, you taught Ross how to slow dance," Jaymee said "how sweet." Ratliff rolled his eyes "Well you weren't around!" Ratliff said "neither was Laura or Cassie." "Awe, but still it was so sweet!" Jaymee said.

"You don't even know half of it.." Cassie mumbled. Ratliff elbowed Cassie. "Sorry.." She said.

"You know what would of made that even more perfect?" Jaymee asked. "No," Ratliff said "but I have a feeling your gonna tell me." He said taking a sip out of his drink in the cup he was holding. "If you two were dating." Jaymee said smiling.

At that point Ratliff started choking on his drink "You what?" Ratliff asked. "Nothing, I was kidding! Relax," Jaymee said "I know you'd both never like eachother in that way!" "That's what you think.." Cassie said with her hands on her hips. "What?" Laura asked. "Nothing, I said nutin." Cassie said smiling.

Ross then walked through the door "Sorry I'm late," Ross said "my brothers were doing my head in. So that turned into a mini play fight. May of caused Riker to hit his head off the corner of the coffee table and bleed.. Which then my Mom may of made me clean his head to stop the bleeding.. Which then may of mad blood get on my shirt.. Which may of made me have to change cloths.." "Wow.." Cassie said "do you hate your brother or something?" "No," Ross said "we just so happen to have play fights alot. That often turn into real fights.. But oh well. You'd think a 21 year old would beat a 17 year old though."

Everyone just shook their heads.

Then a slow song began to play. It was Never Had A Dream Come True by S-Club 7. The one that Ratliff was teaching Ross with the other day.

Ratliff's eyes widened "R-ross.." Ratliff said. "Yeah?" Ross asked turning to Ratliff. "Slow song.. Maia's over there.." Ratliff said. "Oh yeah.." Ross said.

Ross then walked over to Maia and Ratliff watched. "So, Maia." Ross said. "What do you want Ross?" Maia asked "I told you we're not dating." "I know," Ross said "but neither are me and Ratliff. We're never ever in this whole entire world for as long as I live gonna date."

Maia rolled her eyes. That's the same thing her Uncle said about his boyfriend when he was 17.

Although.. Ross is different. It doesn't seem like he actually will end up with Ratliff.

"Will you dance with me?" Ross asked "cause this is why Ratliff was teaching me how to slow dance." Maia smiled "Awe," She said "sure. I'd love to dance with you." Ross then took her hand and they made their way to the dance floor along with the others who were slow dancing.

"So far so good," Laura said "didn't get rejected." "Give it a moment.." Jaymee said. "What do you mean?" Ratliff asked. "Its Ross Lynch," Jaymee said "he's bound to mess up and do something.." "The faith you have in your bestfriend is just amazing." Ratliff said sarcastically. "Just trust me.." Jaymee said "he'll mess up. I know him too well."

The music then continued to play as Maia and Ross danced together:

Everybody's got something they had to leave behind
One regret from yesterday that just seems to grow with time
There's no use looking back or wondering
How it could be now or might have been
Oh this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go

I've never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be with you

Somewhere in my memory
I've lost all sense of time
and tomorrow can never be cos yesterday is all that fills my mind
There's no use looking back or wondering
How it should be now or might have been
Oh this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go

I've never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be

You'll always be the dream that fills my head
Yes you will, say you will, you know you will
Oh baby, you'll always be the one I know I'll never forget
There's no use looking back or wondering
Because love is a strange and funny thing
No matter how I try and try I just can't say goodbye
No no no no

The last chorus began to play. And Maia fitted her head so it went into Ross's neck as she put her hands round his neck.

Like Ratliff showed Ross before. So Ross wrapped his arms around Maia like he did with Ratliff and they began to slow down the dancing a little and began to sway a little. Ross shut his eyes and began to get lost in thoughts of things. Which you can probably know what..

If not.. Then the next bit shall reveal of what and who he was thinking of.

Maia sighed happily "I'm really enjoying tonight with you, Ross." Maia said. Ross smiled "I'm really enjoying tonight with you too Ratliff." Ross said.
