Luau!
The stage area was positioned in front of rows of seats for the crowd. It was awfully crowded with tourists, anticipating to see the show ahead of them. Ray rubbed his hands together eagerly with a smile, "Alright! Massive babes just right ahead!" Ray grinned.
He and Peter looked at each other, giving each other a high five. "You two are pathetic!" Bobby sniped.
Ray shrugged, "Hey, there's about to be a show of a luau. Hula, man! Do you know how hot those hula dancers are?" Ray asked him.
"Will you shut up, Ray?" Elizabeth hissed from in front of them.
Soon, the lights died away in the stadium, leaving only the torches lit on the stage. Aiona leaned into Sam, as he sat next to her, "Just watch. The openings of these shows are amazing!" She smiled.
Sam blushed, as he felt her hand rest onto his knee. He hesitantly attempted to put his arm around her shoulder, but kept pulling away out of nervousness. Rogue smiled, leaning forward, as she grabbed onto his arm, and threw it over Aiona's shoulder for him. He turned his head, glaring at her. She only shrugged with a smile. Aiona then rested her head onto his shoulder.
Logan leaned into Rogue, "That his new girlfriend now, or something?" He asked.
Rogue let out a giggle, "Sorta."
Soon, the show started; with a man letting out a cheerful yell, followed by the rhythmic beating of drums. Soon, on the left side of the stage, a line of female Tahitian hula dancers danced their way towards the front of the stage, moving in one fluid movement. On the right side of the stage, the male Tahitian dancers danced their way towards the center of the stage, behind the women, holding wooden staffs in their hands. "Yeah!" Ray yelled out.
Amara frowned, throwing her hand to the back of his head. "Ow!" He gasped.
"Shut up and show some respect!" Amara hissed.
Peter smiled, as he tilted his head, almost entranced by the hips of the hula dancers. Their movements shifted, from side to side, circling around, looking like a fluid movement of water.
Sam leaned towards Aiona, "Can you do that?" He asked.
Aiona lifted up her head, and looked up at him, curiously. He immediately blushed, realizing what he had asked, and how she could have possibly perceived the question. "Sorry." He smiled sheepishly.
Aiona let out a laugh, "No, that's okay! That's probably the most common question that's asked when people find out what nationality I am!" She smiled.
Sam looked at her, and she nodded to answer his question, "It's not that hard." She smiled.
"Oh." He grinned.
*~*~*~*
After a few more dances of the show, select dancers went into the crowd, pulling guests up towards the stage with them, to dance. Two female hula dancers made their way towards the mutants in the crowd; one grabbed onto Peter's arm, and the other grabbed onto Ray's. The two bachelor boys excitedly stood up, looking back at their friends, as they followed the dancers towards the stage. A male dancer made his way towards Rogue. She gasped, her mouth dropping, "Oh, oh no!" She declined.
Elizabeth shoved her best friend, causing her to nearly fall onto the dancer. "Go!" She shrieked at Rogue.
"I'm gonna kill you after this is over!" She grumbled.
Rogue then looked at the dancer, and hesitantly followed him, as he danced towards the stage, guiding her by her arm. The guests were cheered on by the crowd, as they danced on stage with the hula dancers. Wanda nearly fell onto Elizabeth laughing, as they laughed at the boys; Peter had been grinding his hips with the hula dancer that had chosen him. Ray decided to take the comedy route, and throw his fists up to the sides of his head, jerking his hips forward, as the hula dancer danced around him.
Rogue gulped, as she nervously bopped up and down, with the male Tahitian dancing around her. "Come on Rogue!" Elizabeth and Wanda shrieked.
"Let yourself go!" Kitty and Tabitha yelled out.
Ah, the hell with it, Rogue thought to herself. She then began mimicking the hip movements of the women dancers, rather well. Her eyes moved towards the crowd, to glance at Logan; his eyebrow was raised, his eyes dazedly gazing at her. She then looked at her friends with a smirk, and they eagerly gave her a thumbs up.
The dance was over, and the dancers thanked the guests they had brought up, "Hey, lemme get your phone number!" Ray spoke up to the girl that danced with him.
He yelped, as Rogue immediately grabbed onto his collar pulling him away. As he was being dragged away, he yelled back towards the dancer, "Look up the Xavier Institute for the Gifted! In Bayville New York! My name's Ray!" He yelled out. He then held his thumb and pinky towards the side of his head, mouthing, "Call me!"
The dancer smiled at his attempt of compliments. "You're friends are a fun bunch!" Aiona laughed.
Sam let out a nervous laugh, "Yeah, they're pretty weird." He grinned.
*~*~*~*
The hotel room was crowded; everyone had piled into Brian and Tabitha's room, talking and mingling with each other. Wanda glared at Crystal from across the room, seeing her cuddled up with her twin, Pietro. "You alright?" Tabitha asked Wanda.
Wanda drank out of her soda, "I just can't believe he had the nerve to invite her. And she had the nerve to show up!" Wanda snapped.
Tabitha shook her head, smiling, "Don't worry 'bout it. Betts' isn't trippin'." Tabitha smiled.
"No, that's not the point! Crystal should have used her damn head!" Wanda snapped.
Tabitha shifted her weight, looking up at the gothic mutant, "Why? I mean, Betts hasn't really spoken to her since she came. And, just because Betts got into a fight with her, doesn't mean you should pick up where she left off."
Wanda threw her hand down, "No, that's it. I'm gonna go tell her she better haul her butt on a plane like, tonight! Betsy didn't invite her!"
Wanda made her way towards Crystal and Pietro. Wanda's fists clenched at her sides, as she attempted to keep her temper cool. "Excuse me, Crystal! You and I need to have a talk!" She hissed.
