As March rolled into Derry, the band class decided that it would be best to start up the band again in September, when they are back from summer break and can get ready to do another concert at Christmas time. It was mostly because Mr. Hopper was busy with other school-related activities after school. It was fine with her though; She got to spend more time with Henry after school, and it also gave her, Bill, Eddie, Richie and Stan time to hang out. The three of them would keep her and Eddie company as they practiced their dance routine for their dance class final: 'Dirty Dancing'.

Friday March 14, 1997

"Wait!" Richie got to his feet and snorted with laugher, "You think Mr. Spaghetti Arms here is going to be able to pick you up over his head by holding onto only your waist?"

Bill and Stan snickered at the thought.

"Listen, guys! I might have small arms now, but I'll be lean when I'm an adult, so shut up!" Eddie flipped Richie off, "At least I can say I've danced with a girl."

Richie gave the finger back to Eddie, "Well, first off, you're doing this final in about three months, so you won't be an adult by then. Secondly, I have danced with your mom, so I've danced with a woman..."

Winter sarcastically whispered to Bill, "You know, that's kinda possible. Eddie told me his mom makes him dance with her."

Bill laughed into his hand, quietly.

Richie continued in Jabba the Hutt's voice, "You may dance with Jabba the Hutt if you get Jabba the Hutt an extra large pizza from Pizza Hut."

"Richie, please! I don't want to be thinking of my mom while Winter and I are dancing to the Dirty Dancing dance routine! It's weird!"

"Yes, please don't picture me as your mom, Edz. I'll kill you if you think of me as Jabba the Hutt," Winter sighed and sat on the dance room floor and drank her water, waiting for them to stop bickering so her and Eddie could practice.

Bill put a supporting hand on her shoulder and laughed at the bickering.

"So this dance routine must be pretty close to Eddie reaching first base," Eddie laughed, and mocked the dance move when Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey grind while facing each other. "I bet you'll pop a boner in front of your whole class."

Eddie looked from Winter and Richie repeatedly, anxiety growing on his face; "Is that possible? Could that happen?"

Winter stared at him with an intense look that read, 'What the Hell? Really?'.

Bill read the look in her eyes and laughed beside her, "I'm s-so sorry."

"Just wear really baggy pants, Eddie. No one will notice your boner in baggy pants." Richie went back over to his seat to hit down, but then a thought dawned on him and he turned back to Eddie; "Oh, and wear a condom!"

"Why-Why would I need a condom?" Eddie was perplexed.

"If you're front grinding her with a boner, you could get her pregnant. Same with when you're sliding her down your body when you're bringing her down from the lift," Richie nodded as he shared his 'wisdom'. "And then Henry will come find you and kill you for getting his girlfriend pregnant..." He formed his arms as if he had a machine gun in them, and said in his best Arnold Schwarzenegger impression, "'Asta la vista, Spaghetti Man!'" and then he pretended to fire the fake gun.

"Bill, can you just shoot me?" Winter whispered to him as she sighed and threw her head back in frustration.

"Dude, how old are you?" Stan asked Richie.

"I'll be 16 this June, Stan the Man!" Richie announced proudly.

Eddie rolled his eyes, "I'm three months younger than you, and I still understand how Biology works better than you do." He went over to Winter on the floor, "Come on, we've got to practice!" and grabbed onto her hand to pull her up to her feet and brought her to the middle of the dance floor as the others watched.

Stan put on '(I've Had) The Time of My Life' by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack.

Eddie and her had been practicing most of the footwork over the past month after they were told by Mrs. Riley that they needed to practice a dance routine for finals. Dirty Dancing was one of the only routines they both knew from the movie that nobody else in the class choose to perform it. They tried to do the dance exactly in the movie, however Winter put up some boundaries: Eddie wasn't allowed to kiss her nose at the beginning of the dance, he wasn't allowed to slide his hand from the side of her boob to her nipple, and now after the conversation Richie and Eddie just had, he wasn't allowed to have any boners.

As Eddie and Winter did the footwork for the song that they had memorized like how it was in the movie, they awkwardly performed the grinding part. They both also would step on each others feet at some point and start laughing a bit at each other.

"This is a serious song, guys! You can't laugh. Only Winter can laugh at that one part where Swayze pulls Jennifer Grey into him. You need to look serious and like you have a connection..." Stan said as the two of them had totally lost it with laugher, "Remember at the concert? How Bill and Winter would look at each other, and their connection was totally caught by the audience?"

"Y-yeah, you need to s-stop looking at him l-like he's just a f-f-fifteen year old, Winter," Bill said.

That was where Winter knew she needed to improve too.

"Let's practice the catch, Winter!" Eddie said as they both walked to the opposite ends of the room.

Eddie had gotten use to taking the lead and being the one in charge with the dance routines, which Winter liked, because she considered that Jennifer Grey's role in the dance routine in Dirty Dancing was submissive. Swayze was the masculine male dancer that took the lead, which Eddie wasn't very masculine, but it was getting better.

"For fuck sakes, one of them is going to be going to the hospital tonight!" Richie said as he got to his feet. Stan and Bill did too as Eddie motioned for Winter to run to him.

Nervously, Winter began to run slowly to him and hopped into his arms. He tried to lift her up but he only got her a few inches off her feet before they both landed on the floor. Winter landed right on top of him. They both laughed looked at each other and laughed in response.

Stan, Richie and Bill both ran over to them to see if they were okay. "Y-you guys o-okay?" Bill asked them as they laughed on the floor.

"Good thing it was Winter who fell on you other than your mom. You'd be dead if your mom fell on you. We'd need to scrape you off the floor with a shovel," Richie shrugged.

The guys helped Winter and Eddie up off the floor and onto their feet.

"Eddie, you're not going to be able to do this lift. It just is how it is..." Stan said matter-of-factly.

Eddie sighed frustrated, "If I was an adult, it would be no problem!"

"T-The t-t-turtle..." Bill stuttered out loud as he looked from Eddie to Winter, "It c-c-could help you g-guys get a g-g-good mark."

Winter rubbed her elbow that she smacked on the ground; "Doesn't that only work if we end up dancing the song routine in the future? Because it took us to the future when we were playing at the concert. It was like a reunion with us and those four others in the audience. We turned back into teenagers when we stopped playing music... So I think its memories in the future, maybe?"

"Y-yeah, but if w-we all meet up in t-t-the future to p-play some s-s-songs, then wouldn't you g-g-guys eventually do this d-d-dance routine again?"

Eddie and Winter looked at each other and shrugged, "Dirty Dancing is one of my favourite movies, so I guess it's possible that we would goof around during that reunion and dance to it, right?"

Eddie looked at her and thought about it. "Maybe we can get Henry to bring the turtle on Monday, and we put him in the Biology room again and we can try to do the dance on the stage after school."

All five of them looked at each other, wondering if it would be a good idea.

"I don't see why it's not something to try and see," Eddie said to everyone.

Winter looked around at everyone, "I'll ask Henry."

"Come on, guys! If we all do it together, we could get Winter over our heads without a brain injury!" Stan said. The guys all grouped together at one side of the room while Winter walked back to her spot, looking at them nervously as they all waited for the point in the song to go on when she runs over.

'So I tell you something...

This could be love, because...'

Winter ran and hoped up to the guys. Eddie grabbed onto her waist as Bill and Richie grabbed one thigh each and Stan grabbed her arms. They all hoisted her up over their heads as the song continued.

'I've had the time of my life...'

She spread out her arms and flexed her chest and thighs up. They all laughed excitedly that they all did it.

'No, I've never felt like this before... I swear it's the truth...'

Slowly, they all let go of her one at a time to get her back down. Eddie hung onto her for her safety since he had her waist and waited until she slid down his body and was on her feet again before he let go. They smiled at each other and gave each other a high five.

"You see how she just slid down his body like that? That was Eddie going to third base," Richie joked.

Winter glared at him. "Beep beep, Richie."

That Friday evening after Henry and Winter had spent a night reading at Chapters together (although it was more like reading a little bit and spending the rest of the time kissing), they went back to her place where her parents were gone for the weekend.

Henry and Winter had just arrived to her house and went up to her bedroom where they would usually watch television. Henry and her sat at the end of her bed and he held her hand as he pulled out a wrapped gift from his book bag.

"Consider this an early Birthday present," he smiled at her as he handed her the gift.

"Babe!" she smiled ear-to-ear at him. "Why are you giving me this now? My Birthday is on Monday."

Henry laughed at her excitement, "It's just an early gift. You'll get another one on Friday."

She kissed his lips quickly and then said, "You didn't have to get me two gifts."

Winter began unwrapping the gift as Henry watched her adoringly. She pulled out a jewelry box from the package. It was a vintage box that was styled from the 1800's but it was brand new. She opened it up and there was an ice ballerina that danced. Inside the box, Henry had put a Reeses Pieces Peanut Butter Cup and two tickets to see Batman and Robin scheduled for the following night, which is a movie they both wanted to see.

"Baby..." Winter said warmheartedly, "I love all of it." She looked over at his smiling face and kissed his warm lips. She put the jewelry box down on the floor beside her and moved up closer to him to kiss him more.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and they both laid down on the bed together as they continued to kiss. She parted his lips with her tongue and gently put it in his mouth, massaging his tongue with her own. As he played with his tongue back, he put one hand on one of her breasts and squeezed it gently. It had been the first time he had squeezed her breast. As Henry moves slowly into going into new phases of the relationship, she decided that tonight was going to be the night that they were going to have sex.

She let go of him and got back up to her feet. Quickly, she took off her pants, shirt and bra, and stood in front of him naked with only her blue undies still on. She looked at his surprised, aroused and nervous face.

"Wow..." was the only thing he could say as he got up and stared from her perky breasts to her eyes.

She watched him quietly as he stared and didn't seem to know what to do.

"Touch me, Henry..." she almost pleaded as she could feel her vagina getting wet just from thinking about what was going to happen next.

He took a step closer to her and felt her breasts. "They're so soft," he said as he looked from her eyes to her bare body. His hands slowly slid form her breasts, down her torso, to her vagina and slid off her panties. He feathered his fingertips around the lips of her vagina, and then he stopped and gently looked for her clit with his fingers. "Oh my God, you're getting so wet."

A little moan escaped her lips as he circled her tiny clip with his fingers. She responded by taking his shirt off and kissing onto his lips as if she was hungry for him. She slid her hands down his stomach to his jeans and unzipped them. He pulled his pants and boxers off as she helped.

He backed her over to the bed where she laid down and he laid on top of her as they kissed and massaged each others tongues with their own. His cock was hard as he slid it up and down her pussy's wet lips, her juices pouring out every time he slid the tip of his cock on her clit.

He made a little moan sound as she put her hand on his wood to guide him into her pussy. She stuck the tip of him where her hole was. "Push in, Henry..." she told him as she stared into his piercing eyes, almost as if she was pleading him to put it in because she was so turned on.

With some force as she was a virgin, he pushed himself all the way in. His facial expression lit up as he felt all of her pussy on his cock. Starting off slow, he thrusted his cock in and out and kissed her lips as they both made little moans in between their parted lips.

"Can I go faster?" he whispered to her, unsure if he can go any faster since it was the first time she ever had sex. It was his first time as well.

She nodded, "Yeah, it doesn't hurt." She grabbed onto his back and pushed his body into hers even more.

As he thrusted his cock in and out of her, she followed his rhythm with her hips. "You're squirting all over my cock," he said with his mouth on her cheek. Their lips found each other and they kissed and massaged each others tongues with more force. She could feel herself dripping wet, her juices going all over the bed and dripping down her pussy to her butt.

She whispered into his ear as he moaned and began pounding her pussy faster and harder, "I'm on the pill, Henry. You can cum inside of me."

Her words made him even more turned on and he thrusted as hard as he could in and out of her until she was gripping onto his back and moaning out loud and squirting.

He began groaning and for a few seconds, he was going faster than before. With one final loud groan, he pushed himself inside her as deep as he could go and came. Both of them breathing heavily and sweating a little bit, he looked at her face with a sparkle in his eye and the most intense look he had ever given her. He kissed her lips and stroked her cheek, still unable to get off from on top of her as his heart was racing and he felt weak.

"I love you so much. Oh my God, I can't believe how amazing that felt," he said in between kisses.

"Henry, you were so good. My legs are quivering..." she smiled at him and kissed his lips again.

He looked into her eyes very seriously and said, "I don't ever want to do that with anyone else other than you in my life... Please don't ever leave me, Winter..." His nose touched hers and he slid his nose from one side to the other passionately as he looked into her eyes.

The love she felt for him made her feel sick to her stomach. "I'm not going to leave you. You're my soulmate."

He kissed her jawline softly, "Until the day I leave this earth, I want you all to myself."

Henry spent the night. He told his folks that he was sleeping at a friends house when he really spent the night in bed with Winter in her double sized bed. The rest of the night, they stared in each other's eyes and thought about their future together. It was nothing other than perfect. She was so happy her family made her move back to Derry where she could find the perfect man and the perfect friends.
