For Disclaimer see Chapter One. The song "Looking Down" belongs to Audiovent! I just think the song rocks.
Author's Note: I got the idea for the suckie DJ from the experience I had at HC. The DJ played really bad music and ignored all of our requests. So, in this story, they'll have the best DJ. J And the dirty dancing thing also had happened at my HC…let's just say some of the things I saw surprised the hell outta me. Then it made me laugh as I watched the kids get kicked out…
Chapter Six:
The Dance
7:00 p.m.
Jarod and Miss Parker walked arm in arm as they walked through the hall to the gym. They entered the gym to find it somewhat filled with people. The rest of their group was standing by the DJ booth. The couple walked over to them. Emily smiled at Parker.
"I like your necklace." She said.
"Thank you. Jarod gave it to me."
Emily smiled then frowned.
"What's wrong?" asked Jarod.
"We have a very suckie DJ." Answered his sister.
Within a few minutes, the group pooled their money and paid the DJ to leave. When he did, Broots took the place of DJ and put on "Looking Down" by Audiovent. The group moved away from the speakers and started dancing.
Yeah
My shadow stretches far and free
Yeah
It's telling me what I could be
Could be
Cause I'm tired
Of looking up
All the time
We'll stand on top of the world
Looking down
We'll stand on top of the world
Looking down
Yeah
We'll set ourselves apart in time
Yeah
And then we'll leave it all behind
I'll rise
Cause I'm tired
Of looking out
For the line
We'll stand on top of the world
Looking down
We'll stand on top of the world
Looking down
We'll stand on top of the world
Yeah
Is anybody here like me?
Yeah
Can you face the sound
And decide?
We'll stand on top of the world
Looking down
We'll stand on top of the world
Looking down
We'll stand on top of the world
Looking down
To rise above on our own
Looking down
When the song ended and another rock song began to start, Miss Parker surprised the hell out of Jarod by the way she danced, which was dirty dancing. She grinned at him and moved closer, then grab his hands and pull him to her.
7:45 p.m.
Jarod, Kyle, Angelo, and Steve had gone off to talk to some friends leaving Emily and Parker to dance. The girl's didn't mind. Michaelina suddenly felt someone close to her. She turned to see Lyle and his weird friends, (yes, Lyle has friends hard to believe, huh?) right by her.
The girl stopped dancing. "What the hell do you want?" Parker demanded.
"I just wanted to let you know that the way you dance is making you like a slut." Her brother told her.
"You came over here just to tell me that I look like a slut? Aren't you mature? And oh, where's your date? Oh yeah, you don't have one!" she smirked as he brother frowned and walked away with his friends.
Emily raised an eyebrow at Michaelina, who rolled her eyes.
"Let's go find the boys." Parker said.
They walked through the now crowed gym and waved to Sydney, one of the school's councilors and was the nicest guy, as they passed him. Everyone liked him. He smiled and nodded to them. The girl's found their guys and joined them. Jarod smiled and Parker slide her arm through his. Parker watched as her father approached Broots.
The teen turned down the music and her father grabbed a microphone and began talking.
"It's time to announce Homecoming King and Queen." He said, "Quiet down!"
A hush fell over the crowded gymnasium and the seniors of the Homecoming Court made their way to the DJ booth. Mr. Parker took out an envelope out of his pocket and opened it.
"And the winners are…Angelo Churill and Chloe Churchill."
The crowd cheered loudly. The two runner-ups, hugged to two winners, laughing happily as they watched them get crowned. A slow song started up and Angelo and Chloe began to dance. Michaelina looked up at Jarod, who smiled at her. They moved together and started to dance as well. They continued to slow dance as the song changed to Always by Saliva.
Jarod placed a kiss on the top of her head and smiled. They hadn't won, but who cared? They were having the best time of their lives.
Heh, Heh, Heh. I bet you hate me for that one! (The winners of the dance…and if you don't…cool!)
