Gordo POV
I didn't feel like myself. I knew that tomorrow was a free day, and that Lizzie had gotten permission to get trained by Paolo. Something didn't seem right about that guy. He seemed like a phony on a mission to me. But what did I know? I was just plain Gordo.
"I know, it's terrible." I heard Danny from his bed, where he was leafing through some magazine.
"What's terrible?" I asked.
"Oh, come on. I know the deal. Some guy asked Lizzie out, and now you're totally suffering, am I right?"
"Close enough." I said.
"Look, it's no big. She'll get over him and move on to some other guy... maybe even you. She always does." He grinned.
I looked at him strangely. "How do you know that?"
His smile disappeared. "I-I... I read your journal, okay?"
I scoffed. "Well, you could have told me earlier."
"Here's my advice: Do nothing at all. Trust me, it'll work." The smile returned. "When the guy dumps her, she'll some crying to no one but you, like she did with Ronnie. You'll comfort her, and then she'll move on."
"But what if it takes years for her to notice that I'm the guy she likes?"
"Hey, I'm not a genius here. I guess you'll have to wait until the time comes."
"What if it doesn't?"
"It will."
"What if-"
"Enough with the what 'if's, will ya?" He looked annoyed.
"Sorry. It's just that it's so hard to wait." I frowned.
"Whatever."
I sighed. Danny was right.
Lizzie POV
"Okay, so where are we going again?" I said, walking down the streets of Rome with Paolo the next day.
"The dance floor that I always practice on." He said simply as he stopped at a broken-down door. It looked pretty ordinary, but you never know.
I nodded and took a deep breath. "Okay, I'm ready to go in."
Animated Lizzie: One...two... three!
He opened the door and walked down a flight of a stairs.
"Gosh, this place looks a-"
He opened another door.
I gasped so hard I thought I would choke. "-cient." I finished.
It was huge! There were lights and windows and seats... I was like a stage! I hoped no one would be watching me learn. I'd be so embarrassed.
I gazed at Paolo, who was looking around. I smiled to myself. He was in a tank top, so his huge muscles showed. He was so amazing! His eyes were practically glowing.
"Okay, so where shall we start?"
I looked uneasy. "Start from the beginning."
In two hours, I was dancing like a pro...
Except for the endless tripping.
A/N: Sorry, but I'm probably not going to use every line I hear in the trailers, since now there's so many of them! It'll be really hard to mold a story and include thousands of lines. But today, I saw Hilary Duff's 'Why Not' music video! It had a lot of scenes from the original movie, and it helped me a lot.
