b author note /b - okay. SO i know it seems like I have died, but I havent. I just started a much harder school with way more homework. I checked my email and saw something with fanfiction, and remembered this story. Im way happy to say that I am going to get it back on its feet! Thanks for all your spectacular comments. You guys rock!
I am hoping to pick the story up again, but this is a pretty boring chapter after that long break, so sorry! and I still remember my old ideas, so it will pick up from there. Another old character is going to be introduced in my next planned chapter.. so...heads up!

Kelsi ran up the stairs furiously. Eager to step inside and unlock the door, so grabbed her key. Ryan following behind, panting. Kelsi sat at the piano. Ryan jumped atop the grand piano. Kelsi pushed the keys.
"Sing to me.", Kelsi breathed.
Ryan smiled. Kelsi started the track in a slow...steady rythm. Ryan picked it up easily.
i Itsss hard to belive. that I couldnt seeee. You were always there beside me. Thought I was aloooooone. With no one to... /i
Ryan looked over at Kelsi. Closing her eyes and smiling. She was singing along slowy...but not making any sound. Ryan urged her to sing. Kelsi smiled, opened her eyes, and refused slowly. Kelsi and Ryan stood in silence for a moment. When suddenly, Kelsi said i Hey Ryan...? /i . Ryan pushed out a quick "Hmm?" and Kelsi went on.
i Do you remember the Bop to The Top dance? /i
Ryan shook his head. "Kelsi, its been awhile." Kelsi put on a look of dissapointment. Would it help if I put on the track?
Well...
Kelsi put on the track. She carefully started lip syncing the chord changes. Ryan started shifting his feet. One after the other, as Kelsi got up. Ryan was in a dancing heaven. He moved those steps just as he did 8 years ago. His feet moved with grace and precision, and his breathing steady, like a real dancer. Kelsi stood beside him as the track finished.
i "Lets Sing" /i
Ryan stood. He gave a "lets do it" nod and proceeded in his beginning position. He belted out the first "mucho gusto" as Kelsi started to roll her R's. They both knew the exact dance moves...there was something about the song that just flooded the two of them with memories, and the need to just get up and move. As the song finished, the two landed on the couch, laughing. As the seriousness grew back, they sat up.
"So..." said Kelsi. "Tell me about life."
Ryans face became flat. He began with "I just recently was fired from my job as a teacher at the dance institution I worked at..." Kelsi's face suddenly fell flat..and Ryan began explaining everything.
