"Hey Jimmy, you doing anything May twenty-fifth?" asked Tony during a break from their schoolwork one Saturday.
"Tony, that's like three months away."
"I know that."
"What's so important about May twenty-fifth anyway?"
"It's National Tap Dance Day."
"Tony, do you even know how to tap?" asked Jimmy turning to give Tony his full attention.
"No, but I know how to clog dance, can't be that different."
"Where in the world did you learn how to clog dance?" asked Jimmy looking at his friend in complete surprise, just when he thought that Tony couldn't surprise him anymore he would turn around and do just that.
"Camp Pokequatic, I spent five summers there, also picked up some pretty mean knife throwing skills."
"Why did you take up clogging?"
"Well, I wasn't going to be there was this girl, Linda Hayworth, and she liked to dance…" Tony replied absent-mindedly smiling as he remembered Linda with her long hair and really great legs.
"Say no more," Jimmy, said with a slightly amused smile, he really should have expected that the reason that Tony had signed up for clog dancing lessons at all was because of a girl.
"So what do you say?"
"What do I say to what?" asked Jimmy having lost the thread of the original conversation.
"Want to come with me to a tap dance party on National Tap Dance Day?"
"Uh, sure, Tony."
"Cool," Tony said with a smile.
"It's just that you're forgetting one thing, Tony."
"What's that?"
"You don't know how to tap dance."
"I can take lessons, like you said I have three months. Do you know how to tap dance?"
"Sort of."
"Really?"
"My mom put me in classes when I was a kid and ever since then I've done it on and off."
"So do you know of any good tap teachers?"
"I could ask around," Jimmy replied as the two of them returned to their books and notebooks.
