Dance with me.

At the Gym.

The alarm clock on my phone start beeping, I try to make it stop. I open my eyes and realize that I had slept at the chair of my desk. I think fell asleep while I was still sketching. I took a look to my sketches. The last one is unfinished and different from the others. I got up, stretched my back and walking to the bathroom for a shower. I finished, I wear fresh black pants and dark green shirt from the closet and my confortable Vans shoes. I dry and fix my hair. I grab my phone, my bag and walked downstairs to the kitchen. My mom and my brother are having breakfast. “Good morning, sweetie.” My mom says and I kissed her on the cheek, messed up my brother’s hair and Ι join them. As we finished, I took Nick’s bag and walked to my car with him. His school is next to mine.

After ten minutes I had stop to the parking lot of school. I walked with him to his school and I went back to mine. I find Jace waiting for me at the entrance. “Morning, i***t” He says and hit me on the back of my head. “Yeah good morning to you. Asshole!” We start walking to the English class. We take our seats on the middle desk. “Don’t choke again asshole” he says and I look at him. He nods me to turn at the door. There she is, with her straight, long, red hair up as a pony tail, her skinny jeans, a black t-shirt and her confortable Vans shoes. She smiled to us and she is looking for a free seat. As Professor Harris come to the class, “Good morning, we have a new student. Miss Rosario Solano. Please be polite, and turn to the page forty-two!” He said to us and we open our books.

Someone passes through a paper note to her. And she chuckles. I have to pull myself together. “Miss White, Miss White, is you with us?” The Professor yelling at me and Jace kick me on my feet. And get my attention, “Yes I am here.” I respond and smiled awkward. “Now that we have and Miss White attention, let’s continue.” He says and starts reading a piece -Romeo and Juliet-.

″But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?

It is the east and Juliet is the sun!

Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,

Who is already sick and pale with grief?

That thou her maid art far more fair than she.‶ …

 I try to look at her. She is looking at the book and tries to keep up with Professor Harris. I chuckled … ″The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,

As daylight doth a lamp. Her eyes in heaven

Would through the airy region stream so bright

Those birds would sing and think it were not night.‶ … The bell rings, “Please finish that and bring me a paper about that poem. It will be for the last grades. You are dismissed!” Professor Harris says and we start leaving the class. “Come on asshole, move.” I feel Jace’s hand on my shoulder. “Yes, I am coming.” I respond to him and take eyes off of her. She is talking and laughing with Alex. The football captain, well he is handsome and a player. I just left. The next classes passed quite fast, and the bell for lunch is ringing.

As we walk to the cafeteria we talking. “I will kick your trained ass to the ground today.” Jace said and I was laughing at him. “We will see whose ass will be on the ground. Just don’t cry, when I’ll finish with you” I respond and laughed. Then Sandy comes behind me and grabbed my hand to walk with us. “Hello handsome. How are you today?” she says to me. “Leave me alone Sandy.” I said and I take my hand of her. Why she is doing this. She knows that nothing is going to happen. “Ok Fine!” She says and walked away. “Dude, what is wrong with her? Jace asks and I looked at him. “Since Friday night when she brought the new girl, she has changed. What happened with you two?” He asks again. “Nothing, I just turned her down, she is your sister’s friend man, I can’t do that!” I said to him and we are entering to the cafeteria. We split up. He went to the table of the football team. I take my lunch and I went to the table in the corner with the female Kickboxing team.

As I start eating some girls come to my table and talking to me. “May I sit with you?” that voice, It’s her! The other girls roll their eyes and ignore her. “Yes, please have a seat.” I told her. She smiles at me. I can’t stop looking at her. The other girls left us alone since I ignored them. “So you are a player?” She asks me. I am not sure what she meant. “What do you mean?” I ask her and I can see the awkward question look at her eyes.

“You know a player here at school. You play with everyone and break their hearts.” She answers and gets me upset with that. I didn’t do that to anyone. “No Rouz, I am not! Who told you that? You don’t even know me how you can ask me such a thing?” I yelled at her. I stand up and turn to leave. She grabbed my wrist and look at me in the eyes. She locks her eyes on mine, those beautiful green-grey eyes. I think I fall in. I just stare at her with anger. I didn’t want to but she made me. “Sandy told me that yesterday, when she came to my house. She told me that you play with everyone and then you just dump them as a game.” She explained. I couldn’t listen much. I was mad at her. She doesn’t even know me. How could she? “Well, no I am not a player, but yes I turned her down. I couldn’t do something with Alice’s friend. And she started that rumor for me. Now let my hand!” I told her, and pulled my hand of her.

The bell ringing again. I’m leaving in anger and wishing not sees Sandy’s face again. She made get mad at Rouz. I walked to the final class for today. Thank God I have gym now! I will let out my anger there. I went to the lockers I change my clothes. I wear my Nike top, my track pants and get to the class.

*Rouz’s POV

I walked out of the cafeteria to the next class, fortunately is gym. I try to find my locker. I change to my gymnastic suit and top. Can’t stop thinking, what I have done. How can I be so stupid? And I said something like that to her. The way she looked at me with anger, make me feel mad with myself. I have to speak with her, to explain myself. I am so stupid. One week here and I make my first enemy? Well done Rouz. She is different. She is very attractive and it’s normal the girls liked her. My thoughts ran faster than me. I walked to the gym.

“Wow” I manage to say. She is looking good, she has six packs? What kind of training she is doing. As I was getting closer to her I notice a dog-rose tattoo on her upper right arm. And a big phoenix tattoo on her back continued to her lower back and into her track pants. Her tanned skin looks perfect. I stand near to her. She’s talking with Jace. She is looking at me with anger.

“Today we will make a trust game in pairs. I will tell your partners name and you will find them. Anna with Mia. George and Michael. Finn finds Alex. Zoe and Hope. Luke goes with Jace, Rouz with Andrea, and final Amelia with Christine. Now find you’re partners.” The gym trainer says. She splits Jace and Andrea. And she putted me with her. I don’t like that, neither they. I walked closer as she looked at me. I can say that she doesn’t like that, but she has to. “Now you have to trust your partners because they have to catch you, as you fall back to them. When I tell you, you will switch rolls. Start now!” she told us. We are taking our places. “Hey” I said to her and she growls at me. “Don’t worry I will catch you!” She told me. I took a step in front of her and let my body fell back. I can catch the other’s laugh while they fall down. She catches me every time. And push me gently back. Why she didn’t let me fall after what I said to her. Maybe she doesn’t want to mess around to the class.

The whistle starts echoing in my ears. I feel my body falling. I heard a shallow voice and I turn my heads up. I’m on top of her, she is on the ground. I’m trying to get off. “I am so sorry Andrea I didn’t want to, are you ok? Let me help you.” I said and gave her my hand to pull her up. I think I saw a smile at her face. Jace is laughing at her. “She puts you down so easy, Asshole.” He said and keeps laughing at her. She stood up and looks angry at me. “I will kick your ass later, douche.” She glares at him. I don’t know what she meant. But it looks serious. “Switch” the trainer says. She looked at me for a sec. “Can I trust you?” She asks me with anger. She took one step forward and let her body to me. I catch her every single time and I push her back gently as she did with me. The bell is ringing and I kept her one more time. “Thanks for not let me fall.” She told me and she start walking to Jace. “Are you ready, to kick your ass?” She says to Jace and get to the ring with him. Some girls gather around the ring, and yelled Andrea’s name.

I thought they will be joking as friends. I walked to the lockers to change. After a while I notice that they didn’t come yet to change neither the girls from before. I walked back to the gym. I saw her on top of him and pushed him down. He made a noise, through her back and got up on his feet. She got up on her 6 ft. form. She walked around the ring and made him attack her. She blocked his fists and kicks. She grabbed him from his neck, then she hit him very fast with her knee at his stomach, he fell down and she gets again on top of him. “So, you had enough?” she asks him and he gave up. She is pretty good up there. She gave her hand and pulled him back to his feet.

They get down and start walking towards to the lockers and laughing to each other. Two girls still following her and they try to talk to her. But she doesn’t even turn to look at them. When she saw me she stopped and her laugh wiped away. She is looking very good, she is almost sweaty and her tan, six packs looks very hot on her. She looks very sexy when she fighting, that’s why the girls liked her... “See you to the parking lot loser.” She yells to Jace and he laughed. “Don’t be late asshole. You have to get Nick from school.” He yells back to her as he walking out.

“Andrea I’m sorry for what I said before. I wanted to know if it was true. I never meant to make you upset. Earlier I lost my body control when the whistle sounds.” I said and exhaling a deep breathe that I didn’t know that I was holding. She looked me with her deep green eyes, I like that look. “I deserved it! I guess because I yelled at you. Let me made up for you. I will show you I am not what Sandy said.” She told me. “Would you like to go for a walk with me later?” she continues. She just asks me out. “Ok, I would like that.” I gave her my phone to type her number. “See you later.” She says and ran to the lockers.
