The Dance Teacher's Pet

Chapter 3 - His New Pet

Erek's POV

My little pet is being so good now, I see her helping the leader next to me get her thru an underarm turn, that's my good girl I think with a tiny smirk.

"Alright everyone rotate" She slides in front of me again with her cute grin. With the help of my new little pet I speed us thru a swing demonstration and very quickly we've gotten all the way thru underarm turns.

"We teach these dances together because alot of what happens with your upper body is similar it's just your feet we're changing, it's a technique we use in dance called 'interrealtion', all dances are related in some way, that's why we often teach certain dances together."

Melanie's POV

He's so eloquent I think to myself, I love listening to him speak, I watch his lips, I bite the inside of my lip as I wonder how his lips would feel pressed onto mine. There's something about his face, his briefly narrowed eyes, that tiny smirk I caught, like he knows what I'm thinking about.

Erek's POV

I laugh softly in my own mind, it's like I can tell what she's thinking, I know she wants to kiss me, and I can't lie I want to kiss her too. I check the clock, 5 minutes to go and I've managed to get thru everything I wanted to, I feel a proud sigh of relief.

"Alright we've got 5 minutes left everyone, I'm going to play some music," I walk over to the music station, "and we're just going to dance now" I put on a Hustle, for a moment I feel, but then Hals class partner has taken him to the floor and I relax, I get to dance with her, I sigh with relief. I offer her my hand, "shall we?" I give my head a slight upwards nod, grinning, she nods her head up slightly too,

"Mhmm" taking my hand she smiles and I lead her onto the floor.

Melanie's POV

His hands holding mine, it feels so safe, then he grins at me raising his eyebrows as though to ask if I'm ready, I smile and nod my head up, he waits a moment, then counts us in. We begin to circle and it's like I was made to move with him, it's so easy, he's so strong, I breathe in sharply as my hand runs across the back of his waist, before he takes it again, leading me thru a waist roll, he must have seen that I've learned that move, I smile at him, he grins and crinkles his nose again his eyes fixed on mine.

Erek's POV

She's still got so much to learn, I think to myself, leading her firmly, and I can't wait to teach her, but I'm feeling proud already at how well she's doing being so new. I lead her thru another waist roll, smirking to myself, because I can, and I feel her hand run across my back again, a tingle runs up my spine, her touch, I want it. I give myself a turn, and give her a final turn, then I manage to spin her out next to me as though we were going to bow, I smile, that's my good girl,

"Well done everyone," I start to clap and the class joins, "thank your partners and thank you everyone for coming today, don't forget there's a practice party tomorrow, we hope to see you all there"

Melanie's POV

"What's a practice party?" I ask, Erek smiles,

"Well all the students and teachers come and we play music for all the dances and everyone practices with eachother, it's like a big dance party basically, except there's no pressure it's just practice" his smile is so enchanting,

"Sounds like fun" Hal adds, "what time?"

"8:15," Erek answers, "right after group class, so come to group tomorrow too" he adds with a mocking shake of his finger widening his eyes with a wry grin like he's ordering us, then he laughs along with us.

Erek's POV

I'm glad they understand my humor,

"Alright all of you, we'll see you all tomorrow then" I grin at them all and they disperse. Melanie sidels up to me,

"So what is group class tomorrow?"

"Waltz" I grin down at her, "and rumba, I know you've worked on those some"

"Yea well you were watching my lesson," her eyes sparkle at me, "who's teaching?"

"Well I'm the new guy so I've still got the newcomer class, you know so I uh," I stumble slightly, "I can find uh new students who want to work with me," I glance at her and raise my eyebrows,

"I see" she tilts her head, looks me up and down as though appraising me, but she just smiles shyly back at me.

"So uh, are you uhm, gonna be there to help me again tomorrow?" I stumble again as I ask her, she makes me so nervous, but I manage a smile,

"Yea," she gives a small giggle, "I work a few doors down at Brush Your Bowl so it's super easy for me to get here after work, I can just walk over"

"Ah I see, well then," I shake my finger mockly pendantic at her, "I should expect you in class everyday then" I raise my eyebrows seriously, but smirk, she giggles,

"Hey!" I snap, "I mean it" I shake my finger again, but she knows I'm bantering with her because she just giggles again,

"Yes Sir" she smirks back with a mock salute, my balls clench as I imagine her naked saying, 'Yes Sir' to me,

"Good G" I grin at her, f**k I almost said, 'good girl' did she notice, "I'll see you tomorrow then."
