Dance your heart out

Chapter 13: Dance again

{EMILY's POV}

Before I could go to the dressing room, I had to go back to my seat because I left my purse on my chair. I forgot I left it behind me when the producers came to me. I walked over to my seat and Terence was already looking at me..

"Hey, What happened?" he asked
"Well, apparently there was a gap between the announcement so they needed someone to perform. They picked Tristan's dance with me.. So yeah I'm dancing tonight" I said
"You are?? Oh great" said Patricia. "That was my favourite dance of Tristan" she added
"I hope I can remember it all" I said
"You will! You have the lucky leprechaun dancing with you" she said
"Good one. I better go now" I said
"Alright Good luck dear" she said
"Good Luck Emily" he said
"Thank you!" I said then left

I went back stage to the dressing room where my dress was ready for me to wear. I changed into the dress I wore on the last show and they made me sit on a make up chair. They fixed my hair but they didn't do much on my make up because I was already wearing some. I got up and waited upstairs with the other pros and troupe dancers. Tristan was waiting as well. Some troupe members talked to me like Emma and Sharna. They both wished me Good luck. Then Henry looked at me and smile then he walked over to me, he also wished me good luck and hugged me. Derek and Tristan both saw what he did. They were both talking to each other. I walked over to their direction. Both of them raised an eyebrow on me.

"What did I do?" I asked
"Nice hug back there" said Derek
"Why? am I forbidden to hug Henry now?" i asked, a little pissed
"No no you are not. I was just a little jealous okay?" he said. I hugged him tight then he smiled.
"Can I at least get a hug too?" asked Tristan. I hugged him
"Alright that is enough hugging" said Derek with a slight chuckle pulling me away from Tristan.
"Alright! Let's do this Em" said Tristan

We went down and Tristan led me to the stage where I do my solo before we dance. We did our dance and the crowd went wild. It was awesome dancing again. At the end Tristan kissed me on my cheeks and we both waved at the audience. I went back stage to change again and went back to my seat.

"Good Job! You were amazing!" said Patricia
"Thank you" I said then smiled
"Wow. That dance was awesome" said Terence. "are you a professional dancer?" he added
"No! I just took lessons when I was young and I grew up seeing Mark, Derek and Julianne Dance" I said
"Really? seems like you've been doing that since you were young" he said and I smiled.

We are back from the commercial break. It was time to crown season 14 champion of dancing with the stars.....and the winner is...... Donald Driver and Peta Murgatroyd... The crowd cheered for them and so was I. Such an awesome season of Dancing with the Stars. The producers yelled cut, it means the show was done. I saw Derek coming towards me.

"Looks like your ride is here" said Terence. I laughed a little..
"Alright. Nice meeting you again" I said
"You too. Take care" he said.
"Let's go Em" said Derek
"Alright.. Oh wait" I said.. "Nice meeting you, Mrs. Matthews" I added
"You too dear" she said with a smile

As we were walking towards Derek's trailer..

"Mrs. Matthew?" he said
"Well, you told me not to talk to the guy right?" I said
"yeah.. did you?"
"Yeah... A little.."
"What???" he said with a shocked face
"Relax! It's your fault! You looked at him for no reason so he talked to me then I apologized."
"Let me guess, Mrs. Matthews is his mother?" he said and I nodded
"Wow, now you know his mom? What's next? his whole family?" he added
"Wow Derek, I might never see him again you know. Maybe he lives far away from here" I said
"Good!"
"His mom is one of your fans by the way" I said. He smiled and we entered his trailer

"Do you want me to leave first if you are going to change?" I said
"No its fine. I just have to change my shirt that's all. Besides, it's good that you are here so no one can talk to you outside and maybe get your number or something" he said. I sat down on the couch and pulled out my phone so I don't have to stare at something awkwardly while he is changing. He took his shirt off and looked for his other shirt. I didn't notice that I looked up and saw his gorgeous... hella fine body.. I've seen him dance without a shirt before but not this close.
He saw me looking and said "Like what you see? You know this could be all yours" with his smirk
"Shut up and besides if I ever love someone, I will love him not because of his body. I think I'll just go" I said. I stood up but he stood right in front of me. Our bodies were so close. He placed his hands on my waist. I can't deny, Derek is pretty good looking and I can't stop staring at him. He leaned over for a kiss, and before I knew it, our lips were locked together. It was a long and passionate kiss. I can feel his tongue seeking entrance and I let him in. It was amazing. I have to admit it was a good kiss. Derek is my first kiss, I know! 20 years and Derek is my first. The kiss ended and our forehead are together.

"Does this mean? like are we?" he asked
I smiled
"Do you want me to be your uhmm..." I said
"Girlfriend??! YES!!" he said
"Okay then! I will be your girlfriend" I said
His eyes filled with joy and he hugged me tight and lifted me. after a long hug, he placed me down and kissed me again. He pulled away for a while to say.. "I love you Emily" .. I answered "I love you too Derek"
