I can teach you. || Calum Hood

Is this a dream?

Calum’s POV:

Dance lessons sucks. I still can’t figure out these stupid moves for the tango and the rest of the boys are perfecting theirs and I still suck.

“You know guys, Aria is pretty hot, with all that dancing and stuff you’d think she’d be flexible, if you know what I mean, but she’s so—“ “ Stiff and uptight.”, I interrupt Michael. “Yeah, I mean like, if she lets her hair loose and stuff, she could kinda be fun”, Michael continues. “Remember guys, we have to keep everything professional. She’s really working her ass off to help us with this video”, Ashton says. “Yeah, she really is working her ass off, I mean like did you guys see her ass?! She’s so fit, damn”, Luke exclaims. We all stare at Luke with straight faces. He can be such an idiot sometimes. He’s right though, Aria is freakin’ fit and she’s like, what? 17? Damn.

We walk our way through the parking lot to the studio. This is something we definitely couldn’t do for a while without being pestered by the papps. They’re so annoying and never give us actual privacy!

We all walked in and Aria was lying on the couch sleeping. Wow, she’s actually pretty. Her hair is down, she’s not wearing makeup, I think and she’s not in her dancing clothes. She looks so peaceful. It would seem like a sin to wake her up.

Aria’s POV:

I wake up and I see 5sos in front of me. I then whisper to myself “Is this a dream?” and then Luke replies by saying, “No, we actually have dance rehearsals today.” I swear, the ground can swallow me right now. I completely forgot about their lesson today and on top of that, I asked myself is this a dream. Shit maaaannnnn! They all start laughing and I just flashed an awkward smile and got up from the couch. I’ll get these little shits back, I think to myself.

We practice for at least 2 hours straight. They were exhausted and I told them that, “That’s it for today.”  Okay, so all the guys are doing pretty well, better than I expected actually, except for Calum. He gets really frustrated and can sometimes appear really inappropriate when it comes to eye contact. I don’t know if he’s doing this to show off in front of the boys or something, but I don’t like it.

Calum’s POV:

“Okay, Cal. You can do this.” I say to myself. I swear, if the boys found out that I find her intimidating, they’ll be making fun of me and I’ll never hear the end of it. Okay, I find Aria intimidating, it makes sense that I do. Obviously, I do. She’s a literal pro at dancing and I kinda suck. I get the courage to talk to her and here goes…

“Aria, urrhh… I wanted to ask if I can get extra dance lessons, but without the boys knowing. You and I both know that I suck!”

She looks at me with a straight face. Oh, shit. I hope she doesn’t think I’m making a joke out of this.

“Why should I? You clearly don’t take these classes seriously.” she says with an almost harsh tone. Why do I always put myself in these awkward situations? “No, I really want to try and get it right!” I said. She stares at me for a while and then she says, “Okay. I’ll give you extra lesson only if you stop showing off in front of the boys, okay?” Say what? She knew I was. “Yeah, fine by me, just, please don’t tell them though.”
