"Sorry about him," Harper said

"Oh, no, it's fine," Griffin said

"My siblings seem to like him," Griffin said as he saw his siblings talking and laughing with Matt

"He's likable," Harper said with a chuckle

Silence.

" So, I was thinking, you must take dance seriously," Griffin said

"How serious are we talking," Harper said raising an eyebrow

"Me or Dance?" Griffin asked broadly

"Dance" Harper said with a smile

Griffin's mouth dropped, holding back a smile

"I was joking," Harper said giggling

"Oh, thank god," Griffin said

Just before Harper winked and walked away

"Oh so that's how it goes, " Griffin said playfully walking to catch up to her

Before Harper could get too far (she didn't get far. Her ankle remember?), Griffin grabbed her hand and gracefully spun her

"God, our you perfect," Griffin said still holding Harper's hand

"Harper smiled

—--------------------------------------

"-Then I broke my arm, scratched my knee, and got a concussion," Griffin said 

"Oh" 

"Did you win the fight though?" Harper asked curiously 

"You know how I do," Griffin said with confidence

"So, you didn't win," Harper said with a smile 

"You know how I do," Griffin mumbled looking down

Harper laughed 

"OK LOVE BIRDS," Matt said as he walked over to them

"Harper, The competition wants us and the team to take a photo with them or whatever"

Harper nodded

"She'll be back," Matt said pulling Harper by her arm

"Wait," Griffin said as Harper and Matt stopped

Griffin kissed Harper's cheek

Griffin smiled, before winking and walking back over to his Family

"Matty?" Harper said in shock as they walked

"Harper?" Matt said

"I think I have a boyfriend," Harper said

"I knew it, my baby's all grown up," Matt said giving Harper a side hug

Harper giggled

5:56 pm

Sulphur Springs Dance Studio had taken photos with some of the Up Stage Dance Competition judges. Harper was told that she would now live in the Up Stage hall of fame, only for people crowned Miss Up Stage. Eventually, the Dance team said their goodbyes to each other and went their separate ways.

"Bye Harper," Kami said

"Bye Mrs. Caba," Harper said with a smile

"Sleepover next Friday?" Matt asked holding up a fist

"Of course," Harper said bumping his fist

"Bye Harps," Matt said as he and his family walked away

Harper waved goodbye, just before walking over to her family and The Campbells

"So... Chick-fil-a?" Ben asked

"Yeah," The twins and Topher said as they walked out the door

" Ok so, Zoey told me she wanted to dance, with Harper," Sarah said as Jess and she walked towards the door

"Oh, that's great," Jess said

"But she also told me she wanted to dance, because of Matt, Who's Matt?" Sarah asked

Jess sighed before chuckling

"Matt is literally the definition of dynamite exploding-" Jess said as she and Sarah walked out the door

Griffin and Harper followed behind

"Can I watch you dance again?" Griffin asked as they walked

"Not until your kids have kids," Harper said sarcastically ambling making sure not to put too much weight on her ankle

"You mean our kids?" Griffin said with a smile

Harper just laughed

Just then, Griffin's phone rang. It was his friend Kai

"Let me get this Harps," Griffin said

Harper nodded and walked out the door

—--------------------------------

Griffin answered the call

Kai: Hey Griff

Griffin: Hey Kai

Kai: Did you go to Harper's competition?

Griffin: Heck yeah

Kai: Did she win?

Griffin: Yup

Kai: How? I thought you told me she fell on the stage

Griffin: Well yeah she did, but you know Harper... She's an elite dancer

Kai: aww, you sound like a supportive boyfriend

Griffin didn't even bother to deny

Griffin: Kay, is that all you wanted?

Kai: Yeah

Kai: Bye Griffin

Griffin: Bye

Call Ended

Griffin put his phone back in his pocket and sighed before walking out the door
