Austin's POV
I groan and I go to pick Vince up then I drive to hip hop class come four PM. Vince is my overall best friend. We dance together, often being put together for a duo because we have 'chemistry.' I say "hi" when he gets in the car. He says "hi" smiling and I drive to class. We go into the building and check in with the front desk. I say "will we be able to get a room today after class?" The receptionist says "yes, room seven is open. How long?" I say "two hours."She smiles saying "you're all set." I nod and we go to room two for class. I see all these guys and I say "you would not believe what happened to me today." I tell Vince literally everything, but not till class. He says "what's up?" I say "I hung out with Veronica and she would not get off my ass. She wouldn't stop calling me hot then she said her brothers birthday is coming up. Which means, he'll be home. Then I drive home after I drop her off and I see a text from Shawn."
Vince says "damn. But what about the guy on her Instagram post of you?" I say "she thinks it was for her, I'm gonna let her have it. He's probably weird anyway." Vince says "what did Shawn have to say?" I say "he said he missed me and shit, when he just wants to get laid while he's in town. I told him to text me when he's actually here then I'll give him an actual answer of if I want him to come over or not."
Vince says "you should just text the guy" as we stretch. I say "she has zero taste in men, why would I talk to one she decided to DM?" Vince says "hey, you never know." I say "I'm just tired and don't want to talk about it anymore, I haven't gotten all my thoughts together about all of it." Vince says "that's fine" shrugging and we get up when our teacher, Jacklyn, says "let's go, boys." All six of us get on the floor and Jacklyn plays a song and says "let's get going, guys." We do a warm up and she says "ok, let's get into our choreography for the showcase. We have three months left. You know all the choreography, so let's get perfecting your freestyles and all that junk."
I cross my arms and when I hear Jack Harlows voice I start rocking back and forth. I get my shakes out cause I'm so hype for this choreography. I keep shifting then we go into it. We get through the first forty five seconds then a couple guys stop. Jacklyn stops the song and says "what?" One says "I forgot." The other says "yuh, me too." Jacklyn says "if you practiced and didn't make your girlfriends your first priority then maybe you'd remember. Dance would be my priority if I was paying a couple thousand a year, not including shoes or gear or garb."
We do our thing for an hour then Vince and I go to the room we got earlier. We both lay on the floor and I say "they could be good if they just tried harder." Vince says "I know." I say "what song did we want to use again?" Vince says "let's listen to some music and think" and he plays the few songs we were interested in. I get up and I say "I think we should keep one of these Cardi B songs." He says "really?" I say "I think we can pull it off" nodding and he says "this'll be fun."
I say "we could do Bodak Yellow?" Vince says "ok, let's listen again" and plays it. I move to the song, just putting some moves to the lyrics. Vince says "it's giving black trip pants and wife beaters but why?" I laugh saying "it's so true though. I'm thinking a lot of floor work." Vince says "it's gonna be so sexy. Let's do it. We'll work on outfits later." I play the song again and I say "how do you want it to start?"
Vince says "let's wait till the beat drops before we actually do anything. Let's have a sway at the beginning maybe." I say "I like that but more of a back and forth. Like side profile, no corners." Vince nods and I say "at the drop, bring it together. Grab the knee, literally throw it back. Pivot to face forward then I feel the need to go to the floor."
Vince chuckles saying "try an isolation as filler then go to the floor. Ok, I got it. Down and push at the drop then this foot can come in as you stand up. Then push the foot like you're moon walking sideways. Ribs and have the head go back when you isolate, people like that shit. Now, how do we want to go to the floor?" I say "just kick drop then I was thinking to bring the hand back and right, left kick then cross the left over. I'm lost now."
I giggle saying "let's figure it then." We just workshop a choreography for the first forty five seconds of the song. Then we memorize it for the next hour or so. I say "ready to go?" Vince says "yeah, let's go. We did good" fist bumping me. We sign out and we go to my car. I drive to his house and he says "I'll see you tomorrow." I nod saying "yeah" yawning and I drive home. I shower then I lay in my bed and I read a text from Veronica saying:
Veronica: goodnight, baby
I then close out of it, marking it unread. I mumble "she drives me up a wall. I think I act pretty uninterested around her." Who am I kidding? I just let her do her thing and I don't say anything. I'd date her brother before her anyway, despite her being considered more attractive by people. He's hotter than her and always has been. I don't think I ever want to see him again though.
I need something new. A change.
