You were invited to your friends wedding and you did not know that she wanted everyone to dance with her after the ceremony. Great. She said if you didn't already know how to dance then you had to take dancing lessons. You're paired up with this gorgeous guy Jack and you really don't want to embarrass yourself in front of him. So you decided you're going to take the lessons.

After you arrive at the dance studio you walk in and there is no one else in the room. Maybe you are the first one here ? You place your stuff down and just stand and wait for others to arrive.

" Oh you're here, let's begin then. ", you are guessing he is your instructor.

" Shouldn't we wait on the others ", you ask.

" Others ? No I do individual lessons. ", he said to me while bringing out speakers.

" Oh. ", you say. Fucking great, now you're more nervous than before.

" Okay so what kind of dance are we trying to learn ? Salsa , waltz , what ? " , he asked quickly.

" Waltz , I think ? ", you ask. You had no idea.

" Why are you learning to dance ? ", he asked.

" Well I got invited to my friends wedding and- ", he cut you off.

" Then you need to learn the waltz. ", he said.

" okay. ", you say blankly.

" oh, my name is Mark by the way. ", he says to you.

" y/n ", you say your name.

He turns some music on from his phone and it sounds through the speakers.

He sets his phone down on the ground and looks back up to you.

" First things first you are going to have to take your shoes and jacket off. You can't dance in that. ", he says.

" I am going to be dancing in heals at the wedding. ", you say questioningly.

" We will work our way up to that. ", he says and he kicks his shoes off.

You couldn't help but feel butterflies in your stomach, you were so nervous.

You stand frozen on the floor and he just kinda looks at you.

" well you are going to have to come closer so I can teach you.", he says.

Why is he being such an ass. You're just nervous.

You walk closer to him and he wraps his arm around your waist. You tense up a little but try to relax.

" Put your hand on my shoulder. ", you do as he says and he grabs your other hand with his and intertwines your fingers.

" Okay now step on my feet. ", he says an you give him a funny look.

" I'm going to show you how the dance is supposed to go. ", he says trying to explain.

You step on his feet and it doesn't seem to bother him.

He begins puts one foot out and your foot goes back as his goes forward.

" So when I step forward with this foot, you have to step back with that foot. ", he said looking at you. You nod and he continues. He then rotates his whole body.

" Now when you waltz you kinda go in a circle. Just not a big one. ", he says while moving his feet back and forth.

" Okay let's try it with you on the floor. You can look at the floor if you need to. ", he says making some space.

He moves his feet forward and you move yours back. He moves his feet back and you move yours forward. This isn't so hard.

" Okay now look at me and try it. ", he says to me. You look at him and he begins to dance.

You step on his feet a numerous amount of times and he stops.

" I'm sorry, maybe I just need to look down at my feet again. ", You say looking down.

He lifts your chin up with his hand, " don't get discouraged. These things take time. Just try again. "

You did try again. After a few weeks of lessons you finally mastered the waltz with high heels. You also got to know a lot about Mark and you guys have become great friends.

Today is the wedding day and you are really nervous to dance with Jack. You invited Mark to the wedding, with approval of the bride of course.

The wedding was beautiful and now it was time for the bride and groom to have their first dance.

" Okay everyone I want all of you up here with us dancing. ", the bride says in the microphone and the music begins.

You were sitting at a round table with Mark and you looked over at Jack looking at his phone.

" I'm nervous. What if I mess up ? ", You ask Mark.

" You won't trust me, you have a good teacher ", he winks.

You get up and make your way toward Jack.

" Hi, Jack. ", You say nervously.

" Hey ", he says still staring at his phone.

" So umm I think we are supposed to go up there and dance. " , You say looking at him.

" Yeah I didn't take the lessons so I am not going to dance. Sorry. ", he says giving you a quick glance.

" oh okay, that's fine. I'll see you later then. ", you say and then walk back to the table.

" What happened? ", Mark said knowing something went wrong.

" He didn't take the lessons so he isn't going to dance with me. ", you says with your shoulder leaning against the table.

Mark stands up and places his hand out from you and says , " come on. "

" What ? ", you ask.

" You have worked hard and you are getting a dance whether it's from that prick or from me. ", he says with a smile.

You smile and take his hand.

He guides you to the dance floor and he places his hand on your lower back and you place yours on his shoulder. You intertwine your fingers on the other hand as you begin to dance.

It felt right to dance with Mark. You felt like you belonged there.

" You look really beautiful tonight. ", he says in a soft voice.

You smile and look down.

He lifts your chin up with hand and lays a soft kiss on your lips.

You knew then that you were supposed to be with him.

" I'm so glad I took lessons. ", you laugh.

" Me too. ", Mark smiles and kisses you again.
