As Long As We Dance

As Long As We Dance Part 1

Joe sighed as he walk to the front door. He turned the open sign off. He looked out to see part of the moon. Not that he could see it good. You couldn't see much sometimes in Los Angeles. Everyone had left, he was the last one in the restaurant. His parents were already at home. He worked at their family owned restaurant. It was Friday night. He had the pleasure of closing the restaurant every other weekend. He was closing it the past few weekends. Nick was busy, he had finals in College. So he was busy studying. Joe, finished College last year. He was in the process of looking for a job. Not that he needed one, since he worked at the restaurant. His family was well off. They own four other restaurants in town. He lived on his own, for the past year.

Joe has two other brothers. His older brother is married and he moved away to New Jersey. His wife wanted to be closer to her family. His other younger brother Frankie is twelve. Nick was going to be 22 in a few months. Joe just turned 23. Joe was bobbing his head to music that was playing on the radio. He liked to listen to it while he cleaned up. He shook his head as he saw a purse hanging on of the chairs. That happened once and awhile. Purses, getting left behind. Most of the time it was an old lady. He took it and put it behind the counter for now. He would put it in the safe before he head home.

Joe walked back to the table that he found the purse at. He began to clean it off. He was busy wiping down that table and move his body to the music. He stop and spun around when he heard a giggle coming from behind him. His eyes, went wide. His heart raced a bit. He stuck his hand over her chest. He let out the breath that he was hold. "Um.. sorry about scaring you." She said, in the sweetest voice that he had ever heard. She had a lovely smile on her face too. "Pssshhhh, you didn't scare me."He said, with a nervous chuckle. She nodded her head at him. "Yeah, sure. I think that I scared you. Um, or maybe you were embarrassed that you got caught dancing alone." She said.

Joe chuckled again, as he scratched the back of his neck. He let out a sigh. "Fine, you caught me okay. Yes you kind of did scared me and yes I'm a bit embarrassed to get caught dancing." He said. " Hi, I'm Demi Lovato." She said, as she stuck her hand out at him. He stuck his hand out too. As soon as their hands touched, they both felt like a shock run through their bodies. They both gasped at the same time. They both let the others hand drop. "I'm Joe Jonas. Nice to meet you." He said, as she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. Joe looked at her he smiled at her.

She had the most amazing beautiful brown eyes he ever saw. Her hair was black, almost like a raven. She had the most beautiful smile he saw before. She wore a sundress that came to just about her knees. "So" They both said at the same time. Then they both laughed. "Ladies first. "Joe said. "Um, did you happen find a purse while you were cleaning up." She said, as she sighed. Her eyes looked at bit sad. Joe's heart skip a beat as he looked at her. He nodded his head. "Um, yes I did. It must be yours. I put it behind the counter. I thought that it would be an old lady's purse. I always get stuck with giving their purse back. Then they talk my head off or try to set me up with their granddaughters."He said, then he slapped his hand over his mouth. She laughed at him, as he laughed too. "Oops, that was too much information."

"Right. It must be so hard to be so good looking. I bet you have to chase all the girls way. I bet your girlfriend doesn't like that either. " She said, as a smile played on her face. He pulled at his t-shirt, like it was choking him. He blushed. "Soooo, Demi what is that short for something else." He asked, as her smile fell a bit. Then she took a breath in, she put on another smile. "Yes, it is short for Demetria. My parents wanted a boy. So, they could name him Demetri. But instead they had me so I got named Demetira." She said. "I see. So, you are a middle child right." He asked, as she raised an eyebrow at him. "Um, yeah that is right how did you know?"
