Believing You

Chapter 15 - May I?

Mabel's Pov

I walked through the empty hallway of the schools complementing on what to do, there's no way that I would go to the library this early. I'm going to end up sleeping in there, if it wasn't for Jade I would still be having a date with my bed. The things I do for my sister...... I was walking so mindlessly that I didn't realize that I stopped in front of the dancing room. The door was shut but you can still hear a faint music playing from inside the room. I know for sure that it wasn't playing from the music room , it was those kind of pop music.

I stood on my tip toes and peeked from the small window at door to find out who was in it. I thought it might be Jennifer or some other couple practicing but it was...... Dylan? His the one dancing......alone? Not even with one single bimbo. I know what's wrong with me now, my brain is still sleeping, that's why I am seeing things now. I turned and started to walk away, slapping myself to wake up but I guess that somehow Dylan must have sense that someone was outside watching me because I heard the door open.

"You don't have to run away and hide the fact that you were drooling over me dancing princess." I know from the sound of his footstep that he was standing behind me now.

I stood there and closed my eyes tightly like a small kid that was caught snooping around. Wait why am I even feeling like that? I didn't do anything wrong and I was definitely not checking him out, if anything I was running away from him. I feel that the world is joking with me, whatever I do or go I'm going to end up seeing him. My life isn't the kind of story where fairy tales happen. Screw all of it maybe the library isn't such a bad place after all. I walked away acting if he didn't exist until he grabbed my wrist and spun me towards him, his other hand now holding my waist from behind. We were both looking at each other straight in the eye, although I broke eye contact after a good 6 seconds and pushed myself away from him.

He looked at me with a smirk before turning his back and entered the room again. Don't ask me why but I decided to follow him in and stood there like an idiot for a few seconds. Now it was his turn to ignore me scrolling through his phone until he played a soft slow song.

"May I?" He bowed and held out his hand to me like a gentleman.

I reached towards his hand before I stop and took my hand back in hugging myself. He could clearly see the hesitation in my eye as he continued saying something while lifting his head a little bit to look at me, an obvious smirk on his face. "Don't forget about our performance in three weeks. We need to start practicing soon anyway you can run away forever."

"Fine." I gave in. It's just dancing for a few weeks with him then it will all be over and I can resume my normal life of ignoring him. " But it's just dancing and nothing else you get me?" I took his hand and said sternly.

His lips curved upwards and took me in his hands again, a hand on my waist, the other hand holding my hand. Both us moving gently to the music, dancing slowly like how we danced for the first time. The music was not I what I expected, it was a Chinese song. Who knew that a guy like him listens to Chinese music.

"A Chinese song huh?"

"It's special. Just like you." He lowered me down and then pulled me up to him again.

"Loose up princess, you're too tense. Enjoy the music." He whispered in my ear.

I took a deep breath in and gave into the music. Although it was a Chinese song there were still a few words that I understood, well mainly because a few lines were sang in English. Yea cause you're not that smart to know another language like Dylan.

'Sarang heyo mean's I love you'

I really wanted to ask him did he chose this song on purpose but I didn't want to interrupt this moment. It's not like it's a sweet or romantic moment, it's just a serious moment where I didn't want to trip over and make a fool out of myself. Knock it off Mabel it's only a song with some cheesy lyrics. It means nothing. Nothing......
