Chapter 40: Dance Lessons

My acorn beeped. No one seemed to notice. I ran behind a tree, and opened the acorn.

"Hey, Maroon!" Passion's voice chirped.

"Erm- Hi. What do you need?" "I'm going to teach you how to dance, silly!" "Excuse me?" "I mean- Ahhh! A Roalstin! How.. terrifying.." "Yeah, ok.. I'll be there in a second." I vanished from where I was standing, and appeared under the tree where I met Passion.

"Greetings!" She chirped. "Erm- Hi. So what's all about this 'teach you how to dance thing?'" "You know.. You have a girlfriend and all?" "Yeah, what's your point?" "What if you go to a dance or something."

"Full time super, Passion." "Yeah, and?" "Fair point.." "Thanks. Anyway, yeah. You should know how to dance." "That's true.. I am terrible.." "Exactly. So you have to know how! Just in case of course."

"Alright, then. When're we going to start?" "Right now." Passion bent down, and pressed a button on a radio. "Happy" started playing. "Your taste is in cheerful music, isn't it?"

"Yeah, isn't yours?" "Er- more Ed Sheeran and Fallout Boy honestly. Bit of TOP." "Oh, I see." Passion grabbed my hand. "Wh-" "First move. I like to call it back and fourth."

She lifted her right foot, and bent her knee. "Like that. You kinda move back and fourth too." I ran the dance through my head. "Gotcha."

We both did the dance, but I ended up falling back on my butt. "Er- good try, Maroon." "Thanks.." Passion held out a hand, and helped me up.

"Try again, I think you'll get it.." I tried again, and almost had it-but let go of Passion's hand and stumbled backward. "Three times a charm.." I tried again, and didn't fall on my butt this time.

"I think you should get back to your other friends. They might notice you're gone." "Right." I turned around before I left. "Hey, Passion?" "Yeah?"

"Thanks for the first lesson." "What- you mean you'll come back for more?" I smiled. "Yeah, I will. You're a good teacher." Passion's face was a light shade of pink. "Er- See you." She said, waving.

"See you." I said as I vanished from under the tree.
