Dancing In His Arms

Chapter 21

Waking up at nearly 1 in the afternoon, Luke checks his phone to see if the guys have recovered enough from their drunken state from the night before. Being the responsible one of the group, he had to get them all home himself, a task that kept him up till 2 in the morning. Extremely grateful that Aria gave him the morning off with no set call time, he slept in to his hearts content.

Focusing his blurry eyes he notices a text from Aria. Opening it he reads what it says.

Hope this doesn't wake you up but I just wanted you to know there is no practice today. We are all having a sleepover at mine and Donny's apartment. You are invited if you would like to come. 🙂-A

Thinking it over this would be a great gateway to getting to know these people outside of dance practice. Especially Aria, I could get to know where she lives. Stalker alert right there dude

Sounds fun, where and when-L

Getting off of his bed and heading for the shower, Luke grabs a pair of joggers, an old worn out t-shirt and a clean pair of boxers.

Getting one foot through the door he hears his phone beep from the night stand. Dropping everything on the floor he makes a mad dash for it, belly flopping across his bed to reach his phone. Now knowing her address and to be there anytime after 5, he sets out to start his thorough shower.

...

Pulling up to the one story apartment his gps told him, Luke takes a moment to admire it's simple design. No unnecessary extra ground decorations like a fountain. No, they have a cute bird bath.

Ringing the doorbell, he strains his ears trying to figure out the sounds inside. As Aria opens the door he finds out that it's someone singing along to a disney song.

"Hey come in, come in. You're just in time to sing." Following her through the small hallway to the living room he spots Adrian singing to god knows what.

"Sing?" He asks, raising an eyebrow.

"Yup" She beams, taking his duffle bag and setting it down under the coffee table. "Sing. Tonight it's all about disney. So pick your poison. I promise not to laugh if you are bad." Handing him a makeshift list of disney movies with a subcategory of the songs in them.

Looking back and forth between the list, Aria, and the others he asks "Do I have to?"

"Of course you do! Come on I'll sing one with you if you want." Answers Donny hopping towards him on crutches since there isn't a lot of room to use his chair inside the house with all these people.

"Fine" looking back down at the list, Luke skims over it till he lands on a song he knows from his childhood. "I got it." Showing Donny which one he wants to do, he follows him over to the karaoke set and picks up a mic as Don sets it up so the lyrics show on the tv.

*Luke is normal writing, Donny is italicized, both are bold*

As the music starts, Luke shakes his head not believing he is about to do this "take it back to the place where you know it all began"

"We could be anything we want to be"

"We can tell by the noise that the boys are back again"

"Together making history"

By now they are into it and start dancing along, thus spurring the others along.

"The boys are back. Hey. The boys are back"

Everyone is jumping around the furniture just like Chad and Zack did in the junkyard.

"Keep coming with the right. Win the fight, every single time"

"Undefeated here in our house yeah"

"Here to change the world. To solve the mystery fight the battle save the girl"

Aria poses to play the female silhouette behind the colored window.

"We're the ones that make the rules... OOOOOHHHHH!!!!!"

Luke is surprised to see them all, except Donny for certain limitations, dance along to those in the movie. Then again they all live to dance, so why not learn it when you are a kid and can.

Singing the rest of the song, everyone slumps down. "Ok" panting a little "That was fun, I see why you guys do it."

Breathlessly, everyone laughs "We don't usually go full out dance mob. You guys were just so into it we all got pumped and couldn't stop ourselves from dancing." States Aria handing him a water bottle.

"Seriously?"

"Oh yeah" Everyone agrees or nods.
