The Nerd Can Dance

Pervert

I pulled up youtube to see the video from the dance get together. It was uploaded late last night. Now just over night, it's had over a million views and thousands of comments. I couldn't look at the comments knowing exactly what they'd say. Monday at school was easy. The video wasn't up yet. But today...I have a bad feeling it was going to be a little rough.

The video looked amazing. Honestly, every time I dance at these meet ups I can't feel but more and more open. More like myself."SKYLAR!" I jumped at the sound of my brother's voice. My door flew open and I closed my laptop.

"No, don't knock. It's okay It's not like I could have been naked or anything." I said. I stood and went into my closet.

"What the hell were you thinking dancing like that?" he asked. I grabbed a pair of shorts and my black loose top with the sleeves cut off.

"I was thinking I was going to be dancing and having a good time." I said. I turned to look at him a slight coat of anger rested on his face."And I did."

"Do you know what people are saying? Everyone I know has texted me about it." he said.

"So. I don't care what they think. I was Dancing. I was having fun. People want to say anything about it then screw them."

"Sky, you can't dance like that." I started making my way to the bathroom."It's..." I froze. I turned to him.

"It's what Chase?" I said. The look on his face told me what he was thinking. And as my brother who was finally starting to make an effort to be more than an asshole. Maybe he can't change. I want to think he can but he can't. He's finally not in the spot light and this is what he does."It's dancing. It's how people dance sometimes. If you can't put up with it then ignore it. The same way mom and dad have ignored me for years." I slammed my bathroom door and locked it.

Lyla waited at my locker for me. When I told her what Chase her reaction was like normal. Rolling her eyes and crossing her arms."I could just beat your brother sometimes."

"You and me both." I pulled my last text book out of my locker then shut it."I live it too."

"Anyway how about we talk about what I witnessed after that dance meet up?"

"I'd rather not." I said as we started walking in the direction of our class.

"We are. I mean people ship you. You two are like perfect for each other, I know you watch his videos."

"Lyla, all I can say is one second we were talking and the next..." I have no words. We were making out and it was nothing short of amazing. Unexpected but amazing.

"Locking lips. I get it.  You two are going to be so Youtube famous." I shoved her so she took a few extra steps.

"Stop okay."

"Fine." We turned into the classroom and took our seats."So after your practice, your house, I'm going to bring the camera and stuff and we'll film your video."

"Sure." Class started off with the teacher giving a small lecture and then we moved on to taking notes.

Since Lyla brought up the kiss it was hard to think about anything else. His lips against mine. How soft and they felt. I didn't stop him...didn't push him away. Honestly, since this stupid competition started he has been talking to me more. I could never imagine this though. Especially with Mia always trying to push herself onto him. It's weird knowing that a few weeks ago...my life would be completely different.

Luch time came around and we stood at our locker putting our things away."How about Mel's for lunch? I think we deserve it." Lyla said bouncing up and down.

"Sure thing." She kissed my cheek and ran off.I grabbed my keys and left the building. I started making my way to my car. Most students stay in the building during in school even though we're allowed to leave. Cars parked everywhere and basically no one around.

"Hey, Sky." I turned looking at Jacob. He's on the football team talk and his dark brown hair almost always gelled perfectly.

"Hi, Jacob." I reached my car and unlocked it."What's up?" I opened the back door and threw my back pack in.

"I just wanted to talk to you." He walked up to me and shut the door."I saw you dance. That was...really something." he said.

"Thanks." The way his smile rested on his face creeped me out."I've gotta-"

"Come one, Maybe stick around a little longer." He stepped closer to me. I kept my body close to my car. "Just so you know I've always been atracted to you." he put his hand on my hip then moved it up so it was under my shirt. I pushed his hand away.

"I've gotta go." I started to turn away but he grabbed my wrist and pinned it to my car. I tried to pry his hand off my with my free hand but he grabbed it pinning it as well. He moved closer to me."Get off me." I said through grit teeth. He just smiled at me.

"We're just about to have some fun."

"No, we weren't. Get off." I felt as his grip got tighter and he leaned closer.

"You'll have fun I promise."

"HEY!" I watched as a fist connected to Jacob's face. He fell to the ground. I looked over at Lucas as he grabbed my hand pulling me to him. I looked as Jacob stood blood on his lip."You'll be expecting a restraining order." Lucas said. Jacobs face quickly turned to fear."get out of here!" Jacob ran and I pressed my face into Lucas's chest as he wrapped his arms around me tighter. After a few seconds, he put his hand to the sides of my face making me look up at him."Are you okay?" I nodded holding putting my hands on his. I felt as he kissed my forehead then brought me back into a hug.

"I'm going to kill him." I looked at Lyla from across the table. She threw her chicken tender down.

"We don't want you going to jail. We'll get a restraining order and hopefully out of school."I felt as Lucas's hand squeezed mine."I always knew he was a prick."

"Are you okay?" I nodded at Lyla. She raised her eyebrow.

"I'm as good as any girl can be they've nearly been assaulted." I picked up a french fry and threw it at her."I'd really just want a nap now."

"My father has a friend at the police station and I'll talk to him."Lucas got up and out of the booth. He put his hand out and I took it. "Me on the other hand, might end up in jail if I see his face again."

"Don't do that." I grabbed his hand and started to pull him so we were leaving the diner."You do that and you ruin your chance of going to Stage One and staying in the competition." We started making our way to my car. After what happened he drove me here leaving his car at the school. "Besides, Jacob might be a pervert but he isn't stupid. He won't try and do something again." I watched as Lucas got into the driver seat and I got into the passenger seat. I looked down and played with the sleeves of his hoodie and not looking at him.

"He's not a pervert. He was going to-"

"I know." I looked up at Lucas. I know what Jacob was going to do. He didn't say anything else."I know what he was going to do. Let's just deal with this the right way." I watched as he nodded and turned into the school parking lot. He parked next to his car.

"Okay. We'll deal with it the right way." I unbuckled my self and leaned over putting my hand on his cheek.

"I'll be fine." a quick peck on the lips then I opened the door. He got out and wrapped his arms around me once more."I'll see you at practice." He kissed my cheek then walked away going into his car.

I went home and got changed into some workout clothes. Our rutine still needs alot of practice. And just because my day has been complete bull shit doesn't mean I can just skip a day. This is my chance to prove my parents wrong and go to a school I want to.
