( DANCE, DANCE )
by unhelpful-y0da

It was a Tuesday evening. Your parents went on a date so you had to ask Zach, your boyfriend, to bring you to dance practice. He only wanted to bring you on one condition. If he could see you dance. You have been dancing since you were 8, you were making your way to the ultimate top but when you were 15 you broke your ankle. It was one pirouette too much. It was a painful and very long recovery but you were slowly getting back to your old level. Even tho it would be the first time your boyfriend saw you dance you agreed with his condition. It was a two hour training so you thought he would get bored anyway and stop watching. But at the one hour break his eyes were still locked at you. Practice was over, you took a quick shower and started to walk towards Zach's car. He was already inside, waiting for you so you got in.

"Babe, why did you never tell me you were this good?" Zach says overexcited.

"Because I'm not that good, you should have seen me before I broke my ankle. Those were the days I was good, now I'm just growing."

"Not good? I don't know what you saw in those mirrors but you were incredible. The way you can move your hips, and it's so clean and synchronized."

"Zach you're exaggerating." You say while rolling your eyes.

"I have an idea!" Zach suddenly shouts while driving back to your house.

"Why don't you join the cheersquad? You would be captain without a doubt and we could go to the games together and  you can cheer for me and I can watch you dance!"

"Zach, I'm not ready for everyone to see me dance. I've been at such a higher level, if I want people to watch me I have to be at my best."

You saw the disappointment in Zach's eyes. He pouted his lip at you.

"Are you suuuure?" You didn't expect him to be so excited about you dancing.

"Zach I'm sure but it's really sweet of you that you like it so much. Can I cheer you up with a night of cuddling?" Zach's face lit up.

"How can I say no to that!"

It had been a week since Zach talked to you about the cheerleader thing. It had been crossing your mind a lot. You always felt attracted by the idea of being a cheerleader but you thought you didn't had the skills to dance good and try to distract the other team at the same time. Maybe you should join the team, by that you could make some new friends and maybe you could grow even more at dancing. You talked to Sheri, did a list minute try out and joined the team. The whole team was wild about your dance skills they even insisted on you joining the team. Maybe Zach was right, maybe you had some skills.

You had your first training with the girls. You hadn't told Zach yet about you joining the team. You knew he would be excited and happy for you but you didn't want to take his mind of the big game.

You were telling the girls about how bad Zach wanted you to be a cheerleader when suddenly Jess asks:

"Have you told him yet?"

"Well no, I didn't want to take his mind of the big game."

"Awesome! We should make a surprise for him. We'll make a hot new dance routine with you in the front." Jess says full of excitement.

"What? Are you sure?"

"More than sure, let's do this!" she says while the rest of the girls are nodding affirmatively.

After a couple hours of exhausting training and dancing your, very sexy, butt of the routine was finished. You were rehearsing one last time when suddenly a couple of basketball players started to walk in. Shit! You thought by yourself. Zach couldn't see you here, otherwise everything was ruined. You picked up your bags and ran out the opposite door where the basketball players were coming from.

You immediately got in your car and went home. When you were home you saw a text from Jess.

"Just in time! You're going to kill the routine tomorrow!"

——————————————

It was 2 minutes before halftime. This was going to be your moment, you practiced so hard and you wanted to make Zach proud. Suddenly the buzzer went of  you came from behind the bleachers and stood behind your team. These girls were great, they supported you so much and they weren't a bunch of jealous bitches as some people said. You were really happy you joined them.

The music started to play, the song you danced on was Hands to myself by Selene Gomez, which you thought was a really good choice.

You all stood on your places and started the routine. It had a lot of sass and bootyshaking so it definitely was a sexy dance. When you looked over to the basketball team you saw Justin smacking Zach shoulder. You saw him say: "Dude, is that y/n?" Suddenly Zach turns around and his eyes met yours right on the moment when you lip sync the part 'can't keep my hands to myself'. This made a wide grin appear on Zach's face during the rest of the routine you felt Zach's eyes burn while you were dancing as hard as you could. You felt kind of sexy doing it.

The routine was done and everybody started clapping. When you were walking off the court Zach took your wrist and turned you around when he whispered in your ear:

"Damn I think I want a piece of that after the game, baby girl."

"Only if you finish the game good." You whisper back giving him a flirtatious wink.

Your boy played like his life depended on it. He couldn't stop smiling during the second half. He obviously liked it that he could call you his cheerleader now and you didn't mind at all.
