Out Of My League (Under Revision) (Book 1)

Chapter Twenty-Three

"Ow, Colton!" I yelled at him as he stepped into my toes yet again.

"What?"

"I'm seriously thinking you're starting to do this on purpose."

"Do what? Stepping on your toes is all due to my bad coordination." He explained.

"I know. I could tell by the pressure put on my toes multiple times."

"They were all accidental." I glared. "Okay, maybe one was on purpose."

That's when I smacked him on the back of his head.

I smiled sweetly. "I'm sorry. I had a muscle spasm. It was accidental." Now it was his turn to glare.

"Do you really think it's possible to teach me? Well, with you? As a teacher?"

"Do you really think so? If only my toes wouldn't get stepped on every five seconds." With Colton, my annoyance rose fast; not as immediate as it did with Chloe whereas anger is also added with her but, it was pretty damn close.

"Again with your damn toes! They're not being slammed against the wall, are they? Because I'm pretty sure the pain is equivalent to stepping on a lego!"

Deep breaths, Elliana. Deep breaths. You can teach him.

"Forget it!" I sighed. "What dance was it that Eleighna wanted you to learn?"

"Well..."

Oh dear.

"She never really gave me any specifics. She just wanted to see me dance once but..."

I am irritated and frustrated today so basically, if anyone beats around the bush, my attitude should've told you not to fuck around.

"But what?" I urged.

"But she didn't want to see me mess up." My job just got ten times harder.

I can do this. I got this! Thanks George Lopez.

But usually something bad comes up so he's just like, "Oh shit." But is still saying, "I got this!"

What if that happens?

Nope.

He's going to learn and he's going to get it right.

That's when Jace chose the perfect time to walk in. He walked into the living room where the furniture was spread out to the far walls and saw my frustrated expression all the while noticing Colton's nervous one.

"So..." Jace dragged out. "That's some good weather we're having, isn't it?"

Outside, there were dark storm clouds that you could already hear clash to the ground before you could see it happen. It was a pretty big thunderstorm.

"Oh, it's just dandy." I said sarcastically.

Truthfully, that was a half lie. See what I did there? Oh, the irony.

Anyways, I like it when it rains. It smells so good afterwards then there's no sun shining in your eyes. I didn't know what was so good about it raining. Maybe the fact that the aftermath felt so refreshing.

"So, what's happening?"

"I'm trying to teach Colton how to dance."

Jace nearly choked on his own spit. "You're trying to teach him? Well, it's a start. I mean the only dancing Colton knows of... Well..." Colton scowled.

That's when Eleighna decided to enter - messy hair and all. I could already see Jace giving her a loving smile - a smile that Colton thankfully didn't take notice of.
