The song he chose was Justin Bieber – Fall.
JUSTIN BIEBER. BIEBER. REALLY? Out of all the other songs, this guy had to choose a Bieber song.
Is he even a guy? I mean he has good taste in other songs but why do a routine to Justin Bieber? No offence to all the ‘Beliebers’ out there. But before I ask he answers my question.
“The reason why I’m doing a song of his is because it doesn’t matter who the singer is BUT the meaning behind the song. That’s why I chose this song as it reminds me of…something.”
I look at him then sigh. “Fine; whatever but the choreography better be good” I smirk at him.
“Oh don’t worry. I always make my choreographies to perfection.” I roll my eyes at his cockiness.
It was Saturday in the afternoon and we were in his living room. We cleared out space and he connected his phone to the laptop so he could play the song out loud and teach me at the same time. While he was doing that I started to stretch my arms and legs in case of any cramps, also I wore sweatpants and a vest top as I know we probably will sweat. Probably.
“So I broke down the choreography into 4 parts. Now there’s 2 weeks till Christmas and 2 weeks till…..the new year talent show.”
“Since when did you apply for the talent show?” I smiled smugly.
He looked anywhere but me. “I didn’t…we did.”
I froze. “What??! I am not doing the talent show.”
“But you’re not. WE are.”
“But I didn’t register. YOU did.”
“Touché but I thought it would be fun! Plus you’re good at dancing, and I’m good at dancing so let’s show everyone that we have better talent than they do so we can win it.”
I pause for a moment. “Damian what do you think you’ll get out of this? You can’t just drag me into performing in front of our school. I’m really self-conscious when showing my dance.”
He comes close to me and smiles genuinely. “I want a standing ovation to see how they appreciate our routine, so they can see we have talent. And I will perform my own routine of another song in front of them on my own, IF you perform your own routine to another song of your choice. Remember I am helping you in karate and for tournament.”
Sighing, I say “Well what would I get from it? I’m scared to perform in front of people I know as they will judge. Society today is full of judgemental people.”
“From this you will get people applauding you because of your amazing hidden talent. The talent show would be pointless without us. I mean they should be thankful we’re taking part otherwise they’ll all die of boredom.”
