Fun with the band

Faye:

As Giovanni and I are now sitting in the dance studio for our rehearsal, I think about how entertaining the Strictly final actually will be. Because all the eliminated contestants will join us for a additional dance that all of the dance couples will perform together in the final. I admit, that this is actually a really nice idea and everyone's looking forward. There are so many celebs that were eliminated too early or unfairly - Vick and Kate for example but also Danny and now they get to prove their talent again.

Also, Giovanni and me chose to perform our Theatre Jazz as our favourite dance, while the judges decided that we should dance our Waltz again. Our showdance is a bit of a classy performance, and I really like this idea, so I'm definitely excited if we could impress the judges - and of course the audience!

"Should I tell you something, beauty?" Giovanni asks me and interrupts my thoughts. We're sitting close to each other while talking about the dances, having a small break from dancing. 

"Yes, tell me." I reply interested, assuming it's something about our performance. Giovanni really wants this showdance be perfect and also to 'portray' me, as he explained and he's probably just as exited for our performance as me.

"Do you know who will support you in the final?"

"I guess you and my family." I answer him, a bit confused. What exactly is he implying?

"Yes, definitely. But I also want you to see somebody else." he tells me, taking me by the hands. I don't know what he means or what to respond, so I just look at him, still confused, as the door to our dance studio opens. And I honestly can't believe who I see.

"I called Steps to support you." Giovanni says. 

"What?" I ask stunned, looking at them in disbelief.

"I said-"

"No, I mean- I understood you." I interrupt him. "But how?"

"I called them when we were in the semi-final and asked them if they would like to come and support you if we would made it to the final, because you are all very close to each other as bandmates. And of course they agreed." he explains to me.

Honestly, I don't know what to respond him. This man is truly incredible. He really called my bandmates from Steps to support me in rehearsal, that's so cute.

Of course they supported me during this journey on the show, but sadly we didn't saw each other because Giovanni and I were just busy with rehearsals - and of course they were also rather busy. So I can say that it's truly a surprise to see them now, standing here with us in the dance studio. But after a while of just looking at each other, we finally welcome us very happily and with a lot of smiles. "I'm so happy to see you!" I say to them, still smiling. "Thank you so much!"

"You're welcome." Giovanni answers, laughing. "We already talked a bit to each other when I called them, didn't we?"

"Absolutely. Nice to see you again." H says, all chatty. "Remember when celebrating with us all after we performed at the show?"

"Of course I do. And I still love all your songs." Giovanni replies.

"But he isn't a talented singer himself." I say amused.

"Well, we could teach you to sing if you want us to." Lee offers him, also sounding a bit amused. "And if you would like to teach us how to dance."

I admit, that this actually would be a nice idea. I love Giovanni and I love this people here, so it would be simply amazing if we would get along just so perfectly. How great would it be if he could choreograph something for a music video of Steps? Well yes, we don't dance ballroom or latin in our videos at all, but still.
