Joe POV
Shaking like a leaf, I pulled my phone from my pocket and pressed record, checking my hair quickly, I gave the camera a nervous grin and weakly knocked on the door. "Come in if you're good looking" I heard shouted back at me. Off to a good start sugg I smirked to myself. Breathing in and out to clam my nerves, I pushed open the door and walked towards the beautiful Australian red head standing before me. Stop Joe she's your dance partner I thought to myself, that's all she'll ever be. suddenly my thoughts were cut off by two arms snaking round my neck. I quickly hugged Dianne back making sure not to linger for too long and asked her about our first dance. Wow the jive suddenly I felt a pang of nerves again week 1 and I'd already been thrown in the deep end. Dianne was so talented I just couldn't believe it not only was she the most amazing dancer I had ever set eyes on she was also the most amazing teacher, how crazy to think just one year ago I was sat around the Tv with my Nan and grandad watching this amazing woman dance with no clue that one day it would be me.
Dianne POV
I was so impressed Joe seemed to be picking up the steps with such ease maybe he could be a dancer after all. I'll be honest after his lame attempt to pick me up when we were partnered up I did not have very high hopes for him in fact I thought it may be a repeat of last year, but how he has surprised me. Not only was he such a great student, taking on board my praise but also criticism, he was also possibly the funniest person I've ever spoken to. We've literally been in the training room all of an hour and I already feel like I've known him forever, I was so worried we wouldn't get along but how wrong was I he is everything I could have asked for and more. No Dianne why would you think like that he's your dance partner nothing more, nothing less it would be stupid to mix business with pleasure. I was snapped back to reality again by joe coming back in with two coffees in his hand. "Christmas coffees" he practically screamed "come on di let's get in the Christmas spirit". Wow he called me di the Butterflies in my stomach uncontrollable by this point. I could feel myself blushing, "thanks J" I smiled "you do know it's still September though" I said through giggles. Calling him J what was I thinking how stupid was I come on Dianne just concentrate on the dance I thought to myself.
Joe POV
J she called me J! I felt like a little girl my stomach churning but not in the bad way. I was so happy we got on so well Dianne is literally the best, I already could not wait for all the long days of training we are going to spend together she is like the person I never knew I needed in my life. The hours just seemed to fly by the next time I looked at the clock it was already 7:30. We ran through the steps one last time Before Dianne decided it was time to call it a night. "Alright Joseph I think that's enough for your first day you've been absolutely amazing, thank you so much. I'll se you in the morning bright and early same place same time, if you need anything just ring me." She gushed. I couldn't help but feel a bit sad that day was over so quickly what had gotten in to me I'll see her in the morning I thought. Alright dianne see you tomorrow thank you for today I couldn't have done any of it without you I already can't wait to get back it it tomorrow and with that I walked out of the studio leaving Dianne behind me.
