Joe POV
I was up bright and early for training. Again. As I was every single day for the past month. I went into the studio and Dianne was already in there, holding her knees on the floor. I immediately ran over to find out what was wrong. I could hear muffled weeps so I put my arm delicately around her and let her speak.
'My mum and daughter were meant to be coming over today, but their flight got cancelled and all the other ones are booked until January.' She resumes crying softly, so I hugged her tighter.
'It'll be alright. I know how you feel, all my family are in Wiltshire, but you've got me, and I know that your- wait, you have a daughter?!'
Dianne POV
I decided that to lighten up my mood on a Monday morning, I would play a little practical joke on Joe, considering all the pranks that he had played on me so far. Before he arrived, I sprinkled water on my face and curled up in a ball, and lied to his face by telling him I had a daughter. He seemed completely shocked when it finally came to his attention.
'Yeah her names Amelia' I had thought of all the details.
'Oh right, who's the father?'
'I don't know really, could be anyone. She's only 3 so it's completely legal' I put my head back in my legs and skilfully laughed so it sounded like I was crying. When I looked up again, he was standing, legs apart, totally taken aback- which made me wonder why he cared so much.
"Well, that's rock and roll" he replied unsurely.
Stop it Dianne, he's just a good friend, that's all.
'Sorry for burdening you with my issues, let's Cha Cha' I decided I'd let the joke run on a little bit longer and see where I could take it- because why not?
After a few hours of running through the steps, I noticed a look of distress on Joes face.
'Whassup, Joseph?' I asked perkily to help lighten the mood.
'How do your hips move so good? You're like a jellyfish and I'm like a plank of wood' I could tell it was genuinely upsetting him, which made me upset, so I decided to help. I reached out for his hand, and he scrunched up his forehead in confusion.
'Come on Mahogany, we've got work to do. He let out a side smirk, which made me feel weak at the knees. As his hand touched mine, we made brief eye contact, and the connection was so strong it was visible. I shook it off, and walked him to the front of the room, near the mirrors.
'Okay lift up your T-Shirt' I said, sounding very dodgy in the process.
'Alright, steady on!' He replied in an accent. I rolled my eyes, as he tied his T-Shirt. All the dancing had given him a great body, and couldn't help but stare for few seconds.
'You want to move your hips in a figure of eight, like this' I demonstrated, and watched intently, although couldn't quite do it himself.
'Here, I'll help' I placed my hands on his hips, and he placed his hands on top of mine, which made the butterflies in my stomach go wild, and my heart pump as if I'd run a marathon. He noticed the way I was looking at him, and he gave me one of his demon side smirks. I was lost in the pools of his eyes, his touch making me feel weak and powerless- he had rendered me absolutely speechless and all I could do was stare.
'Reddo, your staring'
'Sorry!' I said snapping back from my trance,'My eyes went funny' I could tell he wasn't convinced.
'The hips?'
'Right, yes' I started pushing his hips from side to side trying to loosen them up, but nothing was working, and it was 10:00 at night.
'Let's call it a day, yeah?' I asked, and I was responded to with a nod.
'Do you wanna come back to mine to film a reaction video?' He asked as we were putting our shoes on. Perfect. I could find out how he felt.
'Yeah sure, let's go' he called an Uber and before I knew it, we were sitting on his sofa watching Netflix.
