Chapter three:

Week 1: The Cha Cha!

(Narrator's POV)

It was the big night, week one of Dancing with the Stars and Meryl and Maks were waiting backstage with the other competitors. Meryl hasn't spoken to Maks since that day when they almost kissed. It was strictly business, she just nodded her head as a response when Maks gave her tips on her dancing. But they were going to be on TV for everyone to see them and she didn't want to be mad at her partner. She just needed some answers. She took Maks' hand and led him away from the other group. He looked confused.

"I just need to know why. Tell me why and then I'll be ready to dance no matter what you say." she said in a rush

"What are you talking about?" Maks asked in that heart melting Russian accent

"The other day when you almost kissed me, you said we can't. Why? Why can't we? Did I do something to-" she was cut off by Maks' deep sexy laugh. But this time Meryl didn't join in.

"I don't understand how this is funny." she said crossing her arms over her chest.

"You're right, it is serious." he tried to be serious but he started to laugh again. then when he saw the expression on Meryl's face he finally stopped. "Meryl I said we can't because we actually can't, I am not allowed to date my students. It's against the rules. And if you think that I pulled away because of you , you are crazy. I love you Meryl." that was all Meryl needed, she jumped into Maks' arms and hugged him with all her might.

"I love you too." she whispered into his ear. Maks kissed her on the cheek.

"Are you ready to dance with me?" he asked

"Let's do this." Meryl said and they headed back towards the group and waited for their turn to dance.

"Dancing the Cha Cha Cha, Meryl Davis and her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy." As soon as the music started to play Meryl was transported to another world, a world all about Maks. All she could think about was how perfect it felt to dance with him. She couldn't help smiling as the dance went on. She was dancing with her true love and didn't want it to end, but of course it did. When the music ended Maks kissed her on the cheek and whispered in her ear.

"You are amazing."
