"Why wouldn't I, I love Bhangra."

Pretty replied to Gurjot as she looked into his big brown eyes through his round yet squared glasses frame and he saw the twinkle in her eye. It was always there when she talked about things she was passionate about like for example Bhangra. Even though she has only done it for a year and a half she was one of the most dedicated dancers he knew so he had to have her on his team and he also has been crushing on her since they were sophomores. He took a few steps back and shot her a playful smile and said

"Aye, you remember that little routine we made up at Arti's wedding?"

She just looked at him and gave him the same smile he gave her and he already knew that she remembered it he just wanted to ask so he had something else to say. Then Pretty busted out her phone from her back pocket and she played a mix off of sound cloud and they were both in their positions ready to start. They both smiled at each other and twitched their necks causing each of their heads to tilt a bit in the opposite direction of each other , and when the music finally made it to the part when they start dancing they hit every move in unison as if they were speaking their own language or as if they were the only people in the room with energetic souls with a need to collide into a passion filled movement.

"Aww that was really cute!"

One of the voices among the other dancers on the team spoke up and Pretty didn't quite know whose voice it was but she kept going until they finished

"I loved that it would be such a cute gimmick."

The same girl complimented them on it and Pretty still couldn't match the voice to a face but she still thanked her for the compliment with a tired smile and Gurjot came up behind Pretty and gave her a hug wrapping his arms around her midsection and she put her hands over his and she looked at him

"Wow I didn't think we did that well."

Pretty casually voiced with a smile still lingering on her lips and Gurjot pushed his glasses further onto his face to prevent them from falling and he uttered out an accidental compliment in a low volume so only she could hear

"Well your my Jodi cause I can only dance well with you and your prefect self."

"Pssshhhhttt I only did well with you and your perfect self!"

Pretty mimicked they way he had complimented her and after she had said this she delightfully gave him a rough pat on the back and Gurjot being a bit skinny for a 17 year old and also being very nimble had stumbled forward a bit from the hit and and he tried to pull himself together hoping she hadn't see. It but she just elfishly laughed at his and her clumsiness.

One of the girls walked over to Pretty and again complimented

"I really liked that, and uhh it seems you and Gurjot have some kind of... Chemistry between each other. I basically wanted to say that you guys make a really cute couple..."

She gave Pretty an overly happy and friendly smile and Pretti gave her a confused look

"Wait what? Me a-and Gurjot?! That's funny we're just really good friends and nothing more. I guess we just really get along I don't know, but thanks anyway. WAIT! I never got you name and I'm Pretty by the way."

"Karen."

She responded. Karen opened her mouth to say something else but she was stopped by the ringing of her phone

"Sorry, I gotta take this on sec."

She pulled out her phone and walked over into another room and answered it. Pretty just walked back over to Gurjot then his mom yelled for him

"GURJOT!!!"

She yelled from upstairs and he rolled his eyes and moaned in an upset tone

"WHAT?!"

He yelled back

"COME CLEAN YOUR ROOM SINCE YOUR FRIEND IS SLEEPING OVER!!!"

"LATER MOM IM BUSY WITH MY TEAM!"

"I DONT CARE GURJOT IF YOU DONT CLEAN YOUR ROOM THERE WILL BE NO TEAM! I MEAN LOOK AT YOUR SISTER AMNEET'S ROOM ALWAYS CLEAN! NOW COME!"

He groaned again and lazily ran up his stairs and then Karen walked out from the room and announced

"Well I gotta get home my mom needs help with dinner. I'll see you guys at school or next practice, bye!"

Sh exited the house with the same friendly smile and then AP walked over to Pretty and said

"Well I guess both of our Jodi's are out."
