"So, you should probably start alone on the floor or something and then I can enter after about 30 seconds of you dancing alone?" Harry suggests and Louis nods. Louis wouldn't call himself a bad dancer, he has rhythm, but he could use some practice that's for sure. So he's a little nervous about dancing on his own for 30 seconds, but he hopes he can manage.

Harry's surprisingly very good at the whole choreography thing. They start developing Louis' part of the dance and Harry pretty much comes with all the input. Louis is trying to make suggestions but he honestly thinks it would just ruin the whole thing. Harry has so many feelings in this that it seems so real.

"Okay, so start laying fully on the ground, on your back, and then quickly sit up as if you woke up from a nightmare and then clutch your chest a take a few deep breaths." Harry instructs, and Louis does exactly what he is told, trying to make it as graceful as possible.

"He's so beautiful, wow, it's like- Harry don't distract yourself, you can pine over Louis and his amazing body some other time, this is serious."

"Then lay back down again and roll onto your stomach. Punch the floor a couple of times and then go up on your knees." Louis ends up on his knees and hands, knowing full well that harry only wanted him on knees, but Louis just wanted to hear his reaction.

"What I wouldn't give to have my way with that bum."

Louis smirks to himself, which goes unnoticed by Harry.

"No, just on your knees," Harry instructs after a couple of seconds. "Yes, exactly. Now act like you're trying to stand up, but you can't." Louis does that. "And then make it graceful this time." Harry laughs when Louis looks like he's an old man who can't get out of bed. Louis' mouth drops open at the insult and he stands up to punch Harry playfully. He goes in for another punch after that, but Harry catches his hand before it touches him.

Harry raises his eyes in dominance and Louis tries pulling back, but Harry just pulls him even closer to himself until they're flush against each other's chests. Louis feels his body go numb at the closeness.

"Harry, you know you can't." Harry's eyes drop closed for a couple of seconds where Louis looks confused up at him. Why can't he?

"Let's take a break from your solo and try out some lifts?" Harry asks after having taken a few steps back again, and Louis decides to let go of his other thoughts - for now at least.

"Okay." Louis agrees. He was actually kind of looking forward to this part. He wanted to see what Harry could do and if he really was as strong as he looked.

"How about our finishing lift is the dirty dancing lift, but with one arm?" Louis' eyes widen at Harry's words, and a lot of concerns race through his mind.

"Is that safe?" Louis asks and you can easily spot the fear in his eyes.

"Guess we'll find out," Harry shrugs playfully to which Louis' eyes widen even more and Harry laughs. "Don't worry, I have you." Harry says genuinely and Louis nods with a shaky breath.

"But I think we should have a couple of smaller lifts as well, that will lead up to the grand finale." Harry says and Louis suggests that they do one where he's running in for the dirty dancing, but is too scared to do it, so when Harry's carrying him he wraps his legs around his waist and hangs his head down while Harry spins them around.

Harry seems to like the idea and they agree on cooperating that, as well as a few other lifts, into the dance. They start rehearsing some of the easier lifts and both manage quite well. Better than Louis would have thought. It turns out the two fit together pretty well as a dancing duo.

Then it's time to do the semi-big lift that Louis came up with. It's not that crazy, but Louis' kind of nervous about the fact the he's going to be very close to Harry with his legs wrapped around the taller boy even.

Harry stands firmly in the middle of the room while Louis goes to one of the sides so he can have a proper run-up. He has to make it look like he's going in for the dirty dancing move, but then regrets it in the last second. "So when I get to you, lift me upright so my belly button is by your face and then slowly sink me down so I can wrap my legs around you." Louis blushes faintly as he says the last part.

Harry nods and stretches his hands forward so he's ready for Louis. Within the next couple of seconds Louis is getting ready and then running towards Harry. He jumps as high as possible when he gets to Harry and is carried the rest until he can place his hands on Harry's shoulders, his arms stretched out completely. Harry wraps his arms around Louis' lower back and slowly lowers Louis until they are face to face. Louis then spreads his legs and hooks his feet together behind Harry's back so he's secure there.

"Hold me just over my bum." Louis instructs and Harry does so, but Louis doesn't miss Harry's blush when he does. Louis then arches back until his head is hanging down and Harry's holding him there.

"Then spin around a couple of times." Harry obeys to Louis' instruction and Louis stretches out his arms as they spin around a couple of times until Harry stops.

With Harry's help, Louis raises himself up until the boys are face to face again. Louis smiles at Harry and the green-eyed boy smiles back, both happy with the result of the lift. They share an intimate moment and then Louis sees Harry's eyes drop down to his lips, and it almost instinctively makes Louis lick his lips.

"Harry, stop it. It'll just go wrong like last time. You can't let lust take over you like this again. Not like you did with Nick."

Harry gently lowers Louis down to the ground until Louis' feet reach the wooden surface.

Louis has to try his hardest not to react physically to Harry's thoughts. He's kind of disappointed, not gonna lie, he wanted to kiss the boy, but it really sounds like he's having problems. This Nick guy must have treated him terribly for him to be this cautious.

"Um, so I have to go, I think we should practise the big lift another day, tomorrow maybe?"

"Sure." Louis says, a little spaced out because of Harry's words and thoughts."

"Great, so I'll just um- I'll just go" Harry picks his stuff up from the side of the room and walks out of the door, seemingly in a hurry. "Bye." He barely says before he's out.

"Oh..bye then." Louis frowns.
