Chapter 20

It's been a few weeks, and I'm starting to grow frustrated. I have been trying to find a way to fix the locater my brother left for me, much less find a way to connect it the machine. I continued working on it at my desk, before letting out a cry of frustration throwing the screwdriver against the wall in front of my desk.

I let out a loud groan, slouching in my seat as I stared up at the ceiling, dragging my fingers through my hair. I hear a small whine, something being placed on my lap, I look down seeing Hunter staring up at me with big brown, puppy dog eyes. I let out a small sigh, taking my hand and rubbed the top of his head.

"I'm fine boy, just agitated is all." I say softly, looking down at the pup with a small smile.

I jump as the door was all of a sudden swung open, slamming into my room wall. I whirl around seeing South with a determined look on his face. But the look on his face immediately dissipated when Hunter barked happily, running up to meet him.

Hunt has healed well, he can now walk around and can even walked down the stairs. He is still shy around people, although he gets along with the countries well, except for Spain anyway, although it took him a while to warm up to them.

"What's up South?" I ask, turning my chair fully around so I can face him.

"I, and the others." He mumbled lowly. "Have decided it is time for you to take a small break. You have been up here for the past few weeks and hardly left." South stated, placing his hands on his hips.

I raised a brow, "And, I didn't think anyone would complain. I'm working on a way to get you guys home."

South scratched the back of his neck, "Yeah ... I-we know. It's just ... a little break, what could be the harm in it."

I glance over at the locater device, before letting out a sigh, "Fine, what-"

"Great! Let's go!" South exclaimed, grabbing a hold of my wrist and dragging me out of the chair. He dragged me all the way to the gym, stopping in the middle of the room where there is space. "Have you ever danced before?" South questioned, pulling out his phone from his gym shorts pocket, scrolling through something.

"Uh ... no?" I answered, looking at South suspiciously, narrowing my eyes. "Why?" I added, crossing my arms.

"Because I'm going to teach ya." South said, putting on a song that started out with a smooth beat. "We'll start with something simple." He stated, starting out by swaying his hips with the beat, seeming to get a feel for it. When the lyrics start, that's when things started looking complicated. He started moving his feet and legs with the music, before he started moving his whole body with the beat. I struggled to keep up with my eyes ... he was amazing. He moved so fast and fluently with the music, like as if the world around just disappeared.

I thought he forgot I was there until he stopped midway, walking over and pausing the song. "Ready to give it try?"

I looked at him unsure, "Um ... I don't know."

"Oh c'mon." South chuckled, pulling me by the wrist to stand next to him. "Ok the first move is simple, you move your hips in a figure eight. Like this." South said, moving his hips side to side, like he did earlier, except this time I noticed he seemed to go in a circular motion. He stopped after a few times, gesturing for me to try.

I gulped, moving my hips side to side, trying to get a feel for the motion. I then tried the figure eight, however something didn't feel right, I couldn't figure out what.

"(Y/N), here." South stopped me, by grabbing onto my hips. I blush lightly, tensing up. "U-uh, is this ok?" South stuttered, his tone sounding unsure. "I just wanted to show-"
