Dancing In The Dark

Part 2

----------------------------

6;47

"NO-"

----------------------------

I quickly scammed my luggage, putting on some comfortable sweatpants and a tank top, wrapping a hoodie around my waist and grabbing my phone. I ran Out my room and bumped into the boys.

"Diablo Zabdi what's wrong kid?" Richard said while chuckling.

"Let him be, Hes running late to see his new friend." Erick said laughing.

"New friend? OH- Who did you meet?" Christopher asked.

"Mira, ahora mismo no puedo hablar, I'll explain everything later...or tomorrow."

I rushed off again, Running through the street towards the Park she told me to go. Something within me questioned what I was doing. What was I getting out of this? Why am I doing it? But I didn't know how to answer the questions in my head. And I knew that something was off, because if it wear any other girl, someone who didn't look at me the way she did, as if she had found herself by looking at me, I wouldn't be running. I would be resting my head of the stress I had. and this just added more to it, the questions did. But at the same time, I knew that if I didn't do this, it would also add stress.

I made it to the park at exactly 6;59, and there she was. waiting by the small wall that separated the ocean rocks to the higher land. I opened the gate and she turned, She was wearing a Halter crop top with some jeans, her hair moved swiftly through the air and she smiled. 

"I started thinking you wouldn't show."

"Acho perdon... I started showering and opened the case about 15 minutes ago.."

Her eyes widened.

"Did you run the whole way here!?" She asked.

"Yeah, But don't worry, my hotel isn't to far." I said, reassuring her.

She seemed to soften at does words and I smiled.

"So, why did you wanna meet?" I asked.

"Oh.. I hope you don't mind but when I was cleaning, I heard the boys and you say you were having difficulties with the dance... So I wanted to help. Erick sent me the video of the coreo so far and I told him that I can try to help..."

I nodded slightly.

"So you want me to dance..here?"

"They say a Great dancer turns any floor into a stage" She said, smiling lightly.

I smirked and she played the video. I did as much as I could before stopping and huffing out a breath.

"No esta mal. You just need to focus on the basics. In The part were you move your arms to the side, try bending your knee in a little more and your moves would look sharper."

I did what she said and she smiled.

"There we go! You nailed it."

I smiled. 

"I'm sure your enjoying the access of a song and coreo that hasn't been released yet."

She laughed.

"Trust me, I haven't been able to get it off my head" She said.

I chuckled and did the dance again, Singing along to the lyrics.

"Honey Boo, Nadie tiene mas sex'appeal que tu. Y  por donde pasas eres el boom"

I Met her eyes.

"Yo te quiero de primero, pa mi primero."

 She quickly looked away and blushed, I smiled and she spoke.

"So...If you do the coreo here...Why cant you do it with the boys?" She asked.

"No se... I get nervous...I think if i mess up.. then I  messed it up for them...I cant concentrate..and then I mess up" I admit.

"But I'm watching...what makes the difference?"

Many things Alondra... For starters... you have an effect on me already.

"I don't know" I answered.

"Pues, the whole point of coming was to help you practice but you got it down so I guess you can go back."

"No...No me voy" I answered.

She looked at me and I smiled.

"Ven... Wanna get ice cream?"

"I-I-"

"In a friend, type of way"

"Sure"

We left the park and walked towards the buildings again. It was quiet but comfortable. 

-------------------------------

The gentle salty air blew softly but purely, we were eating the ice cream in the now empty Morro. 

"Yo venia aquí mucho, with my brother to fly kites" I spoke.

"Yo tambien..But i use to come with my cousin. I'm the only child."

I took the last bite of the ice cream and looked up at the stars. I saw as she finished her ice cream and I grabbed my hoodie, laying it on the ground to cover our heads from the grass and laid down. I patted the other end and she did the same.

"What's your favorite song?" I asked and watch how a small smile formed on her lips.

"Tu Luz...Y La ley... I love all your songs but those are super cute." She answered.

"Which member is your favorite?" I Teased.

"Eso- Thats not important." She quickly answered.

"I mean... I have to know... Its for scientific reasons." I replied.

She laughed and my world felt complete, because for a second, I felt it. I felt the thing pounding in my chest. I felt the thoughts start to fill me head. So I faced her, and her eyes met mine, and she stopped laughing. Her face turned serious, as if she knew what I was thinking. And something within me told me she did, because I knew she could feel it too. It took me a second to notice that the stars that were in the sky a few minutes ago were now around her. Until I realized they weren't stars. They were golden little specs, And they were increasing slowly. My hands shaking as I was slowly accepting the truth, even if it were an illusion.

Her eyes hadn't looked away from me. Her mouth slightly opened. I broke eye contact and blinked multiple times. It wouldn't go away.

"Do you see-" I began to ask.

"Si..." She whispered, now looking down.

I looked at her. A million thoughts running through my head but my mouth not being able to let out a sound.

And suddenly.

"OYE ZABDI"
