Jenna's POV
I swear every rehearsal day has something different and this one was interesting to say the least.
[..]
Artem and I have a bumper on the new season of dwts, and I am ecstatic. Artem and I have always had a connection, but we never really looked into it. When I dance with him everybody could see the passion and the chemistry. And now I am on my way to our rehearsal studio, I say hi to everybody that I walk by until I reach the door.
I walk inside, and of corse no Artem. So I stretch out and get started. We were dancing to Thinking Out Loud. Sure our dance was only 30 seconds, but it would be 30 seconds of us. Just us dancing together.
20 minutes later, no Artem. I decided to try to choreograph the dance myself. That is definitely a hard thing to do. I pretended to be lifted in the air until I was actually lifted and spun around by Artem. "I'm so late I know. Rehearsal went way over time I'm sorry." Artem said. "Oh no it's fine." I assured him. "I already started. We can add some other parts and it should be perfect!" I smiled.
We jumped right into the dance, and it sure wasn't perfect at first.
We tried so many things, but nothing worked. We tried many lifts and tricks but nothing seemed to work. After the last time Artem almost dropped me I told him I needed a water break. I sat down and put my head in my hands. "Why isn't anything working!" Artem said pacing around the room. "I just don't understand. We have everything we need just nothing's coming together."
"Babe, just relax we'll figure it out." I said getting up again. "Come on let's go through it slowly." I said turning on the music. We started off slowly, but right when we were going to do a lift I stopped Artem. "Instead of the lift let's try something else." I stopped and thought, but before I could say anything Artem whispered "A kiss."
I have to admit I wouldn't mind that idea at all. "I mean, do you think that would make the dance better?" I asked. "Oh, it would make it a whole lot better." Artem whispered in a seductive voice. I bit my lip nervously and looked at him. "Okay, let's try it." I said as we started the dance again.
This time it was better than perfect it was magical. Every line and motion was beautiful. Once one movement was done it was one movement closer to the kiss. And when it came time for the kiss it almost went by to fast. It was soft but quick. I wanted more because I felt a spark, but I had to finish the dance.
Of corse the rest of the dance was perfect. Anything with Artem is perfect.
When Artem held me in the final pose, our faces inches apart I took a chance. I pressed my lips to his. But there was no kiss back. I could tell Artem was definitely surprised. So I pulled away "I'm sorry." I said and ran out the door. I ran through the hall to the girls bathroom. When I got there I quickly shut it. Panting heavily, I slid down the wall and cried into my hands.
"Jenna.." I heard and looked up. It was my best friend Lindsay. "What happened?!" She asked. I filled her in on it, occasionally stopping tocry.
"Oh babe I'm so sorry." Lindsay said pulling me into a hug. I silently cried onto her shoulder thinking about what just happened. How could I be so stupid. I should've known a guy like Artem would never like me. He is so sweet and amazing, and I probably just ruined any chance of us being together or just being friends again. My train of thoughts was interrupted by Lindsay saying "I'm really sorry but I have to go I have rehearsals."
I pulled away from the hug and nodded as I let her go to rehearsals.
My eyes were still puffy as ran out of the bathroom. I ran to my car and drove home. I had finally decided that I was doing no more rehearsals until camera blocking.
[..]
I stuck to my word and didn't go to any rehearsals until Monday's camera blocking. After I got my makeup done I walked to my dressing room to get changed. When I walked in there was Artem standing there waiting for me. I immediately turned around to leave, but Artem grabbed my arm and pulled me around. "Give me a minute, please Jenna." He pleaded, holding my hand. "Okay.." I replied sitting down on the couch.
Artem sat down next me and said "I just want to talk about what happened on Thursday." I sighed "I'm really sorry. I just I don't know why I did that. After we kissed in the dance, it's just I.. I.. I don't know it's stupid." "It's not stupid." Artem replied.
"I don't really want to talk about it." I said. "Then I will." Artem said. "After the dance, when you kissed me I was kind of shocked at first because I never thought a girl like you would kiss me. I mean I don't deserve a sweet girl like you. Your perfect in every single way, and I have feelings for you but I wasn't sure how strong they were. I didn't want to ask you out and ruin the friendship we have. But now I am completely sure of myself. Jenna Johnson will you be my girlfriend?"
I just sat there in shock. I would never imagine any of those words coming out of Artem's mouth. He is such a sweet guy, but I never thought he would confess his feelings like that to me. "I honestly don't know what to say." I whispered.
"Say yes." Artem said holding my hands. "Yes." I said completely sure of myself. Artem smiled at me and said "You know there is this one part of the dance that we need to rehearse." I knew exactly what part he was talking about. Without waisting anytime I collided my lips to his. I kissed Artem with as much passion as my body could hold. I wrapped my legs around his waist, and deepened the kiss.
I pulled away slowly and stared into his eyes. "I love you." I whispered. "I love you too." Artem smiled and gave me a quick peck on the lips.
I knew Artem was the one for me. I am so glad I feel in love with him, and I know I will more and more everyday.
