December arrives. And the only great thing about this month is Christmas. Forgetting their personal issues, people come together and celebrate this holy festival. Greatest of all, the Christmas celebration of the Central High School is one of the biggest functions in LA. The students and teachers enjoy this party together. 

The Principal, Mr. Winsley conducts a contest every year on Christmas. Every girl gets to chose a boy and then perform in front of the audience. The winning couple gets crowned as the kings and queens of the high school. 

This year, the students cheered each other as Mr. Winsley announced the Christmas Party and the contest. Students get to wear the clothes they like and dance together. The contest is open for everyone from the high school.

Samantha turns to Mack as Mr. Winsley announces. She smiles and stares at Mack. Mack shares some funny expressions as Sam laughs out loud.

On the other hand, Joe keeps staring at Samantha but she doesn't even take a glimpse of it. She had already seen him struggling to make proper eye contact and ignores him as much as she can.

Amanda sees Joe, struggling hard enough for Sam helplessly but still feels sad as she can't help him. She approaches towards him

"Joe?" Amy asks, "I know what you're staring at but, dear, it's of no use."

"Staring?" Joe replies, trying to stop his tears, "No.. I'm not staring at anyone. I was just..um.."

"I can understand you well Joe. Don't you hide anything from me."

"Well," Joe starts, "You know very well how much I like her. But still, why doesn't she understand my feelings?"

"Joe dear," Amy tries to slow him down, "I don't know exactly what has happened to her and why she's trying to do such a thing."

"I know why this is happening. I am a nerd and nobody likes me for that. I might be good in studies and games but I'm not good-looking or tall, or strong enough. That is a reason why I fail to impress her every time."

"Joe, don't underestimate yourself. You need not be strong to impress someone. Mack is a jerk and a complete bully material. He is not at all worthy of her. The only thing is she doesn't understand it well."

"Hmm.."

"Hey, by the way, would you like to dance with me in that contest? Its's real fun. You'd surely enjoy it!"

"Dance? I'm not good with that dance thing. I can't even move my body the way I want."

"Relax Joe, I'll help you out with that." 

"Okay, see you on the eve then?"

"Yeah I'll be waiting for you!"

'Joe' and 'dance' were like two ends of a stick. Joe was such a bad dancer. On the other hand, Amy was a professional performer. How would this couple perform together?
