Chapter 41 The Last Dance

Mr. Jerry Smith arrived fifteen minutes before the practice ended. Elle introduced the some of the boys to her Dad. "I'm glad you all made it today, boys."Mr. Jerry Smith said, smiling at them. "How's it going,Michelle?" Mr. Jerry Smith asked as she turned to her. "Everything's going well, Sir. They're all cooperative. Miss Elle is a great dancer." Miss Michelle Ryans responded, smiling. "Yes, she is, Michelle. Thank you. So is it my turn now?" Mr. Jerry Smith asked, smiling broadly. "Andrew, you take the lead first so I'll know how to do it." He commanded him. "Okay, Uncle Jerry. Elle," Andrew said, offering his hand for a dance. Miss Michelle Ryans played the song again, Beautiful Soul, My Girl, True Colors and You're Beautiful in a row. Elle chose those songs, her favorites. "It's your turn, Sir." Miss Michelle Ryans reminded him. Mr. Jerry Smith stood up and said, "My beautiful princess." Elle smiled at her Dad. They danced well. She guided him the dance steps. Her Dad was not really good in dancing but they finished it good right on the dot. "Our final practice will be next Saturday, Michelle. Same time and place, boys." Mr.Jerry Smith reminded them. They agreed. "Thank you very much for all your time and efforts, boys. Michelle, thank you." Mr. Jerry Smith said, shaking her hand. "It's my pleasure, Sir." Miss Michelle Ryans replied, smiling. "We are going now, Uncle Jerry." Mike Miles said. "Go home straight, boys. And James Fisher, I wanna talk to you. Elle, Andrew, we'll just be in my office."Mr. Jerry Smith said. "Okay, Dad. Andrew and I will just stay here." Elle replied, smiling at her Dad to James.

Andrew and Elle remained in the Music room. They talked and laughed together. He came closer to her while they sat on the couch. "Dad's might see us, Drew. Control that emotion." Elle suddenly said. But Andrew was stubborn. He stood up and pulled her on the corner side of the room so nobody could see them. He held her face. He kissed her gently and passionately on her lips then he said after the kiss, "I really, really love you, Elle, so much!" "I know that, Drew. I love you too." Elle said. The room was quiet until someone knocked. Elle walked towards the door and saw James outside.
