"Max, you can't dance," Isabel said, incredulous.
It was lunchtime, and Maria and Max had made the announcement to the
entire group, Kyle and Tess included.
"Neither can you, Maria," Michael agreed.
Maria huffed, and Max scowled. "How would you know?" She snapped.
"We can show you," Max told them.
"Oh, this will be funny," Michael whispered to Isabel as they walked into
the gym, where Mrs. Mackenzie had already set up her own boom box for them to
practice. She'd even bought a copy of Dirty Dancing CD for them, and gotten
them out of their third period classes until the contest.
"Number one?" Max asked her, as the others made themselves comfortable.
"Yep," Maria nodded, and they stood in front of each other in the same
position as the night before, swaying slightly and then bursting into dance
as it became faster. The world disappeared, and their was only them and the music, and they were singing again, lost in the song.
"Oh my God," Isabel whispered to Liz. "I never even knew."
The other girl was in awe, staring at her ex as he danced with her best
friend. It hurt, but she had to say it. "They're perfect together."
"When did this happen?" Alex wondered.
"Max can sing, too?" Tess asked. "And you guys didn't know?"
"Evans just goes from one of my woman to another," Kyle muttered, but he
was smiling. "Now he's getting in on my soon-to-be step sister!"
"Wow," Michael said.
The music ended with Max holding Maria in a dip, and they slowly stood,
coming out of their trance.
"Told you so," Maria smirked at her friends. Max's smug look mirrored her
own.
"Wow," Michael said again.
