I look up into his face, we are both silent for a second, but then we both crack up. I was just laughing nervously, hoping he was laughing with me and not at me. He helps me back up to my feet, "You okay Alex?"
"Yeah, I'm fine"
"Well, you should probably head back over with the other girls, looks like practice is about to start."
"hehe.... okay, bye"
Wow..... Good going me, How's that for a first impression fall into the guys arms, I really need to be less awkward....
I join the rest of the troupe and we start learning the beginning to our routine, before I know it, morning practice is over. It's 7:30 and time for school, great......
I'm just about to walk out the doors to my car when Mrs. Amy runs over to me, "Hey Alex, I really need to stay and work on drawing out the routine. I know you go to Brickhills, would it be too much to ask you to drive Wayne to school? He still needs to get his license here."
I'm a bit hesitant, but what can I do, it's my dance instructor, "Okay" I say.
"Wayne, come over here dear, Alex is going to drive you to school," Mrs. Amy calls across the studio.
ugh... thanks Mrs. Amy..... great way to help my first impression on your nephew, for crying out loud, the more I look at him the cuter he gets, this is going to be one awkward car ride.
Wayne picks up his guitar and walks over to me.
"Don't you have a backpack, we are going to school?" I ask.
"Oh, yeah, uh, since I don't have any books yet, I don't have a backpack."
"Well okay then, let's go"
"Thank you again Alex" Mrs Amy calls out as we leave the studio.
Wayne hops in my car and we head towards school. Like I thought, the car ride is awkward, and I mean, REALLY awkward. We don't say much of anything to each other. Well, if I'm going to talk to him, this would be as good of a time as any, I had been asking for something new in my life, and her it is, sitting right next to me.
"Hello" I say shyly.
