(Bailey's Dance)

(Bailey's Basement Dance Studio)

*Bailey\Pup*

  I was dancing to my music not paying attention to anything but when my CD cut off I was started by clapping and I jerked around to see Deke leaning against the doorframe.

  "It been a long time since I've seen you dance close up," he said and I blushed before rushing over to my stereo and turning it off.

  "I thought you were still upstairs," I said.

  "I finished the dishes and wanted to see what you were doing," he said coming up beside me and I watched as he hooked his phone up to the Bluetooth and pressing something on his phone before pulling me to the room and I gasped when the song started playing and he started leading me in a simple slow two-step and I smiled remembering when we used to do this all the time.

  "Not bad," I pointed out after the song ended. "But it needs a bit of work."

  "Says the five-time dance champion," he said and I giggled.

  "Suck it up crybaby," I said before squealing when he growled and I dashed up the stairs and I made it to the living room before Deke grabbed me around my waist and hauled me into his chest. 

  "Do you yield?" he asked playfully.

  "Never," I yelled before screaming when he tossed me on the couch and started tickling me. "NO! STOP! DEKE!"

  "Do you yield?" 

  "I yield," I laughed as he finally stopped and I caught my breath. "No fair using my weakness against me."

  "Not my fault you're ticklish everywhere," he said shrugging.

  "Meanie," I pouted before looking at the clock and gasping at the time. "Good lord it's already eleven-thirty."

  "Got a hot date?" Deke asked jokingly.

  "No," I smiled. "But I do have a long day tomorrow."

  "Really? What are you doing tomorrow?"

  "I have to go shopping," I said with a sigh. "I haven't really worked since I had Zita and all my clothes are too small and Zita needs a few things."

  "Can I tag along?" he asked and I looked at him confused. "What?"

  "You hate going shopping," I said and he shrugged. "If you want then sure you can come."

  "I'll pick you two up around nine," he said and I nodded following him to the door and he kissed my cheek before going to his bike and driving off.

  After locking the door and turning all the lights off I headed upstairs and peeked into Jonas's room to see him asleep with Zita on his chest and Barbie Spy Squad playing on the TV, shaking my head I quickly and quietly set to straightening up the room a bit by setting his laptop on the desk and turning the TV off before grabbing my daughter and going to the nursery where I laid her in her crib before going to my room and slipping into my pj's can climbing into bed and snuggling my body pillow silently wishing I had something else to cuddle with.
