As they walked out of the ice cream shop and to the store, Kaylie took his hand in hers and they walked in. Once they got to the store Kaylie started to look around the store at dressed and Griffin walked with her like a lost puppy and a dear in the headlights. He never been in a girl’s store before, only maybe when he was a kid and had to go with his mom but as a teenager he never went into a girls store. “Dang there is a lot of stuff here love. Lot more than guys stoes.”
Kaylie was smiling at all the pretty dresses. She had to pick her top 4. Then Griffin would pick his top two which would be the two she got. “Yeah there is babe.” She giggled as she kept looking and she found two. “Mind holding these while I look for two more?” Once she had the four dresses she liked most. She would try them on for him. Those were the ones she was okay with him seeing before she tried them on. The last two… she didn’t want him to see them really till she tried them on.

Griffin kept walin around with her still like a lost puppy it was kind of cute in a way. She then found 2 dresses and asked if he can hold them while she looks for 2 more. “Sure can.” He said and held out his arms ad she gave him the dresses and he held them and still followed her.

Kaylie smiled as Griffin said sure can and took the two dresses. She kept looking for a moment. “Would you like to go sit and wait? I’ll be that way in just a moment to try them on.” She wanted to find two dresses that he didn’t know about. So, that’s why she asked if he wanted to go sit by the fitting room.
She asked him if he wanted to go wait on the bench by the changing rooms. “Sure love if you want me to. Do you want me to hold onto these 2 dresses as well or give them back to you?” He was not sure why she wanted ho to sit now while she was still shopping but whatever she wanted to do he was fine with and plus she probably had a reason for it.

Kaylie smiled. “Please bring them with you. I’ll get them from you when I come that way.” She smiled as he walked off. Then she found the last two dresses and got a 5th one to hide the other two. She walked over to the fitting rooms and she put her dresses in the room. Then smiled at Griffin “Time to try these on.” She said to him. Then she went in and put one one, and came out to show him. She did this with all four of the dresses.

He just nodded still holding the dresses and walked to the changing room area and sat down with the dresses. He would not be surprised if people looked at him weird but they probably would have known that he was waiting for someone since he was on a bench and holding dresses. He waited patiently.
Kaylie eventually came over and grabbed the 2 dresses he was holding among 2 others it looked like. She then tried on each dress and came out after each one and Griffin was quiet during all the try ons. Once it was time to picked he got up and picked up the 2 dresses he liked best. He liked 3 and 4 they were ice colors and suit her skin color well. He like the whte one to but white ad black you can wear anytime and find them more often than certain colors. “There ya go princess. It is the blue one and the purple dress that I liked best.”
Kaylie smiled as she went back in and put on her original dress. Then she walked back out to Griffin. He said the blue and purple ones were his favorite. She smiled at him “Okay… Sounds good to me. Told you it wouldn’t take that long.” They had been there for maybe 30 minutes. She giggled and then walked to buy the two dresses he liked.

Griffin playfully rolled his eyes at Kaylie’s comment. “yeah yeah yeah, your not going to let me live that down are you?” He laughed. They walked to the cash register and got iin line. When it was Kaylie’s turn she paid for the items and they walked out of the store. “Are you happy with your choics?”

"I don’t know how it happened Zira, but we can’t change what has happened. I’m pretty sure that… somehow the guys ended up in each other’s rooms. I mean think about it… We are identical twins. I know Brooks and I had been drinking last night.” “. . .” Zira took in a deep breath, trying to calm her anger. She wasn’t sure who she should be mad at, but she didn’t want to act out on this emotion. It was becoming too much for her to bear.
Turning her attention back down towards the running water that was half full in the sink. “I just… I don’t know how to process this… I feel so… just so dirty… Knowing that I did it with…” She swallowed, not wanting to say it out loud. “And the worse part of everything about it…” Tears began to fall freely down her eyes. “I actually liked it…” Her hands went to her face as if she was trying to cover up the shame and guilt she was now feeling. "I feel disgusted now that I know it wasn’t with Hyun - Jae . How am I supposed to move forward from this? How am I going to face him?" Her body trembled as she slumped to the floor, crying.
~Skipping Time~
After a few days, the news of Zia and Zira’s little s-x–l mix-up had happened was all over the school’s newspaper. And since then, Zira had kept herself to her room. The finger pointing and laughter was too much for her to handle. Part of her was thankful that it was only winter break, which meant not the whole school would know. But she also knew that when the break was over, everyone would know of what had happened.
Things between the two sisters had become awkward, at least for Zira. She wasn’t entirely sure how to approach her sister after confessing that she had enjoyed her time with her man.
“…” She sat on her bed, legs crossed, scrolling on her laptop, looking at her friends posts back at home. Thankfully word hadn’t spread to them yet. Part of her wanted to reach out to them but she couldn’t find the strength to. She let out a sigh as she looked over at her phone. Her screen lit up just enough for her to see what song was playing, “Mambo No. 5 - Lou Bega”. “. . .” She hated how catchy the beat was for a song that song was basically about flirting with different people.
She glanced around the room. An envelope on the floor in front of the door. This wasn’t something that had always been there. She moved her laptop to the side and got off the bed, walking over to the envelope cautiously as if it were a bomb that could go off at any minute. She crotched down and picked it up and turned it around. Noticing her name on the front of the envelope. She looked at it curiously as she walked back to her bed and sat down. Slowly she opened it up and began to read it silently.
The Letter
I’m so sorry Zira. I feel terrible about what I’ve done. I never wanted to hurt you and I didn’t even know what was happening. All I know is that I went to the wrong room thinking it was yours but it was actually Brook’s room. I feel so dirty and disgusting, but I know you probably feel even worse. You probably don’t believe me. I don’t know where Brooks was during the whole situation, All I know is that he wasn’t in his room and I found out in the morning.
Please meet me at the Xiu Chinese food restaurant so that we can talk face to face.
- Jae
Skipping to much later
She stood in front of her mirror, admiring herself. Her hair was done to the side, hanging over her shoulder , while her outfit felt more revealing than she had wanted it too . But she wasn’t going to let this chance slip her by. Taking in a deep breath, she put on her overside hoodie and walked out. Making her way towards the Xie Chinese Food Restaurant.
~
She stood outside of the building, her nerves getting the best of her. “What am I doing… Just grab the door and stride in there! … Maybe I over dress… Do I have time to go back and change?” She bit her lower lip as the weight was beginning to set in on her. Taking a few steps back, putting space between her and the door. “Maybe this is a bad idea…” She whispered to herself before gently yet firmly taking both of her hands and giving her cheeks a little slap(OOC:pat? I’m not sure what to call it.. sorry)
Gathering what remind of her courage, she walked back towards the door and opened it. Once she was inside, she looked around, feeling a bit lost and nervous. It took her a moment to locate Hyun - Jae. “Oh… My…” She swallowed a bit of saliva back. Hyun - Jae was looking handsome from afar in the suit. She reached her hand up to grab a handful of her hoodie collar. “Okay… I can do this…” She whispered to herself before walking over to him.

A small smile appeared on his face when he read her text telling him the location to meet up at. He followed her text back with an “Sounds good.” text. Before placing his phone down and going back to his gaming.

He stood outside of the building, feeling the vibrations from the music being played within. “Well… She definitely has good taste.” A smirk played on his face as he walked into the building. His hands in his pockets as he walked down the long hallway. His eyes taking in the place as he went. “. . .” He was beginning to regrate taking his roommates advice with his hair. He was originally going to let his hair be as is, but his roommate had told him to slick it back and put a little gel in it, telling him to put in some effort that you are interested.
Being here had made him realize that he should have punched the dude and do his own thing. But now it was too late. He was here and she had already spotted him. His eyes trailed after her as she moved towards him, her movements seemed a little unsteady, but he assumed it was due to her walking without her clutches. She held her hand out to him. “Want to dance?”
He looked at her hand for a moment, before gently taking her hand in his and gently pulled her closer to him as his other hand slide behind her and rested comfortably on her lower back. He lowered his head to her side before whispering near her ear. “I don’t dance.” He pulled away and smirked a little. “But… I’ll make an exception this once.” Followed by a wink.

Kaylie giggled when he asked if she was going to ever let him live it down or not. “Maybe… maybe not.” She giggled as they went to the counter to pay. Once Kaylie paid for the things they walked out the store, and that’s when Griffin asked Kaylie if she was happy with the choices. She smiled and looked at him before speaking. “I love them.” She smiled as she thought about what she could possibly get for him, but nothing was coming to mind in the moment.
Zia listened to her sister. She understood what her sister meant. Especially since she enjoyed being with Hyun-Jae.. However, in the moment she thought it was Brooks. Zia looked at Zira “Look, I think you enjoyed it because you believed in your heart you were giving yourself to Hyun-Jae. So, don’t beat yourself up about it. He loves you and you love him. I promise y’all will get past it.” She said then she thought about Brooks. Her mind started racing with thoughts on how they would get over this. It was so strange, but she also could see how it could happen. She went to her sister and hugged her as she was on the floor crying. Zia slowly rubbed circles on her back.
Later
(Not sure when)
Zia had been held up at the dance studio since the mix-up happened. She spent as much time as possible dancing. Trying to keep her mind off of things. She hadn’t spoken to Brooks yet since it happened. Things with her and Zira were awkward to say the least, but Zia tried to act like everything was normal. Zia decided to text Brooks.
Hey, I’m at the dance studio… Come see me??? I think we should talk about what happened…
She hit send. After she sent the message she set her phone down. She figured that if he truly loved her that he would show up here, and if he didn’t show up… Then maybe he enjoyed being with her sister more then her. She didn’t want things to be awkward between her and Brooks as well as her and Zira. Before this happened they were best friends.

Griffin laughed at her sarcasm. He already knows she will never let him live it down even if she said not. But usually when someone says maybe…maybe not it usally means a yes. So he is prepared for it. “well that is good my love I am happy to hear that you love them. They looked great on you.”
Brooks decided to go walk around the school, but not the school grounds. As he was walking ad listening to music his phone went off and he saw a text came through and it was Zia and she said they needed to talk and she was in the dance studio. He texted back
Ok I am walking around not on school grounds so I will be there in 15 min
He then turned around and started to walk back towards the school.

Kaylie giggled and smiled as they walked and talked. She blushed when he said the dresses looked good on her. “Thanks babe.” She smiled at him. “So, when we get back what do you want to do?”
Zia had turned her phone on do not disturb. Then she put on her music. She stretched some then started dancing. So, she didn’t hear Brooks text. She was in her zone and her world just dancing away.

They walked back towards campus and Kaylie said thanks babe and asked what they wanted to do when they get back. “ooooo babe? Does that mean i’m special?” He was joking but kinda serious to. “Also anytime you know its true though.”
Brooks got to the school and to the dance area. As he was there he saw his woman dancing and did not want to bother her so he just leaned against the door frame watching her and her gracefulness as she danced.
Once she finished her dance he clapped his hands. “Wow you looked good there love. Maybe one day you can teach me how to dance, even if it is like a waltz or something.” He smiled and laughed and walked in more and up to Zia.

Fleur felt shudders up her spine when James gently held her by the small of her back and whispered near her ear. She truly felt like she was in sort of fairytale Usually she would be in some guys car eating a burger and fries meal, or just hanging out in their room watching them play video games or talk about sports with their friends. This time… This time something felt different.
She gently trailed her hand up his shoulder and whispered in his ear. “Well, I can show you how to dance. Follow me.” She grabbed his hand and led him in the middle of the dance floor. Couples wore expensive dresses and suits and there was now a jazz song playing. There was laughter in the air. Fleur was sure that she and James were the youngest people there.
Fleur used his hand to spin herself around and when her back was against his chest, she moved her hips from side to side as she slid down, making her hand caress his chest as she moved down too. When she stood back up, she intertwined her hands with his in a traditional stance as they moved back and forth.
She talked near his ear as her head rested on his shoulder. “I thought this would be a special place for us to go. You see, my parents gave me money as compensation for my injuries after the car accident. So I decided to use it for this fancy restaurant. I hope it’s good enough for you.” Her voice broke at the end. She never felt this vulnerable before. For some reason she wanted to impress him, but at the same time she didn’t feel good enough. Deep down, she was trying to look for a flaw that he might have but anything she could pick out only made her more drawn to him.

Kaylie couldn’t help but giggle. She playfully pushed Griffin. “I think I have showed you that you are special.” She said with her winning smile. Everyone always told her she had a nice smile. Smiling was a big thing in gymnastics. They kept walking back to the school and talking.
Zia was practicing hard. She was in her element. She finished the dance and heard clapping. She turned to see Brooks who spoke to her. He told her she looked good and maybe one day she could teach him how to dance. She was about to walk over to him, but noticed he was walking to her. “Thanks babe. I gotta get my dance right though, and I messed up a few times.” She said with a sigh as she walked over and grabbed her water bottle. She took a gulp. Why was he acting liking nothing happened. It was all of the school that he slept with her sister and she slept with Hyun-Jae. So, how could he come in here like everything is fine. They haven’t even talked since it happened which was like almost a week ago or maybe four days, but to her four days felt a lot longer then it was. “You really want to learn? I could teach you now.” She said with a smile. Maybe that would make talking easier… if she was teaching him how to dance.

His eyes trailed after her hand that gently traveled up his shoulder as she leaned in to whisper into his ear, “Well, I can show you how to dance. Follow me.” He raised an eyebrow as he turned his attention back onto her face. “Lead the way.” She took his hand in hers and lead him to the middle of the dance floor.
Even though there were plenty of people on the dance floor with them, he didn’t seem to mind them, even though they were very in his space. Fleur used his hand to spin herself around and began dancing with her back against his chest. He bit a small portion of his lip as she moved her hips from side to side while she slid down. Her movements and touch sent shock waves throughout his body.
He tilted his head back a little and let out a small breath. Her movements felt slow for a moment while he soaked in the feeling of the sensation. She stood back up while he lowered his head back down to look at her. Their fingers intertwined while they began moving back and forth in a traditional dance.
“I thought this would be a special place for us to go. You see, my parents gave me money as compensation for my injuries after the car accident. So I decided to use it for this fancy restaurant. I hope it’s good enough for you.” He turned his head to look around more at the interior design of the building. The place itself was flashy but that was most likely because of the lights themselves flashing and moving around the walls and surround. “Mmm…” He hummed slightly as if judging the place poorly. Though truth be told, he had no real interest in the place, his interest laid on her and her warmth against his.
“It’s an alright place to take a guy. I’m sure there where…” Turning his head to face her as he leaned closer to her, moving one of his hands to the center of her back and firmly pressing her against him. “better places we could have gone for some fun.” He pulled away slightly, putting some space between them while still holding onto her while they danced.

He nodded his head yes. “Yeah I mean why not? Your good and you enjoy dancing so why not teach me some moves. It doesn’t have to be today though unless you want to. I was just meaning in general, I don’t want to keep you from practicing though especially if you messed up a little.” He said with a shrug. He could be the awkwardness in the room and he knew why they both felt a little awkward right now. Plus he did punch Edward recetly so he knew it was out there on the school blog and everyone saw it. He knew to that Zia wanted to talk so he figured they would be talking about it anytime now.
He just gave her a little smile when she said that she has shown him that he is special. "You did I was just trying to be funny sorry. He looked at the ground a little as they walked. “Did we say of we were going to watch a movie when we get back I forgot? Or chill in one of our rooms.”

Zia smiled as he talked. She knew they would have to talk about the awkwardness. She had heard about how he punched the guy in the face… but she wasn’t sure why Brooks did that. She assumed it had something to do with the mix-up. She also heard form sources about what he said to the guy at the party. Which she wasn’t happy about that, but she also knew it was a guy thing. “I still have a week to get it right. So, two mess ups isn’t bad, and they weren’t big mess ups… So, I can teach you to dance and we can talk while we do it.” She said with a smile as she put her water bottle down. She then grabbed his hands and pulled him to the middle of the floor. “What kind of dancing do you want to learn? slow? hip hop? line dancing? ballet? or like the tango and that?” She said with a smile.
