We Got the Moves, Babeh

[RJ Jay]

Oh yeah, RJ totally had this. He heard the pulsing music blaring from overhead and sauntered to the beat. His head bobbed in perfect time, and he looked around the club for a bit, careful to just sort of skim over people. It wouldn’t do to accidentally imitate some scrub when he’d spent all those hours watching professionals on YouTube and stuff.

“You all ready for this?” RJ asked, holding his arms out and circling. “I’ma’bout to show all you mothers what it’s like when someone really breaks it down,” he nodded, grinning fiercely. He turned to the nearest hottie, extending a hand in the traditional gun shape and giving it a little “tsch” and cocking it as if it fired. He gave a guy near her a “yeah, that’s right” look before he began moving.

RJ’s motions were smooth, perfectly practiced and matching the music almost perfectly. He’d been waiting for a song he’d specifically heard and all, and now he let his body carry through the rhythm. The music’s pounding base made his hips roll, and he seemed to include a fair amount of hip thrusts in his movements. His legs and arms still knew what to do though. He’d extend a leg out, pulse to the beat for a moment, nodding along, then swirl, moving about and dancing in perfect time. He turned a twirl into a smooth motion, dropping down and flipping about before hopping right back up. His outer dress shirt flew up, baring a pair of rippling abs barely contained in a black muscle shirt. RJ held the position for a while, winking at another particularly attractive honey before he spun up.

“Alright, now I’m gonna show you how you dance with your honies, bros,” he said, looking around. He pointed, “You there, you look hot enough to be seen with RJ. Come on up sweet thang, be my boo for the night,” he winked and gestured in his most seductive manner, positive that he’d just reeled another one in.

Serene walked into the Pulse. It was her first time coming since she joined bellefonte nearly two years ago. Now she was thinking that might not have been a good idea. The music might distract her from the emotions shouting in her head. As she took a few steps in though, she realized her assumption was wrong. The loud music hit her, and then the emotions hit her. All the people's emotions clashed together in her mind, it was awful.

She was about to leave when she saw someone in the center of the dance floor. He was actually dancing pretty well. Serene remember seeing him somewhere on campus before. She had forgotten where though. She joined the circle around him, watching him. He was excited and quite arrogant she could tell from his emotions. Then he went and took of his dress shirt, revealing huge muscles. He was actually quite cute. She decided.

Then he came up to her. He came to her and asked her to dance with him. It was quite awkward as she had just stepped foot into the club a few minutes ago. Serene also though she couldn't possibly dance. Sure, she went to a few parties before her powers showed, but nothing much. The emotions swirling in her head were already causing a headache. "Uh, um, no thanks." she stuttered out in her British accent from all those years ago, a scared look on her face.

[RJ Jay]

RJ just grinned as the girl didn't immediately agree to it. She stuttered it out in what sounded sort of like a British accent of some kind, which probably meant she was one of the fly honies here for the whole IMAC thing. This honey was about to meet her Winnie-the-Pooh, that was for sure.

RJ added a wink to the grin, sauntered forward, matching his movements to the beat, letting his body jerk a few times. "You don't gotta worry none, babe," he said, adding another spin, tugging at the outer shirt a while before ending with another swaggering grin. "I'm good enough to make both of us look good. You just gotta move to match, and you'll be almost as smoking as me."

The moment he finished speaking, RJ added another slide, coming to stand directly next to the girl. He smiled again, showing just a glint of teeth as he let his body roll one last time, ending with a hand extended to the girl yet again.

[Deleted]

This boy. This conversation. This was getting really weird. Plus the staggering headache in the background was really bugging her. What the bloody hell was going on? Serene could just hear her mother in her mind telling her off for dancing with someone she doesn't know at all, and for saying bloody hell.

He was dancing to the beat though, and he was dancing well actually. The way he was talking though... lets just say Serena was kind of creeped out and kind of charmed at the same time. The emotions radiating from him strongly were starting to affect her.

She tried to resist, "Uh um," she stuttered just before the emotions from around her got the best of her. Her back straightened and a smile brightened her face as her own emotions were warped. "Sure, why not." She said happily and she reached out and took the offering hand.

In the back of her mind she though, WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING? Coming here was a worse idea than I thought.

(sorry its short. I wasn't exactcly sure what to write. But serene is in party mode now. )

[RJ Jay]

Ha, RJ so knew that he'd convince her soon enough. No girl out there could resist him, particularly when he put his moves into play. He could already hear the music in the club switching over to a recent pop/dance number that he could certainly dance to, especially with a willing enough partner. She took his hand, and RJ smiled, his eyes practically flashing. He raised the hand up, giving the girl a few spins to the beat, backing up several times to get back into the area he'd cleared a few moments before.

The spins would eventually end with RJ pulling her close to him, practically pressing himself against her. He bounced his brows for a moment before adjusting his hands, moving them down to grab. "Just move with it," he instructed, using his hands and hips to help guide her to the music. He knew he could definitely guide her, but he also knew he needed to learn how good she was at moving. Who knew: she could be totally awesome at this and even show him a few moves... which he could then perfectly mimic and steal.

[Deleted]

Serene felt she would fail at first. She hadn't really danced before. It was really fun though. With all the exhilarating emotions from others in her head it really helped her courage. Even though she still didn't really want to dance, she couldn't help it any more. He would spin her around and it was wonderful. Then he pulled Serene close to him. She felt really awkward again. She'd never been this close to a boy before except for her dad. She didn't want to do this but she felt like a slave to the emotions that drifted into her head.

Then he grabbed her waist. She was about to move away when he instructed her. Then she thought to herself, Well, one more dance couldn't do much harm. Can't it? She followed in his wake. Serene wished to be as good as a dancer as him. She still felt hopeless about dancing, but this was getting to be kind of fun. She followed his movements, and she hoped she did well enough. Then she thought, Well enough? Why am I hoping I did well enough? Enough for WHAT?


(sorry it's short again.)

[RJ Jay]

Okay, so she clearly didn't have a bunch of smooth moves or anything, but she also just as clearly had good control and could at least follow RJ. Plus, she looked all breathless and dizzy and girls always looked kinda hot when they looked like that: reminded RJ of some more fun activities. So he shifted, looking into her eyes, nodding slightly, indicating that he was about to start moving.

Again using his hands and hips to guide, RJ began dancing with Serene, flowing to the music. He opted away from the sexier dance moves: hand rubbing and grinding and shifting clothes and all, since he could tell that she'd probably freak out major. Instead he let the music guide them, purposefully paying attention to the primal beat. For now, it was more a matter of stepping forward and moving back, getting her used to following his lead and the rhythm. RJ waited a few beats, again meeting her gaze, before pulling away, running a hand over her shoulder as he did, keeping track while he moved, eventually parting enough to do another little spin of his own before coming back, moving behind her this time.

{don't worry; they should be short; it's dancing and we both gotta write the movements. just worry about making the post long enough to respond to and you'll keep being fine }

[Deleted]

Serene was glad he wasn't doing some of the moves he had done early. With the hip thrusts and all, instead he was moving with her to a slow rhythm. It was very relaxing actually. She was feeling much calmer about all this now. Then his gaze met hers. I don't even know this guy's name. Curse stupid emotions. Why'd she need to be an Empath. Having to copy other's strong emotions. This was awful. All she wanted to do was retreat to a little cubywhole or whatever to do her homework and to be left alone, but she couldn't.

A shiver went down her spine as his hand rested on her shoulder. Then he pulled away and did a small spin. Every time their gazes met Serene felt weird inside, as if there were a million butterflies having a party in there. As they danced slowly together Serene gazed him in the eyes, "We're dancing." she whispered in her soft British accent, "And I don't even know your name."

[RJ Jay]

Yes, they certainly were dancing. RJ moved around behind her. He wanted to run her hands along his side, but settled again for putting them just on her hips, even waiting a moment to make sure that she was still comfortable with that. Then he let his hands and hips guide them into swaying with the music, not grinding, of course, but certainly moving along.

"Our bodies are doing the talking," he said, adding a wink, "and I don't need a name to know you're super sexy right now," he smiled and moved to extend a leg, again guiding her, this time to gently bring their bodies down, supporting their weight on one of his legs, using a drop in the music for timing. When it popped back up, RJ pulled the girl around, moving so they faced each other again, his glinting eyes once more looking into hers, that smile as present as ever.

[Deleted]

Serene let the boy guide her around the dancefloor. His hands rested on her hips. It sent a soft shiver through her body. Right before he started moving Serene though, Oh bloody hell. Is he going to grind? Her body tensed up for a moment but then she realized they were just swaying to the soft tune of the music which drifted through the club. Then he said something and Serene blushed a deep shade of red with embarrassment.

No one had called her sexy before. It wasn't as weird as she thought it would be. It just sent another shiver down her spine. He gently guided her body down to lean on his. His leg supporting both of them. They popped back up which startled Serene. The boy pulled her around and she looked into his eyes. They glinted. Then the music changed to something for exciting. Oh no. she thought before the emotions around her went wild. It filled her up and she couldn't control it.

A grin passed over her face and she tried to pull the boy in a wild intricate dance for two which went along with the exciting music that played nearby. The glint was in her eyes now. She hated every second of it.

[RJ Jay]

RJ recognized the shivering and all: it made him grin, but he just moved them forward, letting the music move things along. Hey, it even looked like she had that glint in her eyes too. Clearly she was falling for his charms, as RJ knew she would. Though instead of saying so, he simply pulled her along, again walking backward, this time working so that she would step with him, before gliding a hand down her body and adding another dip and spin to the music.

"See," he said as he pulled her back up, spinning her so that she faced him. RJ kept his hand on the small of her back, clearly supporting her, while the other hand extended back for balance. "Told you I'd make you look good," he added another wink and grinned as wide as ever.

[Deleted]

Trapped inside her own head. That's how Serene felt. The emotions from everyone around her wouldn't let her do what she wanted to do. Which was run away screaming. Then when RJ slid a hand down her body, this time she didn't shiver. She looked him in the eye as he pulled her along, adding dips and spins to the music. Now he was in the lead. As he pulled her back up from another dip he left his hand on the small of her back, supporting her.

He winked at her and grinned again. He was actually quite handsome. "Are you sure about that?" Serene laughed, "Because I'm pretty sure I'm the one making you look good." she grinned back at him.

[RJ Jay]

Ah, he got eye contact now. She must be getting comfortable to him, or at least used to his moving with her. RJ bet he could probably amp things up a little more, but he'd wait a bit to see. She was still laughing and smiling and looking just a little out of it, after all. For now, RJ pulled her against him to roll their bodies once more, using his hips to guide.

As he moved, he smirked at her: "I always look good," he assured her, adding a wink, "but you're making me look a lot better," and he moved again, bringing her around with him. He did a few spins, rolling on his heels, pulling her back with him to spin in time, before coming around. The song was nearing its end by now, so RJ knew he'd have to rev it up for a big finish.

[Deleted]

Serene could tell the song was ending. Her rational thoughts felt good knowing there was a chance to escape the emotions from those around her. She needed to leave soon. Serene felt like she would pass out from the headache she was getting and the emotions flooding her mind. The boy rolled their bodies and led her into another dance. She followed along, trying to keep pace. This was exhilarating but she hated it.

Her mind didn't laugh but her body did. She hated when stuff like this happened. When her father was grouchy when her powers were revealed she was grouchy, for a while. This was like then. RJ spinner a few times and rolled on his heels.

Serene really couldn't wait until this was over.

[RJ Jay]

The song continued, and RJ directed the pretty blonde along with it, still moving, still letting his hips and feet carry them through the melody and beat. The motions came easy to him, as easy as that smile. He could see that she was getting into it too, which just made it all the better.

Still, RJ figured he should at least give her a few moments to catch her breath. So he spun her right in time with the song, moving a few times before snapping her close right at the end of the song, making the pull hit the beat. RJ was breathing a little heavy, but looked none the worse for wear. He gave his partner a wink.

"See, told you," he said confidently, that smile returning. "Want me to get you a drink now? Anything you want," he tilted his head slightly to the bar. He already had her dizzy and lightheaded, so he figured he might as well keep going. After all, not like he had anyone else to make out with, at least at the moment.
