night?”
     
    “I’m
a dance student.  I don’t know if I’d call it a passion but it’s
definitely something that I really enjoy doing.  As a matter of fact, as
we speak, a handsome former stranger is dropping me off at a very important
audition.”
     
    “Thanks
for the compliment.”
     
    “Not
you!  I was talking about your driver, but you’ll pass.”
     
    “Funny. 
I’ll pass the message along to him for sure.  Dance is nice though. 
I’ve never been coordinated enough to be able to dance too well.  Maybe I
can get you to give me a lesson some time.”
     
    She
was no fool.  She’d gotten that line from many of guys before but none of
them were him at all.  He certainly had the build to be a good dancer so
she wouldn’t be surprised if he was much better than he let on.  Of
course, if he was serious then his timing couldn’t be better. 
     
    “ Well Mr. Chatham, it’s funny you say that.  I was
actually hoping to start giving dance lessons as a way to help cover some of
the costs of school anyway.  Schools that focus on the arts can actually
be as expensive as a regular college you know, so I’ve got a lot of lessons to
give.  We will just have to set something up in the future.”
     
    “In
that case, I am going to need your number.”
     
    I
can’t believe this.  If he isn’t serious about the dance lessons, then he
likes me and if he is serious about the dance lessons, then I can start making
some extra money.  Win-win for me!
     
    She
was ready to rattle her number off for him when he reached into his pocket and
before he could do anything, it started to ring.  Chelsea saw him frown
when he looked at her.   
     
    “I
have to take this call.  One second.”
     
    Chelsea
watched as he spoke to the person on the other end of the line.  
     
    “Hello
. . .  Yes I know that I’m late.  Things
happened this morning but tell my father that I’m not more than five minutes
away.  Thanks.  Oh, before you go, did you get the overseas account
profile for Mr. Lemarius ? . . . I understand.
 Keep trying then and when you get through to him call me and let me
know.  It’s paramount that we have it . . . Uh huh . . . Exactly . . .”
     
    Chelsea
already knew that they had reached her stop right before he got the phone
call.  She had to go and soon.  She looked down at the time on her
phone, hoping he would get the hint.  Apparently he did but couldn’t stop
what he was doing as he looked up from his phone and put up his index finger
asking her to wait one more minute.  Unfortunately for her, it was a
minute she didn’t have to spare.  It was a miracle that she’d made it just
in time but if she didn’t run inside right now, it would all be for naught. 
     
    She
was already almost certain that Denard was probably freaking
out right now as it was.  She might not always care about her chances at
the school but for Denard , it was something that he
was in love with and she couldn’t let him down if she could avoid it.  She
was a junior but it was his last chance to make an impression before he
graduated.   She didn’t have a choice in the matter.  
Maybe she’d regret it later but she took a deep breath, pulled her bag onto her
shoulder, and opened the limo door to reintroduce herself to the outside elements
again.  Seconds later she jumped out of the limo, turning back to the car
as she hurried towards the building. 
     
    “Thank
you so much for the lift Ryder.  You’re a life saver but I really have to
go.”
     
    She
could barely hear him shouting to her from the car.
     
    “. .
. your number!”
     
    I
know.  Maybe that’s good.  A guy doesn’t get driven around in a limo
on a regular unless phone calls like that are how his life always is.  He
wouldn’t have had time for me anyway. 
     
    That
was what she was telling herself but in the pit of her stomach, she could feel
the uneasiness.  All she could think was that it was less about the
showcase
