Little Alexis peaked around the door. She had heard music and gone to investigate. She eventually found he room. Inside was seven year old Patrick Fernando. He was two years older than her, but their fathers were both government officials, and they were often stuck at boring meetings with nothing to do. So they became fast friends. Alexis was always interested in what Patrick was doing, and this was no exception. He was moving around to the music, his arms in a peculiar position, his eyes closed. Wasting no time, she skipped over to him. “Hi Patrick!” she said cheerfully.
“H-hi, Alexis,” He stuttered, embarrassed.
“Whatcha doing?” she asked.
He turned off the music. “I’m dancing.” He blushed slightly.
“Cool!” she said enthusiastically, swaying from side to side. She wanted to ask him something.
“Yes Alexis?” he prompted.
“Well,” She stretched out the word, “I was wondering… would you teach me how to dance like that?” she asked.
“Sure.” Patrick said. Over the next half an hour, he taught her how to stand, what to do with her hands, and finally the steps, kindly correcting her along the way. She was a surprisingly fast learner.

Their father’s smiled at each other when they found the pair. Hey stepped outside the room and knocked on the door. “Come in!” Alexis called.
“There you are! Patrick’s dad exclaimed.”
“What were you guys doing in here?” Alexis’s dad asked. Patrick turned slightly pink and Alexis giggled.
“Patrick was teaching me how to dance.” She said happily.
“That was very nice of Patrick.” Patrick turned a little redder. “Did you thank him?”Her dad asked.
“Thank you Patrick!” she said and hugged him. Both dads chuckled at Patrick’s face, which was the same shade as a ripe tomato as her tentatively hugged her back. Alexis’s dad came to his rescue.
“Come on baby girl, we got to go!” he said as he swung her up and into his arms. “Ok daddy.” She giggled and wrapped her arms around his neck as he carried her out.
Based on the song, The Lonely by Christina Perry (I think I spelt that right!)
It probably doesn't make sense just yet... It probably will by the third chapter, but only if you just listen to the chorus.
I told you I may be submitting again!
