I'm so sore!

Po laughs as well.

DJ:

Alright! Time for a fun one! Lets

do a swing dance! Avery and

Jonathan are gonna lead.

Po smiles at the mention of Avery. He watches as she and

Jonathan take the floor.

Avery notices Po and smiles. He waves slightly. Chuckie

chuckles.

CHUCKIE:

I was wondering why you came to the

dance.

Po opens his mouth to say something back, then stops. He

smiles a little bit.

PO:

Well, We all have our motivations.

The music starts. It starts slow, but not for long. The music

is something familiar, something that all people have heard

at some point.

The dance is a form of the Balboa Swing Dance. Lots of moving

of the feet. There is no superior in the dance, male and

female are together. They move across the floor quickly.

Some other couples dance around near them, but none of them

have the skill set that Jonathan and Avery have.

Especially Avery. She is having fun too, smiling and

laughing. Their shoes squeak against the gym floor.

Soon, most of the people are dancing around them, in

different types and personal variations to the song.

The song slowly starts to fade out into another pop song, and

Jonathan and Avery slowly disappear.

Chuckie and Po are sitting down, backs against the wall.

They've moved away from the speaker, so they can talk now.

CHUCKIE:

This is nice.

PO:

Sitting around watching people

dance?

CHUCKIE:

Sitting here talking to you. I'm

tired dude. It's only been like two

hours.

PO:

Well, you danced with like, six

girls.

Chuckie smiles, dazed.

PO (CONT’D)

Any of 'em have that "giiirlfriend"

potential?

Chuckie laughs.

CHUCKIE:

No. Just gotta wait for the next

slow song. Then the perfect option

will appear.

PO:

I bet that

(makes air quotes)

The perfect option

(Without air quotes)

Will like how you're discussing her

like a dog.

Chuckie glares at him.

CHUCKIE:

You know I'm against that.

Po nods, and smiles. They sit in silence for a moment.

The music slows down.

Chuckie stands up, and helps Po up.

CHUCKIE (CONT’D)

See you after this song.

He winks.

PO:

Chuckie, don't wink at me. It's

creepy as hell.

Chuckie turns. Then stops. Looks back to Po.

CHUCKIE:

Hey.

PO:

Yeah?

CHUCKIE:

Go ask Avery to dance.

Before Po says anything, Chuckie rushes off before the song

begins.

Po finds Avery near the at the concession table.. He watches
