I pull up to the dance studio and check the address. There's no sign, but I think I'm at the right place. My fiance isn't here yet, but she's always late. She wants me to learn to dance before our wedding. I don't see the big deal.
A man was sitting at the front desk staring at a computer screen. His face lights up in greeting as I arrive.
"Ah! You must be Kyle, my 6:00 lesson." He reaches his hand out to shake mine. "I'm Antonio, I'll be your instructor." He's tanned and muscular and has a firm handshake. As he stands he's a little shorter than me.
"My fiance, Jessica, will be here soon." I motion to the door that he's now locking.
"No, she won't." He said. "She wanted your first lesson to be solo so you could learn some basics so you won't step on her toes. This is technically after hours and I'm not even charging you for this, I'm just doing it as a favor for Jessica because she's so darn cute." He laughed at the shocked look on my face. Did he just call my fiance cute? Am I gonna have to fight this guy? He put his hand on my arm. "Don't worry, I'm not moving in on your girl, I'd be more likely to try to move in on you." He winked and walked into the studio.
He looks me up and down. "Go ahead and change now."
"Change what?" I look down at my business suit. I just came from work.
"You can't dance in that?" He laughed. "It's already 70 degrees in here and it's gonna get real steamy in here." He had shorts and tight tank top on. It was a little hot in here now that he mentioned it.
