'Fighting Jason Derulo with Jason Derulo'

I fall onto the cold, mahogany floor, exhausted. Serena and I have been working on a routine since 7 this morning, and I'm just getting the hang of it.

It's now 5 in the evening.

"Savs get up, you've nearly perfected it," Serena says reassuringly, making me groan. I close my eyes, letting fatigue wash over. A sharp pain emerges on my sides as I feel Serena's foot ram into my ribs.

"Oww bitch that's gonna bruise," I hiss getting up, wincing in pain.

The door suddenly flies open, Kelsey and Luna walking through it. Luna frowns "She's still not got the hang of it, has she?"

"She has, but she's not putting the anger and other emotions in, do you know your bit?" Serena questions Luna, referring to her role in the dance. Luna nods before her face morphs into an intimidating, angry face.

An angry face that looks like Hunters.

"Do you honestly want my brother to have the last word? Cos if you do I'm gonna never hear the end of it, so you better work that tiny little ass of yours or I'll whoop it myself," Luna pep talks me, a sense of shock took over my body at her words.

She was right, I am not gonna let Hunter Sanchez have the last word.
Ever.
A new sense of determination washes over me "You're right, let's take it from the top!"

"That's my best friend," Kelsey give me a massive grin before starting the music so we could take it from the top.

"Here, I got you your fave," Kelsey passes me a mocha frappe, god I love her.

Serena sits on the floor "Let's take five shall we?"

I nod, sitting on the bench after grabbing my phone. I scroll through Instagram when a follow request pops up. I click onto it and raise both eyebrows at the request. I continue staring at the screen :

@hunter.sanchez want to follow you

I click accept before going onto his profile. I roll my eyes at his profile picture which was a shirtless snap of him at the beach with a massive smirk on his face, staring at the ocean. I become shocked as I see the number of followers he has, 25K.

Like how the fuck.

I only had a mere 12K but then again half of his followers are girls. He had nothing in his bio, secretive just like him. His account was private so I request to follow him before going of Instagram and onto Snapchat. Like Instagram, I had a friend request from none other than Hunter. I accept it before deciding to post something on my story.

I jump up from my seat, heading towards where Luna was sitting. She looks at my phone before rolling her eyes with a smirk on her face. She motions me to come sit next to her. I plop down next to her, the front facing camera toward our faces.

I start filming as I lay my head on Luna's shoulder whining at the camera with a pout "I'm so tired,"

Luna gives a mock pout resting her head on mine. Serena and Kelsey decide they want to be in it to so they wriggle on to our laps causing us to groan in pain. They start making funny faces and posing at the camera as me and Luna laugh. I stop filming and swipe a L.A filter onto the snap before sending it to my story.

"How does your brother have 25k on Insta?" I ask Luna as Kelsey and Serena look curiously at her as well.

Luna gives a little smile, shrugging her shoulders "He has his ways". I sigh knowing Luna wasn't going to elaborate. Instead of questioning her further, I go distracted by a message I got from Hunter on Snapchat, replying to my story.

where are you guys?

places, places, why do you care?

can't a guy be curious

you'll see soon

I send the message, not wanting him to catch on to what I was doing.

btw, love your insta feed ;)

I smirk, knowing he was referring to my countless song covers and some other pictures of me.

stalker

wd prefer some bikini pics tho

I scoff, turning off my phone and concentrating on the dance again.

I don't let people I dislike have the last word, especially ones with the name, Hunter Sanchez.

Hunter Sanchez, you won't know what hit that pretty little face of yours.

________
The girls and I step out of Lacey's dance studio.

Serena has been dancing here since she was 3 and I did as well until the age of 14. My Mom was close with Miss Lacey, the owner of the studio. She loves Serena and her dancing, Serena is her favourite student. She always tries to convince me to come back whenever she sees me but she understands music is my main passion.

We say goodbye to Luna before I get into the backseat of the car when I hear my phone ping. Its was from Brett,

Hey beautiful

A smile erupts on my face.

"Who you smiling at Savs?" Kelsey asks with a smirk.
I shield my phone away from her curious glances towards my phone screen "None of your business,"

"Must be someone important if you're blushing," She gives me a knowing look, making me blush deeper.

hey Brett

I was thinking...

must be dangerous

ha ha very funny

do you wanna come round to mine tmrw to do the project?

yeah sure, is 5 ok?

i'd see your pretty face any time bonita, but 5 works ;)

I read the last text in confusion,

Since when did Brett Spanish?

The thought left my had as quickly as it came in when Kelsey grabs my phone out my hand scrolling through the texts.

"Oooh Brett, get some Savs," Kelsey winks at me

"It's nothing, we're just meeting up to do a project," I huff.

"I don't think so, he does call you beautiful," Serena chimes in her eyes wavering from the road for a moment to look at me. He called me bonita as well.

Serena parks the car before we run into the house.

"FAM I'M HOME!!!" I shout into the quiet house.

"Savannah shut the fuck up, Harper's sleeping," Ryder says, swearing.

I stick my tongue out "Someone had a bad day at work,"

"He did, he has an audition coming up," Avery emerges from the kitchen, wrapping her arms around Ryders neck. I love Ryder and Avery's relationship, I remember the days Ryder had a massive crush on her and the amount of times she rejected him before she finally fell in love with him. Now look at them, married, have a whole life together and an adorable daughter. I wish I could have a relationship like them one day.

"Dude you're gonna get that role," Serena says reassuringly to my brother. Ryder loves acting as much as I love singing or Serena loves dancing. He went to Juilliard and graduated as an actor now he's on his way to acting in films. Ryder has always been my role model and mentor (like I'd ever tell him that), I hope one day I achieve my dreams like he did his.

"Avery you should come see Serena and Savs perform tonight," Kelsey suggests.

She nods "Yeah, I'll help you guys get ready as well"

The doorbell rings, Serena opens it, letting Luna into our house.

"Hey, I've just showered at my place, you ready to get ready?," Luna asks giving a small smile to Ryder and Avery " Hey I'm Luna Sanchez," I notice her spanish accent seeping through as she says her name.

"I'm Ryder, the brother, and this is my wife Avery," he nods towards Avery.

"Your second name seems really familiar, have I met you before?" Avery quirks an eyebrow to Luna,

"I don't think so," she replies averting her gaze, her pretty face contorted in...sadness.

"Savs do I have to come to lime-," my little brother begins but stops abruptly when he sees Luna.

"Damn uh, Savs is this your friend?" I nod," Is she coming?," I nod again.
Liam gives Luna a dazed look before running back up the stairs " I'll be ready in 10."
"Someone has a crush on you," Kelsey nudges Luna as she groans.

We head upstairs to my room to get ready.
"Your room is so cool," Luna compliments, looking around. It was a decent size with dark red walls filled with music posters and polaroids of memories. In a corner I had my keyboard and a dj system with my iMac (I write all my music on that). My bed was a double with a nightstand with a family picture on it from when I was 13. On the opposite side of my bed I had my walk in wardrobe.

Serena comes into my room with several outfits.

Very revealing outfits.

"I am NOT wearing that," I pick up a skimpy top, wrinkling my nose.

"It fits with the dance AND it's easy to dance in," Serena rolls her eyes, tossing me a pair of black joggers and a skimpy black top. Luna and Serena choose their outfits which were pretty similar to mine.

A/N here are their outfits they wear ;)

Savannah's outfit

Serena's outfit


Luna's outfit



I look at my sister who decided to wear a skirt, whilst Luna wore jeans and I wore joggers. I look Luna up and down as my jaw drops at her abs.

"Your abs, like how?" I ask shocked.

"I work out like my brother duh," She replies. Well that's true I guess, Hunter has a freaking eight pack.
We apply makeup quickly and head downstairs where Ryder, Liam, Avery and a now awake Harper waited.

Ryder glances up from looking at his phone as his expression morphs into shock.

"Hell to the no, you are both NOT wearing that," he shouts angrily.

"Too bad," Serena rolls her eyes pulling her shoes on.

"Leave them be babe," Avery laughs at him making him pout.

"I don't mind what you wear Luna," Liam sighs dreamily.

"Your too young for me hermano," Luna says in a heavy spanish accent.
"Woah you spoke to me, and said a sexy spanish word," he grins.

I laugh at my baby brother "she called you brother idiot, hermano means brother,"

His grin falls in realisation "Oh".

I stand in the back room of Limelight watching Serena and Luna do stretches.

"I wish a tiny bit that I could do this dance with you guys,but I'd rather watch the guys expressions," Kelsey smiles. I laugh marking my routine one more time.

Mallika peeks through the door "How you guys doing?",

"Great, has Josh bought the guys yet?," Serena asks.

Mallika nods "yeah he has,"

Mallika starts struggling muffling words to someone trying to push them out the room.
She fails.

"You dickhead," she curses at Josh who's shoves his way into the room.

"What are you guys doing? And why am I not involved in it?," he pouts glaring at each of us angrily.
"Cos right now your bromance with the spanish four is a threat," I roll my eyes.
He scoffs "I've been hanging out with you two for years and years, I needed some guy friends,"

"Well now your GIRL friends needed JUST girl time," Kelsey mutters shoving him out the door.

I touch up my makeup as Mallika comes back into the room "You guys are on in 3,"

We nod heading to the edge stage. All of us had black robes covering our outfits so the boys didn't know what was going on till it happens. I head on first, Serena and Luna waiting for my que.

I scan the crowd looking for those ocean eyes, meeting them right at the front. Hunter stares right at me, the intensity of his gaze making me waver. He cocks his head to the side revealing his sharp jawline. Clearly he is confused.

"Hey guys so I'm gon-,"

"Sing a song, yeah,yeah your gonna sing a song, as usual," Ivan shouts with a smirk making people laugh. I give him a mock smile flipping him off.

"Actually Ivan, I'm not singing," I motion Serena and Luna to come onto the stage earning a wave of confusion to hit the crowd.

"We're switching things up a bit," I hold Hunter's gaze, slowly slipping off my robe to reveal my outfit, Hunters eyes leave my face and trail down my body, his eyes widening not even trying to cover up the fact he is checking me out.

A few wolf whistles emerge from the crowd as I glance to my left and right to see Serena and Luna had also taken off their robe.

"Play it Mallika!," Luna shouts.

The first words from the chorus of Tiptoe by Jason Derulo come on.
A/N you can watch the video now if you haven't already.
I lock my eyes back onto Hunters as I start dancing the routine Serena choreographed. I move to the rhythm hitting all the moves which have been drilled into my head. Hunters eyes never left my body as I dance in front of him.
Dirty danced in front of him.
One thing no one actually knew about me, was that I could move my hips pretty well. I felt Serena and Luna's presence either side of as we drop low to do some floor work. I forbade any twerking in this song, so Serena, reluctantly,added a floor section to it.

The final moves came up, so I concentrate solely on the moves and not Hunters eyes, and finish the dance posing. A huge grin spreads on my face as the music ends but the diner stays deadly quiet. I bite my lip nervously, was it not good enough?

But then, a slow clap began before the whole rooms erupts in cheers and wolf whistles. Hunter looks utterly shocked but his eyes were dark...sapphire.
They held lust and want and to be honest..it scares me.
The look of shock didn't last long as he notice me staring at him and in true Hunter style, his face turns into one with a massive smirk. I roll my eyes before Serena and Luna pull me into a group hug.

"Nailed it," Serena says breathless, her hazel eyes sparkling. A thought pops into my head as I turn around heading toward the microphone again.

I meet Hunters eyes again and I bite a smile off "On a last note... I win,"

I blow a kiss in his direction before walking off the stage with a massive smirk. I am greeted with Valentino running at me at full speed, grabbing me into a bear hug spinning me round " That was amazing oh my god, you literally were fighting Jason Derulo with Jason Derulo, ugh have I told you that I love you?,"

I smile at Valentino's comment, these past weeks I've got to know Valentino and he's the most sweetest person on the planet, he is literally one of my best friends "I love you too V,"

He gives me a massive smile hugging me again.

"That was so hot like dayum girl you can dance, imma make sure you get pissed more often," Ivan winks throwing an arm around my shoulder making me blush.

"My sisters aren't EVER gonna do that ever again. EVER. I think me and you need a little chat dude," Ryder emerges from the crowd dragging Ivan away by his ear.
Liam comes up to Luna and starts gushing, clearly making her uncomfortable, making me laugh.
"Your brother seems to have a crush," I hear that spanish accent. I turn slightly to side glance Hunter who had an amused look on his face.
"He's so desperate," I reply shaking my head.

"So that dance was something,"

"You think?,"

"You should move your hips like that more often princessa," Hunter whispers in my ear earning a punch to his arm from me.
_______

I open my textbook and try to do some work but aimlessly stare into space instead. Seriously I daydream a lot, every one of my school reports complain about it.
My phone buzzes disrupting Billie Eilish's beautiful voice (seriously her vocals are goals) I press the thumbprint of my IPhone 8+ to see a new text from Brett.

So I saw your dance...

I bite my lip typing:

Did you now

Is it wrong that I was slightly turned on ;)

Wtf dude

What? It was very alluring

Did you just say alluring???

Yeah I'm tryna expand my vocabulary for Romeo and Juliet, you still on for tmrw?

Yeah sure see u tmrw

Adieu my fair maiden

Bye bye Romeo

I switch my phone off smiling to myself. Brett was so sweet and Funny. He is literally the most perfect boy you could want..he was the exact opposite of Hunter.

I should be hanging out with boys like Brett, but why do I always find myself with Hunter?

I feel sick at the thought and the person that Hunter is, sure he looks like a Greek god, but he has the personality worse than the devil.

But what happens when the devil is the one your drawn to?
