Chapter 71 - 71: Birthday Party X (1/2)
(Michelle POV)
As Kate and I stepped into the dance floor, she positioned us so we both would have a somewhat clear view of our targets and that I would be facing away from Anthony. As she said, so as not to distract me.
Then, to my surprise, she started dancing with me, not like the group dance we had earlier with Lara, but much more sensual. Intimate even. It shocked me that Kate has no problem dancing with me like this. If I didn't know that her orientation was straight, I would think that she bends that way! Not that I have a problem if she does, I mean her being a lesbian if she were which she was not, but it's just so new to me.
Seeing my reaction, perhaps Kate found it funny, she whispered as she continued to dance with me. ”Michelle, relax. Don't be too stiff. If you can't dance with me like this, what more a stranger.”
I bit my lip as I nodded my head. I took a deep breath and tried to get the rhythm of the music. After a while, I was dancing with her, our bodies were literally touching, and rubbing.
”Now, look at your target. Is he still chatting with that girl?”
I took a glance at where he's at and saw that although he was with the girl, his eyes were elsewhere, scanning the room. ”Yes, but he's scanning the room.”
”Good, keep looking at him from time to time. Once he looks at our direction, he would definitely see you. When he does, maintain eye contact.” She said slowly through the blaring music.
”Alright…” I answered as I did as she told. While doing so, Kate took a step away from me and continued dancing. Curiously, I looked at what she was doing.
Noticing, she smiled at me and mouthed, 'Watch me'. Then, she looked at the guy who was her target. Since the guy was positioned on the side, I can also see him. After just 5 seconds, I noticed that he was already looking at Kate.
Kate danced as she held his gaze, not even flinching as the guy's eyes roamed around her body. The guy was dancing with the girl he was with, but as I looked at him and Kate, the way they were looking at each other, it felt like they were dancing with each other instead. Kate did not just stare. She would glance down briefly before raising her eyes again to make eye contact. Then, she tilted her lips upward by a little.
She was so bold, and I was wowed by her sheer confidence. I had to admit. It was very sexy. Her doing all those only took 15 seconds. Then, she glanced back at me. She took a step closer again and whispered, ”That's how you begin flirting. Once you caught his interest, even though you already broke eye contact, he would continue to stare. During that time, you show him what you want through body language. I can't explain it, but by the time the song changes, he would ask you for a dance, or sometimes, he would start dancing with you as you move. Now, from there, how far you would like it to go, that would depend on you. You're the one to decide when to hit the brakes.”
I whispered ok just in time for the moment my eyes met with Louis. At first, I didn't know what to do. But remembering what Kate did, I glanced downwards to get back my composure. Kate noticed but did not say anything. She just guided my body to continue moving.
Anyway, I chanced to look at him again. He was looking at me, but then turned away. Then, I saw his lips tilting upwards. Gods, did he think I was funny and understood quickly what I was doing?
”He looked away.” I told Kate.
Kate shook her head. ”Try again.”
