"Ballet... sounds like fun," Josh replied, sarcastically. "Its stupid that your parents wouldn't let you take karate. Its not like karate is really a guy thing. Its about discipline," he said. "Then again, I guess you learn some of that in ballet, too."
Josh laughed at Stevies joke about their being some kind of 'club' they belonged to. "Nice to know I'm not the only one who got screwed because of a parent's political ambitions."

"Oh there's lots of us." Stevie said with a wave of her hand. "I wouldn't worry to much about them anymore. You got your cousin and your family here, hell I'm sure you'll make tons of friends in no time." She laughed.
"Ballet taught me how to stand like this." She twisted her feet into an awkward stance. "Not all that useful." She shook her head. "In Karate however, I learned how to through boys over my shoulder. That's a fun and useful trick to have."

Josh sighed. "Sad how politicians try to impress everyone, but in doing so tend to alienate an entire group of peole," he said. "I guess so. At least, I hope I'll make some friends. You're the only person I've met so far."
Josh smirked at Stevie's awkward stance. "Because that's so graceful," he joked. "Good thing the idea of making football players take ballet to improve their game didn't go over so well in my town. I think I would have ended up killing myself. Or someone else."

"It really is bad." She shook her head. "You would think at least a handful of politicians would realize that the gay population votes too!" She threw her arms up in exasperation.
Stevie stood in her ballet stance for a moment, her finger to her mouth in concentration. "I dunno," She said in mock seriousness "Wouldn't you just wanna sweep someone off their feet standing like this?" She giggled before quickly working her way out of it.
"Ah, as for friends, I'm sure you will. If anything, you've got me thus far." She grinned.

"You would think so. I mean, my dad knows that I'm old enough to vote now. Of course, if I was still living with him and I didn't vote, he'd probably kill me," Josh replied. "Maybe they think that because we're different, for some reason we aren't allowed to vote."
"First off, I would laugh my butt off if I ever saw a guy standing like that. And secondly, I don't think I would ever date a ballet dancer. Of course, can't say never, because I might just run into a really cute one some day," Josh replied.
"Glad to know I've made one friend, at least. And I haven't made any enemies yet, so I'd say I'm doing pretty good."

"I don't even think we're different. I think it's because they want us to be something we aren't." She shrugged off the political debate before laughing when he said he'd never dance a ballet dancer.
"I dunno, some Ballet dancers are beautiful. Me, not one of them." She shook her head. "Watching me dance was like watching a monkey with geese. It was just terrible, I'm not a dancer. I'm just not particularly good at it. I had a friend in class though, and he was the prettiest man." She laughed.
"Indeed." Stevie said with a laugh when he said he hadn't made any enemies yet. After a moments thought she grinned. "Don't worry, your a big boy, you'll be ok."

"True. My parents always wanted me to date their friend's daughter. Elizabeth. She was gorgeous, but not exactly my type," Josh joked.
"Yeah, some of the guys who dance ballet are pretty cute. But you can't ever tell if they're gay or straight unless they tell you. Because some of those guys take ballet just so they can put their hands on pretty girls," he informed her. "One of the guys on my football team admitted that one to my. He told his parents he wanted to take ballet to improve his game."
"Oh, I'm sure I'll be fine. Who needs a huge group of friends, anyway?"

Stevie grinned. "Trust me. If your in a room with them, you can tell if there just there for the girls." She laughed. "When he has a better stance and takes it far more seriously, their not straight." She laughed before shaking her head.
"I don't think anyone needs a big group of friends. I think you just need a couple good friends and a handful of acquaintances and your set." She said with a smile.

"Well, to know that you would have to actually have to be in the class with them," Josh replied. "And like I said, I never took ballet, so I wouldn't know."
Josh smiled at Stevie. "Well, that shouldn't be too hard," he replied.

"Ah, you just have to be in the room." Stevie said with a laugh. She shook her head and swept her hair off her neck. It was warm in her apartment. She made a face when he said he never took ballet. "Yeah, your lucky you never took it, stop rubbing it in." She said laughing.
"Nah shouldn't be hard at all." She agreed when he commented with a smile.

"Well, the only guy I knew who took ballet was straight, so I wouldn't know," Josh replied. He smiled at her. "Sorry. I'll shut up about the ballet now," he said, smiling at her. "We should probably get going. I have to be home in time for dinner."

"Yeah, hang on." Stevie said fishing for her keys. "I'm not quite sure where I put my keys." She frowned before spotting them on the floor by the couch. Must have jangled out when she was depositing her books.
"Here we go, well mi lord, your chariot awaits you." She did a curtsy with a laugh.

"Don't feel bad. I'm always losing my keys," Josh replied. He smiled at her joke. "Funny," he replied, laughing. "Are you always such a comedian, or am I just lucky?" he asked.

"Who me?" She asked innocently. "Nah, I'm not funny, I'm just dorky." She laughed. "Wait till the dancing starts. I'm not talking like dance to the song, but dance in the middle of Walmart because they have the DVD I wanted." She laughed again.
"Or when you find out who my favorite band is, or when I inevitably do another embrassing thing." She grinned before herding him out the door. "Let's get you to Smitty's so you can fill out that application." She made sure to lock the door behind them.
((Stevie Out..did you wanna go to Smittys?))

"A dork? You?" Josh asked, smiling. He couldn't help but laugh when she started talking about dancing in the middle of Wal-Mart. He followed her out the door willingly, knowing that they needed to get going. "Trust me... you'll see me do something embarrasing soon. So you won't feel bad about it for too long," he joked.
((out - Smitty's it is))
