Hiro couldn't help but smile when Charlie had joined him on the dance floor so quickly. She had an oddity about her as she approached, as if giving a small sample of what she could do on the floor. She seemed to not be holding back any punches and showed off all her techniques in one. Hiro on the other hand used the beats from the music as if they were a heart pumping life into his moves. He had found something that worked with the song and just went with it. When she reached him however her own moves became structured as she danced in a small area near him. Her dance was most unique, sometimes she'd face him, sometimes she moved toward him all the while keeping the same rhythm.
"What's that you're doing?" Hiro finally asked wondering what kind of dance had someone relocate so often.

"This?" She said as soon as she got back to his eyelevel from her front dip. Before the beat could turn again, she turned as well, moving to the right and to the left, all the while trying not to slam into Hiro. The footsteps were basic, but she tried to jazz it up with throwing her arms around the place. She was mostly careful with her dance, but those who weren't in step with Electric Slide dancers had the hazard of getting stepped on or-- with the way her arms were flung around-- even hit with random motion of hands.
"This cool... muggle dance called the Electric Slide... A friend back home... went to this weird sweet sixteen thing... and learned it there." Through her words she had to do her position with some dramatic pauses. When she faced him again, she moved to each side of him. "You wanna learn?"

Nic grimaced. Didn't Essy get it? "Look, Essy, I'm ain't being no jerk, I just don't want my woman being all up and friendly to da blind kid. I mean I understan why he went all ballistic and dat Charlie ain't really a ho, but some ghost all up in her grill, BUT he still hit my girl and I don't want her ya know being all close and personal. Aiight! Dats why I'm pissed dats she's hugging wife beaters and women haters. Feel me?!"
Though Nic was talking to Essy he was still standing by the bass speakers and only if the person was as close to him as Essy was they probably couldn't hear him. Nic continued dancing and he noticed Essy wasn't joining in, but thought she was just made that he basically called his girl out and she stepped up and put him in his place. Just thinking about it made Nic smile. She was great. Nic glanced at Ari once more (SO NOT WITH LOVESICK EYES!!!) and smiled wider. "Come on Essy move ya hips. Bring sexy back!"

(Nice cover Nic)
Despite his intentions of not wanting to start anything tonight had Hiro heard Nic talking about him the way he was there would have been a confrontation. Thankfully, even with his heightened hearing, the music was able to block most of the conversations in the room. The only voice Hiro was hearing at the moment was Charlie offering to teach him a muggle dance. Now who could say no to that?
"Muggles sure seem to move around the floor a lot when they dance." Hiro had thought that dancing would've been a universal thing but he might have been wrong on this one. "Alright show me what these muggles can do."

Krissy smiled as Alex put his hand on her arm as they had entered, it made her worry a little less about meeting Ari and perhaps having some issues arise. Alexander then asked who was attending the party. In truth Krissy didn't have a clue, she knew Seanna had been invited but her friend had dragon pox and wasn't going to be attending. Apart from Seanna and Ari Krissy didn't know, however she recognised alot of the faces once she had entered. Many of them were from school.
It was because of her looking around the room (in a different direction) that she hadn't seen the raging ball of black furhair come flying at her. However Krissy felt the impact and for a moment wasn't quite sure what had happened. It took a moment for Krissy to realise that the immense pain going through her ribs was because Ari had tackled her and hugged her. Krissy was shocked. Did that mean Ari had forgiven her? Krissy quickly switched the expression of pain that had been on her face from the impact, to a smile as she hugged her friend back.
However Ari was host and had to go and continue greeting guests. Krissy would catch up with her in a little bit. There were alot of things she wanted to say, one of them would be sorry. The other would be I've missed you. But apart from that Krissy's side of the story could wait until another time. Tonight, was a party.
Krissy turned back to Alex "Lets go check out the food" Krissy said to him with a grin. Of course, the one thing on her mind was food, typical Krissy. Krissy headed off in the direction that she thought the food was in, leaving Ari to talk to Allegra and Chad who had just entered.

She sighed, giving up on the argument. She didn't have enough energy to stand there and fight with Nic about stuff she had no clue about. She didn't know the situation between Nic, Ari, Hiro, and Charlie. Heck she hadn't even known that Hiro hit Ari. So whatever was happening, unless she knew all the details, she didn't want to be involved.
"I feel ya.. but she still has to be a good hostess.."
Es replied almost quietly. But then she realized she had to speak over the black things booming with music so she yelled it loud enough for him to hear but for no one else to interuppt their conversation. She watched him glance at Ari again [so with lovesick eyes.. XP XP] and had this wave of emotion wash over her, like she was just his fill in. But she knew Nic enjoyed her company, even if he'd rather be with his lady right now. When she looked to Ari and back to him he was looking at her like something wasn't right. Es tucked her hair behind her ear self-conciously. Her eyes widened and she looked at him liked he was incredulous.
"Move my..hips..? Bring sexy back from what?"
She asked. Perhaps he hadn't heard her cause she wasn't exactly willing to shout that part. Es felt her face go aflame and she moved her hips back and forth a couple of times, looking to Nic to see if she was right. She had taught him something while on her terf, and now it was his time to teach her something on his.

{thank Hiro!}
Nic shrugged. Essy was right. She did have to be a good hostess, but how annoying. Nic watched Essy give a small shake of her hips and he almost laughed. He knew Essy's temper and he smiled as he took two steps towards her shaking his legs. "Aiight look. I'm gonna show ya something easy." Nic stepped behind Essy and placed her bum on his groin. He knew she was going to pull away, but it wasn't like that. He wasn't thinking sex he was thinking dance!
"Aiight, Essy so now just try and act sexy. Think if I was B den move ya bod to da music. Like dis." Nic took a step with his right leg pushing Essy's right leg forward. He put one large hand on her back and one on her hips. He pushed her forward so that she was bent over and then slowly guided her hips to shake like a tambourine. "See easy. Now I'm gonna come from around ya and ya gonna mirror me. I move forward wid my left you move back wid ya left den I move back ya move forward. We'll do dat bout 10 times den ya turn around arch ya back like dis and end up in dis same position. Ready?!"

She frowned at him as he laughed at her. She wasn't to blow her cool but she couldn't help it, she just couldn't do this bump and grind crapt, or whatever Nic was doing. Then he stepped behind her and put her in a very uncomfortable position. Yeah, he was right, she tried to pull away but he stopped her. Okay, she could do this, she could be sexy, right? Es sighed and moved her right leg forward when he made her. Es glanced back at him, trying to see what he was doing so she could analyze it and do it right, but he pushed her forward and shook her hips.
Did anyone actually like doing this sort of stuff? She could feel her face ablaze and heat almost pouring off of her, but she did it for Nic's sake. She wasn't going to be known at the girl who ran out of the party cause she was afraid of dancing "sexily." [Haha, if that's a word..] She kept attempting to shake and listened to his words, then nodded and brought herself up as sexy as she could. This wasn't her at all, Es wasn't sexy, it just wasn't right. But whatever, she'd do it tonight and never have to do it again.

Nic closed his eyes and barely supressed the laughter. Essy wasn't sexy, she was akward, but it was cute. "Aiight Essy don think so much on da sexy part. Think mo like ..." Nic looked for the right words. "Vixnz, Enchantress, tease! Ya tease! It's all a story." Nic circled Essy and was now staring at her. He had his knees bent while he dance so he was looking at Essy eye to eye.
"Picture dis, I'm walking towards ya and you're comin ta me." Nic pulled Essy by her hips and they imitated walking. "Yea, like dat. Looks good. Now I move my body against ya." Nic put his legs on the side of Essy's body and actually grind against her. It was funny, but it had a purpose. "Now what would ya do. Reject mae or accept mae? if ya reject me how would ya do it. Turn and walk away, push mae away what? Now ya do dat, but in time to da music. If ya accept mae what would ya do? Put ya arms around my neck, move against mae, what?"

Chad took Allegra's things from her and noticed a coat rack out of the corner of his eye. He reached out to hang their coats when the rack snatched it from him. Chad was thankful he didn't have to move much. Turning back to Allegra, he smiled at her and felt around for her hand, finding it and twirling his fingers with hers. He gave it a light squeeze. "This is a great place you've got here," Chad complimented the hostess with a smile, "It's really nice." He was just trying to act like he wasn't a teacher. One of his biggest fears about taking the job at Hogwarts was that the students wouldn't like him. Tonight was the perfect chance to maybe make some friends within the older population of the students. "Thank you," Arianna glanced around the room herself, reveling in the fact that it was under her ownership. How many people her age, including those in this room, would have a place like this before they'd even left school? Yes, Arianna thought herself very lucky. But again, as she looked over the room, Arianna's eyes fell on Nic and Es and she bit her lip. She didn't like the way they were dancing together, but it was just...fun....right? Maybe she was just jealous or still upset by his earlier comments. Whatever it was, Arianna felt as though she needed to go tell Es that Nic was HER man and Es had no right dancing with him. But if it was just fun...."just" dancing.....Arianna really didn't want to make a scene.... "Legra?" Arianna kept her eyes on the dancing couple as she leaned closer to the older girl, lowering her voice a bit. "Is it okay to tell Nic that I don't like him dancing like that with another girl? OR is that too...." she couldn't think of the word as she tried to keep herself calm. She didn't want to be one of those jealous types who had to keep her boyfriend under her thumb, but tonight she felt as though she might have to.

Alexander walked in with Krissy, his hand on hers, and just as he was about to open his mouth to say something more, Krissy was taken away from him their particular stance. Encased in a hug by presumably the girl, Ari as Alexander thought more to recall who Krissy had told them was having the party, Alexander let go slightly of Krissy so that she could hug back if she so desiered. He tried to give a smile, and tipped his head a bit in greeting toward the black haired girl. He wasn't much for greeting, and the last time he had seen her it was in fact at the quidditch game.
As Ari let go to greet the others at her party, Alexander moved back closer to Krissy. "You alright?" he asked as he still was worried about her injuries. He gently placed his hand on her arm and smiled. "Sure, food sounds good," he agreed as he placed his hand on her back and gestured with his other for her to lead the way.

"Sweet! Okay, stop right there and here's whatcha do," Charlie aligned herself with Hiro and went over the steps naturally before telling him what to do. "Whatcha do is put right foot to the side, put the left foot to the right, too, but step it behind the right. You do it again... right foot to right, left foot to right but next to the right foot.... one, two, three, four... then you clap.
"You basically do some side stepping to the left now. Front, back, front, side. Clap. One, two, three, four.... CLAP!" She coached him as best she could, but she wasn't the best at it herself. Explaining it was another level, but it was a good challenge. "How you doin' there?"

The steps seemed easy enough, they came with the beats. One two three and clap. Of course like anything the theory is always easier than the practice. It was on the second step when his left foot was behind his right that he pivoted on his heels and by the time the fourth step and clap came along Hiro had turned to a one hundred and eighty degree angle. He was now facing the opposite direction and before Charlie could correct him he was heading to his left which was right of the starting point. The dance was interrupted by a collision between master and apprentice as they headed for each other.

Charlie did her best to instruct without getting much too much into it. The beat of the music was perfect for the Electric Slide, and it caused a distraction in the teacher, ultimately coming right into Hiro as he went the wrong way. "Clap, One, tw--oof!" She would have ricocheted off of him has she not reached out for his shoulder.
Charlie looked up at him and scoffed through some chortles. "Nice going, McVeil." She nervously touched her face, and felt its heat. She knew she was blushing again-- something that was now usual whenever she was with Hiro. Still, she quickly disregarded it and nudged him. "Think you can keep it going?"

She didn't think her face could get any hotter with embarassment or her head might explode. People actually liked to do this? She wanted to cover her face with her hands and run away, pretending this never happened. But Nic was trying to teach her something, shouldn't she have enough grace to let him finish? Plus, she didn't like people rubbing up on her like that. It just wasn't koshure.
When he gave her a choice of reject him or accept him, she rejected him. Es grabbed onto the neck of his shirt and brought him forward like she was going to kiss him or something, though she'd never do that, with Nic? Yuck! And then pushed him away with a smirk on her face, giving him "the hand." and walking away in time to the music. Now was her chance to get lost in the crowd. Could she do it?
