Eli #638: View from up Close

Player

One, two, three, four! One, two, three, four! Okay! Great work, Eli!

Eli

Phew! Thanks for keeping time for me. I feel like I've gotten a lot better at that dance now.

Player

For sure. You really do pick up choreography quickly, Eli. It felt like you had the moves for the whole song down in a flash.

Eli

I only have the gist of it right now. I need to concentrate on the finer details moving forward.

Player

That's our Eli!

Eli

Though I admit I'm having a tough time wrapping my head around the first move for the second verse.

Player

Oh, the part where you go straight from a turn into a high five with the girl you're facing?

Eli

Exactly. To be honest, I wish I could practice it with a partner.

Player

Right, since all the other ÎĽ's girls had all sorts of different plans today.

Eli

Yeah, they did… Wait, that's it!

Player

What's up?

Eli

Could you be my high-five partner?

Player

Who, me?!

Eli

You don't need to do the turn part. All I want you to do is give me a high five when we face each other.

Player

Hmm, I could probably manage that much…

Eli

Okay! Then here we go.

Eli

One, two, three, four! One, two, three, four!

Eli

And turn…

Eli

High five!

Eli

*Giggle* Nice job. I have a much better idea of it now thanks to your help.

Player

E-Eli… The move's finished, so you can probably let go of my hand now… And, um, you're a little too close…

Eli

Goodness, are you getting flustered? *Giggle* So cute.

Eli

Now that I have you this close, I want you to keep your eyes only on me for a little while longer.

Player

K-Keep my eyes on…?!

Eli

Hahaha! Sorry, I went a bit too far with my teasing.

Option 1: “It was a joke?! You're so mean!”

Player

Geez! It was a joke?! You're so mean! You got my heart pounding for real!

Eli

Well, you were blushing such a deep shade of red that I just couldn't help it!

Option 2: “Anyone's heart would race that close to you, Eli!”

Player

Weeeh… Anyone's heart would race if they were that close to you, Eli. No fair!

Eli

*Chuckle* I'm sorry. You just looked so cute!

Eli

But I really meant what I said about wanting to stay like that for even a second longer, gazing into each other's eyes.
