Kayoko wore her hair back in a low ponytail as she followed her instructor's movements. Others were here too, joining this place ment major extra credit, so some boys were there too. But Kayoko didn't want to join for extra credit- she just wanted to prove she could be a little graceful. But so far it hasn't worked. During the hamstring stretch, she thought she ripped her hamstring. Even with the chaîné turns, Kayoko bumped into other people. "Now, start your chassés!", The teacher said loudly. Kayoko swiftly moved one foot to the right with the other following it, but she tripped on her own two feet, and fell. She got up, another dangerous slip with no injury. 'But just because I didn't get hurt doesn't mean I'm not a klutz...You must be graceful to be in here, and I am not.', Kayoko thought sighing. But she saw someone that made her forget all of her clumsiness and smile.

Yonutsune was glad she could take classes that didn't always involve having to multiply something or finding a square root. She especially enjoyed dancing very much. She wasn't very athletic, only liking a few sports being as she wasn't very competitive, but dancing was just right for her. She had the balance, and the technique down so it was no problem. She'd gotten into it at early age anyway, so now she just did it more for fun.
However, as she was doing the steps she felt a pair of eyes on her and turned her head to face behind her, seeing Kayoko smiling at her. But...why was she on the ground?
She smiled, then walked over to Kayoko and lent out her hand. "Did you fall, Kayoko?" She asked, not meaning to sound rude but simply guessing if that was the case.

Kayoko smiled at Mei and nodded. "I saw you, you're very graceful!", She said grinning. Kayoko carefully got up, and smiled again. "Thank you so much for helping me! I'm really very clumsy!"

"Thanks." She said, standing for a moment beside Kayoko. "But that's only because I've been doing it for a while. How long have you been dancing?" She asked, and took a stance, then began to move again.

Kayoko smiled. "Today. Around twenty minutes, ehehe.", She said as she tried to imitate Mei's stance.

She smiled lightly again, and watched as Kayoko moved, but didn't want to make her nervous or anything so she stopped and moved on with her dance as Kayoko followed. "Just have fun. Even if you're a klutz, it doesn't really matter. I'm sure I would be a klutz, but I was taught all of that poise and proper stuff, y'know?" She explained, then suddenly stopped dancing as she heard the teacher began to speak.
"You may dance as you wish now." And she went to do a few dance moves across the room.
A few thoughts ran through Yonutsune's head before she said, "Hey, Kayoko, have you ever tried ball room dancing?" She asked while a small, playful, mischievous smile and grabbed Kayoko's hands and began leading the dance.

Kayoko shook her head as Mei lead her through dance steps. She stepped on Mei's feet a couple times, but other than that it was pretty good. "Wow Mei-san! You got taught all of that? Your family must very helpful! You have grace I really don't have!"

Yonutsune suddenly frowned, but continued to lead the way anyway. Soon, she put a smile on to cover up her miserable thoughts. "Yeah. They are." She said but thought, 'Yeah right. As if my parents would take even a second to help me with anything.'
"I'm sure if you just practice," She began, once again averting her attention to Kayoko. "You'll be graceful, Kayo-san."

Kayoko smiled and followed Mei's movements. She was slightly worried that Mei frowned, as if leading a bad memory, but still smiled anyway. "Thank you Mei-san! Nobody has ever called me 'Kayo-san' before!"

She still looked at Kayoko, not frowning nor smiling. "Is that all right with you?" She asked. She had a habit of always thinking of nicknames, so it was kind of just natural.
