They still won't think you're an idiot though! [Since that is apparently the bigger problem here, thinking you're twelve is technically better! Plus they...would probably think that anyway, right? Even if you're not dancing with her. So really, that's not a problem at all.]

Pleaaaaase? I want to dance with all my friends tonight! It's a ball, after all...it can just be a little dance! [Look at this face. Look at it. Can you really say no to a smile like this?]
