Pattern B - 34 Counts (Start B1 facing 6:00)
Section B1 – Slow scissor R, Spiral ½ R, ¼ turn R, ½ turn R
1234Take a large step R on RF [6:00] (1), hold (2), close LF next to RF (3), cross RF over LF (4),
5 6Step L on LF (5), make a ½ spiral turn R (weight remains on LF) [12:00] (6),
7 8Make a ¼ turn R stepping forward on RF [3:00] (7), make ½ turn R stepping back on LF [9:00] (8).

1234Take a large step R on RF [12:00] (1), hold (2), close LF next to RF (3), cross RF over LF (4),
5 6Step L on LF (5), make a ½ spiral turn R (weight remains on LF) [6:00] (6),

Styling: On count 6, tilt your head L and form a heart shape with your hands in front of your chest by touching your thumbs together (facing down) and your fingers meeting.
Section B5 – Head tilt, hands out
1 2&Tilt your head sharply to the R (1), raise your R hand to your R shoulder with your hand open and facing up (2), raise your L hand to your L shoulder with your hand open and facing up (&).
Timing: At this point in the song, Neoni sings “But could you love her”. The idea is to hit “could” with the head tilt, “love” with raising your R hand, and “her” with raising your L hand.
Pattern C - 16 Counts
Section C1 – Hitch-step (hands), ¼ L hitch-step, tic tac-hitch, out-out-in-quarter
1234Hitch R knee (1), step forward on RF (2), turn ¼ L hitching L knee [9:00] (3), step forward on LF (4),
Styling: On counts 1 and 3, raise the elbows of both arms with hands pointing downwards, and on counts 2 and 4, lower both elbows with hands pointing upwards.
&5 6Turn body ¼ R swiveling R heel towards L heel [12:00] (&), turn body ¼ R swiveling L heel L [3:00] (5), hitch R knee (6),
&7&8Step R on RF (&), step L on LF (7), step RF to center (have R heel turned slightly in here) (&), make a ¼ turn R stepping forward on LF [6:00] (8)
Section C2 – REPEAT C1 (to come back to the wall you started C1 facing)
1234Hitch R knee (1), step forward on RF (2), turn ¼ L hitching L knee [3:00] (3), step forward on LF (4),
Styling: On counts 1 and 3, raise the elbows of both arms with hands pointing downwards, and on counts 2 and 4, lower both elbows with hands pointing upwards.
&5 6Turn body ¼ R swiveling R heel towards L heel [6:00] (&), turn body ¼ R swiveling L heel L [9:00] (5), hitch R knee (6),
&7&8Step R on RF (&), step L on LF (7), step RF to center (have R heel turned slightly in here) (&), make a ¼ turn R stepping forward on LF [12:00] (8)
**OPTIONAL** MODIFICATION TO THIRD C:
In the last quarter of the third C, you will hear what sounds like the ending of B. If you wish to hit this, replace counts 6-8 of C2 with “Cross RF over LF and unwind ¾ L from 9:00 to 12:00” for Count 6, and perform section B5 for counts 7-8&.
Whether you choose to do this option or not, both will take you to 12:00, ready to finish off with AAB*.
