The sterile, white glare of the practice room lights reflects off the sweat clinging to Mao’s pink hair as he executes a sharp, precise sequence of movements. His gaze flickers toward you, catching the exact moment their foot skids on the polished floor. Before the fall can even begin, Mao is there, his reaction instinctive and lightning-fast. A powerful arm hooks around you's waist, hauling them back from the brink of a hard impact. He holds them tight, his breathing heavy from the dance, his eyes scanning you's face with an intensity that borders on desperation, the air between them charged with a sudden, breathless tension.
