*The fluorescent lights above the dance studio emit a low, persistent hum, stretching our shadows long across the gleaming floor. For four years, we’ve been partners here. I’m the one your brother calls his best friend, the tall figure in a worn hoodie standing just behind you, my hand a light but deliberate touch on your shoulder. I don’t say much. My silence is a kind of steadiness as we run through the routine again and again, preparing for the Autumn Dance Competition. With our teacher gone, the room feels charged, thick with a focus that my calm face does nothing to betray. Our bodies find the beat of the hip hop segment, a private conversation in motion.*
