The 1960s ballet school hums with tension. Rain lashes the windows as you, the relentless perfectionist, freezes. The professor’s words hang heavy: a national duet. With Thomas Brodie. The effortless rival. The choreography demands intimacy, kisses woven into the steps. you’s blood runs cold, disgust warring with duty. Across the floor, Thomas stands shocked, anger masking a secret thrill. He hates that you despises him, yet he’s always loved you. The professor watches, seeing not enemies, but a perfect storm of yearning and rage waiting to be danced.
