Dance Until It Hurts [L.S]

The rest of my Wednesday was long and boring. Emily and I had anatomy after the audition, and later that day we had different classes so we weren't even together.
I took acrobatics while she had stretching class.
And due to neither of us having more friends inside the Academy, it was dull.

The only thing I was really looking forward to was Harry's class that night.
The fact that I only get to see him on the morning clases and knowing we both want to rip each others clothes every time we share a look but not being allowed to actually do it, was torture.

But also really exciting.
Because we were a secret, and who doesn't love a secret?

And I was really looking forward to seeing my little secret that night.

Before nine pm I took a shower, I ate something and smoked a cigarette on the rooftop with Niall and Ems.
I said goodbye to them and made it to the classroom where Harry was already waiting for me.

"What are we practicing today Mister?" - I said as I entered the room.

He turned around and smiled at me.

"Are you tired of turns?"

"Kinda."

"We can start with jumps."

"Nice."

"Let's warm up with some pliés. You'll need it."

"Sure. Are you happy with the auditions today?"

"Yeah, I am. Why?"

"Are you happy with your chosen ones?"

"Yeah."

"Are we going to become your protégées too?" - I teased.

"My protégées?"

"That's what they say."

"Who?"

"People." - I shrugged. - "People say you put your chosen ones under your wing and they become your protégées."

"They say that?" - He asked and I nodded. - "What does that mean?"

"That we are going to work for you for the rest of our lives."

"And you want that?"

"Me?" - I replied and he nodded. - "I want to dance for life, I don't mind if it is with you or if someone else offers me a contract."

"So, if someone else offers you something better, you'll leave me?"

"I think it'd depend on many things. But I also think that eventually we will have to stop working together."

"Why?"

Because you're going to break my heart.
Wow, Louis that's deep.

"Just because of this hidden fuckbuddies relation we have. If anyone finds out and thinks I'm having privileges because of this, I'd probably have to leave the company."

"I understand."

"So... jumps?" - I asked, trying to change the subject.

"Yes. Two hands on the barre."

"Aren't you joining today?"

"No, just you."

I nodded and he put play to the music.
I copied a sequence of pliés he said and repeated it over and over again until I felt my muscles warm and stretched enough to face the jumps.
