"Okay class, today we're going to be practicing lifts." Ms Donatello announced as all the girls began giggling and whispering quietly. The last time they did lifts, Harry asked out Abby and they started dating so apparently that meant tone thing like that would happen today.

"As we are quite limited to only 3 boys at the moment, every girl must have at least one turn with each boy, we have some new male dancers joining us soon but for now we must do it this way."

Oh god. Eleanor's eyes slowly drifted over to Oliver who had a frown on his face, and was staring right back at her. "Okay first off, let's have Abby and Josh."

It was a lot of lifts later and there was a low chatter around the room, since they were only practicing lifts there was no need to be silence, and Oliver had been paired with Eleanor, and it was their turn.

"Drop me, and I will kill you." Eleanor threatened and the boy rolled his eyes. "Okay, Ellie and Oliver, can you do a Grand Jete please." Ellie and Oliver both nodded, while they both mentally scowled at each other. Oliver hesitantly placed his hands on her waist and lifted Eleanor as she did the splits in mid-air and then landed gracefully. "Good very good, maybe I should pair you two up more."

"No!"

"No!"

Both of them spat out before they could stop themselves and Ms Donatello frowned. "Okay then, lastly Oliver and Gina." Eleanor walked over to her friends who were all sitting in front of the mirrors and began talking with her friends. "Oh my god, look." Danielle tapped my shoulder and pointed to Oliver with a horrified expression and Eleanor gasped. He had a boner while lifting Gina. The whole class began laughing as Oliver froze in horror. "Okay uhm class dismissed."

That broke Oliver out of his trance and he quickly ran out of the classroom after putting Gina down, Eleanor just looked at the floor with wide eyes as the rest of the class carried on laughing.

Eleanor's driver was off of work today and Chloe had forgotten so she was running late, and Katie was busy being mad at Anna-kat for being a vegan now and Taylor for dying her hair without permission that she had totally forgotten she had to pick Oliver up. So there the two were, sitting on a bench by the door of the studio as Ms Donatello, the tension was so thick you could cut it knife. "Oliver, your mom is here." Ms Donatello walked in and Eleanor mumbled a 'thank god' as Oliver grabbed his bag and ran outside.

"Oh and Ellie, it looks like your mom is here now." Me Donatello smiled and Ellie waved goodbye and walked outside to be met with Katie. "Oh hi, Mrs Otto." She said surprised as she looked at her mom to make sure she wasn't watching, luckily she wasn't or she'd have thrown a hissy fit that Eleanor was talking to Katie. "Hey, so I know your mother and I aren't on the best terms, but I was wondering if there was an incident today in ballet? Oliver is acting weird."

Eleanor's face dropped and she froze. "Oh." She mumbled before looking at the ground and sighing. "Something happened, but I'm not sure it's my place to tell you. At all." The girl told her quirky and Katie winced. "That bad, huh." Eleanor nodded before saying goodbye to Katie and waking over to her car. Eleanor wouldn't be surprised if Oliver left after a stunt like this, which is what she wanted. So why was she upset? Why wasn't she happy that someone she hated had just had the most embarrassing thing happen to them?

Oliver has been avoiding Ballet for a week. He couldn't even bring himself to think about it, which mostly wasn't too hard. Except the fact his best friends was so close with Eleanor. Eleanor decided she needed to do something, anything to make him come back to ballet, because for some unknown reason, it was driving her mad.

"Hey Cooper, do you know where Oliver is? I've checked his house but it's empty, that restaurant he really likes is he with you or..." Eleanor asked through the phone and he sighed. "I think he's at the library for a reading from his dads book. Why-"

"Thanks, gotta go!" The girl hung up the phone and started sprinting towards the library. When she arrived she saw the boy and his family getting out of their car. "Oliver!" She shouted as she came to a stop and the boy froze. His eyes kind of went wide and he turned around to walk away but before he could Eleanor grabbed his arm. "We need to talk." She dragged him away from his family despite his efforts of getting out of the girls tight grip.

"Jesus, what!" He exclaimed when they can to a stop. "You need to come back to ballet." She sighed and Oliver scoffed. "No really, you need to come back. It'll all blow ever eventually and Gina totally gets it was an accident, she told me! And-" She sighed before carrying on. "I can't believe I'm about to admit this but you're good at ballet, weirdly good, since you only started a year ago and I-the team needs you. Please come back."

Oliver stood there in silence before a small smile came onto his face. "Did you just say I'm good at ballet?" There he is, he's back. "Yes, now are you gonna come back or did I say that for nothing."

"Maybe you did say it for nothing maybe you didn't." He shrugged before starting to walk away and then stopped to face the girl. "I never said thank you for not telling anyone here about...ballet." He whispered the last word quietly and Eleanor felt a smile stretch across her face. "I might not be the kindest person ever, but I'm not a bitch." She nodded and her and Oliver just exchanged smiles before they both began walking away.
