With You (Sasha Banks x Dean Ambrose)

"Alright, who wants to start first?" Callie laughed while looking at Bryton and Jacob.

It was the morning after Halloween night, week eleven. Now, they were preparing for a double header with week twelve. There would be an elimination on Monday night, but they had numerous dances to rehearse and choreograph. It was anybody's game, but Jacob and Bryton wanted to win it all. Only one could win at the finale.

For contemporary night, night one of week twelve, Callie had four dances. Two were with Bryton and two were with Jacob. Callie and Bryton's two dances were to The Climb by Miley Cyrus and Midnight Love by girl in red. Both had very different stories that would unfold on Monday in front of everyone's eyes.

Callie and Jacob's two dances were not as storytelling, but beautiful nonetheless. One of theirs was to the song No Surprises by Radiohead. The other one was to the song Afterglow by Taylor Swift, which would just be a pretty dance overall. These four duets were not even counting the other dances they would have on Tuesday. They all had their work cut out for them to make it to the top.

"Let's start." Bryton said as she was done stretching and warming up.

"Okay, but can we have a couple people sit in to watch? I just wanna make sure this is perfect." Callie said as they were going to rehearse their duet for The Climb by Miley Cyrus. Jacob nodded his head, then grabbing Claire and Asher so they could help where and if needed.

Callie and Bryton began rehearsing as it went well. Of course they still had bits and pieces of it to clean up and perfect before Monday, but they did great. Everyone watched them with proud grins, excited for contemporary night on Monday.

"Feel good?" Callie asked as they finished the choreography and she adjusted her knee brace to protect her ACL.

"Yeah I think that was great." Bryton grinned as they hugged and continued with rehearsals.

Monday came quickly as it was week twelve night one. There were now two weeks left after this week, the semi finals and finale. For night one, Callie, Bryton, and Jacob had duets. Callie and Bryton had two duets, same as Callie and Jacob. They were all excited for tonight, then would have another busy night tomorrow with it being night two.

"Baby, it's okay. You'll see mama and daddy soon." Callie tried to calm Everleigh down as she did not want her parents to leave that morning ahead of the show.

"No!" She cried, clinging on to Callie's neck as Mercedes and Jon were also trying to keep her calm. Jacob found one of her beloved stuffed animals nearby, seeing if that would help.

"Good job, Everleigh. We love you so much, baby girl. Mama and daddy will see you at the show, you're safe." Jacob said as he took Everleigh momentarily, handing her, her beloved pink plush cat as that helped her calm down. Callie and Jacob both made sure she was okay before leaving, thanking Mercedes and Jon and headed out to the show.

Later that evening, the show was about to begin. Callie and Bryton were going to dance first to The Climb by Miley Cyrus. Callie and Jacob's duets would be back to back. The first one would be to No Surprises by Radiohead, which would be right after Callie and Bryton's first duet. Their second duet to Afterglow by Taylor Swift would be right after. Callie and Bryton would be second to last to close the show with their final contemporary routine for the night, Midnight Love by girl in red.

"Oh my gosh, our girls." Mercedes grinned as the show was beginning and Claire and Bryton were on stage. They were gorgeous, lavender dresses with their hair in half ponytails, soft makeup looks to complete. They were ready for the first dance of the night.

"They look beautiful." Rebecca grinned as they saw Callie quickly run over to see Everleigh while they were on commercial break.

"Mama!" Everleigh grinned as Callie hugged her and kissed her cheek.

"I love you, baby. Mama wanted to come see you very quick. I'll see you in a little bit." She beamed, running back to Bryton as commercial break was about to end.

"First up for contemporary night, please welcome Callie Good and Bryton Lopez as they will be performing to The Climb by Miley Cyrus!" The hostess grinned as Callie and Bryton were in place, ready to go.

Callie and Bryton's dance was beautiful. It was full contemporary, the two dancing together as if they were dancing soulmates. That's how it's always been with the two of them. They even pulled a stunt out of their pocket as Bryton was down on her hands and knees, Callie jumping off of her back into a gorgeous leap that captivated the audience. Mercedes and Jon as well as Rebecca and Colby were emotional watching their two daughters dance beautifully together, as they always have.

"That was spectacular." Colby grinned as he, Rebecca, Mercedes, and Jon were extremely proud of their girls.

"They're so good together, I can't believe, as long as all goes well, they only have a couple more weeks dancing together." Rebecca said, referring to if Bryton made it to the finale. The same went for Jacob. Callie would be dancing in the finale no matter what as she would be a pro.

"I really hope they get to dance until the finale. That would be amazing." Mercedes said as Jon nodded his head, the four turning their attention back to the show as Callie and Jacob were about to come on.

Callie and Jacob danced their first duet beautifully. They wore simple baby blue outfits, really pulling out the technique. This routine did not have hardly any lifts or tricks, a far cry compared to Halloween night's crazy lifts and stunts they did. They wanted to showcase all of their techniques and strengthened abilities with the routine, which they did just that.

"Great job guys! Woohoo!" Marianne grinned as Callie and Jacob's second duet to Afterglow by Taylor Swift. It was a beautiful, romantic contemporary dance.

"Good job besties!" Claire grinned as she hugged Callie and Jacob once they made it backstage. They thanked her before Callie went to get ready for her duet with Bryton.

"One more, you ready?" Callie asked as she and Bryton were about to head on stage for their final routine.

"Yep! Let's do it!" Bryton beamed as they hugged and headed on stage.

Callie and Bryton's final routine of the night was a very powerful contemporary routine. It was about one friend trying to hang on to the other, even if it was toxic. It was intense, powerful, strong. It was everything they wanted it to be. They captivated the audience in a different way compared to their first routine of the night. Everyone applauded for them, the two girls hugging before they went to eliminations at the end of the show.

The eliminations were nerve wracking. However, Bryton and Jacob made it to the semi finals the following week. They would be competing with one other competitor to make it to the top two, hopefully winning it all at the finale. Their friends and family were thrilled for the two to make it to the semi finals.

"Ready for tomorrow, buddy?" Bryton asked as they were going off the air.

"Anybody's game right?" Jacob asked as the two hugged and prepared for one more episode ahead of the second to last week of the show, wanting to make it to the finale and take it all home.
