You're My North Star (H.S. Fanfic)

Part 9 - Dancing Queen

(Authers note: I would recommend listening to this while you read, hope you enjoy xx) 

Emily watched from the side of the ice rink, all of the sets were performing a group dance to start out the show.

The lights lit up the rink and the ice shimmered like the small diamonds showered all over Emily's white leotard. 

The front of her hair was tied at the back of her head to keep it out her face. It was important for Emily and Benjamin to be styled by a professional stylist, they were quite well known in the world of dance because of some of their record breaking scores so they couldn't be caught in a bad outfit. 

The ends of her wavy hair were stuck in tight curls due to the endless amount hairspray she had on, a small band of fabric was wrapped around her middle finger and it led up from her hand to her shoulders, at the bottom of the leotard was a graceful flowy mini skirt so that it would show of her curved legs as she danced.

"You ready?"

Benji's voice travelled through her left ear, they were told to 'shock the audience' with their hopefully 'emotional wreck of a performance'. 

The song they would be dancing to was 'All I Want' by kodaline, it was a song Emily was a fan of so hopefully she would let herself go while she danced for the 1000 odd people watching. The seats were laid out like a stadium so there would be eyes from every possible angle, and two of those eyes would hopefully be the dreamy green ones that belonged to Harry.

"I hope so"

The atmosphere suddenly filled itself with applause and cheers.

Emily dartet her eyes to her students holding their finishing pose in the middle of the ice as they gasped for air. She smacked her hands together as they exited off both ends of the rink. 

"Right I have to go get into my position"

Benji walked off to the opposite entrance to the one Emily was stood at, Rosy's small voice called her name as she walked towards the changing room.

"Good luck Miss Jackson, not that you need it or anything, i know your going to do great!"

Emily smiled and held her hand for a second.

"Well done out there super star".

Rosy smiled and ran off towards the rest of her team.

"Even if you haven't found it, your inspiration, i believe you will do incredible" 

Miss kate playfully punched Emily's arm as she shook her arms and jumped up and down trying to escape her nerves.

"Go get em dancing queen" 

She patted her back as she stepped onto small plank of wood just before the entrance of the ice.

"Now introducing Miss Emily Grace Jackson and Benjamin James Smith dancing to All i want by Kodaline", the narrator's voice echoes around the arena before the music slowly rolled into the air.

Their skates chipped small fractions of ice into the air as they both turned in sync with the music, there bodies would curl up for diminuendos and expand for crescendos. Emily was letting herself go through the as song the emotion built up. 

The choreography was beautiful, it relied a lot on Emily and Benjamins bodies interlocking and laying on each other, the speed was insane, their hands sculpted delicate shapes into the air and their faces portrayed the emotion of the dance. 

If this choreography were to be repeated by someone else the dancers would have to be very close, luckily for Emily and Benjamin they had been best friends for a long time. The dance was very intimate and it ran off the factor of trust, the music carried on the dramatic effects the slow movements made.
