I was nervous. Ew. Nerves. I walked in and saw the troupe standing there. Soon enough my mom started assessing them. Then she called me on to do my solo.
*Timeskip to duets bc nothing changes and I'm lazy*

I was sitting in Shakes and Ladders, waiting for at least SOMEONE to come and talk to me. Eventually Kingston showed up.
"Hey, so do you wanna do the duet?"
"Yeah sure."
"My names Kingston by the way. In case you didn't know."
I awkwardly smiled. Thinking of myself as a heterosexual was pretty weird but I never took labels anyways. I like ✨ humans ✨. We went to Studio One and sat down on the floor and discussed our lives. I learned that he was a Hunger Games fan and started dancing here last year.
"So you're pretty new to a troupe too?"
"Yeah. I guess."
"So should we get back to the duet?"
"Sure Lils."
LILS. WHAT THE FUCK NOBODY CALLS ME THAT I AM DYING INSIDE WHAT WHAT WHAT UM CHILE ANYWAYS SO.
My mom walked in calling me to Studio A to practise. I was still a little distracted, but I knew I had to do what's best for the team. Besides, my mom's pretty strict and said she wouldn't approve of any of my relationships till I was about nineteen.
Nerves. AGAIN.
