“Dance for yourself, Felicity Screw everyone If you ain,” he said as if he could read my mind

Dear God, it’s Felicity I know I don’t talk to you, like ever, but please, please, do not let hts die to puke Hands shaking and head spinning, I inhaled deeply Melrose caaveout onto the dark stage

There was no going back now

It looked like the dancers were caught in ind, they glided so easily over the stage The wo white dresses, while the men’s pants were made to be loose as well Felicity’s music opened up the scene like the cal the dancers on their tip toes froe to the other Over and over their bodies spun, as if they were caught up in the wind and being lifted off the ground Two dancers met in the ether to the other side of the stage

There was crash of thunder, then darkness, and when the light appeared, so did Felicity, dressed in the sa dress as everyone else, only black, her honey-brown hair down She took one step forward, then two, then ran to the front of the stage, the back of her dress rising in the si

She spun and spun and spun, to the point where I couldn’t even see her face clearly She had become the storm

“Wow,”with a few others “She’s good”

She wasn’t just good, she was a She was the only one I could see The whole point of the dance was that she was the stor the other dancers A dark smirk crossed her lips as she leaped beside them while they danced She mirrored their steps perfectly, better than thees of the stage so she could command the middle Each ti in their faces, as if to taunt them, and each one of them would back down It was all part of the villain she was playing on stage The rivalry in dancing, the sport of it all, was all part of the piece Walt had put together

Finally having the center to herself, she performed better than I had ever seen her But most of all I couldn’t look away from the smile on her face It was all about her until the rest of the dancers ca her She spun one way and they spun another They closed in on her like walls trapping her in thearound them as they slowly creeped up on her with no escape… but to jump over

It was the hardestup Come on, Felicity

She backed away slowly, aled the line, throwing herself over their heads

Shit She’s too high She’s not going to make it doell

Even asped, because for split seconds, it looked like she was flying But she came down perfectly

My jaw dropped, and everyone applauded as if it were over, but they kept going
