Description
Like the way he danced, everything in Joel's life was perfectly placed, an allegro exercise all on beat, an enchainment with no mistakes. The last thing he needed was a distraction, something to pull his attention away and make him stumble, like losing your spot during a series of fouettes. He glances back towards the bar and sees Christopher still looking in his direction. Joel catches his eye again by mistake for just a second too long and Christopher smiles slowly and winks at him. Joel shivers slightly and already feels slightly unbalanced. Christopher is definitely not a good idea. Joel is perfectly on track. He is about to get everything he's ever wanted, to become a Principal dancer for the Royal Ballet. He's focused, determined and nothing will get in his way. Then he meets Christopher, a smooth-tongued barman with dangerous eyes, and suddenly not everything is so simple.
