==Regulus==
"Ok everyone, that was good! Now we are done en barre, I would like to make an announcement." The voice of Madame MacDonald booms in Regulus´ ears. He is exhausted from the training but tries not to let it show. He strechtes his legs a bit before walking over to the others that are waiting for the announcement of their Ballet teacher as well. "Ok as I said, I have a big, lifechanging Announcement for you. In 7 months, we will perform in front of important people and talent scouts that will pick a few of you for their professional ensemblees. Those talent scouts have their studios all around the world and you get to dance with some of the biggest dancers of all time. You get contracts and if you get to the right people, you make a lot of money. So I have decided that you will work in pairs. I have assigned everyone of you a partner and you both will prepare and meet up regulary to discuss your performance. The names are hanging on the board. Take a look and then find your partner, after that we will start with the training." Regulus stands up , his knees cracking and walks over to the board. He searches until he finds his name, paired with a girl called Lily Evans. He doesn´t really know her, they said hi a few times but thats about it.He sees her walking over towards him, her fiercy red hair in a strict bun. " Hey !" She flashes a bright, white smile at him and continues : "I´m so happy to be working with you, you are really talented. I think almost every dude is jealous of you." She lowers her voice a bit "If I´m honest I am too." Regulus only smiles at her and murmurs a quick "Thank you", before walking back to their dance teacher, Lily going behind him. They stand there for a while until the training begins again.
After training, everyone walks to the changing rooms. Regulus and the 7 other man from his ballet group get out of their tights and some go for a shower. A few dancer start talking and Regulus can´t help overhearing, the changing room is very small. " Dude , the other day I banged my girl so hard she wasn´t able to walk afterwards. It was incredible. She´s so damn flexible, she can do this thing with her hips..." Regulus scrunches his nose and tries packing his bag a little faster. That kind of talk didn´t interest him, never has and probably never will. He tells quick goodbyes to everyone and basically bolts out of the room, at the same time that Lily walks out of the girls room. She smiles at him, then fastens her pace, almost running to the exit. Regulus follows her, finally making it out of the studio He sees her running to a man standing there with his hands in his pockets, leaning against a wall, though as soon as he sees her, he pushes himself off and takes a few steps forward, just in time for her to fall around his neck.He spins her around a bit before letting her go and giving her a kiss on the lips. "Hiya Darling, how was training? Did you have fun? " Lily smiles and nodds enthusiastically, so much that Regulus is scared her head might actually fall from her shoulders. Now Regulus is close enough to actually see the guys features and for a moment he stops dead in his tracks.
The guy is tall, with broad shoulders, like someone who plays a lot of sports, his hair messy but not in a bad way, more in a " I woke up like this but I´m still sexy " way. His eyes are some shade of amber and in the evening sun light looks like a tigers eye crystal. When he smiles, he seems genuine and the laugh that escapes his lips is like music to Regulus ears. It feels like everything moves in slow motion and Regulus´s breath catches in his troat.
But then its over when the other man come out of the studio and the younger men is in control of himself again. He shakes his head as to clear his mind and continues walking. "What the hell was that? Very weird." is all his brain is screaming. He walks past the couple and to his car. A black BMW. Kind of a running gag between him and his best friend. He drives home which luckily isn´t far away and lets himself fall onto his couch, definitely not thinking about Lilys boyfriend.
