Summary: The dance final
Prompt table Maggie had arranged to have one last practice with her assigned partner, and the routine went much better this time. That opened her eyes a bit. She was the problem, not him.
Something to think about. And stop being in denial about, too.
The murmur of excitement, when they arrived, became clear moments later when BoA came in.
"Oh," Maggie murmured. "Wow."
Granted, she only recognized BoA because they'd watched her dance practice video a number of times over the three days of instruction. If she hadn't known, though, she wouldn't have recognized her at all. But now she did, and when BoA sat down and made herself comfortable, Maggie wasn't the only one who looked a bit green. She was going to watch?
Maggie was close to the last to perform, and she managed it, somehow, without totally screwing up. And the dance break in the middle was probably the best she'd ever done, and she grinned delightedly at her partner when they met again in the back of the room. He smiled back. It made her realize, though, that if she'd known who that was, in the practice room the other night, no way could she have danced so easily with him.
"Thank you!" BoA said when the music went off for the final time. "You all looked very good."
That was the last Maggie understood, but she clapped when everyone else did.
She needed to learn the people she should know, even if it were by sight and not by name. Somehow, she didn't think her roommates would mind too much helping her with that.
