Even though she was using him to keep balance, had Simon SEEN that?? Her arabesque penchée was the coolest thing she could do. All the other amazing things ballerinas did she was still developing, and she'd only show off once they were all perfectly mastered. Once her leg was back down, she gracefully finished in a fifth foot position and let go of Simon's arm with a demi-plié and preparation arm position. "It is difficult." She said as she nodded solemnly. "You need to practise a lot to do that." And she wasn't even exaggerating that time. The girl smiled when Simon said he'd probably fall on his face if he ever tried that. That made her feel good, actually. Knowing she could do something other people couldn't. She felt really, really proud of herself.
"Since I was 5. So 8 years now." Agatha told him as she casually stretched one foot at the time. "This is the only bad thing about coming to Hogwarts. I can't leave to go to lessons." She shook her head. "That's why I need to keep practising myself." There was no way she'd allow herself to go back to stage one and then have to start it all over again! No, thank you! She'd only get better and better, mhm!!!
He nodded his head rather quickly when she spoke to him again. Practice a lot. Yes, it seemed like you needed a TON of practise to be able to do all the crazy things that she was doing. Uh-huh. Simon was never going to do that. Well he couldn't imagine himself wearing pink tutus and ballet shoes. It wasn't really his thing but he'd support Agatha cause she was a girlfriend. Erm. A girl who was a friend not the other way around, okay? "
Should I go... sit down or do you still need me?" he asked and that phrase came out rather too playfully. Erm. Awkward.
She had been doing ballet since she was five? "
Merlin, you're really good at it," he said. Keeping up with something for such a long time involved a lot of dedication, hard work, sweat, and tears. "
Perhaps you could start a club here? Maybe one of the Professors has danced professionally before?" If not, it'd still be worth a try.
