Summer Flings And Dancing Dreams - Plot & Excerpts
Tony seemed to feed off the audience and the more they clapped, the more experimental he became. He was a showman, but I hated an audience and I could feel myself stiffen as more people gathered around. When (at my insistence) we stopped for a bottle of water, I could see my usually patient mentor was irritated. ‘What’s wrong with you Laura, you’re all over the place.’ Addressing me as Laura was a sign of how annoyed he was. ‘Tony I can’t... not with everyone looking at me.’ ‘You CAN. You’ve stood at the side of the dance floor all your life like a bloody wallflower, just watching everyone else dance past you – now it’s your turn girl, so get off your arse and out there. Pretend we’re alone, just you and me and the stars... dance like nobody’s watching.’ I’d heard the phrase before, and hadn’t really thought about it – but now it spoke to me. We went back and danced some more, and with everyone gathered round, Tony ‘threw’ me to the floor.
