They teeter back and forth, side to side, their muscles quivering in anticipation.
The world is inverted. Hands down, feet up.
Oliver and Marcus track each other's movements as their legs move in one sinuous motion, rotating their bodies until they are right-side up. Marcus brings his arms together while extending his long limbs and thick back towards Oliver. Oliver smoothly eases out of range, twisting underneath, his arms sheltering him safely from the burly man's would be blows.
His movements are not wasted, Oliver snaps upwards and outwards. His arms are open but held at the ready, his lean muscles turning clockwise, leading the pair around. Oliver's leg lifts up and around, but Marcus retracts his body and ducks, and Oliver narrowly misses.
Marcus brushes his fingers on the cool floor, finishing the movement. His dark eyes meet Oliver's, his sooty eyelashes drop low as he dips his head.
Oliver gains his balance, right foot steps back and his body twists - his hands are flat on the ground and Marcus is already tucking his head and body as low as he can go. Marcus doesn't stop, his back stretches as he unfolds himself and suddenly he is on his hands, upside-down, teetering side to side, back and forth.
It's Oliver's turn to dip his head and tuck in his chin, shooting forwards in a dive that stops just inches from Marcus' slick chest. Marcus blinks, conceding that Oliver could have touched him but didn't, and brings his legs down, landing softly while Oliver curls back into position.
Oliver is in the middle of turning, turning, leading the dance around in a circular motion when Marcus extends one leg and snaps his bare heel. Oliver hears the soft whoosh just next to his ear, and his breath catches.
