Take My Hand
"Oh god oh god oh god." Kelsi huffed nervously, wringing her hat between her hands before placing it back on her head. "Why am I doing this again?"
"Because you love me," Ryan responded instantly as he sunk into the chair of the theatre, glancing over at her. "And... because it's a requirement." A sour look crossed over her face and he offered her a supportive smile, nudging her gently in the side with his elbow. "Hey, come on. It's not all bad."
"Screw the requirements," Kelsi hissed. "I didn't get into this school because of my acting talents."
"Hey." Ryan reached out and grasped her hand in his own, watching her intensely until she turned to look back at him. "We're in this together, Kels, right?"
Kelsi sighed and offered him a small smile, conceding with a nod, "... Right."
Ryan beamed at her, moving his hand slightly to lace his fingers with hers, and together they waited for their theatre instructor to make his grand entrance.
I have no clue if Julliard requires all their students to take an acting course. Probably not--that's not really fair--but, alas, for the sake of fanfiction. :)
