Nico is ballroom dancing.
It's suave and sinuous and revolves around romance
(Hiding under the beautiful clothing and fake smiles)
It has heart and passion and partners
(They feed off each other and rely on the other)
Demonstrated on smooth, wood dance floors and in contest
(In front of everyone, being judged constantly)
It's tense and stressful and painful
(But it hides its hard work and imperfections)
And in the end it still enchants and mystifies and glistens
(Spinning and sliding and fast-to-slow paces and Latin beats)
It does it well
(It knows it does too)
(At least most of the time)
It's a façade with slicked back hair and silky materials
(Which hides the throbbing heartaches and muscles of running, but not always catching want it wants)
It takes rehearsingrehearsingrehearsing
(And in the end it pays off)
Because everyone wishes they could be just as smooth

Chad is ballet.
It's graceful and elegant and revolves around beauty
(Hiding behind perfection and poise)
It has solos and stories and main characters
(A single spotlight and all the attention)
Demonstrated in recitals and shows
(Showing off all the hard work, even with the sacrifices)
Its pain inflicting and hurtful and strenuous
(But it hides its flaws and insecurities)
And in the end it still sparkles and shines and glitters
(Gliding and jumping and soaring and twirling)
It does it well
(It knows it does too)
(At least most of the time)
It's a façade with stage make-up and glamorous costumes
(Which hides all the bruises and scars, making it look so pretty and others so jealous)
It takes practicepracticepractice
(And in the end it pays off)
Because everyone wishes they could be just as perfect

Grady is hip-hop dance.
It's bubbly and different and revolves around individuality
(Hiding beneath colorful costumes and quirky movements)
It has groups and routines and upbeat tempos
(Everyone moving as one and using teamwork)
Demonstrated in group competitions and free styling on streets
(So everyone gets all the praise, and it's never just one person)
Its tiring and wearing and continuous
(But it hides its exhaustion and pains)
And in the end it still excites and enlivens and bounces
(Jumping and fast beats and quick movements and spinning)
It does it well
(It knows it does too)
(At least most of the time)
It's a façade with sweat bands and flexible clothes
(Which hides all the uncertainties and wants, being easy to agree with by going with the flow)
It takes patiencepatiencepatience
(And in the end it pays off)
Because everyone wishes they could be just as easy going
I had a Sonny/Chad angst, but I was about to post and suddenly went: 'Wait, I could do the 'Chocolate' one for the girls, and make this for the boys!' So, this was born. It's a little different, and there are a couple of hidden meanings, like the spinning and twirling (whoever guesses that, and understands, gets major props). I hope you liked it :) Show me by reviewing, possibly maybe?? Oh, and the next one will be up either tomorrow or the next day.
Next up: Sleep; Sonny/Chad; Fluff/One-shot

Updated: Ok, newer author note. I'm posting these three chapters, and then tomorrow I will post the next (sleep), or maybe tonight if these are received well. I would've added James to this, but I honestly couldn't be bothered. Have no fear though (if you had any…), there is one I have written that is centered around him! Again, sorry for the wait. I have some one-shots and chapter stories I'll be posting soon, so expect those… Anyways, thanks a bunch for everything! The favorite-ing and reviewing and alerting… It means so much! I hope it's not too much to ask, but could you review if you favorite? Pretty please??? Thank you!
P.S. I might be looking for a beta soon, if you are interested or know a really good beta who will accept me, please let me know! I'll check out the beta profiles. Thanks!
