Amby blinked. “Is it?”

Dorian nodded. “It is.”

Ohno smiled.

The server grinned. “It’s about time.”

He chuckled, and Dorian smirked.

Amby’s phone alerted to a text, and she sighed. “Illu is ready to work me over. Thank you very much for lunch.”

Ohno grinned. “Do you need to grab any equipment?”

Amby groaned and thudded her head to the table. “Yes.”

Dorian held her chair. “Come on. Let’s get you set up.”

She grunted as she got to her feet, and he held her arm. She looked up to thank him, and he kissed her softly.

Her head spun, and when he lifted his head, she was pressed against him, and his hand was on his mark under her shirt. She was dazed and leaned out of his embrace slowly.

Ohno snorted and eased her over to him. “Come on. Illu is waiting.”

She really wanted to kiss Dorian again and looked over at him as Ohno led her away. He smiled and joined them as they got her equipment from the manor.

The studio still smelled of wax and oil, and Illu was waiting. “So, you have had a rough morning?”

“Yeah. The waterfall was taller than I thought.”

Dorian chuckled.

Illu froze. “You went to the top of the falls?”

Amby smiled. “Yes, and now, I have regrets.”

Illu wrinkled her nose. “Stiff?”

“Oh, yeah. I could barely lift my arms to eat.”

“Well, we will warm you up slowly. Are you going to get your camera set up?”

“Yup. I will be with you as soon as I can.”

It was like moving underwater, but she got the phone tripod up and angled it to catch the dance instruction.

Ohno and Dorian sat in a corner, and Illu served them tea.

“You are kidding.”

Illu shrugged. “They both have an interest in you.”

“Yeah, but my dancing is going to be a Frankenstein stumble today.”

“Well, let’s raise the dead. Come on.”

Amby started the recording, and Illu started the music.

The instructor focused more on posture and correct movements.
