My Boyfriend Sabotaged My Final Dance Chapter 9
Asher's eyes turned red.He shot to his feet."Elena..."You... you were already accepted? You entered the competition just to be there with me?"I didn't look at him."I'm sorry... I didn't know..."He stumbled a step closer."I thought—with your technique, one more year wouldn't matter..."Watching him suddenly fall apart made me sick.I poured another drink and lifted it toward the dancers who had been mocking me minutes ago.Now they were staring at their plates like they wanted to disappear into the floor."To everyone here. I hope your careers go well. Take care of yourselves."Then I set down the glass and walked out, past Asher's red-rimmed eyes and Mallory's ashen face.After that dinner, I cut off contact with the company completely.I still had more than two weeks before I had to report to New York.The next morning, I got a text from an unfamiliar number.[Elena, I still have your competitor badge and your state ID. You'll need your ID when you report to the

"I'm very happy to be here tonight," Mr. Dempsey began."Our company's overall results at the competition were outstanding."Asher and Mallory both passed Metro Dance Theatre's audition cutoff. Well done. Congratulations to you both!"Asher and Mallory exchanged pleased smiles.Then Mr. Dempsey searched the room.His eyes found me in the corner.His expression immediately warmed with pride."And the dancer I most want to recognize tonight is Elena."The entire room froze.Asher's smile vanished.Mallory's eyes flickered with doubt.Gavin was the first to speak."Mr. Dempsey, what for? Elena didn't even dance the final."Mr. Dempsey frowned."Didn't dance the final?"His smile turned to confusion."What do you mean? Who told you she didn't dance the final?""She said so herself!" Heidi pointed at me."She never entered the holding area that day. And at Asher's banquet, she showed everybody a fake national placement letter."Mr. Dempsey, don't let her fool you."Mr. D

Someone reposted Mallory's relationship announcement in the new chat with a heart-eyes reaction.[Asher and Mallory are unstoppable. Metro Dance Theatre's power couple.][This is what actual talent looks like. Not like somebody who screws up, disappears, then fakes a national placement letter. Now the results are out and she can't even make a peep, huh?][She's probably crying under her blankets right now. Imagine having to train another whole year. Hahaha.]I swiped away without expression and left the group again.A message from Mr. Dempsey appeared immediately afterward.[Elena, where have you been these last two weeks?][Tomorrow night is the company's end-of-season dinner. I have something important to announce. You need to be there.]I stared at the message for a moment.Mr. Dempsey had been good to me.For three years, he had pushed back against upper management so I could develop my own solo repertoire.He had been instrumental in helping me qualify for the American

The moment we got home, Dad couldn't hold it in any longer. His voice was serious."Elena, tell me the truth. What happened today?"Why was that Penrose boy so sure you didn't dance the final?"Did you enter the holding area yesterday or not?"I knew I couldn't hide it anymore.If I stayed quiet, Mom and Dad would keep feeling guilty over ending a lifelong family friendship without knowing what Asher had actually done."I never entered."I said it calmly.Mom stared."Even with the direct placement, if you registered to compete, you should have finished properly. A competition isn't something you treat casually."I met her eyes."I didn't enter because Asher kept my competitor badge and my state ID."Keeping my voice steady, I told them everything that had happened outside the theater, from beginning to end.When I finished, Mom was shaking."He could have ruined your life. Our families have known each other for years. How could he do that to you?"Dad said nothing.He

On Mom's phone was the official digital acceptance letter from the American National Ballet.My information was printed clearly on it, along with the official electronic seal.Asher stared."American National Ballet... direct placement?"Mallory's mouth twitched before she forced out a smile."Mrs. Winslow, are you... are you sure that's the right file?"The Principal Artist track only takes a handful of dancers from the entire region, and there are multiple evaluation rounds."Elena... I know her fundamentals are strong, but how could she possibly get in without anyone hearing about it?""Why couldn't she?" Dad cut in coldly."For three years, when has Elena not ranked first in your company's evaluations?"Why is a national placement so unbelievable?"Asher's eyes shifted.Then he suddenly smiled like he'd solved the mystery."Mr. and Mrs. Winslow, I understand. Elena missed the final. You're her parents. Of course you're hurting."You want to spare her some embarrassmen

The Penrose and Keene families had gone all out.They rented the ballroom of a five-star hotel.Almost everyone from our dance company was there, spread across several large tables. My parents and I were seated at the head table with Asher's parents."Martin, Diane, Elena—come on, sit down!" Mr. Penrose said warmly.Our parents exchanged pleasantries and congratulated Asher and Mallory on their performances.Not long after, Asher and Mallory came over to our table with glasses of sparkling cider to make a toast.Asher was dressed formally.He glanced at me, a hint of mockery touching his mouth.Then he sighed theatrically."Mr. and Mrs. Winslow, I'm honestly glad Elena came."After she withdrew from the final yesterday, I thought she might be too embarrassed to show her face."Silence hit the table.Mom turned toward me."Elena. What does he mean, you withdrew?"Dancers at the surrounding tables were already leaning closer, delighted.I hadn't told my parents because I w
