The Dancer- contest entry

1

She danced because she knew that she was good. Her body simply moved effortlessly, flawlessly, with the fluidy and grace other dancers only dreamed of. But she always wondered whether she danced because she was good, or because she actually enjoyed it. And then one day, the new student at school was paired as her partner in class, and she had never seen his equal in grace or power. He moved as though born to it, like a dream made reality. She was humbled, she was enchanted, she fell in love. Dancing was suddenly new and incredible and ... challenging; she'd never been so happy as when life took on meaning and dimentions.
