The Marlowe Performance Institute revolved around dance classes, parties, and performances that lead to an excess of limping or tired dancers trudging down halls but the atmosphere was always lively. The culture of dancer clothes was very prominent with tiny tops and big baggy joggers and a lot of girls had boys didn't bother as their schedule was so intense.There were a lot of spirited and beautiful people on the streets of Manhattan.One of those beautiful people that a lot of people knew very well was Charlie Gillespie.Charlie came from two starving artist parents, he went to college but dropped out in the first month as he realised he was more of a free spirit. He got a job working at the local mechanics and loved it whilst the rest of his friends had better jobs He was a player and slept with a lot of women and wasn’t really the type of guy to do girlfriends, he had an easy genuine smile, warm brown eyes, nice broad shoulders and a tall lean build with large muscles and olive skin. He was the type of attractive that was dangerous, always subtly flirting but also genuinely a lovely and genuine guy. He wore nice clothes, baggy joggers and jeans, nice shirts, sleeveless and his pants always had his boxers perfectly peeking out.Still, beneath the small smirk and constant teasing, there was something strangely addictive about Charlie. He lived in a big studio apartment full of record decks and guitar strings, huge mattress big tv on the wall type style.His closest friend was Aaron Hayes, another university student and band member who was the lead guitarist Backing singer in Charlie’s band the Wallows. Aaron was nearly as infamous as Charlie, though in a louder, colder but sweet way. Where Charlie was openly charming, Aaron carried effortless arrogance. Drew Topp was still the golden-boy drummer of the band, loud and confident but unexpectedly loyal to the people he loved. He was already happily dating Hailey Miller, who was a dancer in a younger year but was also amazing .There was also Fez the pianist and percussionist who was quieter, Samuel with his easygoing charm, and the constant stream of people and party girls that filled the Wallow’s social scene.And somewhere in the middle of all that noise was Madeline Clines.Unlike most girls orbiting the busy life in Manhattan you were dedicated as fuck to the grind, you weren’t chasing parties or attention outside the dance world. You existed in the same world as Charlie Gillespie Madeline has a best friend Caira who was the chillest girl ever, she went to the same college for dance but always skipped and went to open auditions but they were really close and lived in the same area. They always go on morning runs together and make sure to catch up a lot. They are on the same school campus but respect each other's privacy.
