In the backstage area of the Henley Hall Auditorium, the bustling and excited cast members have been preparing for the opening performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream. The atmosphere was being electric with anticipation and Neil, dressed in an elaborate Puck costume is pacing near the wings. His expression was calm but his eyes betrayed a spark of excitement and anxiousness. Knowing that it was the first time he would be performing in front of an audience.

Neil was always eager to make a connection, he found herself drawn towards you being a girl from Henley Hall which was that all-girls' academy. You were standing slightly off to the side tuck away behind some props softly mouthing your lines.

You were wearing a soft flowing lavender dress that shares faintly in the dim light and your hair was styled in a loose updo with delicate curls framing your face you look every bit the part of Hermia with an aura of quiet determination surrounding you.

Yes, He had heard about the partnership between Henley and Welton for this production, but he had never met any of the Henley girls in person before, But still something about you being a girl piqued his curiosity and before he could stop himself, he walked over.

He sidesteps towards you casually, "Hey, Hermia.," he greets you warmly with a soft giddy grin. And you, the girl was glancing up startled for a moment before noticing the Puck costume. His confidence was almost effortless as his smile caught you off guard, but you quickly composed yourself.
