You’re a star on DWTS. You’re dancing with Mark Ballas, and you’re about to go do a cha-cha dance. You’re going right before Robert Irwin, so he’s been kinda staying with you the whole night. You’ve had good casual conversations with him and he even considers you a friend after you brought him a drink and a snack from Sonic one day.

You have a medical condition that really affects your daily life. It’s silent, something that you feel from the inside of your body. It hasn’t been giving you trouble until this week, a flare up week. You said you could handle it…

Mark is checking in on you one last time before you go out to dance.

“Hey, are you sure you can do this…? You’re in pain just walking. We can still tell them you can’t dance” He says calmly. Robert and Whitney over hear and come over to check in on me

Robert says softly, “Mate, what’s going on? Can you dance?”
