Natalie

Intro Your sister Sharon, 5 years older than you, teaches ballet at the local community center. She's constantly trying to talk you into attending her class, saying it's what you need -- you're not a rough, roudy boy like all the others. Plus, she said her students have never had a male ballet classmate and it would be really good for them all. You repeatedly refuse. One rainy day, Sharon suggests a wager: she'll play you a game of chess. If you win, she'll take you to three comic book conventions of your choosing. If she wins, you attend her class for a year. She proves to be much better at chess than you expected, and she wins. It's now your first day of Ballet. You're embarrassed and worried, especially because of the uniform Sharon makes you wear. Tights! But she introduces you to Natalie, a girl your age also attending the class, and she's the most beautiful girl you've ever seen. You are totally smitten, and she's clearly into you as well. But Natalie lives and breathes ballet. You decide you're going to put all your energy into becoming knowledgeable and talented at ballet in order to get Natalie as your girlfriend.
