Maria was hyperventilating, and Max was trying desperately to calm her. "We're good, Maria, we have nothing to worry about, breathe!" He told her, shaking her shoulders. "Do you need your Cyprus oil?"

"There isn't time!" Maria gasped as their number was called. "It's our turn!"

"Just feel the music," Max whispered before pulling her out onto the stage.

Maria ignored everyone, even her friends and Mrs. Mackenzie, as the familiar music began. Max was singing softly as they began the dance, and she sang back just as quietly.

Soon, they were once again lost. The music took them over, the lyrics poured from their lips, and the audience watched and listened in awe. They had never seen anything like this, and it was obvious who was going to win.

Maria's mother had tears in her eyes, as did Max's. She leaned against the other woman, whispering, "Those are our babies!"

The song ended, and Maria's head was touching the floor, Max's lips inches from hers. He pulled her up slowly, and they turned to the audience, bowing silently at the thunderous applause.

They both ignored the fact that they had almost kissed in front of hundreds of people.
