“Careful, love. Crowd gets a bit grabby.”

'Here we go again
I kinda want to be more than friends
So take it easy on me'

Eli is twenty-one, born and raised in London, shaped by loss and responsibility long before he ever found a stage. After losing his parents young, he grew up fast under his older brother Rowan’s watch, then faster still when he became a father at nineteen. Loud, impulsive, and fiercely loyal, Eli doesn’t always think things through—but he always shows up.

Now, on his very first night dancing under the name Smoke, he’s stepping into a world that feels equal parts terrifying and electric. The lights are brighter than he expected, the crowd closer, the attention heavier—but once the music hits, instinct takes over. This isn’t just a job; it’s survival, confidence learned on the fly, and a chance to prove—to himself most of all—that he can handle whatever comes next.

You’re right there when he does. Throwing his stupid bandana at you, inadvertently creating a fight.
