Chapter 17 - "Walking Down The Street, My Steps Come To A Halt"

"Wow, I didn't know you dance too," Ace looked at a smiling Rocky who apparently made a bet with Bin on who would win the dance battle they were soon going to have.

"You don't still know a lot about me. But don't worry, we've got all the time." He replied, his gaze never leaving hers. 

Jihyo, who sat exactly beside Ace eyed her, suspiciously. "Girl, you didn't tell us that you guys were now at this point." She signaled to the unending eye contact between them. Ace, though, quickly reverted back. 

"Yeah well, we are at this point now so?" She bit her lip, not wanting to get lost in his pretty eyes again.

"We are not here to discuss who's at what point. Rocky, be ready in five." Bin dismissed quickly, going over to fix the music speakers at the right end of the studio. 

When the dance started though, Jihyo could only wish for one thing. How good it would've been if she never saw him swirl his body in those killing moves like that. Now all she felt like was a pervert, who, despite knowing that it's disgusting to drool, was drooling. She felt the urge to touch those abs that peeked out every now and then as he jumped and his shirt flew. To worsen it, the way his arms formed balls each time he lifted them up to do the 'knock' choreography made her want to squeeze them under her touch, She felt like screaming her lungs out.

On the other hand, Ace's eyes focused on was the way his hair stuck into his eyes, irritating him and how he rotated his head effortlessly to get rid of them, in process, making it look like it was a part of the dance. She couldn't help but stare at those long legs that weren't as long as Bin's but still that jumped slightly higher and moved, for her, better than him. Safe to say, she nearly had a heart attack when he smoothly spun around, fell to the floor with one leg in front and got up straight to end his dance break. 

They both weren't in their senses until they heard faint noises and both Bin and Rocky were standing in front of them. 

"Are you that blown away eh?" Bin smirked, chugging on a water bottle.

As if on cue, Jihyo startled up and pushed Bin away until he was out of the studio. As she did so, Ace was only startled by a soft peck on her flushed cheek and she knew it was better to kick him out too.

"God, I couldn't breathe." Jihyo inhaled, locking the door.

"What if I died, seriously? My heart was bursting." Ace mumbled, wiping away a small bead of sweat from her forehead.

EN walked past the hallways after collecting her average grade on the revision test when a sight caught her eye. She walked over to Jinjin leaning his head on the railing, eyes closed. 

"Hey," she poked his arm. Startled, he looked up and gave a weak smile, "Hi."

"What are you doing here? Is it not your Math's class right now?" She asked, leaning her back at the railing so she could face him. 

"I skipped." He shrugged. 

"Ouh, why? You don't look the kind to be skipping classes."
