Road to acceptance ( Chaeryeong x female reader)

*Chapter 5*

Y/n pov

Today was my free day and I planned to go practise with Chaeryeong unnie at the studio. I reseverd the practise room a few weeks ago, because what else to do on my free day?

"What have you planned on your free day, let me guess, it has something to do with dancing."

"Ding ding ding, you're correct, but I won't be alone this time."

Eomma just looked at me confussed.

"I thought you liked the alone time?"

"I know what I said, and it's true, I do like that, but I heard what you said about opening up and making friends, so I've descited to give it a go."

"Omg, the first time my daughter is acctually listening to me!"

"Yah, don't flatter yourself ma"

"Anyways, who is it then?"

"Do you remember the main dancer of Itzy, Lee Chaeryeong?"

"Is she the one who was on Sixteen with her sister who is now in Iz*one?"

"Yes that's her. She asked me to teach her some things about dancing with your emotions."

"Wait a minute, now I think about it, Lee Chaeryeong is the one you were drooling about when we watched Sixteen!"

"If I try to deny that statement, will you believe me?"

"So..."

"....I mean...she is still adorable..."

"Let's just keep it at that for now"

She smirked and pushed me towards the door signalling for me to go before I was getting late.

Time skip>>>>>>

I was doing my warming up when the door opened and Chaeryeong unnie walked in and placed her bag besides mine.

"Hey, warming up?"

"Oh hi Chaeryeong unnie, I got here a little early so I watched Lia unnie's class first."

"Just call me Chaeryeong, no need to be formal with me when you're 3 months younger."

I just nodded and she also did a small warm up and when I was done I sat on the floor and watched her until she finished. For some reason she just fascinatas me. I can't explain what it is, but it pulls me towards her and I want to get to know her more and more.

She sat down next to me when she finished.

"Ok, so dancing with emotions is all about embracing your feelings and letting your body move on it's own. "

"Take something that your struggeling with right now and focuss on that feeling. Allow yourself to let it out and take control of your body."

"Next thing, is the music. It's not always nessesery, but it allows you to connect with your feelings more and helps as a guideline for your body to move to."

"The only thing you need to do next is just to focuss on the feelings and think about nothing else, and your body will follow."

"I have prepared something, to show you how I like to do it, because I have these feelings all the time."

I was about to show something that I have never showed someone before. This was a big part of my life, and in a way, this was the first time, I shared my deep emotions to another human being. I'm pissing my pants.

I felt everything. It's like I'm going trough the same thing with her. She must feel so much things and you can see it's hard for her to talk about. She has something that I really like about her. It's a feeling I can't describe, and that makes me happy but scares me at the same time, because this is new.

She ended and just sat in the same possition as she ended in for a few secondes.

I scoot over to her to check if she is ok. I touch her shoulder and it tightens but relaxes right after.

"That was beautiful"

"Thanks...."

"No, thank you, for showing me a part of yourself. It must've been hard for you."

"Dancing with your deepest darkest emotions by yourself is one thing, but it's hella scary when it's infront of somebody else."

"Do you wanna talk about it?"

She looked in my eyes and her eyes softened.

"Someday I'll tell you, but I can't just yet."

"Anyways...I'll hope you have a song ready in mind, because it's your turn. Nothing serious and special just yet, just some freestyle and moves to get to know your feelings and connect with your inner feeling."

Now it was my turn to do this.
