One-shots [ kepat ]

2. Am I Still Your Laoshi?

Because of the rankings order, Daniel and Patrick couldn't sit beside each other.

~××~

Today is just another practice day for INTO1 members. All eleven members are practicing on their dancing individually. Rikimaru and Santa are helping the other members to perfect their dance moves.

"Do you want some water?" daniel asks patrick, they are on their break sitting at the corner of the practice room together.

"Sure" patrick nods with a smile.

Daniel stands up and walks towards the box of water bottles at the other side of the room.

While waiting for his water, suddenly AK LiuZhang plops himself next to patrick.

"You're sweating like crazy" patrick says looking at AK.

"Yeah, I'm exhausted" AK breaths heavily since he just finished dancing nonstop.

After next second, daniel came back "Patrick, here" he passes the water bottle to patrick.

"Thanks chou gege" patrick says teasingly.

Daniel rolls his eyes fondly at his cute didi, "You're welcome chou didi" then he sits back down next to patrick. That means patrick is sitting in between daniel and AK.

Patrick laughs cutely, he opens his water bottle and gulps down almost half of it. He's exhausted from all the dancing.

"Gonna get me some water too" AK suddenly says, he's about to get up when patrick stops him.

"Here take mine" patrick offers his bottle to AK out of kindness.

"Thanks patrick" AK happily take the bottle and finished it in one go.

Daniel saw everything that's happening and he's kind of taken back by that. To make it simple he's jealous because patrick gave his used water bottle to AK.

Not just that, he also realised that patrick and AK are getting closer with each other lately maybe because whenever they were filming group activities, the two would sit next to each other due to their rankings order and daniel would be far away from patrick.

"Let's continue practice daniel, you need to help me with some moves cmon" patrick says, grabbing daniel's hand to help him up on his feet.

Daniel smiles at the skinship, "Sure let's go".

The two continue practicing together.

The next day - into1 is getting ready to film their group promotion video

"Patrick, don't worry if you're struggling with chinese just talk in english I'm sure the fans will understand okay?" Daniel says to patrick. He always gave out comforting and reassuring words to patrick before they go on stage or right before filming anything. He just loves taking care of the younger.

Patrick nods his head, "Got it" he says with a thumbs up.

"Good boy" daniel pats patrick's back softly.

"The set is ready" a staff came interrupting daniel and patrick.

Daniel and patrick obediently follow the staff to their group set, there are 11 chairs, 1 for each member.
