STAY WITH ME ; ni-ki

CHAPTER 7

Riki tilted his head, eyes not leaving the mirror as he eyed the students behind him in their reflection. His brows furrows when he caught most of them not doing the choreography right.

Heeseung gave it to him today to teach the students alone, as he's 'kinda' busy this week. Perks of being a famous choreographer and performance director in Seoul.

The ravenette sighed, clapping his hands calling everyone's attention. "The trick in this move, is to put all of your weight on your left feet so you can do the move without having any problem. " He says, facing the students who are panting, beads of sweat evident on their foreheads and temple.

"Just like this" He added and did the move once again.

Riki's brow perked up as he instinctively look at the side corner, finding the spirit there who's clapping her hands and gave him a thumbs up with her lips formed in a wide smile.

"You great great teacher! Nice move! " She exclaimed.

Riki wanted to reply and remind her about the rule about talking to him in public places but since they are not alone in the room, he held himself and faced the students instead.

"Try it again. " He says, crossing his hands to his chest as he eyed the students once again.

And just like that, the students did the move once again but this time, they did the move right which ended the room full of cheer coming from the students.

The afternoon went rather well than Riki expected. They're participating and actually listening to what he's saying. And they're doing great too.

Maybe because he's teaching them well despite the spirit distracting him for every fucking minutes or they're really good at catching up. It's either one of the two.

So after the batch of students who scheduled in the afternoon class left the room, the ravenette goes to where his bag at and took his tumbler, chugging the water down.

"Classes done, are we going home now? "

Riki glanced at the spirit who's sitting down the wooden floor then shook his head.

"There's still another batch who's scheduled in the evening. " He answered, grimacing upon feeling his wet hair against his fingers when he ran his hand through his locks, pushing his bangs back.

"So there's still evening class? " Amber asked. "Morning class, afternoon class and evening class, don't you think that's too much? "

Riki cocked a brow. "It's fine as long as I'm getting payed well. "

"Aren't you tired though? "

"I am, that's why I have two hours rest before the next batch come in. "

Amber just nodded her head as Riki sat there close to her as they engaged themselves a new topic.

The next batch soon arrived one by one, some of them are earlier than the given time but majority of them arrived just in time.

Another four hours passed before Riki found himself going inside Heeseung's car who fetched him after the dance class.

"You okay? " The older asked once the younger was inside.

The ravenette hummed, muttering 'I'm fine' all the while glancing— not so obviously— at the back to see if the spirit is there.

Amber waved her hand and gave him a smile when their eyes met causing the boy to cough.

"Just tired. " he added as the older started driving towards the direction of the younger's house.

The drive from the studio to Riki's home wasn't that long. That's why after a few minutes, Heeseung parked the car in front of the house, fear is a bit evident in his eyes.

Riki chuckled.

"Hyung I swear, there is no ghost or monster in that house. You shouldn't be afraid. " He commented, earning a coughed from the spirit at the back.

"What am I then? " She asked while playfully looking at the ravenette who just rolled his eyes upon hearing what she said.

"Yah I know I'm scaredy cat but you don't have to roll your eyes, you ungrateful brat! "

Right. Heeseung is with them.

Riki wanted to defend himself and tell him it's for the ghost behind them but chose to shut his mouth instead.

"Sorry Heeseung hyung. " He apologised. "But really, since the day I moved in that house, I felt or see nothing. "

"Oooh really? " Riki had to bit his lips to not say anything upon hearing the spirit's melodic yet teasing voice.

"I'll get going then, hyung. Drive safely. " And with that, the ravenette get out of the older's car and walked inside the gate and in the house with Amber trailing behind him.
