My Lifeline - Jaywon Shortstories

Frost

Jay opened up his computer and prepared his  earphones. The video was about to be released and he didn't want to miss it.

The notification finally came up, and Jay pressed play on the video.

The music began and TxT members started dancing. Jay was mesmerized by everything: the choreography, the clothes, the facial expressions. All of it was on point.

Especially the choreography. Jay wanted to cover it as soon as it began, and he knew very well which part he wanted.

And which part he could do too.

He watched it three times, already analyzing the movements and seeing who would fit the parts best. As soon as the video finished, he stood up, running out of the kitchen.

He found almost everyone he wanted in the living room.

"Guys" he said, louder than necessary. "Have you seen the choreography of Frost? Txt just released the special performance video!"
"Not yet Jay" replied Niki, concentrated on the card game he was playing.
"Let's watch it" said Jay, turning up the tv.
"Can we finish our game first?" asked Sunoo.
"No time" replied Jay, not even turning his head.

The maknaes looked at each other, Jay was acting different from usual.
"Okay press play" said Jungwon, putting his cards down.

They watched the video together, and Jay was relieved to see they liked it as much as him.

"I want to cover it" whispered Niki as it ended.
"That's why I came so fast" explained Jay. "I was thinking that maybe you guys would agree to cover it with me?"
"Sure!" answered Sunoo.
"That could be really cool" added Jungwon. "Especially after Yeonjun participated in our album."

"Exactly!" said Jay, trying to contain his excitement. "I've already thought about the parts, nothing set, but just an idea."
"What did you have in mind?" asked Sunoo.
"Well, I was thinking Niki for Yeonjun's part, Sunoo for Hueninkai's, Heeseung for Soobin's, Jungwon for Beomgyu's and me for Taehyun's" explained Jay.
"What about Sunghoon and Jake?" asked Jungwon, worried they'd feel left out.
"They're already planning another cover together aren't they?" replied Sunoo.
"I think they are" said Jay.
"I like your part repartition hyung, it would fit well" said Niki.
"Do you all agree?" asked Jay.

As the younger members agreed, Heeseung entered the living room with a bowl filled with ramyeon.
"What's up" he asked, as he noticed every one in the room looking at him.

They were in the practice room, Niki coaching them into learning the choreography.
The dance had several moves in which they had to directly interact with each other. 

"So now, Jungwon you face me and Jay you hug him from behind" explained Niki, showing Jay the hand movement on the screen.

Jay nodded. He had planned this moment from the first time he had watched the video. Even though they were just learning the choreography, hence not giving their all doing the moves, Jay enjoyed hugging Jungwon from behind.

He sensed that it did something to Jungwon too. He felt the shiver down the leader's spine, and he enjoyed it.

Jay quickly glanced at the mirror and saw in his reflection that he was smiling. He tried hiding it, because it was a bit too obvious. Jay heard a little chuckle and turned his head, only to find Niki looking at him suspiciously with a side smile.

They continued training, and all enjoyed learning the dance. After a some attempts, they had learned the base of it.
"Should we train a bit separately too?" asked Heeseung.
"Yep" replied Sunoo.

They did so, but after five minutes, Jungwon walked towards Jay.
"Wanna train the hug part?" he said in a low voice.

Jay looked at him. Jungwon was wearing the orange hoddie he had given him. He was smiling as usual but his eyes had a different sparkle.

"Sure Won" replied Jay, getting into position.

Jungwon waited and on Jay's count, he started dancing, excited to feel Jay's hands on him again.   Jay turned and hugged Jungwon from behind.  His hands slid up on Jungwon's chest. In his head, Jungwon imagined the hands going up higher to his neck, chocking him lightly. He imagined Jay whispering things that he shouldn't say out loud in his ears. For a second, there was no one else in the practice room. Everything was still, except for their hearts racing faster and faster. Soon, Jungwon could feel Jay lips on his cheek, slowly kissing their way to his own lips. Jungwon would reach for Jay with his hands and-

"Jungwon?" said Jay. "Why aren't you moving anymore?"

"Nevermind" replied Jungwon, heavily blushing.
