Then you look back at me, and suddenly I'm helpless
Oh, look at those eyes, oh (look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit)
I'm helpless, I know (down for the count and I'm drowning in 'em)

Helpless from Hamilton the Musical

(Sorry y'all, I'm a slut for musicals 🤪)

3rd Person POV

Johnny was still processing what Mark and Jaehyun had revealed to him when he walked into class the next day. Many thoughts and questions were flying through his brain, but the biggest question was 'Where did he go wrong?'
Years of killing, seducing, and fighting had made him a master at his craft. So why was Ten seducing him instead of the other way around?

He had not only done that, but he had captivated Johnny's mind and nearly his heart. It was all happening so fast, and he barely had time to process it. No one could steal his attention and focus like Ten, but Johnny couldn't seem to accept it. He was determined to succeed at his mission and keep his emotions in check. That was the plan, until Johnny saw the pain in his ass, known to others as Jungwoo, playing with Ten's hair.

"That prick," Johnny mumbled.

Ten caught Johnny's gaze, and they both felt butterflies fluttering around inside them. Johnny plastered on a smile before walking over to him.

"Hey Johnny! Sorry I had to cancel practice yesterday," Ten said. "I hope you're not mad."

"At you? Impossible," Johnny replied.

Ten swooned internally, and Jungwoo glanced at Johnny. He made it so painfully obvious that he was into Ten, but did nothing for him. For some reason, Ten was eating it up, and that frustrated Jungwoo. Johnny had ditched Ten, and Jungwoo had swooped in to be his knight in shining armor. So why was Ten not falling for him like he was for Johnny?

"Let's get this party started," Taeyong skipped into the room.

"I'll see you later," Jungwoo ruffled Ten's hair before leaving.

Johnny reached over and smoothed down the shorter's hair that Jungwoo had just had his hands on. Ten blushed, and Johnny took pleasure in the fact that Ten was blushing because of his touch.

"Ten LOOK!" Lisa poked Ten's arm and gestured over to the girl who had followed Taeyong into the room.

"Everyone, meet Jennie Kim," Taeyong said when the girl came to a stop beside him.

"Hello everyone!" She showed off a dazzling smile that nearly made Lisa melt into a puddle on the floor.

"We're doing group performances for a competition," Taeyong told her. "I'm thinking you could join Shotaro and Lisa and perform Hwasa's part in the song."

"Sounds good," Jennie replied. "But who are Lisa and Shotaro?"

Shotaro raised his hand, and Ten had to raise Lisa's hand for her because of how taken with Jennie she was.

"I thought you were straight," Ten whispered as Jennie walked over to them.

"Me too," Lisa whispered back.

(Basically me and my friends when I first realized that I like girls 🤭)

"Hi," Jennie said to us.

"Hey," Ten replied.

"You're Lisa?" Jennie turned to her.

"Lalisa Manoban, but you can call me whatever you want."

Lisa slapped a hand over her mouth as Jennie and Ten busted out laughing.

"I'll keep that in mind, but for now I'll just call you Lisa," Jennie smiled.

"O-Okay," Lisa was still trying to recover, and Jennie looking like a goddess didn't help.

Hey everybody!!! I was originally going to update tomorrow, but I'll be busy with school so here y'all go!
