DAY-5: CONTEMPORARY
Early in the morning with bags on his shoulder, Jimin and I were walking towards the hall which I hadn't entered in a while.

My contemporary class.

We met each other in the same hall, became friends, best friends and then lovers. Dance was something we admired a lot. Both of each other and our own selves. He was a swan who unfolded his wings beautifully while dancing and my melody while I danced.

"Chaerin", he called out to me, as soft as a feather, and I looked at him with my doe eyes, "Get changed. We have to practice and then we have a show in the evening."

My eyes were as wide as saucers, "S-Show? How can I perform when I haven't entered this class for ages?"

I knew the problem was with me. Jimin had always been the best dancer and so it wouldn't be difficult for him to prepare the dance in 2 to 3 hours. "You will perform. I know my Chaerin is the best dancer." He passes to me his eye smile but I really had no faith in me.

"Jimin you are saying this just to make me feel better. Please don't. We can change our plans and do-"
"You will perform", he said once again, pressing each word upon me, and it casted a spell on me. I couldn't feel myself anymore and I unconsciously nodded, "But you'll be my teacher Jimin."

Taking a swift turn he kept me on the floor and rested his head against my neck. We both were breathing heavily. It was our 10th time practicing this dance. I had no courage to even start but because of Jimin I was able to end it nicely too. And now I was sure, with Jimin by my side I can do anything.

"Let's take a rest for a while then we'll change the outfits for the performance", I nodded weakly as he passed me a bottle of water, "Did you take your meds?" I sighed as a sudden uneasiness came running in my mind, "Is it necessary for me to eat them? I don't want to", I blurted without even giving a glance to Jimin who was looking at me without even blinking his eyes. "Yes", he sternly said and it was enough for me to shiver.

I was feeling nervous all of the sudden even though Jimin was by my side.

What if I forgot the steps?

What if I tripped and fell?

What if I had a wardrobe malfunction?

What if my dance wasn't impressive?

What if my performance made Jimin's dance look ugly too?

My eyes were staring at the void while the mind was busy making its own scenarios when Jimin suddenly pressed his warm hand over mine, "Don't overthink. You won't mess up."

His words suddenly brought in me a ray of hope and I passed to him a small smile, "I love you", he nodded his head and turned towards the other direction, "I know."

Swirling twice, I took a huge step and embraced Jimin who lifted me up and wrapped my legs around his waist. He swirled holding me and gently sat on the floor. We leaned closer, ending every inch of space between us. Our heads touching and body sharing the same heat. Pushing me away from him he stood up elegantly and passed me his hand which I accepted. I bend my body to the right while my hands sway in the left following the rhythm of the song. Jimin did the same too. And finally I swirled twice and jumped a bit higher with closed eyes and landed in his hold. He rested his lips against my waist and we ended our performance.

The whole hall echoed with applause making me feel ecstatic. He made my dream to dance as partners in front of everyone come true. He shared with me his wings today. We were so happy to show our love with such a wonderful dance. He was making me fall so deep for him and I never regretted it.

I loved this love I had for him.
