❝ So you become their source of oxygen, and they become your source of light and everything in between is water and fire ❞
In which two lost souls that once knew each other find themselves together in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

❝ If it means getting burned and wrapped up in the golds of flames, or embarrassed, I would rather take this dance and light up this floor. Except, I don't know how to dance ❞

C H A P T E R F O U R T E E N
KEVIN AWKWARDLY SITS AT A TABLE, watching Sunwoo and Eric dance to the beat of the music, neon lights from the ceiling shining on them. Playing the conversation earlier about his best friend's situation in his mind, a gentle smile tugs on his lips.
Eric allowed Sunwoo to act as if he was his boyfriend for the night. Looking closely, Kevin notices the sparkle in the blonde's eyes glitter.
He knows from how comfortable he is with the auburn, that there's more than physical attraction. It could be unrequited love, which breaks his heart, knowing Sunwoo has feelings for Chanhee.
Was Eric lying about his feelings for Juyeon, or was Sunwoo, his first love?
Hearing a voice call out his name, the brunette turns around, slowly standing up.
The red cup in his hand plops to the floor, water spilling, and the beat of his heart echoes, registering the boy in front of him.
Kevin doesn't move, doesn't speak. He doesn't know what to do and the night he confessed to Jacob rewind in his mind, a heartbroken playlist with sullen melodies. He needs to run away, to get out, to escape-
Kevin begins to make his escape but stops, freezing as if he's been caught in a lie.
"Can we start over?"
Kevin closes his eyes and opens them, turning on his heels to look at Jacob with a flat smile.
He simply answers, "I've got somewhere else to be, sorry. Maybe next time?" He walks away in runaway model fashion, mentally cursing at howstupidhis words sound, and accidentally bumps into Juyeon.
The drink in the cup he was holding knocks over and Kevin panics, eyes widening as an arm wraps around his waist, shielding him from the wine splashing over him.
And suddenly the music in the room fades out.
And everyone is looking at them. At the boy with dark brown hair, sharp chocolate eyes darkening, turning to face him. The lights from above hit the sliver of the collar around his neck, clad in a jean jacket, and jeans hugging his legs.
"Can I have this dance?" Changmin says, voice soft. There's a hint of certainty and the smile blooming on his lips resembles the softness of cherry blossoms.
"I don't know how to dance," Kevin says, his heart beating fast.
Changmin takes a step forward and envelops an arm around Kevin's waist. He pulls him close, holding Kevin's gaze spiraling of a universe somewhere called home, and all its stars. "Just follow my lead and keep your eyes on me, okay?" he whispers.
