Seven With You (BTS x Reader)

Part 4

It was the next day.

You had decided to stay late after practice. You hadn’t had anything planned for the evening so you figured it would be best to get as much practice in as you possibly could- the concert would creep up on you before you even realize it and you wanted to be prepared.

You sit with your legs together, stretching your back and trying to touch your toes. You struggle a little, your body was extra stiff today after yesterday's practice… probably from all of the strain on your muscles, this is the most you’ve ever practiced in such a short amount of time.

“Hey, Y/N. What are you still doing here?” You hear a familiar voice echo through the empty studio, it was J-Hope.

“I'm trying to get some extra practice in since I don't have as much time to learn to choreo as the other dancers.” You grunt between words, still attempting a full stretch.

“I'm not doing anything right now. Let me help you!” He smiles, getting down on his knees on the floor behind you. “Open your legs as far as you can.”

You do as he says, open your legs up in a V shape as far as you’re physically able. He then puts pressure on your back with his hands, leaning your torso forward until your forehead touches the cold floor. 

“For a dancer you aren't very flexible.” He laughs.

“You don't have to rub it in!” You laugh as well, as painful as it was.

You hold that position as he quietly counts down. He runs his fingers along your spine as he counts, taking you by surprise and sending shivers down your back. When he reaches one he removes his hands and you quickly sit yourself back up.

“Now, lay down.”

As you lay down on the broad of your back you look up at him, his face looks very focused. He was in full teacher mode. 

He climbs across you, straddling one of your legs and taking the other in his hands. He pushes it up above your waist. As he does, a sharp pain shoots through the muscle in your thigh.

“Ahh!” You tense up.

“Sorry, are you alright?” His face softens a bit as you nod. “Let me know if I'm hurting you, okay?” 

After holding your leg in place for a moment. He switches to the other one, this time taking caution to be more gentle. As he does so you can hear somebody else enter the room and you turn your head to see who it was. 

“What are you guys doing?” Namjoon puts his hands on his knees, grinning down at you.

“I'm trying to get some extra practice in for the concert!” You reply as J-Hope releases your leg and you get up off of the floor.

“Do you mind if I watch?” Namjoon asks as he helps you up.

“Not at all.” 

“Didn't you say you were busy tonight?” J-Hope interjects.

“I do have a few things to do but I’m free right now.” He finds a spot and sits against the wall. “Don't mind me, continue!” 

Jhope looks annoyed but continues to help you practice, he was a very good teacher… although a bit of a perfectionist. 

As you practice you watch yourself move in the mirror, occasionally catching a glimpse of Namjoon watching you in the reflection. He rests his chin in his hands, watching you intently with upturned lips. Having him look at you that way makes your heart race but you are unable to lose focus as J-Hope keeps you in check.

After practicing for what seems like ages you finally finish up. Your lungs burn and you gasp for air, that was intense.

“You did really good today! I wish I was not a part of a concert so I could watch you perform from the audience.” Namjoon compliments you and hands you an icy bottle of water.

You look down and take a sip of your water, trying to hide the smile that crept across your face.

To your surprise Namjoon uses his hand to carefully raise your chin. He takes out a cool damp cloth and gently wipes the sweat from your face. 

“That feels so nice… Thank you.” You sigh. 

“Of course.” He nods. 

After collecting your belongings and saying goodbye to J-Hope and Namjoon you head to the shower room. 

You close your eyes and let the water hit your face. As you think about the events of today blush and you smack yourself in the cheeks, snapping yourself back into reality.

“I need to get my feelings in check before I embarrass myself any more than I already have!” You bite your lip. “They are just being nice… There's nothing else to it.”

You dry yourself off and put on a clean change of clothing. You tie your wet hair back out of your face and make your way out into the hallway.

As soon as you step out of the room you run into somebody, hitting your nose off of their shoulder.

“Hey Y/N! You haven't got home yet?” Jin raises his brows in shock.

“Yeah, I was just on the way out.” You reassure him. 

“It's chilly outside. You'll catch a cold if you go out with your hair wet like that.” He motions for you to follow him. “Come with me.”

He takes you to an empty makeup room, reaching into one of the cabinets and pulling out a hair dryer.

“Welcome to Jim's hair salon. Please take a seat!” He jokes.

You sit down in the chair and laugh as he spins you around. He takes out your hair tie and softly pulls a brush through your hair. You close your eyes, this was the most relaxed you had felt all day.

“Do you like it when people touch your hair?”

“Yes… I could fall asleep.” 

He turns the hair dryer on a low setting and gently runs his fingers through your hair. 

“Your hair is so soft and healthy Y/N.” His voice suddenly gets close to your ear, causing you to open your eyes. “It smells really good too.”

The warmth of his breath on your face causes your cheeks to flush. He stands upright again, pushing your hair to the front of your shoulders. 

“We're all done!” The seriousness leaves his face as he teases you again. “How would you rate your salon experience?”

“10/10 would come again!” You giggle. 

“Please do.” he smiles warmly.

You thank Jin and get up to leave.

“Do you need a ride home?” He asks, looking concerned.

“No I'm alright, but thanks for the offer!” 

“Anytime Y/N, please get home safely.” He pats you on the head lightly.

“I will…see you!” you wave to Jin and leave the studio alone…
