Chapter 12:

"And then, you turn your head like This with the string" Zhanghao demonstrated, showing the others how to do it.

Everyone else tried it out, Zhanghao nodding once they did it correctly.

"Thank you" jay thanked him, going over some other moves with Ricky.

Zhanghao had always been pretty fast at picking up choreographies, so it was no surprise that he knew most of the Dance even though he Practiced only for a day.

He took his water bottle, sitting down in one corner of the practice room.

Zhanghao drank a bit, before placing his head on his lifted knees.

He couldn't stop thinking about the kiss. It was in his mind at every time of the day.

He wanted to do it again, so so badly. But he knew that this week would be hectic. He can't believe that they're almost done.

They've gone such a long way, and the ending being not so far away seemed like a dream.

"You okay?" Kuan Jui asked him, sitting down besides him.

"Yeah, just can't believe it that we're almost done"

"It feels unreal. But hey. Let's go on Mcountdown" Kuan Jui stood up again, joining the others while practicing.

Zhanghao looked around, noticing that his cute hair clip wasn't in his hair anymore.

"Maybe I Lost in on the way to the bathroom?" Zhanghao whispered to himself, walking to the bathroom.

When he walked over there, he heard music coming from the Say my name team, and decided it wouldn't hurt anyone if he peeled inside.

When he did, he saw only Hanbin dancing, practicing in the front.

"Wait?" Zhanghao frowned, looking closely.

And then he noticed it. His Emoji hair pin in hanbins hair.

He probably had found it on the floor and decided to keep it for the time being.

Zhanghao shook his head smiling, knowing that his favorite hair clip would be secure if Hanbin had it.

———-

Zhanghao took a deep breath, knocking on the say my name practice room door.

"Hao hyung! What is it?" Yujin opened the door, smiling.

"I need to ask Hanbin something"

"Oh sure, wait I'll call him" Yujin went back inside, and a tad bit later he was standing with Hanbin in the hallway.

"Hey" Hanbin smiled, happy that Zhanghao had come search for him.

"Listen, i'm sorry if I'm bothering you... but there is kind of a part in the over me dance break that includes tutting, and I was wondering if you could maybe teach me it?" Zhanghao went straight to the point, not wanting to waste any time.

"Of course I can! I'm happy that you came to me for help" Hanbin agreed, dragging Zhanghao into the practice room.

"Where are the others?" The younger asked, noticing no one else was inside.

"I gave them a small break. They seemed exhausted"

"And you don't need to rest?" Hanbin asked, grabbing the iPad which was laying on the floor.

"I can manage"

They started watching the video together, and Zhanghao was impressed when Hanbin learned the part in under five minutes.

Hanbin started showing Zhanghao what he had to do, correcting his moves every now and then.

After half an hour or so, Zhanghao had mastered it perfectly.

"Thank you" Zhanghao said sincerely, wiping his forehead.

"You're welcome." Hanbin smiled, leaning closer to Zhanghao.

The olders eyes went quickly to look at the camera, as he tried to take a step back.

"I deserve a reward though, don't you think?" Hanbin whispered, letting Zhanghao step back.

"Maybe, after I performed Over Me" Zhanghao winked at the younger, leaving the room to join the other in their break.

Hanbin was stunned, no way.

Had he agreed?

———-

Days flew by, Hanbin and Zhanghao had no Time to talk, both too occupied with their performances.

Hanbin hadn't yet returned the hair clip to Zhanghao, but That didn't matter. The older boy changed it every day anyways.

Currently, they were on their way to the outfit rehearsal, where they had to fit on their outfits to see if everything would be alright for the performance.

"Then you have to tie it like this" the stylist demonstrated, tying the red string around Zhanghao's arm. He tied the other one himself, before going to help the other members with it.

"Hao hyung, you Look very sexy dressed like That" Jay complimented him, and he was right.

The pants with the slight corset tightened the white blouse around Zhanghao's waist, making it look extremely slim.

"Do I?" Zhanghao smirked, turning to show off his outfit.

"Yes, many people will go crazy when they'll see you perform" Kuan Jui winked at him, and somehow Zhanghao felt like he knew something.

"Guys! If you are all set, then we can start going on the stage to start the rehearsal" A staff member announced, guiding everyone onto the main stage.

Jeonghyeon and Ricky went first, as everyone else followed suit.

"We will ace tomorrows performance, won't we?" Zhanghao spoke to his team, looking at every single of them.

"I'm proud of you guys"
