[There isn't too much plot involved in this oneshot, just a lot of fluff. If you enjoy romantic tension without too much plot, this is a chapter for you <3]

"Your wrists are dropping. Make sure you're always rotating your arm from here." I pointed to Jun's elbow with one hand. With my other, I turned his palm to face the front of the room, where we were reflected in the mirror.
Jun, in a black shirt, black pants, and white socks, held the barre with one hand and outstretched the other in second position. Behind him, I saw myself: shiny hair in a neat ponytail, red leggings and a hoodie over my tights and leotard.
Our eyes met.
His gaze was full of concentration which was something I liked about adult ballet learners; they were always so eager to hear and observe. Even better, I could explain nuances between different choreographic choices and they'd be quick on the uptake.
"Try it out yourself," I said, stepping back.
Squaring his shoulders, Jun tilted his hand up and down, getting used to the feeling.
"Does it feel better?"
Jun nodded and flashed me a smile. "Sunbae, what are you doing after this?"
"I've got to teach two more idols," I told him. "I can't go out for drinks tonight."
"But you're always busy..."
Resisting the urge to giggle at his whining, I shook my head. "I think your company would be very mad with me if I went day-drinking with you instead of teaching your hoobae her new choreo."
"Hoobae? Which hoobae? We have a lot."
"Do you listen to Le Sserafim? Kazuha."
He nodded. "A little. I know Fearless. 'What you looking at? What you what you looking at?""
"Then I have my first appointment with NCT's Johnny. You know him too, right?"
"Johnny? How many idols do you teach?"
"Currently only you come full time, but plenty of idols have worked with me for different projects. Mina... Lisa... Renjun used to come weekly... even Nako once," I said, trying to count on my fingers. "Also, I'm scheduled to help on an idol show in two weeks and I have no idea who's confirmed yet, so that's going to be more."
Jun's eyes were wide. "You've met, like, half the industry!"
"I guess," I said, "but it's not like the idols care to be friends and go out to coffee together. It's just a business relationship."
"'Just a business relationship?'" asked Jun, sounding wounded. I couldn't help but feel like I'd just kicked a puppy. "Are we not friends?"
"I didn't mean you, Jun." I scrambled to rectify my mistake. "We're friends, but not many idols stick around for classes like you. Usually, I'm contracted to work on a project and get paid by the company. I'm glad you came here yourself. I love teaching you and I think ballet is a useful endeavor no matter what dance you're doing."
