Steal His Heart - Hyunlix

Pride and Joy

Jisung pulled Minho into the back room and closed the door behind them gently.

The lights were still off, causing the older to furrowed his brows in confusion.

"Jagi.. what are we doing here?" He chuckled with amusement when Jisung held his hands over his eyes, using his elbow to switch the lights on.

The younger squealed softly, clearly struggling to contain his excitement. "I have a surprise for you.." He mused softly.

"Wh-"

"You have been such an instrumental part of making this center what it is and getting the crowd that we have here tonight. I know you finish school in the summer and that your dream has been to open up a studio of your own..." Jisung explained sweetly, planting a kiss on his boyfriend's shoulder as he slowly lifted his fingers off Minho's eyes.

It took a second to adjust to the light, but when his eyes did, the dancer was faced with a completely cleared out back room, covered in mirrors from three sides. Along the two shorter walls were ballet bars and giant speakers hung from the back corners.

The old rusty shelving units had been removed and the scratched up floors completely replaced with shiny flooring that had enough grip to be safe but was smooth enough to allow seamless moves.

"Wha..." the older started, feeling a mixture of intense emotions from confusion, to elated, to shocked, and finally amazed. "How did you do all of this..?" He asked out softly, almost unable to process everything as he took slow and hesitant steps towards the center of the room.

"Well... I had some help.." the younger smiled, opening up the door and waving a couple of people inside.

Minho turned around with a raised brow, but his expression quickly softened and he let out a chuckle, looking at the three students from the dance group that he had been helping out as they prepared for their dance school auditions.

"You guys..?" He asked out in disbelief, feeling his eyes start to gloss over. Quickly, he wiped them, refusing to let any tears fall.

"Don't go soft on us, Lee Know." the big mouthed senior that reminded Minho a little too much of himself groaned enreadingly.

The oldest looked at him with a raised brow, a mixture of amusement and confusion present on his face. "Lee Know?" He asked with a cringed expression, although it was clear it was playful.

One of the other girls laughed. "Yeah, because your last name is Lee and you know everything. Lee Know."

Minho chuckled in amusement and bowed gratefully. "Thanks, you guys. I can't believe you did all of this.." He cooed genuinely.

The same boy who announced the nickname crossed his arms over his chest. "Well... we do have a condition.." He raised his brow challengingly.

Both Jisung and Minho looked at him questioningly. "What..?" The younger of the two asked, hinting a 'what the fuck' expression to signal that wasn't the deal.

The boy smiled mischievously and pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket, passing it to Minho, who accepted it hesitantly and opened it up.

Jisung watched over with impatient eyes as the dancer's own scanned over the sheet of paper. He let out an audible breath of relief when the older smirked and folded it back up.

"I think that can be arranged.."

Jisung looked at his boyfriend questioningly, who simply passed the note and smiled. The younger opened it up and let his eyes scan the same words... a written request to officially get on the waitlist for private lessons with Minho when the studio finally opened.
