Claire's POV:

I'm going through the different files that my main boss wants me to go through and edit. There's some new videos the guys filmed recently and I have to edit them and upload them onto the channel. Which isn't a problem, but he also wants subtitles and I don't understand what the guys are saying. I'm just going to go ahead and edit the videos together and then I'll ask someone if they can help me with the subtitles. That's all I can really do for now. J-Hope and I made plans for us to meet up in the dance studio so that I can show him the dance routines that I know. All of the guys are pretty much here today for work, but J-Hope is probably going to be the main one that I see.

J-Hope's POV:

I can't believe that I'm actually getting alone time with Claire today. I was trying to ignore my feelings seeing how Yoongi and Tae were acting, but as soon Claire said she likes dancing, she got me. I know getting alone time with her in the future is going to be difficult and I'm going to enjoy this. I just hope no one else shows up. I don't even know if Claire knows that we like her. My main competition at the moment is Suga, I don't know who is second. She's the closes with Suga, so I have to have more today to get closer to her. 

I've been dancing for the past hour and I'm sweating my ass off. Jungkook and I have already worked out some choreography, but I told him that I would come up with the rest. And when I'm done I have to teach the guys. I'm laying on the floor, staring up at the ceiling and catching my breath. I'm getting close. I hear a knock and the door opens, "J-Hope, I'm off work now." I quickly sit up and smile at her. She's out of her work clothes and is in gym clothes. She closes the door and drops her bag on the floor. "How was work?" "A bit stressful, I was told to put subtitles in the videos, which you know is a problem for me." "Did someone at least help you?" "Yeah, thank god. They said when you guys have your next dance down that I have to film it." "We should be ready in two weeks. Three tops. I have to teach the guys it and we have to make sure it's perfect." "Understandable. Are you ready for me to show you?" "Yeah, which one do you want to do first?" "Hm... How about Danger." "You got it."

I set up the music for her while she stretches. "How did you manage to figure out a routine for one person?" "I looked at the main dance moves and that's how I pieced it together." "Are you ready?" "Yep." I press play, the music blasts through out the studio. As soon it's time to dance she starts. I lean against the mirror, she has a serious face but that's what the song calls for. She's hitting every move correctly and I watch her in amazement. I wonder how long it took her to learn this. After the song is done, she's breathing hard and she smiles at me. "What did you think?" "That was awesome!" I run up to her and hug her, the first time I actually get to hug her. She starts laughing, "J-Hope you're all sweaty." "Well so are you," I smile down at her. I keep my arms around her, slowly sliding them down to her waist. I wonder if she's noticed that I am. She smiles at me and holds my shirt a bit, "well I hope you brought a change of clothes." "Trust me, I did." "Good." I let my hands lightly sit on her waist, either she hasn't noticed her or she doesn't care. Either way, I'm happy. "So how about you teach me some new moves," she grins up at me. I grin at her and move my arms to rest on her shoulders. "Gladly. Hope you can keep up."

We're laying on the floor, breathing heavy, and really sweaty. "That's some work J-Hope. You're really good." "You're really good as well." I turn my head and smile at her, her hair is sticking to her face and her eyes are closed. I look over her, god she's hot. I'm glad her eyes are closed because this is the first time that I'm actually checking her out. I would love to hold her in my arms again. I wonder... She was comfortable earlier... I quietly move to her side, she's still cooling off and her eyes are closed. I lean over, placing a hand on each side of her. I look over and my eyes stay on her mouth. Her mouth is hanging open from breathing heavy and I bite my lower lip. "I need water," she breathes out. She quickly sits up and her head bangs into mine. We both grab our foreheads and groan in pain. I'm such an idiot for doing that! "Are you okay!?," she asks. "Yeah, I'm fine. What about you?" "I'm okay. I'm sorry about that." I don't even think she noticed with how I was leaning over her. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom and change." "I'll clean up and meet you out there. I'm done for the day so I can go back with you." "Sounds like a plan." 

She gets up, grabs her bag, and leaves. I'm such an idiot for doing that, but that the same time I'm glad that I did that. I get up and start cleaning up. "I saw that." I jump and quickly turn around to see Jungkook. He looks annoyed. "Saw what?" "I was looking in the whole time. How you were staring at her, how you leaned over her. That was so creepy." I look away from him and finish grabbing my stuff. "And why are you bringing it up?" "I could tell what you wanted to do. You're forgetting the rules aren't you." "I haven't forgotten." "Then act like." "Oh like you wouldn't do the same if you had the opportunity." He goes quiet and looks away from me. "Knew it. Now if you excuse me, I'm meeting up with her and we're going back home together." I walk past him but he grabs my shoulder. "Don't do anything stupid like that again." "It's about who wins her over, all is fair play until someone breaks a rule." And I'm going to use this dancing to my advantage. I can tell that Claire is eager to learn more, which means more alone time with me. 

I get to the bathroom and Claire comes out shortly. I smile at her and hold out my hand, "you ready to go?" "Yep," she smiles and grabs my hand. We walk through the building together and some of the members stop and look at us. We keep walking and I see manager with Nam Joon. "Hi sir!," Claire says happily. Manager looks at our hands and smiles at Claire. "Hi Claire, how was your first day?" "it was good! Thank you so much for the job." "It's not a problem Claire. I see that you hung out with J-Hope." "Yeah, I showed him a few dance routines and he showed me some of the new choreography." "Really, don't tire her out J-Hope. We need her to be able to work." "I promise sir." Nam Joon eyes me, he knows what's up. But we all know Claire doesn't know. I wonder how long it's going to take her realize it though.
