pass midnight : 29

"like this?"

"yes. precisely."

"okay."

"good, you're getting
the hang of it."

"I think I am."

"you learn quickly,
I'm a bit embarrassed."

"thanks, hyung.
but please don't be."

"no, I think I prefer
being embarrassed.
I have all the right to be."

"why though?"

"nothing."

"stop avoiding me hyung."

"you're too good
for me, jungkook."

"you're such a liar."

"and you're such
an asshole."

"I think I'm immune
to that already."

"you better be."

"is it because you'll
start calling me that
again?"

"I probably will."

"I'm not too good
for you, hyung.
I think you have it
all mixed up."

"I know what I don't
and do know.
stop educating me
and just dance with me."

"why are we doing
this anyways?"

"just because."

"I might not accept
that answer."

"but I didn't ask you
if you should or
shouldn't accept
my answer."

"still might not accept
it, means you have to
tell me the real
reason why."

"there is no real reason.
that's all I can say."

"someone told me
once that you just
know a liar when
you hear one."

"very clever."

"why are we doing
this again? it's way
pass 1 am, hyung.
don't you need
rest or something?"

"you know, jungkook,
you ask too many
questions.
I wanted to do 
something else
for a change.
I figured you're getting
tired of just lying around,
talking all the time
so I wanted to drop
the routine in exchange
for this."

"but waltz? this is
what they teach at
a nursing home.
I feel so old already.
I feel like the years
have caught on
to me."

"I feel that every
single day."

"I don't.
right now's
the only time I
feel this old.

"who even chose
the music? i can't tell
whose preferences it is.
yours or namjoon
hyung's."

"it's namjoon's"

"i'm a bit surprised."

"well, what can you
suggest then? 
I feel somewhat
betrayed because
of this. 
I thought you'd
appreciate-"

"I do appreciate it!
I really do! it's just that
I was never a fan
of ballroom dancing or
anything as lax as this.
it's always been
go, go, go, you know?"

"whatever.
I didn't waste hours
trying to learn the steps
just to be shot down."

"I understand."

"let's both just live
in this moment, okay?"

"okay."

"alright.
remember to step
back with your
right foot, then
step back with the left
foot so that it's parallel
to the right foot when
I have mine the
opposite way."

"right foot, step,
wh-what?"

"our figures are
directly inverse."

"if you use your
left then I use
my right?"

"yes."

"is this the third figure?"

"I haven't been
counting."

"it seems like it."

"step forward with
the right foot,
then the left foot."

"okay and?"

"step forward with the
right foot so that
it's parallel with the left
then bring the left foot
to the right."

"uh-huh, okay, got it."

"oh shit, wait, no,
you were supposed
to bring the right foot
to the left before you
stepped forward with the,
fuck, you know what?
forget this."
