Imagine #79 -- Taemin of SHINee

I walk into my dance studio, dumping my bag in the corner and finding my IPod. I had slept in this morning accidentally, my alarm clock not going off at the right time. It was my daily routine to come here and dance, as the saying goes, Practise makes perfect. I plug my IPod into the stereo, choosing one of the many songs to dance to. After an hour of dancing, and doing easy songs I guess, I decide to try a harder song. As the beat starts I start moving, practising with all my energy and trying to perfect the parts I hadn't perfected yet. One part of the dance I hadn't done, knowing it was too difficult even for my level of dance, was approaching. My face become determined as I only slow down slightly, getting ready to try the difficult move. I stumble but catch myself before I fall. I sigh, waiting for the music to come to that point again as I try again.

"Ah!" I shout out, falling on my leg.

"_________-ah!" I hear someone shout, running to me. I turn and see Taemin coming out from the corner of the room, apparently he was sitting so still I hadn't even noticed he was there.

"Are you okay?!" He asks me, putting a hand on my shoulder, looking worried.

"Yes I'm fine... What are you doing here?" I ask him and he blushes a little, embarrassed.

"A few days ago I was walking past and I saw you dancing. So I came here early the next day to watch you but you were already here, practising. Every time I tried to beat you here you would already be here, early in the morning all through to the afternoon. I guess I got lucky today" He smiles.

"I slept in today by accident" I tell him, smiling slightly.

"You're a really good dancer and you practise so hard, but don't hurt yourself" He tells me off, standing up.

"Are you hungry? come eat with me" He asks me, holding out his hand to me. I look at him for a few seconds before reaching up and taking his hand slowly. He smiles at me and helps me stand up. 'Owww...' I think to myself, apparently my leg hurt more than I'd like to admit.

"Are you sure you're alright?" Taemin asks me, seeing my expression when I put weight on my leg.

"I think so, let me try..." I tell him, testily putting weight on my leg. My leg gives way, not being able to hold me up and I expect to hit the ground again, but Taemin quickly catches me, wrapping his arms around my waist. I stand up, putting my weight on my other leg but Taemin doesn't let go.

"Taemin? Are you going to let go?" I ask him, but he just shakes his head.

"Ah... Why not?" I say, looking at him, confused.

"I don't want to" He says, shifting his hands and pulling me a little closer.

"I really like you ________-ah~..." Taemin says, bringing his face closer to mine. I felt myself blush, trying to step back by reflex at his closeness. He just holds me where I am by my waist, looking at me with his face in front of mine.

"I-I like you t-" I start to respond but Taemin presses his lips against mine softly. My eyes go a bit wider before closing and I return the kiss. When we pull apart, we stand there for a few minutes, looking at each other with or foreheads touching. My stomach growls loudly and Taemin laughs a little.

"I guess we should go eat now?" He asks and I smile, nodding.
