The Dancer In Our Hearts

Ch.10: New Day

Veera POV

“Mum! We’re home!” I yelled as I stepped foot into the house with the six boys following behind me.

“Hello Mrs Wu!” Yixing, Chen, Xiumin, Tao and Luhan said in unison causing my mum to burst out in laughter.

“So polite! Come and sit down! Dinner is ready!” My mum said as she ushered us to the table where the smell of her delicious cooking was at.

“It looks delicious Mrs Wu!” Yixing said as the rest nodded in agreement practically drooling at its aroma.

“Thank you boys, please sit.”

We had a wonderful meal while me and mum decided to tell many embarrassing childhood stories to the boys about Yifan, with Yixing pitching in here and there. Needless to say, we all had great fun. Well maybe not so much Yifan who was burying his face in his hands begging us to stop talking.

We bid them goodnight as Tao, Luhan, Xiumin and Chen left for home. We all went to bed to get ready for a new day ahead.

“Veera! Veera! Veera! Wake up!” Yifan yelled while jumping on the edge of my bed.

“Okay! Okay! Okay! I’m up!” I got up crankily. He left the room while I changed and got ready for school.

“Morning mum! Morning Yixing!” I said as I saw everyone at the table eating breakfast.

“Your own brother doesn’t get a greeting but Yixing does?” Yifan looked at me in disbelief.

“You annoyed me this morning.” I said and stuck my tongue out at him. He scoffed and got up to put his plate in the sink and went to his room.

I ate breakfast as I talked to Yixing and soon Yifan came down and told us we were leaving in three minutes. I scarfed down the remaining of my breakfast and ran upstairs to get my bag and phone.

“Let’s go!” I yelled and ran out the door to Yifan’s car.

“Why are you so happy?” Yifan questioned as he started up the car.

“We have dance class today! Woohoo!” I cheered and Yixing laughed.

“It’s fun! The routine is awesome!” Yixing said.

“Yet you couldn’t remember to actually attend dance team practice yesterday.” Yifan rolled his eyes as we pulled into school.

Boa was waiting at the entrance for me and she ran up to me when she saw us.

“Sweet ride! Morning Veera! Kris. Lay.” She said. They nodded in greeting then left us hang out with the rest of EXOM.

“I still can’t believe he’s your brother. But anyway, you liking school so far?” Boa asked

“Totally! Dance class today! I can’t wait!”

“The dance is great and Mr. Yunho is an amazing teacher! And dance is first period!” We ran to class ignoring all the weird looks.

Again, I heard music coming from the room and I shushed Boa and sneaked to look inside. Kai and Sehun were both dancing as music poured out of the speakers.

I watched as they danced in sync with each other until Boa nudged me forward.

“Hey Sehun! Kai.” She greeted them. They stopped the music and we sat at opposite ends of the studio. Soon, Eunhyuk and Yixing came up to us and we talked until the bell rang and the teacher walked into class.

“Morning class! Let’s continue with what we have been doing and Veera sit aside and watch first? I heard you learn very fast from yesterday. I will give you your position later.” I nodded and went to sit in front of the mirror as Boa raised her eyebrow at me and Yixing looked at me knowingly since I had been like this since young. Dance moves had always been very easy to pick up for me.

The music started and I watched them. Specifically Kai...
