"Oh?" He reached to pick up a little shining chain from a shelf at the opposite end of the small room, alongside a piece of paper. 

Give this to someone you love ;) ~KSJ

Could it be...? Jimin wondered. Was it his Jin, Seokjin hyung, who left that necklace, that note there? Coincidence much?

As he dragged the broom from the room, he inspected the thing in his hand again. 

It was an average sized chain, one that could fit anyone's neck. The silver needed a little buffing, but overall it looked quite new. There was a star as a pendant, and in the centre it held a dusty honey topaz.

He pocketed the piece of jewellery and headed back out to sweep the living room, but not before making a mental note to visit Seokjin.

Seulgi wiped the sweat of her brow as she stepped to her dance bag that she placed next to another girl's. When she had stumbled through the doors at exactly 3:59 that afternoon, everyone turned to her just as the instructor popped into the studio beside her.

"New girl?" The instructor had looked her up and down, as if calculating if she'll succeed in this class or not. After all, it was the most advanced and usually, no new kids joined. "Kang Seulgi is it?" 

"Yes ma'am," Seulgi panted, some of her dark bangs sticking to her forehead. 

"At least your on time. Quick, lower your breathing, we're going to begin." She strolled to the front of the dance studio, by the mirrored wall and pulled her phone out as the girls began stretching and warming up. Except one.

"Hey, Seulgi, is it?" 

"Hm-?" The dark haired girl looked up at the sweet looking girl beside her, who had a warm smile on her face.

"Irene." Said the girl, who had large eyes and high cheekbones. She was gorgeous.

"Nice to meet you." Seulgi smiled as they headed to an empty space at the end of the studio to warm up together.

"So, how come you're here?" Asked the curious Irene as she reached forwards to reach her toes. Seulgi did the same and turned to answer the question.

"Because I do dance?" 

"I mean, how come you got into the advanced class? We've never had a new student join since ever." Irene separated her legs and pulled them out into a smooth right leg split. Seulgi looked to do the same, until she realised she can't. She gulped before opening her straddle splits as wide as she could, (which is not much) before stretching forwards.

"I'm not sure. I just got an email that said to come here at this time. I sent in a hiphop routine as an audition if that helps?"

"Oh, that means-"

"All right girls! For this term we're doing hiphop!" Grinned the instructor, who had now pulled her hair into a tight bun at the top of her head. 

"Ah~"

So here Seulgi was, drinking water, exhausted as hell beside her new friend Irene. 

"Whilst you drink water, lend me your ears." Said the instructor, who was tired herself.

"Lend her our ears?" Seulgi giggle-whispered to Irene.

"Yeah, it takes awhile to get used to her talking. She was raised in England."

"So girls," Ms. Eli spoke sharply which silenced the chattering girls. "At the end of this year, we're going to be performing a hiphop routine and two others. However, we won't be doing it separate from the boys this year." As soon as she finished her sentence, excited chatting broke out between the 12 girls.

"Does that mean we'll be practising with them now?" Called one girl named Wendy.

"Yes, and they should be here any minute. They have learnt their part of the hiphop routine and you have learnt yours but for the rest of this routine and the other two, we'll be learning together." When Ms. Eli finished, three firm knocks cracked on the wooden door, before a male instructor and 12 boys entered the room.

Immediately, the girls started talking in hushed whispers as the boys put their bags down.

"Hey Lisa, you know, the boy over there? Yeah, I've heard of him, he's a senior, his name is Hoseok but all the dancers call him J-Hope. Apparently he's really good." Whispered one of the girls. 

"Yeah, he's great, but check that boy out. Never saw him last year, I'm guessing he's new."

"Probably, let's check out his dancing."

"Whoa, he's hot."

"Yeah."

Seulgi looked over to the boys and found two faces she recognised: Hoseok and another one, who seemed to be the subject of Lisa and Jennie's whispering.

Jungkook.

Huh. He dances.

"Alright then! We'll be putting you into pairs for the rest of this routine that Ms. Eli and I have been working on." Boomed the male instructor. "For the girls who don't know, I'm Mr. Key and I'll be working beside your instructor here to make you guys the best dancers in Seoul."

Mr. Key began reading off random names from the girls list to match with the boys. Irene earned a couple of jealous stares as she hopped up to join a cute boy named Lucas and so did Lisa when she got Hoseok: the best dancer.

"We have two new members to the advanced groups, so we'll be putting them together as we only have a vague idea of how good they are at dancing. Jungkook, you'll be paired up with Seulgi."

Seulgi stood and strolled casually to Jungkook and some of the girls shot her jealous looks as she got one of the better looking boys.

"So you dance?" Jungkook asked her, his fluffy black bangs shifting as he cocked his head with a smile.

"Yeah. Been doing it for awhile." She replied, a smile playing on her lips too.

"To be honest, I'm so relieved that I was paired with you. The other girls seem so intimidating. But you're new and so am I, so it makes me less uncomfortable. Not to say that you don't intimidate me, I mean you're probably really good at dancing, it's not a bad thing." The boy added the last bit quickly when he realised he might've just insulted her.

She's pretty cute. I can see why Jimin might like her.  He thought as she re-tied her shoelaces.

Luckily for him, she just laughed. "It's mutual." She replied with right before Ms. Eli hushed the crowd by explaining the next part of the dance.
