Saturday came, it means another Cheerleading practice. The SM High Cheerleading squad consists of 25 members. But as of now they have 16 members,somof them graduated or transferred to other school, that 6 of them are not participating because they are either suspended or have injuries and they have enough lifters. For now they have 10 people on the squad without the Council members and the basketball team. Taeyong accompanied the flyers to the practice with Winwin to show him around and help him to adjust. Jaehyun did the same with his team with Yuta and Taeil. Ten stands in front "Okay. Guys attention. Since we don't have enough flyers, bases and lifters. I have some Council members as well as the basketball team to help us up. Don't worry they know the basics. And now we're going to show them some group stunts. Okay?" Ten was answered with chorus of yes among his squads. After series of toss and group stunts, they proceed to do a mini pyramid with Ten on top. All is good until one of the flyers lost her hold on Ten. Ten brace himself for the impact but it never came. He opens his eyes and saw a face "God is that you?" "Thanks for the compliment but good guess" Ten eyes adjust and saw Johnny's face. "Oh Satan" "A thank you would be nice" Johnny put Ten down and one by one the squads and the Council members approach him to check on him.
The basketball players couldn't keep their eyes from the Cheerleading squad. Even if they are short on people they sure are great. That's why they are one of the best Cheerleading squad in the district. SM High Blue Dragon Cheerleading Squad have been unbeatable for the last 4 years having four back to back championships. Ten and his other flyers look like flying whenever they are doing toss. Johnny couldn't keep his eyes of Ten, the way his body move to the music, how flexible he is in doing splits and other body positions. But the one thing he couldn't take his eyes off is Ten's smile. Through out the whole performance, Ten is smiling and laughing enjoying himself well until the last stunt. Johnny's body move at it's own accord and one thing lead to another, there he is catching Ten before he met the cold hard ground. Johnny relaxes seeing Ten talking to his teammates and the Council. "What a great move you got their Vice, if only you have those reflexes on court" Yuta said laughing. "Stop!" Johnny bumping his shoulder to the laughing male. He sits down on the side looking down, questioning himself "Why did my body move on its own?" He said to himself sighing. He felt a bump on his side and sees Ten sits besides him grabbing his water bottle. "Thank you for catching me" Ten said as he sips from his water bottle. "And uhm I'm sorry for kneeing you" Johnny raises his eyebrow "What did you say? I didn't hear the last one." "I'm not going repeat myself Johnny!" "Yeah yeah. You're welcome I guess" Smiling softly to the Cheerleader. "Come on. You'll be my main base" Ten said standing up offering a hand to the taller male. They've been practicing for a month now but the two never had a decent conversation or Johnny never lifted Ten, most of it, it's eitherJungwoo or Haechan,even if Mark glares at him from time to time. "You guys change to your training clothes!" Ten shouted to the Council members. "Hyung not again with the booty shorts" Chenle groans. "I like those shorts. It's comfortable" Haechan said dragging the others to change. "Uhm I forgot my other shirt" Haechan groans. One by one the Council members came out of the changing room. Renjun and Chenle have big hoodie or a shirt covering their shorts but Haechan doesn't have. His tshirt came only at his waist. As he walks up the Council he felt eyes on him watching him walk. "Hae where's your other shirt?" Taeyong said shielding Haechan from the males on Cheerleading squad. "I forgot it at home " He sighs. "You're not going to practice with that!" Taeyong whispered yelled. "Here" Mark throws him a shirt, his shirt to be exact then walk away. Mark saw that other males give Haechan the eyes. They licking their lips and staring at his thighs. And he doesn't like it, they eye him like he's like some piece of meat. He send a glare to them one by one while walking up to Haechan. He pulls his shirt above his head and toss it to Haechan. "Here" then walk away glaring to anyone who glance at Haechan. Haechan could only stare at the shirt on his hands. He wears the shirt and instantly falls in love with Mark's scent, watermelon and fresh water, what a great combination. The shirt came to his knees covering everything from his torso to his knees. "Okay! Flyers to the front!" One by one the flyers move to the front. Their are 7 flyers including the 4 Council members. "Okay bases pick your flyers!" One by one the basketball players already know who would they pick. Jisung to Chenle , NoMin to Renjun , Lucas to Jungwoo,  Johnny to Ten. Mark was supposed to be walking to Haechan but Yugyeom beat him to it. "Hi Cutie. Care to be my flyer?" He smirks eyeing Haechan up and down. "Uhm I already ha-" Before Haechan could answer, someone pulls him by his waist. "Sorry Yugyeom. He already have a base" Mark glares to the taller male. "Tsk" And Yugyeom walk away from them. "You okay Hyuck?" Mark faces Haechan. "Y-yeah. Thank you hyung"

"Okay everyone! We're going to do shoulder sit!" Ten voice resonate to the whole gymnasium. "To anyone who doesn't know! I'm going to demonstrate it! Watch carefully!" Ten pulls Johnny to stand by his side. "Okay Johnny bend your knee. Yes like that" As Ten steps to Johnny's bend knee, he hoist himself into Johnny's shoulder sitting on it,Ten put his hands on Johnny's shoulders to steady himself then proceed to wrap his feet around Johnny's waist. "Okay. On count of three stand up slowly okay? One two three" Johnny stands up slowly and Ten wrap his other feet to Johnny's waist. Ten put his arms on V shape while Johnny's hands on his knees to hold him up. "Okay bases! Bend your knee! Flyers put your feet on your bases bend knee to hoist yourself!

Hoist them up and put them down! One! Two! Three!" One by one the bases put their flyers down. "Okay Johnny put me down" Ten said Johnny complies but with different method. He holds Ten's waist and put him down but not with Ten's back on his front but Ten faces Johnny while holding his waist on a protective manner. "You okay Johnny?" "Uhm Yeah" Johnny steps back from Ten. "Okay everyone a 15 minutes break!" Ten shouted but not leaving his eyes on Johnny's face.

Mark saw the hesitation on Haechan's eyes after Ten said the bases will going to hoist the flyers up. "Hey Hyuck you okay?" "Hmm? Yeah" Haechan gave a shaky smile to Mark. Haechan keeps thinking about what Hyuna said to him yesterday. "Am I really fat? I didn't eat last night. Can Mark hyung carry me? What if I gain weight? Oh no!" Haechan keep thinking things about his weight. "Hyuck? Are thinking about Hyuna said to you yesterday?" Mark faces Haechan. "W-what no hyung" He awkwardly laughs. Mark cups his face and said "You're not okay? Don't listen to her okay? She's a bitch and psychopath. If I know she's only jealous of your body" "Are you saying I'm sexy hyung?" Haechan said as a pink tint shows on Mark's face. "I-uhm-I" Haechan giggles at flushed Mark. "Thank you hyung" He smiles to the older male who could only nod in return. On their right side a certain male kept on staring at Chenle. "Jisung is he staring at me or?" He whispers and pointed his head to the black haired male from the other side of gymnasium. Jisung snaps his head to side and saw a black haired male eyeing Chenle, well his legs up and down. Jisung took off his jacket and tied it around Chenle's waist. "Jisung what are you doing?" He whispers to the younger male. "I don't like other people eyeing what's mine" He said but the older male didn't hear him. He moves to Chenle's side and put his arm to Chenle's waist and glares the male who kept on staring. The male just smirks when he saw Jisung's eyes looking at him ready to snap his neck.

Renjun approach Ten "Hyung what will I do?" "Could you do a Scorpion?" Renjun furrows his eyebrows "Yes I can hyung why?" "Can you do it in air?" "What hyung?! In air?!" Renjun sending a "are you serious?" face to Ten. "You can do a Scorpion on air. You have two side bases Jaemin and Jeno could easily lift you" Ten explains. "What will I do?" Renjun sighs.  Ten called Jaemin and Jeno. "Okay do a Prep/Elevator. After that Renjun bent your leg backwards to your head while Jaemin and Jeno could hold your ankle and leg" The both males look at Ten like he grew another head. "What the hell hyung that's dangerous!" Jaemin said. "No it's not. Renjun already did it but not in air" He said. "That's the point hyung! It's in the air!" Jeno countered. "Will you let him fall then?" He raise an eyebrow to the younger males. "What? No hyung!" They both said. "Then do it" The both boys groans. "I can do it. I believe in you two" the blonde male smiles to his bases. The both complies and lift Renjun up into a Prep both holding Renjun's feet. Renjun lifts his leg from Jeno's hold bending it to his back meeting his head. Jeno move to Jaemin's place to help him carry Renjun. The both males eyes the blonde boy, with worry in their eyes. "Okay! Toss him up and Jaemin catch him to your hands! Jeno move away!" On the count of three Jaemin toss Renjun up and catch him bridal style. "You okay angel?" He asked looking down to the male in his arms. "Y-yeah I am" Renjun blushes. Jaemin put him down and met with Jeno's smiling face. "You did great princess!" He beams to Renjun. "T-thank you" Renjun smile shyly.

7 hours of lifting and tossing the practice ends at 3pm. Chenle is untying Jisung's jacket from his waist when the black haired male from before approach him. "Uhm H-hi can I help you?" He smiles to black haired male. The black haired male just pull Chenle to his chest from his waist. "Uhm p-please let me go" Chenle put his hands to the male's chest pushing him away. But the male just tighten his hold on Chenle's waist. "He said let him go" Jisung sternly said gripping the male's arms, pulling it off from Chenle's waist. "You okay purple dolphin?" Jisung turns to Chenle his eyes softening. "Y-yeah I'm okay" He smiles to the brown haired. Jisung faces the stranger, standing in front of Chenle, and his faces hardening, sending daggers to him. "What do you want Chan?" Jisung ask venom dripping from his voice. The male "Chan" just smirks "Nothing Jisung. Just checking your boyfriend" He said eyeing Chenle from Jisung's back. Jisung steps forward looking Chan at the eye and said "Fuck off Chan. He's mine." The male just raise his hands surrendering. "Whoa calm down Park" He laughs. "What are you doing here Lee?" Jisung spat. "Nothing Park. Just checking on you. See you next week Park. And to you cutie." Chan turns around and exits the gymnasium. "Who's he Jisung?" Chenle ask. "Lee Chan. From Pledis High Basketball team" He said tugging Chenle's hand. "Come on purple dolphin I'll walk you home" Jisung smiles to the older. Jisung pick up both his and Chenle's bag. "Jaehyun hyung! We're going!" He shouted to his cousin. "Yeah! Be home before 7 or I'm calling Aunt May!" He waves goodbye.

Walking outside , they met with a comfortable atmosphere, Jisung is still holding Chenle's hand. And Chenle didn't want to let go. "Did Taeyong hyung said when will the exhibition games and PEP rally?" He asks Chenle looking at him. The older male shook his head. "Well it's starting next week" "What? The director didn't say anything to us Council" Chenle said confuse. Because before the whole school knows, the Council is the first one who will need to know first for them to finalize things before the event takes place. "How did you know that? Is it about that boy said awhile ago?" Jisung stops walking and nod. "By Monday, the director will tell the Council" He said "But we're not ready yet, the routines, the booths, everything" He tugs his hand from Jisung's hold. And began pacing back and forth on the sidewalk blabbering to himself. Jisung watch with amusement, while the purple haired boy pace infront of him. Chenle keep on talking to himself when he heard a laugh on his side. "Jisung! This isn't the time to laugh!" He yelled to the brown haired boy. Jisung just shakes his head. "Don't worry purple dolphin. It's already done. The booths and the performance." He smiles to the older. "How?" Chenle widen his eyes in realization. "You finish it!" Chenle jumps up and down in excitement before hugging Jisung. Jisung hugs the older male back burying his face on Chenle's shoulder. "Yeah I did it" He smiles. Jisung pull from the hug and holds Chenle's hand "Come on let's get you home" Chenle only nods. But after a few minutes "But Jisung isn't your home the other way?" He cock his eyebrow to the younger male. Jisung stops and turns to Chenle "Well uhm I" He stutters because Chenle found out. Chenle laughs and walks infront of Jisung "Come on" He smiles. Jisung just tighten his hold on Chenle's hand smiling to himself.
