SOONYOUNG had been busy for the rest of the week. He was teaching the other dancers that were going to take part of Jihoon's song, catching up with his social life (which also meant a lot of filming, editing and posting), and taking short hours of practicing altogether with the idol.

Usually his sessions in teaching the choreography were either backup dancers or backup dancers with Jihoon, and the cycle repeats (even when his friends had met Jihoon, they teased him endlessly). But as the week was ending, he had the whole day to be with Jihoon. Well, a few hours.

The blonde haired boy was waiting inside of the practice room, already doing a few excercises and practicing the new choreography. The room filled with beats and his own voice as he repeated each move that he had learned so far with Soonyoung and the other dancers. In the midst of practicing, Soonyoung had entered, stopping him in his tracks only to continue again when the latter had mentioned that he will just warm up.

Though as he danced, Jihoon had been glancing at Soonyoung, he has never really seen him warm up or at least stretch. And his eyes glanced back at the black haired boy who looked very much flexible than how Jihoon had originally thought of.

As the the song finished, so did Soonyoung with his warm ups. "Okay! Now let's review shall we?" Soonyoung announced.

Jihoon nodded, a light chuckle escaping his lips as the stood beside each other, facing the mirror wall.

The music played and they began dancing. Recalling each move that they had practiced together for the past days. Until Jihoon stopped mid-dancing. Stuck on one of the moves and missed a whole portion.

Soonyoung stopped the music. "You okay?" he walked towards the younger.

Jihoon nodded. Just the slight disappointment in himself for missing a step annoyed him. "I'm alright. Just distracted."

"Ok then." replied Sooyoung as he played the music again.

The second time Jihoon didn't miss a beat, though at times he had been late and it had been seen in the slightest mistake he had.

"Okay! You've done really well!" Soonyoung smiled as the music ended.

Jihoon snorted, walking over to the small refrigerator that sat on the opposite side of the room and pulling out two water bottles. "How so? I made a lot of mistakes there." he threw Soonyoung a bottle.

Catching the bottle, the taller let out a sigh. "Well judging that it only has been a few days, I'm surprised that you were able to memorize all the moves."

"You have a point. But it's all thanks to you, the choreography was really fun." Jihoon opened the bottle and drank. He let out sincere words. He really love the dance.

But Soonyoung had been more of a motivation than the choreography itself.

"Oh I had a new Idea while walking here and I just want to try it out to see if it looks good." Soonyoung shared as their little break ended.

They resumed to their places they had before the short rest.

The older demonstrated first to the younger, going through each step slowly.

"I fall in your eyes blue like the sea. . .
Ah, my head, is overflowing with the waves that are you. . ." pronouncing each word carefully and slowly moving to the beat and lyrics.

"Like. . ." Jihoon mumbled. He copied with Soonyoung.

"No. Like this."

He tried again.

"Not right but do it with me."

He tried again.

"Here, let me help you."

Soonyoung walked over before him. Not noticing Jihoon take a nervous glance. Soonyoung came face to face, busy fixing Jihoon's stance.

He touched his hands. It was callused but it felt so soft. And warm.

The latter guided Jihoon's hand to the dance position. Only realizing he had been holding it. Soft, small and cold. Just like how Jihoon was. The tip of his fingers grazed from typing all day. He didn't realize that he smiled a bit.

Flustered he quickly let go and looked away, not wanting to spend another minute embarrassing himself.

But he didn't catch the look in Jihoon's eyes as the warmth left his hands. It felt cold again.

Unconsciously, Jihoon held Soonyoung's chin and turned his face to him. Their faces were close, his inconvenience of a height making him look up to the other. Dark black eyes, his heart racing-

brrrring , brrring

The two snapped back into reality tearing their gazes away from each other, flustered.

Jihoon didn't realize that he had been holding his breath as he let out a huff.

Soonyoung quickly walked to his phone, his ears burning red. Jihoon just did that. Jihoon just did that... The words ringing repeatedly in his head.

He fiddled with his phone, slipping from his hands as he answered the call that came from Seungcheol.

"Y-Yes hello?" he answered.

"Yes. I'll be there."

"Mhm."

"Okay. Thank you."

"I'll be going now."

He placed down the phone wiping his sweatied face and threw on a long sleeved grey hoodie.

He turned around to face Jihoon but he couldn't look at him in the eyes.

"There's j-just an emergency meeting. And I n-n-need to go." he said before walking to the door. He swung it open, "I'll be back quickly." he spoke and left.

Oh Lord, Soonyoung was a total mess.

And so was Jihoon.

He fell to a crouch. His hands covering his face as he managed to utter out an oh my God.

Since when did he start thinking about how cute Soonyoung looked, how soft his hands could be, his sweet smile, his amazing skills in dancing? All of those. Since when?

It was confusing.

His feelings were so confusing.

And as Soonyoung slumped on the door. Exhaling loudly. His heart hadn't raced the same way since he met Jia. He was having second thoughts. The thought haunting him that he isn't liking Jia anymore.

The thought of Jihoon staining his mind.

He never would have expected anything like that to happen so suddenly as he stayed with the younger.

It was just them being caught in the moment.

It surely has to be.

He shook his head. "Now's not the time to think of that."

He needed to be in a meeting and it really had to bother him that much.
