Romeo and Juliet |Nct Dream|

Blushing

"But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!
O, that she knew she were!
She speaks yet she says nothing: what of that?
Her eye discourses; I will answer it.
I am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks:
Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,
Having some business, do entreat her eyes
To twinkle in their spheres till they return.
What if her eyes were there, they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,
As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were not night.
See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!
O, that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!" Diana said as she looked over at Jaemin who was looking back at her. Diana looked up from her script a few times and made eye contact with him.
Mrs. Boo looked at him and whispered, "Juliet is supposed to look off into the distance."

Jaemin brought his attention to Mrs.Boo and looked back at script in embarrassment. He had a slight pink tint on his cheeks as he read his lines, "Ay me!" He said.

Diana gave a slight smile, "She speaks:
O, speak again, bright angel! for thou art
As glorious to this night, being o'er my head
As is a winged messenger of heaven
Unto the white-upturned wondering eyes
Of mortals that fall back to gaze on him
When he bestrides the lazy-pacing clouds
And sails upon the bosom of the air." She said to Jaemin with a little smile. Diana saw the slight tint of pink on his cheeks. She couldn't help but smile. Diana pointed at her script signaling it was his turn.

Throughout the rest of practice Jaemine had to keep his eyes off of Diana. She was distracting him from getting his lines right.

Haechan was in the background painting the setting with other students. He would watch the two exchange small smiles as he gave a peak at them. Haechan lightly sighed knowing he shouldn't care about it. He shouldn't get... jealous? Was he even jealous?

Shaking his head from his own thoughts he told himself not to think about those two blushing at each other and giving tiny smiles to one another and how they look at each other... Diana was interested into Jaemin. It was obvious. If Haechan was a girl he would be too. Jaemin is nice and kind and loud and playful and outgoing and UGH.
"I need to stop," Haechan said quietly to himself as he painted.

After another hour or two everyone slowly left. Mrs. Boo was packing up and told student council to leave the stuff there for tomorrow before rushing out the door.

The group was still there sitting in the chairs waiting for Haechan to finish his work, "You know you guys could've left hours ago!" He told them as he gave the paint brushes to a few girls before jumping off the stage to speak to them.

"We could've but we didn't," Mark told him as he unwrapped a lollipop and put it in his mouth.

"I mean if you want to walk home alone we can always leave without you," June said as she stood up.

"No! Just wait for me since you guys are still here!" Haechan said as he put his hands out in front of him and signaled June to sit back down. He looked at his friends. Someone was missing. Jeno, Renjun, Chenle, Mark, Jisung, Chaewon, and June...where was Jaemin?

"Hey, where's Jaemin?" Haechan asked at he looked around the large room. Jeno looked at him and gave a smile, "Jaemin put his big boy pants on and decided to walk Diana to the front of the school." He gave a tiny clap for Jaemin before fixing adjusting his shoulder for Renjun's head. Renjun fallen asleep waiting for Haechan to finish.

"Yeah but he didn't want to walk her to her house," Jisung said as looked up at the ceiling, "Even with his big boy pants on he's still a big baby." He told them. They laughed and nodded in agreement. "Jaemin is just shy!" Chaewon said, "This is his first real interest in a girl. Let him liveeeeee," She told them with a smile, "I have a good feeling about them."

Haechan gave a smile at Chaewon. He shouldn't interfere with Diana. He knew he shouldn't because Jaemin was hooked to her already.
