Fifty-Four: Slow Dance

Yunho:

Noeul dabbed the sweat off her forehead, her breathing uneven from dancing a few seconds ago. For hours, she and her band members were practicing for their debut song today, and even though Noeul was tired, she needed to practice. So she stayed all night until she got the moves down.

She sat down next to her things and began to gulp down water to quench her thirst. Just as she did, the door to the practice room opened. She looked over, and her eyes connected with Yunho's.

"Annyeong," he said, smiling her way. Noeul blushed as he walked towards her.

Ever since they first met those months ago, something intimate has been stirring up between them. Yunho had fallen in love with her, and his wild, lustful side had slightly overtaken the gentleman in him.

Noeul stood up and bowed to him. "Annyeonghaseyo," she said. She stood up straight and looked up at him.

"You're still speaking formally to me," he said, touching her hand. "Did you miss me?" Noeul looked down timidly.

"I was too busy to think about you," she said, trying to hurt his feelings. Both of them know that they couldn't be interacting like this, but he keeps doing it, and she keeps letting him. Noeul likes the attention he gave her. But Noeul needed to push him away because she knew she wouldn't be able to when she debuts.

"That's not nice," he whispered, caressing her forehead and noticing the sweat. "You're practicing?"

"Ne."

Yunho carelessly threw down his bag and wrapped his arms around her, drawing her close to his body. Noeul avoided eye contact and tried to touch him back because he was so close and wearing a sleeveless shirt that showed off his muscular arms.

"Want to dance with me?" he asked, ducking his head down to get closer to her ear.

"Uh..."

He spins her around like they were slow dancing, pulling her to the middle of the room. When she made a full turn, he drew her close to his body again and began to slow dance with her.

Yunho missed her a lot; she was all he thought about the time he was away in Japan. Yunho thought of everything he would say and do with her, but now that he's here, he didn't know what to do. All that came to his mind was to hold her close.

"There's no music," Noeul said.

"...I know."

"You're weird," she said.

Yunho pulled away from her slightly and looked down at her, becoming serious as a thought came across his mind.

"Are you scared of me?" he asked.

"Huh?"

"You must think I'm creepy touching you like this."

Noeul glanced up at him and saw that he was serious. She understood how important it was for him to know because he was her senior and a little than her.

Noeul blushed as she realized she had to tell him the truth. "Aniyo. I...I...I like it when you touch me." She grew embarrassed when he smiled at her.

"You like it when I touch you?"

"Aniya, not like that," she whimpered as he groped her hips.

Yunho chuckled at her timid behavior, gently grabbing her hands and placing them on his shoulders. He wrapped his arms around her waist and swayed from side to side, and they slowly spun around.

Noeul was breathing raggedly; her nerves were going crazy, and she was becoming excited from experiencing this. She always thought she would experience this after retiring from Kpop, but how lucky is she to have it now?

"Am I holding you too tight?" Yunho asked.

"Aniyo..."

"...Do you know that I fell in love with you the first time we met?"

Noeul stared up at him with wide eyes. "Me?"

"Of course," he chuckled. "It was like love at first sight. I wanted you to be mine right then and there, but I knew we couldn't be a couple of because of our career."

The reminder made Noeul lower her head and remove her hands from his shoulders. Yunho noticed and lifted her chin so he could look her in the eyes.

"I know you don't want to get in trouble, but I also know you don't want me to stop being like this towards you. You don't want me to stop holding you and touching you...do you?"

Yunho dipped his head down and pressed his lips on hers. Noeul's heart was throbbing out of her chest; she was in absolute paradise that she didn't want to escape it. So she kissed him back.

Their first kiss was soft and full of passion. Yunho urged her to hold him, and she did, Noeul wrapped her arms around his neck to show that she was enjoying it.

"Be mine," he whispered in between kisses. Noeul pulled away to looked him in his eyes, and she smiled.

"Okay."
