As days pass by, the event is coming closer and closer. Ten and his team were rushing to put the finishing touches before tomorrow. But the event isn't the only thing growing closer, Taeyong and Jaehyun are becoming close too.

Everyday Jaehyun would join Taeyong and his best friends' place to chat and have lunch. Sometimes it would just the two of them talking, mostly Jaehyun doing the talking. Taeyong couldn't help but feel something whenever Jaehyun spoke, his hands gesturing each story, the way his hair flowing with the wind, and his smile whenever he recalled something hilarious.

At every afternoon, Jaehyun would always pick Taeyong up and walk him to the outside. They would always enjoy the silence together, and occasionally talk about random things.

Taeyong for some odd reason would always feel his heart racing whenever the younger looks at him. It was like he was slowly melting to his presence.

But he remembers, he has a girlfriend. She would run to Jaehyun in most days when they get out of the building.

He felt his heart ache.

🌌

It was the night of the Valentine's day event. Taeyong stood on the corner while he looked at the wild students having the time of their lives. He stood there lonely. As always. Jungwoo was busy entertaining the students and accompanying Ten. Taeil was dancing with Doyoung, the school president.

The music blared, the bass shacking his insides and the vocals deafening him.

He was proud of what he did, he saw all the decorations that he worked hard for to perfection.

"Taeyong!" Jaehyun shouted and ran to the lonely boy with his arms crossed. Jaehyun looked so dashing in his tuxedo and his slicked hair. Taeyong felt hot from the sight.

"Hi" he blandly spoke, it was barely audible.

"Wanna dance?" Jaehyun danced on his feet, getting the rhythm started. Taeyong resisted the urge to laugh.

He shook his head no, but Jaehyun just grabbed his wrist and dragged him to the dance floor. They got to the middle of crowd, bodies in contact with one another. The colorful dresses and black tuxedos jumping up and down to the sound of the music.

"Electrify my heart-art-art-art-art-art-oh-ooh-ooh
Electrify my heart-art-art-art-art-art-oh-ooh-ooh"

Jaehyun lets go of Taeyong's wrist before dancing ridiculously, his faced echoed happiness and enjoyment. He just stood there awkwardly, he felt some eyes on him and Jaehyun.

Soon after, he started to move to the beat, his arms slowly following Jaehyun's movement. He suddenly lost all of his worries and just dance to the music, with the younger stopping to see him. He couldn't help but smile at Taeyong.

This was the first time he saw him dance. The music ended and they were all out of breath. The DJ started to play a slow music, a gentle kind of music. Some students left and only the couples were left, slow dancing to the soft voices.

Taeyong walked off but suddenly twirled around by Jaehyun.

"You're not going anywhere" Taeyong slammed to Jaehyun's chest. His arms locked his small frame, preventing him to leave.

"J-Jaehyun, what about your girlfriend?" He felt so nervous, he can hear whispers from the students and just from the thought of Jaehyun's girlfriend getting angry over him, scares him.

"This is about you, and I'm breaking up with her, caught her fucking behind my back" Jaehyun's deep voice vibrated his body, their chest pressing together, feeling the fast beats of their hearts.

"J-Jaehyun, I don't think we should do this" Taeyong tried to push him away, but the arms around him tightened, Jaehyun swayed both of them slowly to the sound.

"You lift my feet off the ground
You spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I am lost in your eyes
You make me crazier, crazier, crazier"

"You're beautiful" Jaehyun spoke, his fingers sweeping the hair on Taeyong's forehead.

"J-Jaehyun, please let go" Taeyong pushed harder but then he looked up and saw Jaehyun's eyes. Staring deep into his soul.

His feet uncontrollably danced to the song, his eyes never leaving Jaehyun's. Slowly their faces decreases in gap, slowly nearing. Losing inch after inch until only a centimeter was left. Then it was nothing left, but their lips crashing into one another.

They got lost in the moment, his soft lips touching the other. He pulled away gently and saw the people staring, he shrank, he wanted to leave.

"Taeyong?" Jaehyun asked as the older looked around like he was fearing for his life, and he dashed away.

Leaving Jaehyun alone on the dance floor, his heart breaking.

Taeyong kept running and running through the halls, the fear of falling in love slowly eating him alive. And the rumors that may start might kill him. He shouldn't have met Jaehyun.
