Mr. Rude & Ms. Two Left Feet

8. 180

Man did things change when I finally let go of my insecurity. I can dance now! Not saying that I was good, all I'm saying is that I can.

Minhyuk seems to be less cold now but he's still a stern instructor, or so I thought.

He's been more involved in trying to correct my dance steps. "Yah, your head has to tilt", "Add more snap to this", "Your feet have to switch positions", Blah blah blah. I can't tell whether I liked it better when he was not at all naggy.

But oh boy, was I caught off guard when he walked up close to me. So close that I could feel his breath.

He just stared at me blankly,
"W-what is it?" I tried to say in the most relaxed way I could pull off, but as you could tell I failed at that.

Minhyuk stare stayed still.
"Wae?!" I asked even more flustered now. "Yah! I'm sorry I'm not getting this s-step but p-please don't stare me to death" I added.

He looked at my hands, held and repositioned them correctly. "This is where your hands should be when the beat drops"
I'm shaking and I hope he doesn't feel it.
"Got it?"
I nodded, unable to mutter out words.

His hands then made its way to hold down my waist and i feared that he would feel me trembling. I felt like melting then and there.
"It's your chest that should move on this step,  your waist shouldn't move much, go ahead try the step."
"Wi-with your hands th-there?"
"Sorry is it uncomfortable?"
"I-it's okay, you're just trying to teach me."
"Okay then, try it."

"O-ok" Great, now he'll really see how flustered I am. I followed, dancing the step.

"Good. I guess that worked." He immediately let go of my waist and stepped back "Just imagine me holding down your waist when you do this step."
"Wha-what? Imagine?"
"Yeah? What's wrong?" He leaned in close "You want me to hold your waist everytime you do this step?"
"N-no of course not Minhyuk!" I pushed him back by a hand on his chest.
He lowered my hand. "Told you to call me Rocky" he leaned in even closer and reached out to push aside the strands of hair covering my face.

I immediately pushed his hand aside and looked to the side as I realized I was turning all red "yeah, okay, Rocky"
When I looked back to him he was smiling and my heart was thumping, what's with him today?! My heart stopped when I realized his dimple, it made him all the more cuter to my eyes now. "You have a dimple?"
"Yeah, guess you just noticed it now"
"You haven't exactly smiled to me"

"Eh, really? guess I should smile at you more often now then"

DID THIS GUY JUST DO A FULL 180 OR WHAT?!
I'm lost in thoughts now. What the hell have you done to Mr. Rude?! Am I really blushing for a guy like him?! I NEED A WAKE UP CALL, ASAP.

Minhyuk snapped his fingers at my face as he said "Yah Ms. Two left feet no slacking off!", calling me out of my thoughts.
Oh there he is, Mr. Rude, he's back. I smiled relieved.
