"Alright Hera, since you arrived early you can leave early. Enjoy the rest of your day" Mr Turnbill dismissed me

"Bye Sir" I ran out of class and to the dance studio as fast as I could. I skidded to a stop in front of the doors to the dance room. I could hear the music playing as I opened the door. Everyone was watching the dance so they didn't notice that I was late. I went into the bathroom and quickly changed. I wore my usual dance outfit and made my way to the rest of the boys in the room. We all did dancing, this was a fun way for us to end the day after all the bullshit the teachers put us through.

"Hey Hera" Namjoon whispered

"Hey, what did I miss?" I whispered back

"We're basically just doing dancing for fun, Mr Choi said we will receive our projects tomorrow" He replied

"What project?" I asked

"Just a solo dance project, worth 100 marks. We have all holiday to work on it" he said

"Ok, thank you" I said. Solo projects came up all the time and they were usually worth more marks than team projects

"Do you just ask to go or what?" I asked

"No, he pulls the names of five people out of a hat and those people have five minutes to decide their dance and song, you're not allowed to do the same as another group" he explained

"Ohhhhhhh, ok" Another thing I liked about Mr Chi was that he wasn't strict and gave plenty of leniency toward homework and projects

"Hello Hera, why are you late to my class again?" he asked. I looked over to Jimin and playfully glared at him, he was supposed to tell Mr Chi that I was going to be late.

"I had detention with the Banshee" I told him. Everyone in the dance class had come up with names for the teachers. Mr Turnbill was the Banshee because he screamed a lot. He chuckled

"Ok, fair excuse. What did you do in detention?" he asked. All I could think of was the conversation Mr Turnbill had with that man, but I managed to think of something else.

"I beat his friend up" I said, I planned to tell them the fun part, not the rest.

"What? Do tell us" Mr Choi sat down on the floor and the whole class stared at me. We also often did this little storytine session, where the kids would tell interesting things that happened during their day. I told them what had happened, but I obviously didn't tell them about what I had heard or my snooping. I just told them about when I beat the man up. As I told the story, the class was laughing and giggling. I loved moments like this when we could just be in the company of people who didn't give a shit about your flaws.

"That was a good storytime, but shall we continue with the dance extravaganza" Mr Chi announced

"Yes" the class said in unison

"Ok, here we go, the next group is....." he put his hand in the hat without looking and pulled out five name bands,"Hosoek, Felix, Seungmin, Jeongin, Jimin and Hera" he said. We all walked to the centre of the room and made a tight circle so we could discuss the song

"What should we do?" I asked

"How about the song 'Bad Guy', I know its an old song now but the choreography is quite good" Felix suggested

"The Koosung Jung choreo?" Seungmin asked

"Yes, that one" Felix confirmed

"Let's do that" Jeongin said

"Cool" I said
