You gulped a ball of saliva down your throat as you approached him. Everybody was waiting for you to get to his side so that he could continue the lesson. After he made sure that you were on his side, he carried on.

“Ok, so today only 1 of you will get to be the boy dancer, and the other partner will just follow the steps. Just think of it as a dance, not some gay thing, okay?” Luhan instructed very clearly. His adam apple bobbing up and down.

The class muttered a low response of yeses and he the music. It was a fast music, which means its going to be a fast song with confusing steps.

“Well, a girl role would fit perfectly for a sissy like you,” he snickered and grabbed your right hand and put it on his shoulder, your other hand on his. *Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I’m actually couple dancing with a boy,* he thought. He pulled you closer to him and you blinked.

There wasn’t time for you to even think about the next step as he was leading you so fast that you could not even catch up. Occasionally, you would trip over his leg or stepped on it and he would grumble in frustration.

“If you step me again, my legs are going to fall apart, and I will sue you and your entire family,” he hissed loudly.

“Well, I didn’t mean to, you dance too fast,” you complained.

“Fine,” he let you go and showed you some steps to take note while you copied his movement. After a couple of tries, you got a hang of it and took his hands again. It was weird though, you didn’t flinch that much when you were with Luhan.

“Come closer, how am I suppose to lead when you’re like leaving a freaking gap?” he muttered. You rolled your eyes and stepped a little closer.

“Are you retarded?” he couldn’t stand you anymore and he exert a little more of his strength, pulling you against him. His hand around your small waist tightened and he let out a tiny gasp. *Oh , why is he so freaking thin?!* Luhan started dancing, if anybody were to see both of you right now, they would immediately shout “GAY GAY GAY!”

You didn’t notice his dilemma and continued to focus on getting the steps and matching his extremely and ridiculously fast pace.

“Ugh, go slower,” you complained when you accidentally stepped on his shoe. Luhan didn’t grumble but carry on dancing. *Omg…dying…* you thought as your body felt week and your limbs hurt. Throughout the dance, you hinted to Luhan that you wanted to rest, but he ignored. Your vision starts to blur and the buzzing in your ear grew louder. You lost your concentration and tripped. Luckily, Luhan caught you in time, one hand supporting your back, the other pulling your hand.

For the first time, Luhan notices your smooth surface of your neck. It’s whiter than most of the guys here and looks…softer. He lowered you down on the ground while you gasped for air. His eyes never once left your face.

*Why does the way she act looked like some kind of girl?* he knitted his brow. *Looks like Miyoung’s neck…* He didn’t know that his heart pumped faster. *Something is really weird here.*

“Dude, stop staring at me and get some water, please,” you said. “I’m dying here,”

“Shut up, just breathe,” he spat and went to take a plain water. Some of the guys stopped dancing and went to look at the commotion. Lay, too, stopped his practice and helped to fan you, who is apparently, half-dead.

“Wow, you look like a zombie.” Lay said, he ped half of your jacket and instinctively, your hand shot up to slap his arms away while you zipped your jacket all the way to the top.

“Look, it’s really hot here, if you don’t , you’re going to die of heat,” he explained, a little frustrated with you. But you didn’t care, your identity is at risk if you your jacket. *I should’ve bought the one without any zippers.*

“I just can’t take off my jacket. Not now,” you groaned and took a bottle of water from Luhan.

“Seriously, you’re a guy and you can’t even take this kind of exercise? Are you what, gay or something?” Luhan chided, totally pissing you off even further.

“What, I can't be gay?” you said.

The people in the class heard what you’ve just said and stare at you. Some of them even wore back their shirt. *Oh . What did I just say?! Stupid, stupid mouth!* You wanted to yell back at them, to say that you’re totally normal but you can’t. Your face burned with embarrassment and you tried to find help from Lay who scooted a little further away from you.

You glared at Luhan, but he only cast you a smirk. Still burning with embarrassment, you scrambled out of the room, nearly falling because of the dizziness. But you didn’t care. The guys wouldn’t help you anyway since you self-declared yourself gay. *So, this school is officially, ist.*

Eun Ji’s POV

This is pure madness. I can’t believe I just self-declared myself a gay. Wow, Eun Ji, you’re the best. This is probably the best thing I’ve ever said.

Just kidding.

A couple of times, I would walk a few steps and started banging my head against the wall. I must be so insane. Bring me to the mental hospital now, they will totally accept this crazy person.

When I reached my dorm room, I quickly made a call to Kim Bear, telling her the good thing that I’ve done. She would probably start screaming the minute I finished my sentence.

I dialed her number and in three rings she picked it up.

“Kim Bear!!!!!” I wailed.

“Yoooo my baby!”

“I just did a damn stupid thing,” I went straight to the topic.

“What? If it’s too stupid, it will poison my ear,” she said.

“I…self-declared myself gay in front of the entire dance class,” I sighed and held the phone far away from my ear, preparing.

“WHATTT THE ?!!!” she shrieked.

“Yeah, so. Yeah.” I didn’t know what to say, I waited, hoping Kim bear would tell me something to cheer my dampen mood.

“Well, it isn’t exactly a bad thing. Because now you can act a little bit more sissy without having people to suspect you or anything because, well, you’re gay.” I could picture her smiling and laughing.

“Oh! I didn’t think about that!” Relief wash over me and I immediately felt relax. I collapsed on my bed while continue to chat with Kim Bear. After chatting for 15 minutes, she hung up because she had something on. I let my phone dropped on my bed while I took a nap.

But before my mind drifted to deep slumber, my phone started vibrating. My eyes flew open and saw the caller ID – mom.

My shoulders sank immediately and I exhaled. Another round of nagging…

“Yes, mom…?”

“Honey, just to inform you that our family is invited to a masquerade party this coming Saturday. So please find a day where you can go out with somebody to get your own dress and a mask. I’ll not tolerate your short hair so get a wig or some extensions.” She said all in one go but I didn’t reply. She paused to catch her breath while I waited.

“I’ve transferred some money into your card so use everything if you want. Please, please get a nice looking mask and dress, that’s all I ask from you,” she sighed and I pictured her raking her fingers through her hair. She’s unreasonable but it’s all for my own good. A masquerade party isn’t that harmful…right?

“Yes mom, I’ll go shopping with Kimberly tomorrow, bye,”

I hung up the phone and stared at the ceiling.

*Masquerade party, huh,*
