“Oh! It’s you Mr. Lee and I see you have a new friend” Mrs. Kim said pointing to Yara making all students look at them “glad you join us boys” she added when she saw the others “You must be the students from the exchange program.” Mrs. Kim said smiling at the girls

“Yes we are. We arrived today” Yara said feeling all gazes turn to glares and that was when she remembered she was holding hands with Taemin “You can let go of my hand you know” she said to him

“Sorry… you’re right” Taemin said embarrassed for not noticing

“Ok go change boys, you girls didn’t come prepared so…..” Mrs. Kim said

“Who said we didn’t? We actually came prepared for this without knowing” Xti said pointing to their backpacks

“Oh! You can go change then…..the door on the left” the dance teacher said

“Thank you” the girls bowed and went to change.

“You’re the first one to cut the secret who knew” Mary said to Yara jokingly

“Guess I am” Yara laugh

“Ready?” Ari asked and receiving nods as an answer “let’s go then” and they headed back to the studio. When they arrived everyone was staring at them

“What?” Rin asked feeling uncomfortable

“They must have though we didn’t have style” Ari said smirking

They were wearing this: Yara, Xti, Anko, Ari, Mary, Rin (A.N. click on each name to see how they look)

“Well class, it’s time to warm up!” the teacher said clapping her hands “Let’s start”

“Okay!” all students said and started making warm up exercises.

“Don’t forget to warm up well class, girls do you need any help with which exercises you should do?” Mrs. Kim asked the six girls

“Oh no, thank you. We know what to do in this case, once again thank you.” Yara smiled warmly to the teacher.

“Okay then, you should start” Mrs. Kim instructed smiling back. As the girls started to warm up her smile became bigger, they really knew what was best for these type of class.

After 5 minutes there was a girl that stopped and asked “Mrs. Kim isn’t it time we stop warming up and get to real business?”

“Warming up is never enough when you don’t do the correct exercises” Taemin said smiling to the girl who looked confused to him

“Mr. Lee is right, I was hoping you would notice it by yourself but you didn’t even get a look at your surroundings.” Mrs. Kim said then pointed to Yara “Miss….. How should I call you dear?” she asked her

“Who? Me?” Yara asked confused

“Yes dear. What’s your name?” the teacher asked again

“You can call me Yara Mrs. Kim. My last name is way too difficult as you can see” Yara said pointing to the paper that the principal had given them to give to all teachers.

“It really is” the teacher said “well then Miss Yara do you mind joining Mr. Lee in giving this class the right warm up” she asked smiling

“Sure why not?” Yara shrugged “Anyway we don’t want anyone hurt do we”

“So…… you start or I do?” Taemin asked

“You go first. You know them better and longer than I do so they will be more “obedient”” Yara said jokingly

“You’re right” Taemin said letting out a laugh

“Well it’s enough chit chatting we need to start” Yara said hitting his harm playfully

“Sure! And that hurt by the way” he said jokingly “Guys, can I have your attention please” he said while doing aegyo making all girls squeal, except the six Portuguese, and all boys, with exception of his friends, growl.

“Come on boys! Don’t be like that, just because they act like that. You all have your own charms” Yara said smiling as a way to cheer up the boys. This made everyone look at her, the boys smiling and the girls snorting “Oh God, really!” she face palmed “Let’s just do the exercises ok?” and with that they all started doing the right warm up exercises.

After other 5 minutes “Ok class let’s start dancing” Mrs. Kim said making everyone cheer “But first I want to see what our new friends are capable of, is that possible girls” she asked while gesturing to the six girls

“All alone in front of the whole class?” Rin asked excitedly

 “Yes, I want everyone to see what you girls are made of to see if you need any help or not” The teacher smiled

“YAY” Rin jumped “Girls let’s go! Yara it’s time for your magic” she smiled still jumping

“What does she means?” the six boys asked

“Watch and see it for yourself” Mary said smirking as the six of them went to the front of the class

“Can you please put track 5 please” Yara said throwing her I-Phone to the girl that was closer to the stereo

“S-sure” the girl said preparing the stereo. As soon as the music started it was possible to see how amazing and synchronized they were till Anko, Xti, Rin, Mary and Ari stopped making all eyes land on Yara. She was giving all she had in her solo and you could see how passionate she was while dancing. At some point the girls rejoined her making everyone see how well they worked together. Once the song stopped the finished perfectly synchronized and there was a deep silence in the studio (A.N. imagine the solo from minute 2:52 to minute 3:11)

“That bad uh?” Xti asked

“OH, NOT BAD AT ALL! You girls were amazing we were just speechless you were really…… wow.” The teacher answered straight away.

“REALLY!” the girls exclaimed

“You really were amazing. No! You were more than amazing!” some student complimented

“By the way Mr. Lee did you find already a partner for this year dance competition???” the teacher asked glancing between Taemin and Yara with hope in her eyes.

“I’ve been looking for a partner but no one had the potential for this. But…” Taemin explained “…I think I just found the perfect candidate” he said smiling “Yara will you please give me the honor of being my partner for this competition” he looked directly at her eyes.

“I….I can’t” Yara replied looking down. There could be heard some ‘what?’ and ‘how dare she’

“What? Why?” Taemin was taken aback

“You have to accept! This school doesn’t win in so long. You know Mr. Lee have been trying since he entered this school but he can’t do it by himself because there is a part of the competition that it’s needed a partner and also a feminine competition not only male and couple.” Mr. Kim tried to persuade her

“I really can’t……once I try to enter this kind of things something happens and I’m not able to perform” Yara explained looking up with a sad expression

“Just give it a try Yara” Ari said “Maybe this time nothing happens” she tried to cheer up her friend

“Yeah, give it a try” Mary said smiling trying as well.

“Okay, I’ll give it a try” Yara said smiling sadly

“Great!” the teacher exclaimed taking everyone by surprise “you finish practicing last lesson’s routine and I’ll inform the principal that we have someone to represent the school.” She said rushing out of the door “oh! I almost forgot! Make sure these girls here learn the routine” she said form the door and headed to the principal office.

“She resembled me of Rin right know.” Anko said making Yara smile a bit and the other 10 laugh

“Yara can I talk to you?” Taemin whispered and stepped away from the group

She nodded and followed him “what is it?” she asked

“Can you tell me what happened to you that make you so sad?” he asked her

“Sorry, but I can’t tell you right now.” she apologized “Maybe sometime in the future” she gave him a small smile and joined the others to learn the choreography
