It was a Thursday and SHINee and the back-up dancers were having their routine practice.

There was a comeback stage just around the corner and not even one of them felt like they had practiced enough.

Especially not Minho.

Minho had been stressed to death lately. There was his solo in the latest comeback and he didn't know if he was ready for it or not.

Though he knew that he was totally, really anxious. He was afraid he wouldn't be able to pull it off.

"Next practice is Minho's solo!" someone yelled while they were catching their breath. Minho wasn't even able to make out the owner of the voice. That showed just how stressed he felt. "Minho!

Laura! Be ready in ten minutes!"

"Yees!" Laura yelled back and glanced at Minho.

Laura was Minho's partner for the solo performance and she was a sweet girl.

'The sweetest girl I've ever met.' Minho thought while smiling at the girl.

She knew of Minho's worries and she did her best to support him.

"Don't worry, our synchronization is perfect." she said while coming towards Minho and put her hand on his shoulder to assure him.

*-*-*-*-*

It was time for the comeback stage and the first track was Minho's solo.

His stress level had shot up a thousand times and now he was biting his fingers as if trying to get rid of them.

Laura came up to Minho and said "Ready?" with a smile.

Minho didn't feel ready, but he smiled nevertheless and nodded.

It had been years since he had first stepped on the stage but today, maybe because of the stress, he couldn't concentrate on the moves or on his song.

And he messed up.

Carelessly, while his mind was wandering about, he slapped Laura across the face and made her stumble a great deal.

But unlike him who couldn't even deal with a bit of stress, Laura was a professional and thanks to her, the performance ended without a hitch.

*-*-*-*-*

The video of Minho slapping Laura had went viral on the social media and the netizens were attacking Minho like there was no tomorrow.

Though Minho was sure that if they got their hands on him, there wouldn't be a tomorrow for him.

Since that day, he was apologizing to Laura just to receive the same sweet smile she always gave him along with a "It's not a big deal, I know you had a lot of worries."

He had to do something. He couldn't just take advantage of Laura's kind heart like that.

So, he decided to ask her out on a date.

Laura's answer to the invitation was positive.

"Yeah, I'd love to. But don't forget that I've already forgiven you, though there really wasn't anything that needed forgiveness to begin with." she had said.

*-*-*-*

'The date was perfect,' Minho thought. 'But Laura was more than perfect.'

Minho was slowly beginning to wonder if he had romantic feelings towards the dancer.

And slowly, his thoughts were moving towards 'Yes'.

"And thanks to an accident, I've realized this." he said to himself while laughing.

It was hilarious. Simply hilarious.

Then, he suddenly focused his attention towards his laptop.

Laura had uploaded a new video on her instagram.

He started playing it.

"Hey guys! This is Laura from SM Ent. How are you doing? I'm doing fine! Actually, I'm VERY happy right now! 'Cuz, though it was an accident and I really didn't mind it, Minho took me out to dinner as an apology! Sweet, isn't he?
Minho was stressed due to his solo in this comeback. That was why he had lost his focus on the performance. So don't have any ill feelings towards him, okay?
As I've said, he's a very sweet guy with a golden heart.
Good night guys! Love you!"

'Yeah,' Minho smiled to himself. 'She's more than perfect...'

Tomorrow, he would find Laura and, well, try asking her out on another date.

He was definitely gonna do that.

And there, he would confess to her.
