It was ten p.m. when finally Ten left the practice room. He was out of breathe but he ran anyway in the lockroom to have a shower. He just had half an hour until his shift at the bar begins. Even tho he knew nobody was going to text him - apart from his family, maybe - he checked his notifications anyway. There was one from the weird app.

Ten would have texted with the other a lot more, but he had to pay attention to work. He could reply to Johnny only a lot later, when he came back home.
For the thousandth time he came back home alone. He realized he didn't miss his ex boyfriend because he really loved him, but just because he needed someone in his life who could have filled his emptiness. Ten was sad because he realized he developed affection for that boy just because he needed not to be lonely and not because he really loved him.
He had Joy but they couldn't see each other so often because of reharsals and work, and then he didn't know anyone else. In that moment he asked himself if he could trust the girl anymore. What was that weird app? It was Joy's fault if some weird strangers were now hacking his social networks.
He ran the app anyway. At least someone was talking to him now.

[ten, 02:44 19/06/2017]: Goodnight Johnny!!
[Johnny, 02:47 19/06/2017]: Goodnight Ten!

Right after looging out Ten fell asleep without needing any help. The embarrassment from the conversation he had with Johnny arrived the following morning, while he was having a cold shower. Why did he invite him at work? He knew he did nothing wrong, he was just curious to know him, to know who was the person "on the other side", but he felt weird. He just hoped Johnny didn't misunderstand.
Trying to distract himself from that thoughts, he started thinking about the choreography he learned the previois day. It was very simple, but he wasn't sure about obtaining the center part. That evening he was going to ignore his teacher's advice and he would've joined rehearsals anyway.
Thinking about that he want to the cafeteria. When he was there Ten wore the black apron waiters had to wear on a black jeans and a t-shirt of the same colour. Ten was waiting for the first clients to arrive. Katia, the girl who had that had the previous shift, left, leaving him alone waiting for the others.

In that moment the first client arrived. He sat on a table in the back. Ten went to him to dive him a menu hoping not to be recognized. It was a student from his academy. They never talked earlier, but Ten saw him often at reharsals.
The student was one of the most attractive ones. He was a foreigner, maybe American. His hair were so soft, Ten noticed that a lot because the boy used to pass his hands over them. He also had soft lips and a beautiful nose. And his neck was attractive too, and he danced so well...
"Hi" Ten greeted the other, trying not to think that ridiculous things. He left the menu on the table and said "Call me whenever you're ready to order".
"Oh, I don't need the menu, thanks. I just need a donut and a coffee... American, please."
Ten nodded and went to prepare the ordination. He smiled so wide when he gave the food to the other boy: he thanked Ten, and nobody used to thank waiters anymore.
