         The next days, nothing really changed in Changmin's life. However, he convinced himself that Junsu let him step a bit more in his little world. Junsu never really sang again, but Changmin had found a new way for them to work together.

He had came in Their music room one day from one of the dancing lesson he still had twice a week, Junsu was also dancing. Like the previous time, he didn't stop when the younger went it, but this time, he offered him a smile in the middle of the choreography. Changmin who had been too lazy to change his clothes after his really not tiring lesson still had his sweatpants on. His bag hanging on his shoulder, he smile back to Junsu and silently leaned against the wall to sit down, his eyes focused on the show in front of him.

By the end of the song, a breathless and sweaty Junsu stopped the music. He walked toward him with this happy expression he always had on his face when he was dancing, despite the apparent tiredness of his body. Hands on his thighs, slightly panting, Junsu waited a short moment to find back a normal respiration. After a few minutes, he picked a bottle of water and drank half of it in one go.

“How long have you been dancing here alone? Changmin asked.
“I don't know... few hours maybe.”
“Few hours?” Changmin asked again as he raised an eyebrow.
“I guess so,  I wanted to move so.. yeah.”
“Then why don't you come with the trainee? Wouldn't that be better rather than being alone?”

Junsu looked at the floor and thought about it for a while.

“I don't think I'm supposed to dance. And I guess they want to keep my presence a secret.” He finally said.
“Then it fails already, Yunho already asked me why was I training with a cutie.”

Junsu blushed at the words and act as if he didn't like so much the compliment. As he noticed what he just said, Changmin cleared his throat and avoided Junsu's gaze, trying to find something to say without knowing what.

“Anyway, are you still wearing this because you wanna dance with me?” Junsu asked, flashing another bright smile.

Surprised, Changmin's eyes widened and he blinked twice to be sure he didn't hear it wrongly, making Junsu laugh with his behaviour.

“What with that face?”
“Would you really let me?” Changmin wondered out loud, showing his disbelief.
“Sure, why?” Junsu interrogated.
“Well... since you don't... you ..”
“I told you dancing is different, didn't I?” Junsu cut him off with a soft voice.
“Yeah.” Changmin answered back quietly.

Junsu wiped his face and hands with the towel he had kept on his shoulder and stretch his arm toward Changmin.

“Then now, stand up!”

Changmin looked up at him for a little while and gladly grabbed his hand to stand up, keeping it a bit too long in his before he let it go. Junsu's heart fastened and he gazed at the younger for a long time as the other didn't look away either. A very long minute later, Junsu was the first one to broke the link, taking the hint on how some things between them had this double meaning a bit too noticeable and how some moves weren't as friendly as they wished it to be. Taking a grip on himself, he put his hands behind his back and quickly walked to the Hi-Fi system.

“What would you like to do?” He asked while he looked through his I-pod to check the songs, even though he knew them all by heart.
“I don't know... the teacher here usually pick the song for us, we just have to follow.” Changmin explained.
“That's no fun.” Junsu pouted. “Huum... Do you know Choo Choo TRAIN, by Exile ?
“The Japanese band?”
“I like their dance.”Junsu nodded. “The choreography is pretty nice actually but not hard either.”
“I don't know it well, but let's try.” Changmin agreed.

Changmin barely knew the choreography, but Junsu on the other hand knew it perfectly. He could do each move almost like the original dancer, with this little thing of his that made it so much better for Changmin to see. Then following the lead just like he had spent months learning to, the younger began to take the steps, bit by bit as they played the same song again and again. If he thought he became good at dancing, Changmin quickly noticed he couldn't follow Junsu's level at all. He might not have all the technique he himself learn with the agency, his moves were really smooths, just as beautiful as his voice.

Junsu was also a good teacher, very concentrated and in his own world when he was dancing but patient when he had to explain some moves. Changmin was also very attentive and fast learner. Slowly, Junsu became more and more aware of Changmin's presence by his side when they were dancing. After some time, he learned how to dance with someone else, something he barely did before, as he had always been training by himself. Changmin who was used to dance with people but never cared about the coordination found it very different from what he knew. With Junsu, it was easier to get along, follow what his body was doing and guess was he was planning. Without thinking much, it  didn't take them long to create a new world where they were dancing together, feeling each other aura without having to look at the one by their side.

They liked the proximity they had in those moments and the sensation that they could learn about each other and understand their feelings while they danced. Just like that, they started to dance together almost everyday, giving Changmin a good reason to like practice more than he ever did. Actually, Changmin never thought he could like it that much, but dancing never ever felt this good.

Chapter 18: It was so beautiful. I really liked it ~ I loved how you described everything, from how the characters are to their emotions and everything. And the end was just perfect <3
I also want to say that I am really, really sorry. I was really busy and I couldn't finish reading your story until today. I also wanted to read it again from the beginig to remember everything, so it took me some more time. I'm really sorry.
I noticed that you also wrote some Jaemin stories and OMG Jaemin (my first ever OTP). I can't wait to read them too, now that I have a lot of free time.
Author-nim fighting! ^^

Chapter 18: Kyaaaa~ Kyaaaaaa~ Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~ (yes I'm fangirling right now) XD
I know I supposed to comment on what happened from the top to the bottom but I really can't help to not squeal first. XD This is such a nice ending! And I love it! Imagining Changmin's concert through this... OMG I want to keep smiling from time to time as I read this chapterrrrr!!!! Start from how Jaejoong improved in his problem too (and how Yoochun seemed to be a fond of him as well~ may I take this as a hinted JaeChun? /giggles/)... and then Junsu who is finally determined to be able to sing! And I like how Jaejoong told Junsu "It's your turn" after he has done with the audition. XD And I also like how Yunho played hyung role quite well here, for Changmin! Yeyyyyyy~ Yunho is such a nice Hyung for Changmin; he even took his time to meet Junsu as well. And... what else?

OwO I must be missing this fic later... This is greattttttttttt! I can imagine what every characters did here! Whaaaaaa~ <3333333
And the last scene. Ugh. Really everytime I scrolled up and read it a bit.... It's too sweet on how Changmin hugged him in the dark and how he told Junsu it's start; their duet. Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~ <3

LOL. Sorry for being quite random here. XD

Chapter 17: Whaaaaaaaaaa... it's Jaejoong! Jaejoong comes! Ahahahahahaha. XD Didn't expect to see him~ I was a bit sad and worried that Junsu got a new partner for his singing. But knowing it's Jaejoong, then it should be alright then! /positive mind on Jaejoong/ I love how you write Jaejoong and I also love how you explain why Junsu could open up to him a bit fast. It was like... naturally! And even though I imagined it would be sad for Changmin, but you wrote it like there's nothing wrong with that and there's nothing to be sad for Junsu to be with Jaejoong (in a partner-way) XD And.... oho~ I also love it when you showed that Yoochun changed because of Jaejoong too... and they even grew closer as well! Yeay~ <3 lol. And whoa, I'm amazed! Despite everything, Junsu's feeling for Changmin was written rather clear. I can feel how Junsu felt for Changmin... It is really well-written! I wanna cry when Junsu started singing Kajima... Junsu~~~ >"< /hugs Junsu again/ This is beautifulllllll... Reading this was as if I really heard Junsu's singing and how he sang it whole-heartedly. OMG!!!! And the end of chapter- ASADFGHJKL Hurray, Changmin watched him!!!!!!! And he got the ticket! Hehehehehe. Really glad Jaejoong is so supportive! <3

Nyah, to the next chapter!!!

Chapter 16: this one is so sadddddddd.... especially the last part when Junsu and Changmin met and... how he felt it like a goodbye kiss. >"< That scene is so touching yet sad. /sniffs sobs sobs/ And it must be hard for Junsu, right? To think that he has to- no, he wants to believe and trust Changmin yet at the same time he saw everywhere that Changmin would make a debut by himself. It must be like... you know that you believe in him but at the same time the facts are betraying you. Like either you have to take what has been proven or what your precious one said. /hugs junsu/
Uh- oh o_o Didn't expect Junsu to get a new partner.... I wonder who that would be and I wonder whether Junsu is capable to do it with that new partner? :O But I think I get your idea (?) XD That you want to show both of their improvement; from depending one with another, to be independent and able to stand by themselves proudly? (just a rough assumption though. XDXDXD)

Chapter 18: Finally, finished it. It's way complete different from the movie i told u before... I'm glad Junsu can overcome his fear for singing in front of public. It's like a turning point for Junsu from a secretive singer to be public singer. It's a big move to make such progress. I love the ending also 'Wish' song. Great!

Chapter 15: Ouchie~ Should I be glad upon the fact that the company recognized Changmin's talent? Because... no! It's scary... scary because then what's going to happen with Junsu if it's like this. >"< And scary because Junsu seemed to be as determined to let Changmin go alone. But... but they've been through everything with the two of them! Even though yes, Changmin sang great and well by himself, but that performance was for Junsu! He can't sing as great if he never met Junsu! (not that I underestimate him... but I guess that was why the company never knew Changmin's talent before) So... yes it's so scaryyyyy~

Though I am glad that at the end of chapter Junsu finally decided to believe in Changmin... though it's still scary to know what's going to be happened and how if the director didn't agree- because no matter what Changmin said he has proven enough that he could sing. >"< But but... I trust you unn! XP You're not as cruel as me /evil laughs. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~
