Jongin had chosen to stay back after dance practice.

Of course, that wasn’t out of the ordinary. Being the lead dancer, he needed to perfect every movement and step, improve his fluidity and technical level. The other members and his fans would disagree that he needed to improve himself any further. However, Jongin had always been a perfectionist growing up. Every pirouette he did had to be executed perfectly, no sickle feet, complete with emotion – No matter how exhausted he was. And so he continued on as he stared back at the reflection, intense gaze never leaving his body, even as the remaining boys filed out of the room.

Jongin was already drenched in sweat, but he didn’t seem fazed at all. Kyungsoo had thrown a concerned glance over his shoulder before leaving. ‘What if he catches a cold?’ The singer sighed sadly, before shaking his head and joining the rest. Kyungsoo hated the thought of his boyfriend falling sick, because that meant taking care of him, not that he didn’t already do that every day. But a grumpy Jongin was always harder to take care of. Though the younger’s health was always first priority to Kyungsoo, this time, there was something else even more important nagging at the back of his mind. This didn’t go unnoticed by Baekhyun, who had thrown an arm over the other’s shoulder, a sympathetic smile gracing his features as he comforted his friend.

“I told you he’d forget about Valentine’s Day.”
