@nα jαєmín *lets out a deep breath*
Okay okay. You can do whatever you want.
*smiles and leads you to the dance floor, starts moving a bit to the music, holding you close as I wrapped my arm around your waist*
Things are still chill here, huh. I wonder how it'll progress through the night.
*looks around then back at you*
@jєσn chαnghα Not to forget that you've got the enjoyment of someone else's company too, unless that doesn't entirely matter do you. But you seem to be on the clingy side, cause you're always in some way holding onto me when we meet up.
nodding lightly in response, I then take a moment too examine your face before confirming my assumption was right.
That most certainly is.
though your following words had my cheeks flushed their usual rosy shade, and I found myself briefly turning my head away to clear my throat
Well, it was the first time he's honestly asked someone on a date of sorts, after all. So can you blame him for being all flustered and fidgety?
I soon found my lips parting to let out a soft string of laughter, especially at how childish your expression had become
Well, I've been getting better at dancing in general, and besides. I've got to be able to pick up on dances quickly.
I'm just glad you haven't stepped on mine, and no, that's not an invitation to purposely step on them now-
I add the second half of my statement rather quickly after, my hands slipping towards the small of your back in which my fingers lace together and rest upon it
@lєє mínhчuk Maybe a little.
i echo through smiling lips while I watch as you adjust the tie, though seeing how you needed to fix it brought out a deeper tone of rouge to my cheeks, but nonetheless, I can't help but lean in to press a soft kiss against your lips
A nice dinner out... Something we can just wear a nice dress sure and pants to... Seems like something we can certainly do together. I'll definitely think about it.
after speaking in a soft tone, I let out a sort of purr at the touch of your lips before keeping your form drawn close to my own
I feel as if you may think too confidently.
releases a hush laugh while I looked down within your eyes, only to opt to lean in and rest my forehead against yours, eyes falling closed as I sway with you in my arms
I love you a lot, Minhyuk... I really do..
@чαn αn ... *parts my lips to explain my point when you start but as you go on and clock it, I point an index at you*
Exactly. No limit. And get stuff directly than handing me the money and then go buy stuff.
Smart but sneaky, isnt that just me in a nutshell? *smirks cheekily but proudly at that before I shake my head, amusement dripping off my voice*
Please, he was too cute, too flustered and fidgety to say no to. I couldnt even much in such state.
Good. *nods at the prepared part of getting teased, grinning childishly. My gaze shift from our feet to your face with pleased and happy smile as you follow quick and well*
You arent bad yourself, getting hold of it quick.
And im not bad because I had my share of stepping on lots of feet before. *snorts, sliding the hand on your chest higher up to hook its fingers with my other hand thats already on your nape*
@nα jαєmín *chuckles softly at your words*
I know you don't like wearing masks, but we should, just for tonight, hmm?
*caresses your cheek, looks around*
Seems like it is filled already. Do you want to take a seat first or eat already?
And to be honest, I don't want them to see how gorgeous you are tonight, I want to, for once, not share you with anyone else, Jaemin.
*looks into your eyes as I already have my mask on, opens the door and wraps your arm around mine, leading you inside the place*
@kαng чσngjín@jσєl pímєntєl Oh please, i'm a heavy drinker but i can still handle myself. Besides, this is a ball after all, it's a differeny occassion, i need to keep my chill on such event -emits a breathy chuckle, waving a palm at joel from his own words- you know that i'm not that kind of emotional human -leans my body to the bar counter, scanning my eyes through the liquor before peeking my eyes to gaze at the crowd of peoples on the dancing floor, nodding at yongjin's word- i do share lots of braincells with yong, i have to agree on that. And you two, gentleman -eyes back the both of you as i give a stern expression- don't drink too much and at least have a go at that ball dance together, yea?
@rí чuє чασ maybe a little..
I utter softly before raising a hand to gently curl my fingers beneath the loop of your tie, giving it a gentle tug as I fixed its position, the silk fabric pleasing to my touch. raising my gaze up towards your flustered state, I silently admire the pink hue that dusted over the apple of your cheeks, a warm smile gracing my lips before i released a low hum, my hand releasing your tie before moving to secure itself behind your neck once more
I think it is..? We've never gone on a formal date or anything-- which isn't something i need, by the way. Though..a nice dinner out from time to time would be refreshing.
I murmured and as I spoke, I felt the delicate touch of your fingers against my hips, your softly spoken words earning a light chuckle from my lips before i drew you closer, my smaller form leaning up in order to press a chaste kiss against your lips
you'll do fine..
I whispered before beginning to slowly sway in time with the music, deep brown orbs locking upon your own
@kím jínhwαn@jσєl pímєntєl Holy movement- *snorts at the way jinhwan puts it, clicking my tongue adding playfully with a fake cough* you never liked holy things anyway-
Well you see, I feel like im combination of you two...? I relate to Jinhwan on some stuff and other stuff with you, Jewel, with the oldest here being the loudest. *grins cheekily side eyeing Jinhwan*
But definitely a drink first. *speaks genuinely before I nod at the drink part, standing by the mini bar and looking through the different liquors, biting my lip with sheepish smile at Joel words and expectations before I look at Jinhwan who knows how it is for me by now, I let out an awkward chuckle as I rub my nape and in air*
Well....i dont think i have /that/ great tolerance but lets hope i dont get drunk that easily.
@hwαng hчunjín I'm pretty good, actually. Don't worry, I'll lead you, I suppose? Although with swaying, no one really takes the lead.
/laughs softly and rests my hands on your hips, swaying from side to side with you
@kαng чσngjín@kím jínhwαn /as we walk to the bar area, i snort at yongjin’s words before pursing my lips to playfully comment. oh? so you also need a drink to break the ice, huh? i thought you yourself had it in you as well. guess i’m not the only one. /my lips curve into a wide grin as i shrug and before i’m able to order my drink, i scoff at jinhwan. i don’t think yongjin and i will be the one’s needing to be taken care of. i’m positive we can handle our alcohol pretty well, right yongjin? /turns to yongjin before glancing back at jinhwan. we should be the one’s concerned about you. /gently places a hand upon jinhwan’s shoulder, my amused grin intact. you could start getting into your feelings by just one sip.
@jєσn chαnghα See, now look, Food and shopping. That's still paying you with money if you think about it! They're just spending it on you anyways rather than just giving it to you. Except there may not be a limit to how much they spend whereas giving you money would require a fixed amount. Smart but sneaky, but if it gets you what you want then why not?
snickering under my breath, I then poke my tongue passed my lips once more at the sound of your light laughter
I mean, I'd be pretty easy to say no, unless you were hoping he would.
He'd probably be grateful if you did, since he's always been too busy for any of those things. He's probably prepared for a whole lot of teasing too.
shifting my own gaze to our feet, I things were a bit of a struggle at first, though once a decent rhythm falls into place with our steps, I adjust rather quickly and I find myself smiling towards the floor
You're not /that/ bad at dancing.
People? Are we some mafia now? Slit people open and steal their organs to sell in black market?
But probably food. And shopping. Be my sugar daddy for a day, or days. *grins childishly proud at my kind of payment*
Except for that part~ *drags the first word as if adding to my previous statement in agreement with you, snorting at my own self before a playful chuckle also escapes*
Well with how he asked me to be with him here how could I say no?
And he could be my student...? I shall teach me all whats between +2 people.
Well except for dancing- *heaves in a breath as I slowly and carefully start us off, looking down at our feet not to step on you or vice versa until we get hold of the rhythm and sequence*
@jєσn chαnghα ( and of course my computer didn't register me switching charas LMAO
Yeah.. Maybe a bit more than one would've enjoyed at times.
I then shake my head in defeat with rather playful roll of my eyes, though I stop with rapidly fluttering lashes
Not with money...? You saying your payments are with people then--? Well, that could be expected from you, so I'm not /entirely/ surprised.
snickers beneath my breath, only for it to turn into full out laughter when you suddenly squint at me, though I could see right through the feigned actions.
Oh really? I beg to differ, because you've got the opinion of the guy you tease the most~
now this time it was my own teasing tone within my voice, but i ultimately shake my head and nod in agreement, my hands hesitant for a moment before they drift down to rest upon your waist
It's not too late to change your mind you know? You can run now while you've got the chance, cause you've agreed to attend the masquerade with the guy who probably has the least experience in terms of activities that require more than just myself.
@чαn αn There was indeed. *grins, a chuckle escaping after all, my playful tone referring to the unnecessary pressure I applied when you teased me*
Oh its not with money. Well, it could be but I prefer other things.
What do you mean /if/ I am nice enough? Im nicest guy out there-! *squints at you as if really mad before I click my tongue as I add pretending to got unjustified. When you look down on me I do the same, looking down at my own body to check if there is something before I blink at your words, my teeth and shaking my head though in amusement*
This is gonna be a mess- *i said as I rest my forearms on your shoulders, figuring it would get too tiring for my arms too quick due to blood draining due to how tall you are and thus I lower my hands to rest one on your chest and other one to delicately rest against your nape*
@jєσn chαnghα peering down in your direction, I raised a brow in the slightest at your words before once again releasing a light laugh in response
Okay, it wasn't a proper massage, but there was some pressure applies to the rubbing. Oh yeah? And what's your rates like? Maybe I'll spread the word for ya if you're nice enough.
pokes the tip of my tongue passed my grinning lips before taking a moment to clear my throat and do a quick once over of your smaller frame
And I've never really slow danced with someone before, so this is going to be interesting to say the least.
@чαn αn Nothing I couldnt handle. *purses my lips before I shrug with a faint smirk, holding onto your hand and following your guide*
Oh that was barely a rub. I could give a full massage session- but I gotta be paid for that. *grins innocently as I turn my body toward yours to stand facing you ready for the dance*
Careful though. Im not best dancer.
@chrís hєmswσrth are you any good at dancing with a partner? i’m certainly not.
/rests my hands on your shoulders as i gaze up into your eyes. we can just sway together.
@jєσn chαnghα I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long?
though I spoke through smiling lips, and even found myself laughing quietly as I slipped my hand into yours, leading you over to the open expanse of the ballroom floor
You know, your massage must've helped a lot, so thank you gain for that.
@чαn αn Oh, thought you wouldn't ask. *grins cheekily, I sassily offer you my hand to take, adding with more genuine grin*
And Im glad you are feeling better
@lєє mínhчuk You love it though, admit it.
with a light smile adorning my lips, I watched how your eyes moved around my frame, and in the midst of your scan, I brought my hands up to briefly adjust the tie hanging loose around my neck, and your response had my cheeks painted in a soft shade of pink in response
You know, trying to think back.. I think this is really the first time I've dressed up specifically for you? Unless I have before and completely forgot, but...
mumbles beneath my breath while my hands sink down between up to tenderly caress your hips, and my eyes flickered back up to meet yours again with a growing smile
You know, I think I can manage that much at least.
@rí чuє чασ I--
yes, of course. because i have a very corny fiance.
I snort out softly, my eyes soon drifting over towards your standing form in front of me. for a moment, I simply stand in silence, deep brown orbs slowly scanning your slender form in its dressed up attire, and I took in a sharp inhale before whispering quietly
but i'm just as cheesy and have the urge to say that you look stunning. i love it when you dress up.
and with that being sad, I slowly raise my arms and loop them around your neck, a tender smile gracing my lips as our eyes met
do you think you'll be capable of swaying to the sound of the music?
@lєє mínhчuk trailing beside you, I take in the sight of the ballroom with a soft hum in agreement to your whispered words, though I'm soon walking you to the open space in the middle of the ballroom, lips curling upward as I move to stand in front of you
Perhaps, but you know I'm going to say you look better, right?
