( CUTE NAME )

☀︎

    Loud music was playing,
and there were bodies swaying
to the rhythm.

    I was simply holding a party
cup, drinking a fruit punch, since
it was the only thing that wasn't
alcoholic nor very unhealthy.

    I sat down silently and
anxiously, as I watched many
people from school, dance their
hearts out.

    I thought myself as an actually good
dancer, but anxiety just prevented me from
being able to show it.

    As I drank from my red cup,
my friend approached me.

    I could not hear him
clearly, for he was stuck
in the large crowd of the
soon to be graduates.

    When he finally got out of the
wave of moving bodies, he dropped
himself beside me onto the couch.

    "Why aren't you dancing,
Hoseok?" He asked, panting
from dancing, sipping from
his can of soda.

    I held my drink close to my face,
and mumbled.

    "I-I'm just not a
good dancer..."

    "Oh what? C'mon!
You're always talking to us about
how good of a dancer you are,
why not show us?"

"I-I just c-can't..."

"Oh come on!"

    He pulled me up and away from
my seat and brought me onto the
dance floor, where I didn't want
to be.

    "Please don't... Jeongguk.."
I pulled onto his outfit,
desperately.

But I was too late.

    "Everybody! This is my friend, Hoseok!
He is a great dancer and wants to show
you!"

    Everybody stopped, my friend
successfully grabbing everyone
in the room's attention.

    I began to sweat and panicked nervously,
while the eyes of the many people in the very
room were locked on my shaky body.

    I did not know how to react.
I just stood there, silently, unable
to move and I couldn't get any
words to come out of my mouth.

I was speechless.

    At the moment I was about to
run away from the party, crying.

But, someone stepped into the centre
with me, where I used to stand alone.

    It was him.
The boy.

    "Hey, Hoseok,
is that your name?"

    I swallowed,
"Y-yes..."

    "Ah, it's a cute name! You
must be really good at dancing?
Are you just a shy guy?"

    "More t-than shy, i-im just a-anxious,"
I stuttered. But blushing from his
compliment on my name.

    I was so close to him,
it was unbelievable.

    "Well, that's okay! Everyone gets
nervous or anxious once in their life.
I'll help you overcome it tonight though!"

He clasped onto my wrist and brought
me onto the dance floor. My cheeks stinging
from his warm and soft hands.

    As much as I wanted to dance, I didn't
want to make an embarrassment of myself.

But, something, or rather someone,
prevented me from doing that.

    "Music, play!" He yelled,
and upbeat, jolly sounds
noised from the DJ.

    I was blushing as he moved me
around in his own arms and hands,
I couldn't help myself.

    He noticed my bright red face,
and just smiled brightly, while the
colourful lights everywhere went
from pink to blue in a snap shining
upon his face.

    "Are you nervous or is it this
handsome face?" He smirked,
giggling softly.

    "Perhaps both..." I said, aiming
to play a joke. But I truly meant
it.

    He laughed then smiled wider,
I returned one back at him.

    Maybe, this party wasn't
going bad, after all.
