Lilli took a deep breath seeing the figure inside the room filled with instruments and wrinkled sheets. She entered, causing the boy to flinch nstantly and fix his glasses, confused.

"Uhm,  Namjoon? Kim Namjoon?" She asked, she knew it was him, but she acted as if she didn't.

"Oh, yeah that's me..." His eyes trembled in confusion before blinking twice "Is there something I can do for you?" The confusion in his voice disppeared, and he mentally scoffed realizing how he was trying to be fooled, It was either to convince him to go to her party in order Yoongi goes, or it was a prank coming from Kendall. Why else would Lilli be talking to him?

"Ah well, you see... Taehyung told me I should ask you for help since I'm doing pretty bad at maths..." Namjoon furrowed his eyebrows immediatly, Taehyung? He knew him, he used to help him with his projects because the pretty boy was indeed not the smartest. 

Lilli noticed his uneasiness and shook her head quickly "I will pay you if you want!" She assured quickly.

Namjoon massaged his temple, he remembered that Lilli fought with Kendall so this was not coming from her. "Fine, when do you want to start?" 

"Uhh... Well I have I exam next week so the sooner the best I guess?" 

"Okay" Namjoon wrinkled the sheet on his hand and threw it away "I'm not having motivation with these lyrics anyways"

"Lyrics?" She furrowed her eyebrows, smiling.

Namjoon froze, "Nothing, forget it" he shook his head taking in his hand the math book Lilli handed him as she smiled to herself as she took one of the sheets that landed on the floor, placing it inside her bag without being noticed.

Courtney sighed sitting down on the floor on the dance practice room. The cheerleaders routine was giving her a hard time and Lilli was too busy studying to help her, though she gave her a lot of tips, it wasn't the easiest choreo either.

Courtney sat down on the floor, panting while daydreaming s she stared at the shiny floor and at the sweat dripping on her legs. She flinched hearing the door being opened, and the shock didn't leave her face when she saw the familiar boy in front of her, just as or even more shocked than her.

"Courtney?" He asked, actually to himself.

"Hi Hoseok" She looked away embarassed, should she leave? she thought.

"Uhm- Why are you here- I mean" Heshook his head "I come here every day and I have never seen you" 

"Oh yeah I started practicing the cheerleaders routine... Actually I already started long ago but practiced at home and I thoguht this would be a nice place" she shrugged and Hoseok nodded before slowly approaching her and putting his bag next to hers on the floor.

"And how is it going?" He asked sitting down next to her, causing her to tense up a bit, but luckily without being noticed.

"Well... Not that good" she admitted and chuckled, causing the dark haired boy to smile too.

"And when is the competition?" he played with the bracelet on his hand while asking, trying to not sound that interested.

"Well, In two weeks and a half" 

"And you barely know the choreo?" He asked concerned, as she pursed her lips together, embarassed.

"Aish" Hoseok stood up and offered her his hand, catching her offguard "I will help you" He said smiling brightly, that smile courtney hated to admit that she missed, and without thinking twice, she took his hand.

‥...━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━...‥

After a tiring day for both, Courtney and Lilli walked home with heavy and lazy steps.

"But I'm happy he accepted helping me, though I have to pay" Lilli chuckled after rolling her eyes. "What about you? How did practice go?"

"Uhm- Well I got some help too" Courtney scratched the back of her head seeing the confused expression approaching her friend's face. "Hoseok helped me"

"HoSEOK?!" Lilli stopped and Courtney couldn't help but chuckle "He knows how to dance?"

"He does, and he is great" She smiled widely but covered it afterwards trying to not get noticed.

"Wow so he is really someone who keeps a lot of secrets. Why don't you expose him? He confuses you and he also made you really sad" She furrowed her eyebrows.

"No... what for" Courtney fixed her eyes on the floor as she kicked a small rock with each step. Lilli observed her closely before chuckling and gaining her attention.

"You still like him don't you? That's why you don't do it" She pinched Courtney's check but she didn't answer noticing that they already reached their houses.

"Did you invite Namjoon?" The straight haired girl remembered that without him, Yoongi will not be going to the party.

"Ahh not yet, tomorrow I will" Lilli assured.

"Okay and..." grabbing the knob she turned around to see her friend again "Invite Jimin if not, my mum is not letting me go" 

She heard her friend shout "WHAT?" and chuckling, she closed the door without giving her an appropiate explanation.
