It was almost midnight when Jaehyun was finished with his shift and started leaving for home. Well, it always gets midnight as he had late night shifts which made it a bit hard for him to get home alone regularly. But he couldn't complain as it was his own choice to not live at the bar anymore.

He might have grown inside the bar as it was his boss and other seniors that raised him, but after he grew more and became more independent, he chose to have a home of his own so he could live his personal time in a place which wasn't labelled negatively.

“Hey sweetheart. How much for a night?” Jaehyun hears a drunk man in tux murmuring to him as he exits the bar. Jaehyun just ignored the man and kept walking steadily.

“Pretty much in a rush? We can take it slow baby. You should not disappoint your client like this.” Jaehyun hears the voice again, as well as the footsteps behind him. The man was freaking following him.

The dancer began to panic but this time he replied to turn the man's offer down. “I'm not what you're thinking.”

“What do you think, what I think?” The sound came nearer.

“I don't sell my body.” Jaehyun confirmed and tried to speed up his walking but his body entirely got stunned when a hard grip went onto his wrist.

“You kidding me? You can let us roam our eyes on your body for money then why not let us roam our hands as well?”

Slap!

“Keep your hands off of me you fucktard!” Jaehyun spat and the man just looked for a moment in shock while holding his cheek.

Just as Jaehyun was about to walk away, another harsh hold came onto him and started pulling off his coat. “You nullius slut!” The drunken man screeched in rage as he removed Jaehyun's coat entirely, revealing his thin see through shirt inside. “Let me show your real worth.”

Punch!

Jaehyun looked in surprise at the man who was now knocked down on the floor. He then looked at the person who caused the scene.

The newly appeared person was also wearing a purple simple yet elegant tux. Wow, it was weird that Jaehyun noticed this new man a bit differently. Well, it could be the man's utter fierceness that he had despite his height being shorter than Jaehyun himself. Or the intensive charming smile he had on his face despite being in such a fucked up situation.

“Fucker you should stay out of this!” The drunken man yelled at the person who had punched him while getting and settling himself up to attack back.

“And you should learn how to respect men.” The charming man softly said before landing another smack and his voice was just as hot as the man himself and Jaehyun should stop himself from thinking those things.

The two then stomped at each other but not so surprisingly the wasted man got wasted again and finally had to run to save his ass from this helplessly fascinating man. “You alright?”

Jaehyun's reverie got broken by the man's question and he noticed the man was forwarding his coat back to him and wow… He was indeed helplessly fascinating now that Jaehyun was facing him straight.

His skin was shining gold even in such darkness. Probably the complexion of his sun kissed shade. And he undeniably sculpted moles. And his eyes were just clipping Jaehyun inside out. It felt as if Jaehyun couldn't do anything but stare at the man in amusement, which he obviously was doing. Which he should not. “Y-yeah. Thanks uhh…”

“Donghyuck. The name's Lee Donghyuck.” The man introduces himself while still standing with Jaehyun's coat in his hands, waiting for the latter to take and wear it.

Jaehyun realizes that he was still staring and keeping the man standing there with his coat like a standee. He smiles sheepishly as he takes his cloth and rolls it on. “Please to you, Donghyuck. I'm… Jaehyun.”

“I know, Jaehyun. What I would want to know is, what you're still doing here? Wasn't your session over about an hour ago?”

“Uhh, yeah. It was actually but…” Jaehyun stops for a moment before he realizes, “Wait, how do you know that I'm, that I'm uhh…”

Donghyuck chuckles at the latter's mumbling. “Dancer? Oh of course I do. And who would not acknowledge such an amazing dancer like you.”

The taller man blushes at the compliment. Nobody has ever complimented him as a dancer. Let alone an amazing dancer. “I uhh… I don't think if others acknowledge me as a dancer. Or even as a normal person.”

“I mean, you're way astonishing to be just a normal person so...” The sunkissed man nonchalantly points and Jaehyun giggles.

“That was such a sweet remark, Donghyuck. But it doesn't change the reality.” A sad smile appeared on Jaehyun's face.

“Hey, hey Jae… Yes, the reality can't be changed and the reality is that you're really an independent and humble person. You see, people are people, they ain't so simple. One way or another, they will always find a way to drag down others. Their judgement doesn't define your worth. And surprisingly, you seem to be knowing your worth pretty well assuming your bold action to that poor man.”

Jaehyun couldn't control anymore and started openly laughing. “It's hard to tell if you're serious or you're joking.” He spoke as he held onto his laughter.

“Well, you can take it the way you like and I'll just let it flow with the vibe.”

“Oh gosh… You're undeniably entertaining.” The dancer compliments

“Only for your entertainment, Jae.” Donghyuck expressively purrs only to get panic after seeing Jaehyun making a confused expression. Maybe the latter noticed what he addressed him and maybe he didn't like it.

“Ahh, I'm sorry if you didn't like it. I won't call you that again just please don't slap me.” Donghyuck apologizes while shielding his hands in front in case Jaehyun would actually slap.
