A pleasant moment
Smart froze when he saw the lively, colorful place.
Girls and boys with almost perfect features were trying on clothes and running around.
Big lights shone on every corner, almost blinding him.
Further away, endless rows of costumes and outfits were laid out, designed down to the smallest detail.
A rhythmic, loud music played in the background while models walked along the runway.
Smart turned around, looking with surprise but also a hidden excitement.
His eyes clearly showed that he was enjoying everything he saw.
He looked at Jin, who stood with his hands in his pockets, watching Smart's reactions.
— Jin, — Smart asked, surprised and a little lost, — don't tell me… all of this is your work? All of this?
Jin didn't answer. He just looked him in the eyes, a very slight, almost invisible smile appearing on his lips.
— What do you think? — he said, winking.
Smart couldn't find any words.
— I… I… don't know… — he stammered, scratching his head.
Jin stepped a little closer, keeping his hands in his pockets, giving the impression of a strong, confident guy. His voice was calm:
— Yes, I'm the one who made all of this.
This is one of the company rooms where the fashion show will take place.
I'm the owner of "Deep Style."
What.?Surprised? — he asked , looking straight into his eyes.
Smart was almost shocked.
It seemed impossible that a "bad boy" looking guy could actually be such an artist, creating such beautiful clothes.
— He looks more like a mafia guy… no way… he must be lying to me, — he thought, lost in his thoughts.
At that moment, a girl from the staff approached
— Hey, boss! How do the preparations look? I hope everything is according to your taste? — she said, smiling.
— Yes, everything is going well, — Jin replied calmly.
Smart was even more confused.
— Wow, it's real! He didn't lie… now what do I do? — he thought, pushing his hair from his eyes.
— And this cute guy with these big, beautiful eyes… who is he? — the girl said, moving closer to Smart.
Jin took two steps forward, not letting her come any closer, signaling with his eyes for her to step back.
— Okay-okay, — she said, taking steps back, — enough distance, right, boss? — she added with irony.
Smart smiled at her pleasant attitude and stepped forward to introduce himself.
— Hi, I'm Smart, — he said, shaking her hand.
— Hi Smart, I'm Mei, Jin's assistant. Nice to meet you, — she replied, shaking his hand a little harder than needed.
Jin's gaze focused on their joined hands, and a sudden feeling ignited inside him. Without control, he immediately pulled her hand away from Smart.
Both Smart and Mei looked at each other: What just happened?
Mei was an elegant girl, with long black hair reaching the middle of her back. Her sweet face made her look very friendly.
— Hey Smart, — she said, — you are perfect for modeling!
— Ah no-no, — Smart replied, crossing his arms, — I'm not a model, I have nothing to do with this field.
— What are you saying? You're perfect for this job. Such a beautiful face and a fit body should be on the runway!
Smart lowered his eyes, feeling embarrassed
— Boss, — she said seriously, — "Deep Style" needs this face. — Then she left, waving her hand.
— Jin, believe me, I'm not for this. You need a professional. I appreciate that you thought of me, but… — started Smart.
Jin interrupted immediately, in a commanding tone:
— Don't speak anymore!
Smart was caught off guard and just swallowed hard.
— You are exactly who I want, — Jin said, staring into his eyes.
— Who wants? What does that mean? What's the meaning? Oh God, I'm losing it! — Smart thought, overwhelmed.
— For this job, — Jin finally explained.
Smart felt cold sweat on his forehead.
He breathed heavily and said quietly:
— I don't know anything about this world I see… — lowering his eyes.
— Then Mei will be the one to teach you everything, — Jin decided in the moment.
— No-no, — Smart said, embarrassed, — why bother with me? Take a professional. He's used to it and won't tire you. — He took a few steps back, turned, and headed for the door to leave.
Jin grabbed his arm, pulling him close, and whispered:
— Did I allow you to leave?
Smart felt his body pressed against Jin's. His heart raced, ready to burst. Breathing became difficult, as if the air had disappeared.
Such a nice scent… he thought, lost in Jin's eyes.
Jin, having him so close, barely controlled his emotions. He had waited a long time for this moment, and finally Smart was breathing near him.
He lost himself in those big eyes, imagination running wild and uncontrollable.
Suddenly, hip-hop music started playing in the background.
Smart turned toward the stage and saw three boys dancing to the beat.
His eyes lit up with joy. He didn't need to speak; his smile said it all.
Jin watched a few steps behind, smiling widely. He adored this pure gesture of happiness.
Now he knew: Smart loved dancing.
Even though he had only seen him dance once that night at "Light," he immediately sensed that Smart's true dream was dancing.
Smart turned to Jin with a big smile and said without thinking twice:
— Jin, I'll work for you! — and started moving to the rhythm of the music.
Jin had been almost certain: the moment Smart saw the dancers, he wouldn't resist.
Finally, he felt relieved. Smart would be with him every day.
Smart, full of adrenaline from the music and atmosphere, didn't even realize he had spoken without thinking.
When the music stopped, he knew clearly: there was no turning back.
After the scene
Elsewhere, Leo's phone lit up. A message appeared on the screen:
"Everything worked… thanks for finding the dancers. – Jin"
Leo smiled and went back to sleep
