   Owen gave his number to Steven before they started to make some dance steps for upcoming school event. Steven is a great dancer, and Owen admired him for being great. 

    "En.. I think we should add some spicy moves." Steven suddenly stopped and look at him. 

He then get the towel that Steven lend to him. Wiping his sweat while waiting for Steven to finish making new steps. 

   "Can I hug you from behind? I also need to touch your face while you are leaning to the right." He asked his permission while explaining. 

   "It's not a problem" he said.. "It's actually good idea." He continued and put down the towel back to the floor. 

Owen walks closer to Steven and stand in front of him then turned his body and face the mirror. 

   

   "I guess putting one of your hands in my stomach is also great. Let's try it." He said. 

Steven approved and they started dancing again. That's the 6th steps they made. They still need to create other steps, and for sure they can't finished it in one time practice. 

After a short period of time they finally stopped and take their rest. Steven get some water and give it to him. 

   "I'm very surprised that you can actually learn some moves in just one try." Steven said. 

   "Haha! I'm also surprised with myself." He said. 

Steven chuckled and just stare at Owen for how many seconds. 

    "I guess I have to go home now, It's a bit late." Owen said. 

    "Well, I can take you home by my car. Please give me a moment to change." Steven stands up and went towards the door inside studio. Owen thinks that it is his changing room. 

    "I will ask my mom to build me something like this too." He murmured. 

He pick his phone and look at it. There's a lot of messages from Leon. 

    Leon: Message me when you finished. 

    Leon: What do you want to eat?

    Leon: It's already late, where are you?

    Leon: Hey Owen! Can't you at least read my messages?

    Leon: Come back now! 

Owen chuckled after reading it. Leon is sure worried to death now. This is the reason why he falls for him. This kind of messages.. He misinterpreted it and let himself develop this scary feelings for Leon. 

     "I'm back, let's go?" Steven speaks behind him. 

    "En. Let's go." He answered. 

Owen forget to message back Leon and just followed Steven to his car. Steven open the door for him so he can enter. He waited for him to get inside the car and finally they started to move. 

    "We need to practice again tomorrow, same time same place. I think it's better if you bring your extra clothes so you can change your clothes after dancing." 

Steven is showing him his concern which is very touching. 

    "Thanks for the reminder.. I'll do it for sure." Owen said. 

They didn't speak for 3 minutes and Steven only speak when he asked him where to turn. 

    "Left" he said. "Then you can stop your car in front of the black gate." 

    "Got it!" Steven said while smiling. 

Owen didn't wait long and they finally arrived. Steven get down first and open the door beside Owen. 

    "You don't need to do that." He said. 

    "I insist." Steven said. 

Owen chuckled and accepted the hand of Steven that's waiting for him. 

    "Thanks." 

     "En. Then, see you again tomorrow." Steven bid a farewell to Owen before getting back inside his car. And drove away before Owen get inside the gate. 

When Owen opened the door of the house, he saw Leon standing in the living room wearing a fierce look on his face. 

     "It's late. Do you know what time is it?" He asked Owen with a cold voice. 

Owen sighed.. This again. This kind of wording. He feels like Leon is nagging him like a boyfriend who caught his partner getting home late. And it's irritating. So frustrating. How can he not fall for this guy if he keeps acting like this? Then what? He will tell him that his acting like an older brother of him which very reasonable. 

     "It's not that late." He said while removing his clothes. 

     "It's already 10 in the evening! You didn't even eat! Wait.. Have you eaten yet?" Leon paused before asking it. 

    "No, not yet." He answered. He unbuttoned his school uniform and removed it from his body. 

    "Why didn't you text me back?" Leon asked again. 

    "I read your messages late, and because I am also on my way home, I didn't text back." He answered while walking towards the shower room. "Let me take a bath first, we will eat after." 

Leon didn't react nor answered. He just turned around and prepare their foods on the table. This man is really stubborn sometimes. He think. 

   "Are you guys gonna practice again tomorrow?" Leon suddenly ask. 

   "Yeah, we have to." Owen answered. 

   "I wanna watch."  

   "No! You cant!" Owen shouted. 

   "Why can't i?" Leon squinted while looking at the shower room door. 

   "I don't like someone watching my dance practice.. You knew that." He said. 

    "But I always watched you when you were practicing before?" 

    "That was before, and I was the only one practicing. This time is different."

Leon didn't say a words. He felt something wrong.

    "Who are you?" Angelica is asking Steven with a hint of admiration in her eyes. Owen is nervous right now. Did they heard what they were talking about? He doesn't notice that Steven is actually staring at him at this moment. Maybe the guy read what is on his mind and suddenly grabbed his hands before answering the question of Angelica. "I'm Steven, Owen's friend and his dance partner." Steven smiled but didn't even reach his eyes. "Wen-wen, Leon and I want to invite you to buy some snacks. Wanna come?" Angelica didn't give her attention to what Steven said and directly ask him instead. After 8 years of being away to each other, Owen noticed that Angelica is now acting so different.

Owen can't take it anymore so he answered, "I'm sorry I can't, I already accepted Steven's invitation before you guys arrived. So maybe next time?" This

"Or do you want to go back home for now?" Steven asked him when he noticed that he ain't talking. "Should i?" He asked him too. If what they think is the truth, then he doesn't want to face Leon for now. "If you want.. " Owen!" They both turned their heads looking for the owner of that voice who called Owen's name. "Huh! Look who's here?" Steven can't hide his bitterness and anger when he saw Leon walking towards them. He even pulled Owen and hide him behind his back. Owen didn't react, he just stay where Steven put him and looking down at his shoes. He didn't dare to look at Leon's eyes to hide his disappointment and the pain that he is hiding in his eyes.

    "Why? Are you still mad?" Leon sits straight and he's trying to read Owen's mind. "No. It's not like that. I just.. Can't." How can he able to tell him his true reason? If Leon's accepting his sexual orientation because they are friends. Will he also able to accept his feelings? Of course not! The answer is already obvious! Leon will possibly leave and hate him for sure. "Then why? Tell me the reason." "I want to try to live alone for now." He lied. "Live alone? How can you say you are living alone if you're actually living with someone else's house and the owner is also living in there?" Leon comb his hair with his own hands out of frustration. "If you want to sleep in seperate rooms with me, then we can just buy a big house for us to live in. It's easy." Leon continued. "We don't have money that we owned.." Owen disapproved. Leon paused for a second and started to think. "Then, I guess I should accept those offers?" He turn

    "Never mind. Forget my question." Owen tried to change the topic when Steven answered. "And if I am? Are you going to avoid me?"He can't find his voice to answer those words from Steven. Why did he asked him if he can't stand the answer? But he need someone to focus his attention to forget his feelings for Leon. "N-No. It's alright." He said. "Really?" "Yeah.." "Do you know what you're saying right now? Owen, I'm admitting the fact that I'm interested in you and you said it's okay. Do you know what's that mean for me?" "It means, it's okay for me if you're interested in me. And also.. I'm allowing you to take me as yours from now on." "Haha! Are you trying to use me as your scapegoat?" Steven is laughing on the other line. "I am." Without hiding his intention, he said it. "I also want you to help me forget him. Will you help me?"
