victoria is proud of how far taemin has come. they've spoken together on occasion, not with words really, unless it's stuttering sentences in either one's language, but with their bodies. dancing is so much easier to communicate with. if she had to pick any language to speak in for the rest of her life, she'd pick dancing.

taemin is a master of this language, and he can weave his body in ways she'd never thought possible. even the simplest of steps become great literary accomplishments--he's just that wonderful.

taemin likes to watch victoria dance. he likes to dance with her, too, because he learns more from watching her than he could learn with five hundred dance practices. her body becomes like liquid, moving like water through the motions. she can bend her leg over her head and drop her head backwards until her back bends like her spine disappeared. it's insane, in a way, how much he likes her.

sometimes he think's she's the most beautiful person in the universe, even though she is much older than him. kibum says he's lovestruck, and jinki tells him to be careful that the management doesn't find out, but it's not like that. just because his legs turn to jelly so that he can't perform even the easiest of moves without feeling like a bumbling idiot.

it's not fair, he reasons, because she's always perfect where he's always awkward and it's just not right that it be this way. she's always there though, even when he makes mistakes, gently correcting him with nothing but a smile and a repeat of whatever he'd flopped up. it's a beautiful thing when he get's it right though, because she smiles and tosses her hair and pulls him into a one armed hug and their sweaty and she probably thinks he's gross, but he thinks she's gorgeous.

taemin knows he has a lot of growing up to do. he knows this, just like he knows that filming on set for replay all those years ago, when he had short hair, not long hair; when he was younger than he is now, he had blossoming love for the way victoria followed him with sincere eyes.

his favorite moments are still those when victoria teaches him dancing. just like victoria's favorite moments are when they go through a three hour practice together without speaking one word aloud. it's beautiful and rare, and so fluent that she doesn't have to feel so dumb.

when they're done and their hair is wet from the shower, victoria will pull him into a hug, her hair still up behind her head, wearing sweatpants and a hooded sweater. it's the most comfortable thing in the world for taemin, even though he's still all lanky legs and awkward limbs.

she'll pull him along until they come to some hole-in-the-wall restaurant in the middle of the city, which just so happens to have taemin's favorite dish done perfectly, like his mom makes. she'll feed him from her own chopsticks with a smile that says that she's just doting on her adorable dongsaeng and he deflates a little, because he knows that's all he'll ever be.

but still, he's the only one who can communicate with her fluently, the only one that knows how to tell she's in a bad mood, or when she needs a hug, or when she's happy. he takes pride in this fact, that she chooses him sometimes, especially when dance is involved.

sometimes taemin has to speak though, sometimes, while he's laying on the floor of the practice room on his back with no air in his lungs and sweat making his hair stick against his face, he'll glance over at victoria, clad in her tank top and shorts and whisper, "noona is so pretty."
