The hilarious part?

So did Neldor… And he was the only guy.

Nice.

He didn’t give a single shit, smirking as people clearly gave him looks. We simply smiled after we were done. Like who the fuck cared?

We went to move off the dance floor when the song stopped, but we knew the next song cueing up as well, so then we just stayed and danced. During that song, I saw how the competition part would work. A judge walked over to someone and went to pull off the number around her neck.

She realized what was going on and went to duck him like a bitch instead of just admitting she’d lost with some grace. She didn’t make it two steps before another judge snagged it and waved for security while holding onto her. She started to throw a fit, and I was there before I even realized what I was doing.

I held onto her for security so she couldn’t make it like the guy had done something wrong. She clearly didn’t understand me when I told her to stop behaving badly, but she probably knew I was telling her to stop making women look bad.

We all understood when we were being yelled at no matter the language.

I nodded to the judge who dipped his head to me when some female security came to get rid of the woman and went back to my place by Neldor. He simply shook his head at me and kept dancing.

Yeah, yeah, it was ingrained in us to get involved.

Whatever.

Most people accepted it with grace when they were knocked out or were embarrassed that they were eliminated and wanted to leave. That hurt my heart because they should be proud they had the guts to come out, not be ashamed they didn’t win.

Still, good on them for being graceful in defeat.

But the judges and coordinators had their act together. I saw people being tossed and others joining left and right. It was a bit dizzying if I was honest.

The songs switched up to BTS, and it was a good mix of men and women dancing. I stopped paying attention to the workings of the competition then and just got lost in the music and dancing. There was a solo artist song of one of the BTS guys, so I switched to dance the role of backup dancer with Neldor when he did the main dance.

I forgot which guy of BTS, but I loved the song and the dance was great. I felt a lot of attention on us as we did that, but really I just wanted the fun.

We didn’t know the next couple of songs, so we took a break and Shael handed us water bottles. I was about to ask how she wasn’t getting flak for being there, but I realized she was glamoured as Korean so she looked like she fit in and probablysome magic so people didn’t want to talk to her. Maybe ignore her?

Whatever. I was too focused on the fun.

I smiled at Neldor when “Butter” loaded and we headed back out to dance. We went for another twenty minutes before there was an announcement—that we didn’t understand—and everyone cleared off the dance floor. A clock went up with a fifteen-minute timer on all the screens, so that was probably for a break.

That was smart after forty-five minutes.

“Next time you get grounded if you bring us to fun without food,” I told him, laughing when he rolled his eyes. I had already chugged another water and glanced around to try and find where the music was playing from, but it wasn’t like a DJ setup. Probably from a sound booth.

So I made my own fun during the break. I went back out to the dance floor and loaded Paula Abdul’s “Cold Hearted” on my phone, which he knew, and we did the couples dance together. We did “Smooth Criminal” next and eight guys joined us who were all smiles and having fun as well.

Then I put on “Oops!...I Did It Again” and ten women came out to join me while the guys stepped aside. Unfortunately, one tried to trip me, so she wasn’t there for fun but taking the opportunity to take out the competition.

Whatever, all I did was show that I could do a backflip easily. I smirked at her when I landed and went back to get more water before the contest started again. Shael also snuck us some bars the hobgoblins always made for us, and that made me smile even brighter as we danced some more.

I noticed there were a lot more people up in the crowd seating instead of around the dance floor at the next break. There were still some people checking in, but it seemed at theend of the line. Wow, this was really crazy. People probably came from all over Korea to participate in this.

I was really glad that Neldor dragged my ass out of bed at four in the morning for this. Even if I saw a few of the commanders or captains taking video of us that they probably were going to be giving to the media. Our media at least.

I played “Run the World (Girls)” first and then “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).” Neldor wasn’t really impressed so much as turned on.

Brat.

Still… He had made a big deal about how great the sex was between us and a few repeats after, so I wasn’t against the idea of having that kind of fun after we were done here. Probably in the shower because I was dripping with sweat.

I laughed when a few guys danced with me for the Beyonce songs, but I did a double take when I locked gazes with one of them. I was 100% sure he was an actual K-pop idol. He winked at me and held his finger to his lips.
