Chapter 10

"No way!?"

"You don't believe me? Here." Ten says before grabbing a photo book from his shelf and opening it up to a page that makes Doyoung laugh even harder.

It was a picture of fourteen year old Ten with an awkward expression on his face with a rainbow cake placed in front of him. The banner behind them read "CONGRATULATIONS you're gay!" with the "you're gay" clearly being written on by his parents. They both have a good laugh about it before Ten puts the book away and finishes up Doyoung's makeup.

"Okay i'm done what do you think?" Ten asks as Doyoung looks at himself in the mirror. His mouth drops open. wow, Ten is a miracle worker.

"Wow. I don't even look the same." Doyoung says as he takes off the headband and touches his face lightly.

"What are you talking about? You look exactly the same! I barely put anything on you." Ten laughs as he shows him the four products he had used to do his makeup.

"Just a smidge of makeup to make your pretty features pop. That's the Ten Lee effect." Ten says with a wink as Doyoung rolls his eyes with a small smile.

"I have a straightener if you need it." Ten says as he opens a draw under his vanity and hands it to Doyoung. The younger takes it with a small nod before plugging it in the wall and waits for it to heat up as he watches Ten do his own makeup.

"What about you? Are you out to your parents yet?" Ten asks and Doyoung immediately shakes his head no.

"No way! I'd probably get kicked out if they knew. Very religious." Doyoung says with a light chuckle.

"But even if they weren't, or if I wasn't gay they would probably still be against me dating. 'school is your number one priority.'" Doyoung mimics as Ten hums.

"Well if you ever need a place to crash." Ten starts as he pats his bed. "You can come stay here." He says playfully, a hint of seriousness hidden behind his words.

"Go change while you wait for the straightener to heat up. The bathroom is down the hall, first door to the right." Ten says and Doyoung nods before grabbing his back pack and heading to the bathroom. He changes and stares at himself in the mirror. The reality of the whole situation starting to come down on him.

"Ten I don't think I can do this..." Doyoung says as he walks back to the older's room.

"What are you talking about? You look great! All you need is a little confidence." Ten says as he grabs his outfit from the closet.

"I'm gonna go change i'll be back." Ten says before walking out of his room. Doyoung looks at himself in the mirror and sighs as he stands up. He stares at himself in the mirror. Inspecting every last inch of himself.

"I kind of feel like an idol in the outfit." He thinks to himself as he giggles at the thought of it. Being an idol. He could only dream of that. He stares in the mirror for a second before dancing to the new choreo he had just learned.

"You got me like cray-cray-crazy in love~" He sings softly as he gets more confident in his movements.

"I'm gettin' loco-loco-co~" He sings but jumps when he hears clapping. He turns to the door way and to see Ten leaning against his door frame with a big smile on his face.

"That's one way to gain some confidence." Ten says with a giggle as Doyoung's face burns red.

"Ohh don't be embarrassed. We all do it." Ten says before doing a small part of the choreo as well.

"I fucking love itzy." Ten says and they both start to laugh.

"Holy shit! It's already 12:40 we gotta go." Ten says as he checks the time and the two hurry to get their hair done before running out of the house, their laughs echoing through the neighborhood.
