(Dino x Reader)

Genre: Fluff, Romance, Supportive Relationship

You always knew your boyfriend was an incredible dancer, but watching him in his element—creating, teaching, and performing—was an entirely different experience. It was mesmerizing, the way he moved so effortlessly, his body speaking a language only he truly understood.

When Dino invited you to watch him record his latest Dino Dancology episode, featuring Seungkwan and his self-choreographed piece to Cheating on You, you had no idea you’d be witnessing something so breathtaking.

Now, sitting in the corner of the practice room, you watched as the music filled the space, your boyfriend’s body responding to every beat with sharp yet fluid movements. There was a rawness in the way he danced—intense, expressive, every step carrying emotion.

Beside him, Seungkwan was doing his best to keep up. He was good—really good—but you could tell he was still working through some of the nuances.

“Hyung, feel the music,” Dino instructed, running a hand through his slightly damp hair. “It’s not just about the steps—it’s about the emotion behind them.”

Seungkwan huffed, hands on his knees. “It’s easy for you to say. You make this look effortless.” He wiped his forehead, turning to you with a dramatic sigh. “How do you survive dating this dance prodigy? I feel like I’m suffering here.”

You laughed, glancing at Dino, who grinned at the compliment. “I just sit back and admire the view,” you teased, sending a playful wink in your boyfriend’s direction.

Dino chuckled, shaking his head before clapping his hands together. “Alright, one more time from the top!”

As the music played again, your eyes were glued to him. His focus was razor-sharp, his movements precise yet overflowing with emotion. You swore you could see the passion in his every motion, the way he lost himself in the rhythm. It was like watching someone fall in love over and over again—except, instead of a person, he was falling for the music.

By the time the final take wrapped up, Seungkwan dramatically collapsed onto the floor. “I’m dead,” he groaned. “I hope people appreciate this because I might not survive another recording.”

Dino laughed, pulling him up. “You did great, hyung.”

Then, he turned to you, wiping sweat from his forehead. “Jagi, you were really quiet. What did you think?”

You got up, walking toward him with a slow smirk. “Oh, I was just absorbing everything. You know, analyzing.” You tapped your chin. “The technique, the footwork, the—” you paused for dramatic effect, “—intensity in your expressions.”

Dino narrowed his eyes. “You’re teasing me.”

You grinned. “Maybe a little. But really, babe, you were amazing.”

His ears turned pink at the praise. “You think so?”

“I know so,” you corrected, stepping closer. “You’re insane when you dance, in the best way. It’s like you were born for this.”

He ducked his head shyly, rubbing the back of his neck. “Hearing that from you means a lot.”

Before you could respond, Seungkwan groaned loudly, waving his hand as he headed for the door. “Okay, I’m leaving before I drown in this disgusting amount of love.”

You and Dino laughed as he disappeared. Then, turning back to each other, your boyfriend reached for your hands. “Thanks for coming today. It made me happy knowing you were here.”

You squeezed his fingers. “I’ll always be here, love. In every move you make, I see you—your heart, your passion, you.”

Dino smiled, pulling you into a quick hug before whispering, “Then I’ll keep dancing, just for you.”

Author's Note:

Exactly on this very day, March 07, 2022, this banger was released, and even now, three years later, Dino’s Danceology featuring Seungkwan still lives rent-free in my head. Can you believe it’s been three years since they posted it?
