Warnings: Cursing

A/N: I should be finishing my final papers but instead I did this... send help. 

Everyone sat in the auditorium, eagerly waiting for the presenter to take the stage. Jihun was known for the most exciting speeches. This year was no different. They knew he wasn’t going to fail them this time. Soon the room lights as dimmed down as the stage lights were all focused on him. His stage presence was so... dominating. It didn’t need to beg for attention, instead is naturally grabbed the eyes of everyone. 

That’s all Jihun needed. He walked down to the middle of the stage and looked behind to make sure his powerpoint wasn’t on yet. He believed in the element of surprise was more important.  

Here goes nothing, he thought.  

“Love. It makes people happy and crazy. It has the birds singing and the people grasping for it at every moment. However, is it really a magical moment that happens like the movies?” He paused, adding effect. “No, it’s fucking not.”

Everyone jumped at his accusation. 

Jihun smiled, he hoped for that very reaction. He continued, “Well you all know that the process of falling in love is simple. It’s the series of chemicals that have us feeling euphoric and... well other things. What I’m here to talk about in this series is about an experiment that I conducted last year. With the social experiment, I used thousands of volunteers but I’m going to only explain 1 case tonight. It’s the very special case of a close somebody.”

-1 year ago-

The clock was ticking. It was the only thing making noise in the otherwise silent room. Jihun was watching how you reacted to the silent, since it scared most future patients away. This experiment needed the best of the best, Jihun thought. 

However, you were still comfortable as ever. 

If anything, it worried him on how unfazed you were acting. 

“So, when are you going to interview for this?” You asked, suppressing all the anxiousness that was building up inside. The only thing that kept you from completely breaking down was the only thing that college students are thinking of...

Money. 

This whole thing was paying you enough to stay financially stable until the next experiment science has to offer. You needed it since recently your roommate had hit you with the moving out card, leaving you with not enough time to find a new roommate and left you instead with a new found debt. It was a terrible move from their part, but luckily you saw the flyer for this project and decided that you were healthy, young, and ready for anything crazy. 

Jihun shifted in his seat and nodded, beginning the interview. He watched as you answered everything quickly, creating a rhythm in how everything was going. He was interest on how quickly you took control of everything. Your answers were unpredictable and show

Surprisingly, he liked it.

So much that decided to do something crazy.

“Well, Miss (y/n), you seem to be a perfect candidate for our project. I will email you later tonight and explain what you will be doing as a patient.” The both of you stood up and Jihun led you over to the exit of the office. He explained that you wouldn’t end up with any psychological problem and that it’s a simple process. Before he let you completely leave, he pulled out his hand. You were a bit taken aback from this but shook his hand. You looked at him and that’s when it happened. 

The sparks. 

You suppressed the feeling and continued to act unfazed. All you could think was about how you are connecting with the experimenter and how wrong this was. You searched for any reaction from his part, but he remained just as calm. 

Before the any of you realized, you both were still holding each others hand. You quickly let go and apologized to Jihun, who in turn was smiling. It was going according to plan, he thought. 

He watched as you walked out of the building, almost too fast. 

-Present time-

“See, I introduced the patient with their new found partner. They both had completely opposite type personalities in every way. From the MBTI to their intelligences. The question was, how was science going to prove that only a few steps need to be followed to trigger the chemical change to have them believe their falling in love?” Jihun stated. He smiled, glancing at everyone and watched as his eyes fell on you. He visually tensed up, choking a bit on the suffocating hair. 

He tried to pull himself back together, he was still in front of an audience. 

“It’s a simple process really, when you first meet someone. You want hold their hand longer than expected and maintain eye contact. While that seems simple, there’s a specific time your suppose to maintain it for before it completely makes the situation awkward. Can anyone guess-”

“3 seconds.” Your voice announced. All eyes soon fell on you and you watched as Jihun struggled to maintain his cool and collected persona. It was your time for a rebuttal. “3 seconds is how long your suppose to maintain in physical and eye contact.” 

“Yes that’s correct, thank you miss...”

“(y/n).” You replied, but quietly added, “but you already knew that.” 

“Good, so in doing that. He was asked to add moments between him and the patient, creating a longer time. With this, he establish a relationship and created a process where the further increase each moment longer and longer. In turn, the patient believed that they were falling deep in love.”

-7 months ago-

You were sitting across Jihun. 

He decided to meet up at a nearby coffee shop since he was a master student at your university. It was quite odd, because he kept finding time to meet up with you. He asked about how you were and seemed to be trying to get to know you.

It felt oddly nice.

He was funny and seemed awkward at first, but after some time with you, the chemistry from before began to happen. Jihun was relieved for two reasons. One, because he needed to have this experiment work. Two, because he wanted to know you. 

He just couldn’t believe that you wanted to meet him again after the first time. One coffee date turned into 10 and soon found yourself meeting with him more often than you thought. 

Although, you still wondered when the experiment would start. 

He talked about things that were going on, and kept you interested in the conversation. It felt like you were a couple, but you weren’t complaining about it. You like spending time with him, because he would hold your hand constantly and refuse to let it go. It was adorable really because he was surprisingly touchy. 

He said he loved knowing you were there. 

The dates became more intimate, and that’s when he finally gathered up the courage to kiss you. 

It was after one of your dinner dates. Everything seemed to be going well and you were getting a little impatient for him to finally kiss. Jihun decided to drop you off at your front door. He noticed how often you were not so subtly glancing down at his lips. It made him smile, because of how impatient you were getting. That’s when he decided to finally break wall he had built and kissed you. 

It felt so... beautiful. It wasn’t a magical moment nor something like the daydreams of high schoolers, but it felt like it was moment you wouldn’t forget. 

The indimating man was so sweet and kind to you. There wasn’t a moment that you didn’t love being with him. Sure, he was very work-oriented and more serious but you knew that he had his ways of showing affection. Whether it be working in the same room with you or reading to you the stuff he was working on and asking your opinion. 

You loved him for it.

His small little smiles when you were teasing him about being serious were so gorgeous. He also loved it when you ran your fingers through his hair after a long day, telling him that he worked hard and that he did a good job. 

He was so soft sometimes, but it was something only you knew.  it was a secret you kept to yourself. 

A memorable moment was a small one. It was a time where Jihun had come from work a decided to visit you at night. A patient was causing him a hard time and all he wanted to do was get away from them. He seemed frustrated and stress, so you helped him destress by forcing him to watch an emotional movie with you. At first, he didn’t want to, but by the end the both you were holding each other and complaining about all the shit of life. 

It was just your way of making him feel comfortable. 

-Present time-

Jihun glanced at the slide that was on the screen, feeling his heart break a bit as he felt the anger radiating from you. What if he hadn’t lied? What if he had stopped the project and allowed himself to feel what he felt. Would it be worth it? Would you still feel the hurt of the experiment?

He wished he could back.

He shook himself out of his thoughts, “It wasn’t until the end that the actor had to reveal the truth, and in it we had them take a questionnaire, revealing their feelings and how they believed they fell in love.”

A hand soon was raised and both you and Jihun were surprised. It was a classmate of your. You recognized her from some of your classes as the one always asking some of the craziest questions. For whatever reason, you were glad she was going to ask a question. 

“What happened after? I mean feeling were clearly involve. If the patient fell in love and it seemed that method worked. That must have meant that the actor also fell in love,” she stated. 

Jihun tensed up at the unexpected question. Why hadn’t he thought of an ending to the story? Given that students want closure, he forgot. 

“Uh... well... to be honest that’s a part of the story that I don’t have. When the experiment ended, they had a choice to make things work out. Love may not be a magical moment like the movies, but it does give us the choice to make it feel magical. Ever patient that was a part of the experiment realized that, and learned that it’s a choice and not a feeling. Feeling can come and go but choosing to love some past those feelings is real love.”

You watched as his eyes fell on you, “I figured that feeling out when I met that certain someone as well. A very close person, whom I love dearly despite everything.” He smiled. His eyes fell back on the audience. They searched around for you, but you stayed hidden away. How would they react if they knew that a student stole the heart of their speaker? 

-3 months ago-

Jihun was a serious man, and had a cold side that hurt anyone who felt it, including you. 

At first, Jihun was saying that he was getting busy with work and couldn’t come around more often. Then there were other excuses that followed until the days where he hadn’t answered any text or call. 

You didn’t know what you did wrong. Was it something you said or something you did? There wasn’t a moment where you saw him get upset.

It wasn’t until the night he randomly showed up that you finally got a hint of what was going on. At first, you thought it was break-up, but the sad look in his eyes said something else. 

The moment Jihun saw you, he wanted to grab you and hug you so tightly as if the world was going to end. This wasn’t something that he wanted to end. Your love was something that he felt was worth it all. However, he knew how hurt you were going to be, so why not avoid the whole talk and cut off ties? 

He walked in and sat you down like the first time you met. A silence had fell in the room again, but this time it felt too heavy. There wasn’t any clock that sang to the room, nor any mystery to each other. 

It was a painful moment instead of a new beginning. 

Jihun had pulled out some paperwork for you and explained that the experiment time was over and that you as the patient had to have a final interview to finish off the final paperwork. 

That’s when a harsh reality had set in. Jihun had used you and the whole relationship for the experiment. It made you wonder if anything he felt was real, or was he just that harsh of a person?

Jihun had been waiting for the right time to mention the experiment. How the hell does one do this? It like the cliche moment you see in love stories, but this was real life. His heart was a stake, because you had become something bigger than a project. 

He sighed, “I’m sorry... I need you to keep yourself together as I conduct the final interview. Any final comments after can be said after we finish.”

As much as you wanted to argue, you agreed to the terms and held yourself together throughout the interview. He had asked detailed questions about how you felt and when you believed you fell in love with him. It felt to painful to even remember those moments. To think how naive you were to the truth. 

Jihun turned off the recording and watched as you collapsed into tears. He tried to comfort you and wanted to tell you the truth but you pushed him away. “Go away, get out! I don’t want to see you anymore!” You lied. You didn’t want him gone, nor did you really hate him. 

You wondered how hard it must have been for him to hold this secret for so long. How hurt he must been feeling at the moment. All your thoughts were wondering about him. Even though he hurt you, you still care about him. You didn’t stop loving him for something like this. 

You wished he knew how much you wanted him to stay. 

However, Jihun never did learn that sometimes you meant the opposite sometimes. You watched as Jihun gathered his things and walked out of the room for what felt like the last time. 

-Present time-

All the students applauded Jihun for his presentation and began to make their way out of the auditorium. You sat there, waiting for Jihun to notice you one last time. You swore to yourself that this was going to be the last time before you completely let go of him. 

That’s what you wanted to believe. 

Jihun finished gathering his things and glanced around the room one last time when his eyes fell on you. Instead of a glare or scowl, you smiled. His heart skipped a beat and he forced himself to face back down. He didn’t want you to see his face becoming flushed. 

You walked down to the stage and prepared yourself what you thought was the last time for you and Jihun. You didn’t want it to be. Instead, you wanted to be doting on Jihun for giving a beautiful presentation and laugh with him about his beginning. 

“You did really good up there.” You announced. He glanced back up and felt himself become so hopeful. You hadn’t changed much, but you were still so beautiful in his eyes. 

“Thank you, I was really excited to talk about it... i guess.” He hated the small talk. He wanted to know how you were doing and so much more, but he was stuck in this hell because of the decisions he made. 

He wondered if you still hated him for his actions. 

The both of you were stuck standing awkwardly on stage, trying to find something to talk about. However, all you could think of was of him admitting that he still loved you. “You... you uh mentioned earlier something about-”

He blushed, “ah that! Right, I did mention that in front of hundreds of people.” 

You smiled. Jihun was never good about talking about his feeling. You knew that, and also knew that sometimes you were the one who was having to push it out of him. 

“Jihun... I came up here thinking this was going to be my last time seeing you but you are someone I wanna keep seeing everyday again.” You watched as the shy boy looked over to you with this new found spark. “I know we had this project hurt us, but I want to try again. A new beginning really.”

“As long as I get to prove that I still love you.” He muttered. He reached for you hand and felt your warm hand intertwine with his. It felt so right to him. Maybe Jihun didn’t get the tight hug and passionate kiss like he wanted, but he just glad that he was getting another chance with you.

Jeonghan, Joshua & Woozi React To: You being on your period

Jeonghan - probably doesn't really care tbh - well he does care, but he's not like "omg my poor baby uwu" - he silently cheers you on because he knows it's not a huge deal and you've had to go through it for years - if your cramps are really painful he'll get you tea and painkillers tho - uses it as an excuse to lay in bed with you all day - plays with your hair and hums songs into your ear until you fall asleep - or he does

Joshua - he's a sweetie pieeeee - buys you loads of your favourite candies and snacks because he knows it makes you feel better - rubs your tummy 24/7 and builds a fort in the front room where he can watch all your favourite movies with you - texts u in the middle of practice to ask how you are and if he can get you anything - knows exactly how to distract you and make you laugh with his awful jokes

Jihoon/// with a lot of help from @skyyzi - what is a p e r i o d ???? - he's a bit clueless cos he's never had to deal with it as he doesn't have any sisters or whatever sooo - just wants to make it better but he doesn't know how - so he googles it and you end up with 20 tubs of ice cream and a night full of watching the notebook - one time you asked him to pick you up pads on the way back home and he straight up turned into a strawberry (he still did it for you... bless) - if you're really in pain, or just feeling a bit shitty and you ask him for a cuddle tho - he's like - that I can do - and he'll spend the rest of the day giving you special woozi hugs and massages

Barista!Jihun as your Boyfriend

Request: @basketcase789 asked: Hi again ^_^ can I have woozi + barista for the boyfriend imagine?

And my answer is, of course you can have a precious little Barista imagine!

Let’s try this...Jihun is the barista...but he’s also the owner of the shop!!

Made his three other friends, Seungcheol, Joshua, and Jeonghan work there.

Basically trained them for their spots...even though they’re older than him xD

The coffee shop is quite interesting

Feels more like a 90′s club or something with all the bright colors and music playing. 

Neon lights and a pool table...okay maybe it looks more like a bar instead BUT IT’S A COFFEE SHOP OKAY??

Let’s call it The Jihun Style

Everybody loves the places and the college that’s nearby helps fund it too since half of the campus goes to the place now and practically claimed it as it’s #1 hangout spot.

It’s still a bit laid back though because the music...that Jihun composed himself...gives off the calm feel.

Everything just fits well together.

Soooo...you’re a student that’s at the campus nearby

You practically live and breathe studying and getting good grades

So...you never knew about the shop until your friend wanted you to go just once...

And now...that’s all your friend has been bugging you about

But eventually..after like...half a month goes by you finally finished an important exam that was hounding you and had free time to comply to your friend’s wishes.

And sure enough, the shop was like a ten (10) minute walk from your dorm.

You walked in and like holy shit! This place is lit.

You’re looking around with a big smile on your face and the aroma of different blends of coffee filling the air

You find a table that’s directly across the display case with the register

And all of a sudden a cute guy with pinkish hair is at your table and hands you both the menu...BUT SURPRISE!!!

“Oh Hey there Y/n.” 

“Hi there Joshua. Can I get the Barista Special this time?”

Your friend is staring at you and Joshua catches on “Y/n comes in here a lot when they don’t have exams to worry about and needs a stress reliever.”

You never really told any body that you go there but they never really asked so like Meh.

You told your friend about the Barista Special that you like to get because it’s the Barista’s #1 Cup for the day and is THE BEST

Of course Jihun keeps glancing over at you like he always did whenever you were there. 

Goes to say that he was really worried that you would be freaking out about your exam and all that but was relieved when you walked in today. 

Makes your cup extra special by doing a treble clef art in the foam

He ALWAYS offers to deliver your cup

And boy it’s always awkward when he makes it to your table

And your friend is looking between both your redden faces and nervous smiles

“Sooo...I see you two are quite close”

And you tense up and look at your friend in horror along with a death glare but your face get’s redder when you hear Jihun’s giggle and your heart exploded 

Jihun looks at you and you’re staring at him and he get’s a bit nervous until Joshua came over to “help” out

“Hey Jihun. Maybe you should take your break and hang with Y/n! GREAT! Have Fun!”

Didn’t give Jihun time to object at all.

Awkwardly sitting down at your table and your friend is like...well, Imma sit at the bar and drink my coffee while you two get to know each other more!”

“I hate you (uhhh...let’s call your friend Jessie)

Surprisingly...after like a minute or two of awkward silence Jihun broke the silence with the “How did exams go?”Questions and your conversations went sailing through and was amazing

Your friend practically drags you to The Jihun Style almost twice every week and you and Jihun is always talking now

And your crush with each other get’s stronger and all the cute little stuff

Your friend and Joshua and Jeonghan and Seungcheol creates a plan!

But fails miserably after pretending to be each other on the phone and trying to get you both to meet up...

You and Jihun seen the trick in movies and from reading way too many times.

But it surprisingly works when you barged into the shop without knowing Jihun is behind the giant coffee maker and went up to your friend

“Why would you text Jihun about meeting with him? That’s so cliched! And don’t try and do that with my feelings for him. I like him too much to meet with him this soon. I don’t think I could handle going on a date with him being all sexy and cute and gentlemanly.

Jessie and Jeonghan, Joshua, and Seungcheol are staring at you like you’re a ghost or something.

And then you tense up when you hear...”I like you too. So don’t worry. Nothing is different. But I do want to take you out on a date. Since you called me sexy...but I do not accept the cute part Y/n.”

And you’re looking over the counter where Jihun is smirking at you cause like...damn it...I just confessed without knowing he was there.

Jessie and the other three are surprised that their failed planned worked somehow and all high five each other because now you and Jihun are standing before each other with cute smiles on your faces and holding hands.

Super cute...right???

But now...every time you go see your boyfriend in his shop “Hello there my cute little Hunnie.”

“Y/N! I’m not cute! Can’t you call me sexy like you did when you confessed to me that day?”

“But you look sexy when you get frustrated.”

Hates that you call him cute but now that he knows your motive...his head swells with ego and smirks at his friends as they still can’t get a partner yet xD

Thanks for requesting

[rexcat]

The full version of my banner art, I finally decide to post it :D The theme is “Duo Queue” from Legends of Runeterra- I submitted this to a fanart thingy so it actually motivated me to “finish” a piece, which happens extremely rarely (although there are rough bits all over the place I had to live with...) First time using Krita for digital art since I don’t have photoshop anymore.

Although Graves is not in LoR yet, I can't imagine TF playing with anyone else, even if he might not have let Graves in on his strategy for this game.. He’s got it alll under control ;] I really hope Graves gets added to LoR- I can almost hear his voice lines, bickering at an enemy or ally TF on the board.

Something I would like to improve is working on settings/background and lighting, but there are little details throughout inspired from the character’s splash arts. I really like the Bilgewater followers in TF’s set- They are so rich in personality. My favorite is Slotbot- I imagine that he is originally from Piltover and somehow made his way to Bilgewater and is *thriving*, absolutely living for the chaos and the thrill of taking people’s coins for a spin >:] The way hits on the other robotic followers is also peak class. I doodled the verrry rough beginnings of an OC next to Slotbot, likely a Vastaya who is working as the ‘muscle’ in their racket. I might revisit.

bias list [28.3]

those in (brackets) are the ones that wreck/get to me a lot but that i dont think ill bias anytime soon

those in CAPITALS are the ones that murder/attack me

completely soft, you can call them hot but dont give me any sexy thoughts with them, 9/10 times will melt into a puddle of softness if i see them

mostly soft, youd really have to make me imagine things if you want me to get turned on by them

basically neutral, either not feeling particularly strong for them either way or it constantly chances so much that its hard to really say which one it is

mostly hard, will turn me on if you send them but might not happen immediately, probably depends on if you send a cute or hot photo

hard, ill choke if you send them, definitely turn me on (might still have soft thoughts about every once in a while but you get the point)

help, they make my heart jump out of my chest and turn me into a giggly mess but at the same time theyre sO FUCKING HOT

[name] (!): no softness pls, i want to see them as only hard doms that could make me submit to them at will

chapter 18: my best friend.

“Yn, you have a call on line one!”

Your receptionist popped her head in your office door and nodded towards your phone. You were so wrapped up with the document on your screen you didn’t even notice that she forwarded the call through, the red light blinking needingly at you.

“Thank you” you smiled at her.

“Lee-Chan Incorporated, this is yn speaking” you smiled into the phone.

You waited for the person on the other line to speak, but you couldn’t hear anything, just some commotion in the background.

“Hello?” you asked again sweetly.

“Uh, hello? Yn?”

Korean. You haven’t heard the Korean dialect used to fluently in almost a year.

“Yes, may I ask who is speaking?” you responded in the same dialect.

“It’s Jin… Seokjin? You don’t recognize me?” he stammered nervously.

“Jin? Wow… I mean, how are you? Is everything okay?”

You were in complete shock. It had been a year since you had talked to the boys. You figured they would never forgive you for leaving them the way you had, but to say you didn’t check the internet for the names everyday would be a lie. Even absent, they were still a huge part of your life.

You thought about texting them often, but you figured if they wanted to talk to you they would reach out. And they hadn’t.

“Everything’s okay. I’m good… really good. But listen, I don’t have long to talk, but we’re actually in Japan right now for a few days. Do you want to meet up?”

“Of course! When were you thinking?” you asked, a little taken aback.

“Is tonight okay? I know it’s short notice, but we didn’t-”

“Jin!” you interrupted, “tonight is fine.”

“Oh yeah, okay. I mean, great! We’re staying at the Mandarin Oriental. Can you meet us here around 7?”

“Sure… Hey, Jin?” you asked, hesitation apparent in your voice.

“Yeah?”

“I’ve missed you guys” you whispered.

“Yeah, yn. Us, too.”

And just like that the line went dead. You stood up, nervously pacing your office. You didn’t even notice when the door opened and Jihun had stepped in.

“Babe?” he asked.

You jumped at the sound of his voice.

“Shit, Jihun! Try knocking next time would you?” you snapped.

“Whoa, yn. What’s going on?” he asked, coming to you and taking you into his arms to calm you down.

“They called” you whispered, taking a step back. You sat on the top of your desk and started fidgeting with your fingers, avoiding Jihun’s stare.

“Who called?” he asked.

“Kim Seokjin. You know, my friends from back in Korea that haven’t talked to me in a year.” You hated how bitter your tone sounded.

“What did they want?” Jihun’s shoulders stood wider, defense taking place of his normal relaxed nature.

“They’re in town and want me to come meet them tonight.”

“And you’re going, aren’t you?” he replied through clenched teeth.

“You don’t think I should, should you?”

“I’m going to support whatever decision you make, but they really hurt you, yn. You cried for two months, waiting by the phone for them to contact you and it never came.” Jihun sighed, taking a few steps away from you, his hand running through his hair

“I hurt them, too, Jihun. I should have never left like that.”

“You did what you thought was best at the time. They should have understood that.”

“Not everybody is you, Jihun” you murmured.

Jihun’s head snapped towards you, “and what the hell is that supposed to mean?”

“Nothing…” you sighed. “I don’t want to fight about this, okay? I’m already freaking out about seeing them again, but I am going to.”

“When are you leaving?”

“In about an hour if you don’t mind me leaving early…” you hesitated.

Jihun took a deep breath in, repeating his nervous habit of pushing his hair back from his forehead. “That’s fine, but if you need me you call me immediately, okay?”

“Thank you for always protecting me, but I think I’ll be okay tonight.”

“Just promise me” he whispered, walking slowly toward you and pulling you close, pressing his forehead onto yours.

“Okay, baby. I promise.” You stood on the tip of your toes so you could wrap your arms around his neck. Arching your back, you smiled up at him, “You know I love you, right?”

“I know. I love you more, baby girl.” He bent his head down, his lips meeting the soft spot on top of your head where your hair meets the skin.

“I need to finish up this report before I leave. I’ll see you later at home, alright?”

All Jihun could do was nod before leaving your office.

An hour later, you finished typing your last report of the day before sending it off to Mr. Chan, the boss of Japan’s branch. You opened your phone and sent a quick text to Jihun before heading out to meet the seven strangers who you used to know better than your own self. You took deep breaths, trying to steady your increasingly nervous shaking with the incline of each floor the elevator took.

You looked at yourself in the mirror. Would they even recognize you, you thought to yourself. You had dyed your hair a lighter brown color and had recently fell in love with the gym. Your muscles are now more defined, and it made you look thicker in appearance. Did they call you to let you know they hated you in person? You shook your head, hoping the negative thoughts would flow with it.

Ding. You finally reached the top floor of the hotel. It’s now or never your brain was whispering to you.

You took a step out and the security guards at the front of the door nodded at you. These men were tougher looking than their old security guards. You gulped a little in fear, but one of them cracked a small smile as you approached. They must have been expecting you. Of course they were expecting you.

You quickly knocked on the door, hoping it was loud enough so you wouldn’t have to awkwardly stand in silence a moment longer.

The door began to creak open a few seconds later.

Your heart skipped a beat seeing Jin again for the first time in a year. He looked different, older… more mature.

“Well look what the cat drug in” he smiled at you, and you felt yourself instantly relax. He’s smiling.

“I could say the same for yourself, barging in my territory without so much as a warning.” Jin opened the door wider, pulling you into his arms. His wide shoulders instantly collapsed around your frame, squeezing you tightly. You took in his scent and welcomed the crushing embrace, happiness and sadness alike overflowing your emotions. He still smelled the same. He was still the same.

“Come on, everyone’s in the kitchen. I just finished cooking dinner.”

“Oh my God, please tell me it’s Korean. I haven’t eaten a proper Korean meal in forever.”

“Of course it is. Who the hell do you think I am?” he winked.

When you walked in the kitchen, everybody stopped and turned towards you. You were taking them all in the same way they were you. They looked older, much more than just a year, more muscular and broad shouldered.

“Hey guys” you have them a small wave.

They immediately got out of their seats, coming over and hugging you, giving you their welcomes. Well, everyone but one. Jungkook was at the other end of the table, arms crossed and still staring at you, eyebrows creased together.

“Jungkook” you nodded at him, and he stiffly nodded back. You looked to Taehyung to your right and he shook his head slightly back and forth, silently telling you to let it go. Your stomach dropped, the realization that not everyone had forgiven you had sank in.

“So…” Hoseok broke the tense atmosphere, “how are things?”

“Things are good!” You responded happily, and it was the truth. You were happy. “I really like it here. It was a little rough to get used to at first, but things came together.”

“That’s good” Tae said, wrapping his hand around yours and you looked up at him, matching his smile.

“How are you guys? What are you doing in Japan?” you asked, your eyes scanning the table.

“We’re promoting our new Japanese CD” Namjoon spoke. “We’ll only be in Tokyo for a few days before heading to the next city.”

“Ahh gotcha. How is all of that going? Your band and stuff?” You asked, although you knew as much as the media allowed you to.

“It’s going great. We’ve really blown up all of a sudden, ya know, getting more international attention and all that” Yoongi said.

“That’s great! I’m really happy for you guys for reaching your dreams. I saw where you had won a billboard award not too long ago. I bet that was amazing.”

“Yeah” they all smiled at each other. “That was great” Jimin giggled.

“What else has been going on with you guys? I hate to ask, but I HAVE to know,” you laughed, “is Lucy still around?”

“Ugh” Yoongi groaned.

“You were right” Taehyung pouted. “She started posting pictures of herself with us on her social media, and you know how we and our management gets about that kind of stuff…”

“And well, let’s just say she left her internship with us when she tried to open up her own business using our image has her start-up. Can you imagine how pissed off our real make-up stylists were to see her picture with us plastered everywhere?” Namjoon laughed, shaking his head.

“Not to mention Bang PD” Jin added.

“But that was not after she kept trying to get Jimin in bed and put it on her snapchat like they were actually a thing” Hoseok laughed as Jimin’s face turned red and he threw a napkin at his head.

“Okay, okay, enough of that shit” Jimin piped. “I think she gets the idea, and I think V has exciting news he wants to share.”

“Well, I’m acting now” he beamed down at you.

“About damn time” you nudged him playfully with your elbow.

You and the boys spend the next two hours eating, drinking and catching up. You knew almost everything that had happened to them in the past 300 and something days since the last time you spoke to them. But the ominous presence of Jungkook still loomed over you. With each minute that passed you got more and more anxious, irritated almost, that he refused to talk to you.

“I really hate to kill the good mood here, but Jungkook, can we go talk? Privately?” you looked at him and he continued to glare back at you. “Please?” you begged.

“Just go, dude” Namjoon urged him. “It’ll help.”

Jungkook nodded, standing up and heading towards the hallway. You followed him as he opened the front door into the lobby.

“So, you look good” you said, when you shut the front door, isolating the two of you from the rest of the boys.

“Thanks… you do too” he finally said.

“Y/n,” he started before you could reply, “why did you do it? Why the fuck did you leave like that?” he snapped like the past year of pent up emotions finally had an opportunity to bust through the flood gate.

“Do you understand how fucking hard it was for me to keep the secret that you were moving from them? From my brothers? They all hated me when they found out I knew and didn’t tell them, that I didn’t try to stop you. They blamed me, y/n. For the longest time they couldn’t even look at me” he went on.

“Oh, Jungkook, I’m sure they didn’t hate you-”

“No” he interrupted you. “Don’t you dare even try to belittle it and what you put me through for your own conscience. They would have tried to stop you, you know. They had wanted to go to the airport, or something, but they couldn’t have. And the whole time I knew. I watched you pack. I watched you slip away from us. I watched it all happen and didn’t do a damn thing to stop it. I just let it fucking happen. I’ve been so angry at you, and sometimes I think I might even hate you.”

His words hit you like he just slapped you in the face. “Jungkook,” you took a step forward, reaching out to him, “please don’t hate me. I am so sorry I put you in that situation. That was never fair to you and I regret it so much. I know these words can’t fix that, but I need you to know I really, truly am sorry.”

“And not only did you leave that that,” he continued, as if your words didn’t register, “you never tried to contact us. Not once. You couldn’t even let me know if you had gotten settled okay. You’re one of the most selfish fucking people I’ve ever met, yn. And I know the other members may have gotten over it with time, but I haven’t. I can’t. I wake up every morning and the guilt and hate just hit me.”

“I didn’t reach out because I thought you guys hated me. And after the note I was waiting to hear from you. The first couple months I was miserable. I cried almost every day thinking that you all were finally out of my life for good.”

“So why didn’t you do anything?” he spat.

“Because after awhile, you just get used to the pain. And then when it becomes a part of you, you slowly start to forget about it” a tear escaped down your cheek.

“So you just forgot about us then? Of course you fucking did” he huffed.

“I didn’t say I forgot about you, Jungkook! I could never do that. Actually, I already knew most of everything that you guys told me today. I know everything that you have done in the past year. I watch every video, read every interview, click on every picture and tweet posted. You never once left my life.”

“I really thought I hated you, yn, but right now, looking at you, I just miss you. I never really told you how much I love you. You were like a sister to me. You were just a big a part of my life as the boys or my real family was. And then you just left. Five years, yn…” his voice trailed off as he turned his back toward you.

“I know…” you whispered, taking a few steps forward to close the distance between you two and you put your hand on his shoulder. “And I am so sorry I haven’t been there for you. But Jungkook, like I’ve said, I’ve been keeping track of you guys. Even one of your security guards will send me updates. And I’ve seen a change in you Jungkook. You’re slowly becoming this whole other person. And at first, I thought it was just you growing older and maturing, but now I’m scared it’s all this anger you have been keeping. Look at me, J” you asked him, pulling his shoulder towards you so he is now facing you.

“I’m here, and I promise I will never leave you again. People change when bad things happen, and I know I hurt you, but please, you can’t lose yourself because of this. Forgive me. Not for me, but for yourself. You have to let this go for your own health and happiness. I love you, Jeon Jungkook. So damn much, and I’m right here.”

“Yn…” Jungkook’s eyes started to water and he wrapped his arms tightly around you. “I’m so sorry.”

You squeezed him, holding on to him tight. You were scared to let him and this moment go.

“You promise you won’t leave us again? You mean that?” he whispered into your hair.

“I’m not coming back to Korea. At least, not yet, Jungkook. My life is here for now. But I promise to talk to you guys as much as you can. And I promise to come to your concerts and continue being your biggest fan, okay?”

“Okay,” he nodded, pulling you back at arm's length. “Thank you, yn.”

“For what?” you asked puzzled.

“For being my best friend.”

Masterlists

   You and Dongmin stood in front of the camera, microphones in hand. You waited for the cameraman’s cue, fiddling with the outline of your name that was attached to the microphone, and smiled when he held up a thumbs up. “Eunwoo,” you greeted, a wide grin playing your lips. “I heard the next group is entering deep in fans’ hearts. Is this true?” The lines you and Dongmin had practiced time after time before appeared in your mind ever so clearly, it was as if you had the script with you.

   Dongmin turned to you with a soft smile, “Yes, [S/N], it’s true.” He looked to you a moment longer before turning his head and facing the camera. “On rainy nights, fans think of them and can’t sleep.” The camera panned out, reveal the members of KNK standing next to the two MCs. As a fan of them, you had to refrain yourself from smiling too much. “Welcome, KNK!”

   The interview went by accordingly and without a hitch. The main vocalists had a chance to sing the chorus to their newest title song, Rain, whilst the entire group promoted themselves. When the cameraman told you that the camera had stopped rolling, you smiled at the five and Dongmin respectively before retreating off the set. You thanked the staff member who handed you a waterbottle, downing its contents easily.

   You heard a door open, followed by the rowdy noise of a group of men entering the studio. You quickly noticed your fellow MC, Dongmin, getting surrounded by his group members. You smiled to yourself, turning away as you got your hair fixed by another staff member. You really liked Astro, they were one of your favourite groups, if not your favourite.

   Across the room, Bin stood in awe of your presence. He had been a giant fan of your group, M.U.R.A., ever since you had your official debut three years ago. He really admired M.U.R.A. because the group had a fantastic blend of dance, vocals, and rap– not to mention the hilarious videos your co-ed group filmed. He was broken out of his reverie when he felt someone gently nudge him. When he turned his head, he was met with Dongmin grinning at him whilst laughing quietly to himself. Behind him, Minhyuk and Sanha were whispering to each other, both glancing over to Bin occasionally and laughing. “What?” he asked, cheeks flushing at getting caught staring.

   Dongmin subtly nodded his head in your direction, his grin growing as the seconds passed. “I can introduce you to them, you know.” Bin’s burning cheeks seemingly caught fire as he turned a bright firetruck red. Before he could even sputter a reply, Dongmin was calling your name. Somewhere in the studio, they could hear Seungjun and Jihun laughing loudly.

   Bin stiffened as you bounded toward them, a gentle smile gracing your features. “Hello,” you greeted the rookie group kindly. Most of them replied with an enthusiastic hello or a small smile and the bow of their head. “What’s up, Dongmin?” Bin nearly fell over. The fact that you, [Y/L/N] [Y/N], stood in front of him barely processed in his mind as he tried to conceal his growing grin.

   Dongmin slung an arm over Bin’s shoulder, much to his chagrin. “Bin, here, is a huge Royal and, if you don’t mind, he’d like a picture and an autograph.” Bin gaped like a fish, his mouth opening and closing as he struggled to piece together a coherent sentence. Meanwhile, you laughed at Bin’s flustered appearance, genuine glee filling your entire being at the thought of Bin being a part of your fandom.

   “Of course I wouldn’t mind,” you chuckled. You motioned for Bin to stand beside you. After getting a small push from Jinwoo, Bin stood at your side, looking stiff and awkward. “Relax, I don’t bite.” You sent him another smile before taking out your phone. You held it out, smiling immediately. Practically forcing himself to loosen up, Bin smiled and held up a simple peace sign.

   You still had a smile on your face as you looked at the taken photo. You turned to Bin, holding out your phone slightly. He stared at your outstretched hand in confusion, glancing over to his group members in a silent plea for help. Laughter tumbled from your lips as you stared over at the male in adoration. “I’d like to send you the photo, but in order to do that, I need your number you know.”

   Myungjun stood with Dongmin and exclaimed loudly with pride, not even trying to be subtle in the slightest. You felt your face heat up slightly, but it didn’t amount to the flushed expression Bin wore. Wordlessly, Bin took your phone and added his number to your contacts. Handing it back to you, he watched as you gave him a contact name. “There,” you piped happily, showing him his contact.

   You didn’t think it was possible, but Bin became even more shy and red the moment his eyes landed on his given name. Before either of you could utter another word, you heard your name being called by your manager. You quickly bid the boys goodbye, smiling but a moment longer at Bin, before rushing off to where your manager stood with a grin.

   “Look at Bin,” Minhyuk laughed aloud. “He’s practically a tomato!” Bin couldn’t even retaliate because he knew it was probably true. He pursed his lips in embarrassment, hiding his cheeks in his hands.

   “What’d [Y/N] use for your contact? You looked really surprised,” Sanha asked, the look on the older male piquing his curiosity. Seeing the hesitant look on his face, Sanha elbowed him gently. “Cmon, Bin, tell us!’

   There was a slight pause. “Just my name,” Bin uttered, kicking his feet slightly. Jinwoo arched a brow, unconvinced with Bin’s lackluster response. The simple look made Bin crumble. “Fine, fine! But don’t tease me, okay?” He sharply inhaled as he braced himself for the teasing laughter, “they put a heart next to my name.”

   Needless to say, the studio was filled with the screams and laughter coming from the group.

   Dongmin had a toothy grin as he stared at the camera head on. An aura of pride surrounded him– it was obvious he was quite excited for the next group you had to introduce and interview. “This group is very close to me,” he said in a joking manner. “It’s as if they’re my own members.” You rolled your eyes, as your manager had instructed you do, giving Dongmin an incredulous look.

   “Eunwoo,” you piped, trying your hardest to appear neutral when in reality all you wanted to do was curl up in a ball and cringe for years. “They are your members,” you refrained yourself from snorting at the line. Dongmin made a noise of recognition before you continued. “Recently, this group have been making fans fall hard for them,” Dongmin thanked you quietly, “with their catchy and refreshing album.”

   Dongmin took the reins, his smile never wavering as he introduced his own group. “Please welcome, Astro!” You and Dongmin clapped as the camera moved to reveal the remaining members of Astro standing together as they waved.

   You cleared your throat, “Could you tell the fans what your new album, Dream Part One, is about?”

   As Jinwoo went on to explain their new concept, with the boys occasionally making a few comments, Bin stayed quiet and merely nodded along with his leader’s words. He glanced over to you quickly, sneaking a small smile when he saw how immersed you were in the new album. When you opened your mouth to speak, he looked over at you unabashedly. “Please sing a part for us,” you requested with a small smile. Excitement bubbled inside of you. Despite having seen the boys perform the song live several times, you still couldn’t get over their honey vocals.

   Bin and Myungjun stepped ahead of the rest slightly, moving into position quickly as Bin softly sang his line. “Baby, it’s now, oh my baby. Your hidden truth, I’m curious about it.” You noticed Dongmin half-heartedly moving his hands to the choreography, but you paid no mind to it, too into the small performance.

   “Baby, at this moment, oh my baby,” Myungjun finished, shooting the camera a smile. He and Bin moved back to their original standings quickly. You clapped for them, as did Dongmin.

   “Now, fans are curious; who would you be singing Baby to?” you asked, moving to look at Dongmin as well.

   Without hesitation, the boys all spoke at the same time. “Aroha,” they chorused with a smile. You smiled slightly in adoration, making brief eye contact with Bin. You looked away, knowing if you kept staring you probably wouldn’t stop. The interview went on and laughter ensued. When it was almost time for the interview to be over, Sanha turned to you with an almost mischievous smile, the corner of his lips curling up as he glanced at Bin, who was oblivious.

   “[S/N],” he quickly said before the cameraman could stop filming. “If you don’t mind, we’re curious as to what part of Baby is your favourite. Eunwoo told us you’re a fan.” Surprised at the sudden, unscripted question you fumbled with your next words a bit. However, you knew you had to stay calm and collected as a MC, so you kept smiling.

   “I would have to say one of Moonbin’s lines, it’s after Sanha sings.” The boys simultaneously ‘oh’ed, Dongmin even swinging his arm over Bin’s shoulders. When the boys asked you to sing the line, you chuckled in amusement. You’d probably be too shy to say this on camera, much less in front of the boys themselves, but you had to admit that the boys truly did resemble hyperactive puppies (which you adored). You cleared your throat again, staring into the camera as you sang. “Who can I blame? It was me who fell for you.”

   The boys, including Dongmin, clapped for you, seemingly amazed. Bin sported a grin he didn’t have moments before, looking down shyly for but a moment before he looked up and composed himself. You laughed to yourself, shaking your head. “Anyway, Astro is performing soon, so keep watching!”

   At your cue, they started waving just like they did at the beginning of the interview. When the camera was turned off, you let your smile fall for a moment. You yawned, tired from the interviews and your own group’s schedules. “Good job today,” the members of Astro chorused. You said the same, shooting them a small smile before happily accepting the cup of juice your manager handed you.

   The boys were shooed out quickly, going off to get their makeup touched up before their stage. You were grateful that they were the last group you had to record with, because frankly you were extremely tired. You greeted staff members as you walked past them, heading to the waiting room your group shared with another – who you sure was KNK – before plopping down on a chair next to Sonha, your group’s leader.

   “Tired?” she asked, amusement obvious in her tone. You nodded, taking another sip of your juice. She stayed quiet, letting you rest your head on her shoulder as she scrolled through her phone. On the other side of you, Eunjae and Gunmin, the main dancers of M.U.R.A., talked to each other excitedly. Upon noticing your arrival, Eunjae looked to you with a curious expression.

   “How was MCing with Eunwoo? And interviewing Astro?” He asked, eyes sparkling with adoration. “Gosh, you’re so lucky! I wish I could interview Astro,” he pouted, making you laugh. Eunjae was easily your group’s cutest member, which has led to many funny moments both onscreen and off.

   “They’re all really nice,” you mumbled tiredly, “I’ll introduce you to them if I can.”

   Eunjae grinned at you, exclaiming his thanks before turning to fanboy with Gunmin, though it was sort of one-sided. Before anyone else could say more, Astro appeared on the television in front of you, dancing to their song effortlessly. You sat up straight, your fatigue no longer on your mind. You watched them perform intently, a growing smile on your face. Turning to Sonha, you tilted your head when she winked. Before you knew it, Sonha was pulling you out of your chair and dancing along to the song. You knew the choreography from watching their dance practice several times and danced with her.

   You could hear Eunjae and Gunmin cheering you on, their cheers making you dance even harder. Across the room, KNK chuckled at your antics. Seungjun and Heejun even joined you. Not long after, the song ended and the four of you sat down, huffing in exhaustion. Your past tiredness came back to you, as you fell asleep quickly on Eunjae’s shoulder.

   Bin thanked the staff members respectfully as he walked down the hall behind the stage, sweat dripping from his forehead as he moved. Behind him, the boys talked idly. When they reached their waiting room, Bin noticed he had gotten a text from Jihun. When he opened it, he nearly jumped up and down on the spot.

   Jihun had sent him a video of you and Sonha dancing along to Baby, even singing along from time to time. Bin didn’t even notice how widely he was grinning until he felt Minhyuk look at his phone over his shoulder. Only when the younger male started laughing did he look up. “What’re you watching?” Myungjun asked after swallowing a gulp of water. Bin handed over his phone, replaying the video for them.

   The boys chuckled as they watched, bursting out into laughter as Sonha stumbled and bumped into you, the two of you leaning on each other as you attempted to keep singing along to the song. Attempted being the keyword; you and Sonha being too busy focusing on not falling over.

   Taking his phone back, Bin saved the video. He quickly opened your contact, a smug grin on his face as he typed away.

   You ; now    [Y/N]~~ what a cute fan

   Bin knew that he would never be able to say those words out loud, but he felt more secure saying it over text. He awaited your response, knowing you weren’t busy with schedules after hearing you tell Dongmin earlier in the day.

   [Y/N] ❤ ; now    Huh?

   When Bin sent the video to him, all you sent back in response was a blushing emoji.

   The next day, your manager entered your room with a raised brow. “[Y/N], have you seen this?” she asked, handing you her phone. When you took it, you were surprised to see an article about you and Bin. Your eyes widened when they trailed over the title of the article. You read the title again, shocked.

   M.U.R.A.’s [Y/N] and Astro’s Moonbin Rumoured to be Dating?

   Yesterday, Astro appeared on Music Core, where fellow member Cha Eunwoo and M.U.R.A. member, [S/N], are currently MCs. Fans are speculating whether Astro member, Moonbin, and [S/N] are dating, due to Moonbin’s mannerisms during their interview, as shown in the video below. Moonbin has also acted similarly in past interactions between the two groups. His behaviour has lead to fans believing a possible relationship between the M.U.R.A. member and himself. Neither Fantagio or Woollim Entertainment have confirmed the rumors, but…

   You stopped yourself from reading, your eyebrows raised in surprise. “Fans think we’re dating because he looked at me a few times?” you asked incredulously, more to yourself than anyone. “That’s reaching just a bit, don’t you think?”

   Your manager nodded, knowing very well that you weren’t dating anyone, much less Bin. “I agree, but Jungyeop wants to see you. He’s already issued a meeting with Na Byungjun and Moonbin for tomorrow and he wants you to attend.” You nodded with a sigh, running your hand through your already tousled hair.

   The day went by quickly, with M.U.R.A. being extremely busy with a radio show recording, two photoshoots, a fanmeet, and an interview. You had practically fallen asleep the moment your head touched your soft pillow. You would’ve liked to sleep in, since M.U.R.A. didn’t have a schedule the next day, but alas you were awoken by your manager. “The meeting’s in an hour in Jungyeop’s office,” she had told you as she pulled your covers off.

   You were still half asleep when your manager had dropped you off at Woollim’s headquarters. You trudged through the hallway, willing yourself to smile at anyone you walked passed. You closed your eyes once you entered the elevator to the top floor, leaning against the far wall as you stifled a yawn. Once the elevator stopped, you headed to Jungyeop’s office, knocking against the wooden door softly.

   “Come in.”

   You entered his office, quickly noticing the presence of Bin and a man you assumed was Na Byungjun. You greeted them quietly before taking a seat beside Bin. You tried to ignore the way Bin’s gaze lingered on you for a few seconds too long, but it was obvious that both Jungyeop and Byungjun noticed. Straight to the point, Jungyeop leaned over his desk. “Moonbin, are you in any way infatuated with [Y/N]?”

   Bin was quick to deny the accusation, looking away when you looked in his direction. “No, sir.” His voice was soft, as if he was scared to raise it even just a bit higher. “I’m just a really big fan of M.U.R.A., that’s all.” You smiled down at your lap slightly.

   “And you, [Y/N],” Byungjun turned his attention to you. “Do you have feelings for Bin?”

   You shook your head, “I’m only a fan of Astro, since Sonha, Eunjae, Gunmin, and I watched To Be Continued a few years ago.” It was true, you didn’t hold any romantic feelings for Bin. But, though you’d never say it outloud, you could definitely see yourself liking him in the future. Now, however, you didn’t want to let yourself fall for him. He was, after all, still considered a rookie and you knew it could be bad for both Astro and M.U.R.A. if he was caught dating.

   Both Jungyeop and Byungjun dismissed you and Bin, instructing you to stay outside the door. Once the door shut behind you, Bin turned to you with an apologetic look. “I’m sorry about this,” he murmured, “the whole rumor started because of me.”

   You smiled over at him, “It’s okay, Bin. Some fans just assumed you and I were in a relationship, it’s nothing to beat yourself up over.” Bin hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Besides, it’s not like you actually like me. No matter what anyone else says, at the end of the day the rumors are false.”

   You stared ahead, staring at whatever view the window in front of you provided. Because of this, you didn’t notice the way Bin bit his lip as he stared down at his feet as if they were the most interesting thing in the world.

   Not long after, the door opened and both CEOs walked out. “We’re going to have you two deny the rumors in separate interviews,” Byungjun said. “We don’t want this to happen again, so keep the staring to a minimum in front of cameras, please,” he stared at Bin with a cocked brow. In return, the male nodded sheepishly. “We’ll have an interview ready for this afternoon, so until then you’re allowed to return to your respective dorms.” You bid Jungyeop goodbye before heading down to the elevator, with Bin and Byunjun following behind. The three of you entered the elevator together, the small space quiet– the only noise being the whirring of the elevator as it travelled down to the ground floor.

   Saying your goodbyes to the two, you bounded over to your manager. “All good?” she asked, pushing her glasses back up the bridge of her nose.

   You glanced over your shoulder at Bin, who stared back, before smiling at her. “All good.”

   Astro and Co-Ed Group M.U.R.A. Set to Collaborate for the First Time!

   Two years after Moonbin, Astro, and [S/N], M.U.R.A., were rumored to be dating – which was later confirmed as false by both companies – the two groups are said to be collaborating for a special stage on September 6th! Ever since the minor controversy, neither of the groups have interacted or been seen together once Cha Eunwoo, Astro, and [S/N] were replaced as MCs. Because of this, fans are very excited to see the collaboration.

   “M.U.R.A.’s practicing hard for the collaboration,” fellow lablemate Kim Sunggyu, Infinite, commented recently. “I can’t say much, but I can tell you it’s going to be amazing.”

   Fans and other alike are waiting patiently for September 6th.

   You panted, staring yourself down as you held your position for a second longer after the music stopped. You could hear your manager instructing for another go, only walking off to take a long drink from your water bottle. You had been practicing with Sonha, Eunjae, and Gunmin for an hour now, the moves engraved into the side of your brain.

   The four of you moved into your starting positions, bowing your head as you each posed individually. Your manager started the music, the song starting out slow before exploding into a hip hop-esque beat. Throughout the chorus, the moves got harder, faster, you stumbling a bit as you mouthed your line. Your manager noticed as she sighed. You frowned as you moved out of the way for Gunmin to sing his line.

   Many, many practices later, you weren’t making nearly as many mistakes, give or take a few. It was awkward, dancing a choreography made for ten with four people, but you all managed. “Take a break,” your manager called, handing each of you your refilled bottles. The four of you thanked her comically before collapsing on the cool ground of the practice room. “Astro will be arriving soon for the group practice, so use your break well.”

   “Yes manager,” the four of you mumbled, fatigued after hours of practice. The group began to talk idly between breaths, each of you swallowing about half of your bottles in a single go. Before long, the door to the room swung open and you were greeted with the sight of Astro in casual clothing. Each of them had a bag slung over their shoulder, looking a lot more comfortable than your group did, sprawled on the ground, damp with sweat.

   It was a bit embarrassing, being seen in such a state in front of a group you idolized, but you had seen them in a similar way many times before so you were used to it. The six of them greeted both you and the manager as they dropped their bags in a corner. Putting your water bottles to the side, M.U.R.A. stood up and stretched their limbs before moving into position. Astro followed soon after, pulling off their coats and joining you.

   Before the music could start, you made eye contact with Bin. Smiling cheekily, you simply winked at him.

   Grinning, he winked back.
