A/N: hello my friends, I don't know how i'm still writing this every week. This week i'm submitting my application for my visa for korea, so pray for me LOL. Enjoy this spicy chapter because I just wanted to sprinkle some ~drama~. 

Yeona's POV

I really thought shit was gonna get really bad. Well, that isn't to say it didn't get bad. I occasionally felt like someone, or many teenage girls, was following me around. Stalking me. I'd arrive at the gym, and I'd see newbie climbers who clearly weren't interested in climbing. The second they spotted me, I noticed that they never left my sight, even when I went to the corners of the gym. They brought negative energy with them, what with their glaring and whispering. I tried to ignore it.

Well, no, I didn't ignore it. I honestly just told Jeongin right away, and he was quick to add some security to the gym. How does security at a gym work? I don't really know, but something happened, and suddenly there was less glaring.

This also happened at work a little just outside the building, but once inside the stalker crazy fangirls couldn't get past security without a key card, so I was safe within the company.

Stuff was settling down. The news was becoming old. It became a more known fact that Jeongin of Stray Kids was dating a normal person, and that they were private about their relationship. It was relieving that this was happening. It felt refreshing and freeing to be able to see Jeongin in public without worrying that someone would see us. If someone saw us now, it would just be us worrying about crowds, but not us worrying about a negative reaction to the relationship. Life was...Hmm. Yeah. Life was good.

The guys decided that to celebrate our lives going back to some level of normalcy (they were finally done with the tour, they were done with promotions for the time being, and they didn't have as many plans up next since they were thinking about taking a break), we should do a BBQ on the roof, just like the good ole days, only this time, our roof was a little nicer than that smol one at our first apartment.

"Jeongin, did you get —"

"Yes, I got it all. I got the trash bags, the plates, chopsticks, paper towels—"

"What about the—"

"Yep, I got those too."

I smile, and pout a little at his...perfection. He smiles back at me. I chuckle a little and tell him, "Thank you."

He grabs my hand and pulls me in for a warm hug, kissing the top of my head, as I bury my face into his chest.

"By the way, I think that the guys may have invited other people other than just us."

"Oh really? Do we have enough supplies for it?"

"Yeah, it's probably fine. They're all bringing food too!"

I jump up and down a little, giddy for some socialization. I felt like I had been very heads down in work and to avoid fans outside, so this was going to be a nice break.

"They're gonna be here soon, wanna head upstairs?"

I nod, grab some of the things with him, and head to the elevator.

The evening is off to a great start with Jeongin and Chan cooking up the meat at each end of the long table. Hyunjin isn't here yet, but he had texted he was running late with his friend from SOPA.

"Yeona, have you met Dani?"

I look over at Changbin's friend and staff member of the Stray Kids team, and smile and wave. We both recognize each other from various events in the past and decide to tease Changbin, saying, "Come on, Binnie. How can I not know Yeona already?"
