Y/n's POV

On Saturday night Heeseung was out late at his friend's house, so I had the apartment all to myself, and it went better than I expected. I sat in front of my computer, staring at the screen. I've been sitting here for literally half an hour, staring at the email that had popped up on my screen a few hours ago, while I was playing Solitaire and listening to 'I GOT IT' by Han Jisung, from Stray Kids. But now I couldn't hear anything as I stared at the words on the screen.

Brain : dead
Inoperative : correct
Happy : dangerous

I read it again for the millionth time:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hello, Y/n.

My name is Bong Minji. I was given the responsibility to employ a professional makeup artist for a well-known Korean group. I asked Lee Kwan, who I believe is our mutual friend, if she knew anyone who would fit the position and the requirements for the job, and she told me to contact you, giving me your email address.

If you are interested in the job offer please get back to me and I will answer any questions you have. I want to add that the group has an upcoming event, in about three days, which they will - obviously - need makeup assistance. The job only asks that you help the other makeup artists and direct them, also, do some makeup where it is needed such as for very important performances or photoshoots and such. I'm sorry this is short notice. Please get back to me as soon as possible.

Secretary Bong Minji.

I took a deep breath and pulled out my phone, almost dropping it in the process. I called Seohyun. It rang five times before I heard a "It's 1 AM, what do you want?" come from her.

I didn't worry about being well mannered before I broke the news to her. "SEO! I GOT AN EMAIL FROM A WOMAN WHO IS OFFERING ME A JOB AS A PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP ARTIST FOR A FAMOUS KOREAN GROUP! OMG I'M FREAKING OUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO REPLY! HELP ME! OH MY GOSH I'M SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW- I'M GLITCHING!" I could hear a scream come from the other line. I love how she matches my energy like this. "OH MY GOSH, Y/N! THIS IS GREAT! Oh my gosh let me calm down.. Okay, so, since you're clearly taking the job, start by greeting, and then say thank you for the job offer, and that you're accepting it."

I began typing and we went quiet, only the fast taps of the keyboard was heard. "What did you type?" She asked when I paused. I smiled at the words. "Good morning Secretary Bong Minji. Thank you so much for this job offer I almost got a nose bleed and peed my pants thi-" Seohyun cut me off with a high pitched scream. "YOU CAN'T SAY THAT!" She screamed through the phone. "CAN YOU TRY NOT TO ACT BRAIN DEAD SOMETIMES? DELETE ALL OF THAT!" I laughed at her reaction and held in the backspace key. "Okay now let me get my dictionary so I sound smart." She laughed on the other end and I did the same.

After a few minutes I had a pretty good, simple email ready to send. I read it aloud. "Good morning Secretary Bong Minji. Thank you so much for this job offer, I would like to accept it. If you need an urgent makeup artist, maybe we can meet and you can fill me in on whatever needs to be covered. Yours truly, L/n Y/n." Seo was quiet for a few seconds. "Good. It sounds good. Now send it." I took a deep breath before clicking the 'send' button. When it sent I quickly shut down the computer, grabbing my phone and jumping on my bed.

"I sent it. I'm going to take a nap now, so, If I get an email from her again, I'll call you." We said our goodbyes and then I hung up. I grabbed a pillow, switched on the fan, putting it on the lowest, and then threw myself on the most comfortable couch. I closed my eyes and tried to fall asleep, and after what felt like hours, I finally did.

"Hey, Y/n. Wake up." I heard a whisper, interrupting my dream. I squinted awake, it was still dim in the room. "What time is it?" I asked, my voice barely audable and croaky. "Almost 3 AM." He smiled. I pushed him away from me. "Why are you waking me at this ungodly hour?" I groaned. "Just get up, we're going out."

We sat at a booth at the back of the boba shop, we ordered drinks and soon they arrived. I took a sip of mine and looked out of the window, my eyes still sore from little sleep. "You look terrible." Was what he said. I looked at him and sighed. "I went to sleep a few minutes past 1, you woke me up at 3. I feel like death." I rubbed my eyes and looked around- that's when I spotted someone who bought a feeling of familiarity in my stomach. "I slept from 8 to 12PM. Anyways, tomorr-later today I have dance practice again, I assume you'll want to go home from school and take a nap?" I nodded my head, not paying much attention to what he was saying. And then it hit me.

It's the guy that was at the studio. Sunghoon. I think that's his name. Yes. I don't know. I pulled my eyes from him and onto Heeseung, he was looking at something outside, sipping the cold tea. I put my head on my arms, closing my eyes. We spoke for a couple more minutes and then I heard a chair squeak. Sunghoon got up and pulled a leather jacket on, fixing his hair before he started walking to the door. I made an excuse and got up, walking to him, I stopped him just before he got to the door.

"Sunghoon. Hey." I said. Why is he here alone, so early. The spot under his are a shade darker, bags? "I have to go." He said, pushing past me and out the door before I could say anything else.
