As soon as the episode was released there was massive responses and publicity surrounding us like how the thirteenth member could be Japanese for when Haruto had spoken to them in it. People were excited to see what position he held and what line he fit into.

I had to pretend to be staff most of the time, walking away from the group but as soon as we went into the building they'd rush over and tackle me.

A lot of the time I had spent with them was repetitive and I think It was for me to get to know them, they would do their separate activities like treasure map where I would stay home and then we would hang out in the dorm.

I didn't interact with the fans other than the one treasure map episode we did in the dorms. To build more suspense and shock I guess. Talking about shock the members had long gotten over the fact I was a female and now I was losing all sense of my femininity finding myself playing basketball with them (which I was surprisingly good at) and being boisterous with them, not that that was bad.

"Nao, it's time to go home." I looked up to the door the youngest had just entered through. "Yeah, I'm coming."

"1 2 3 4 5, 1 2 3." I whispered under my breath as I danced in the empty practice room, my trainers squeaking against the floor and the song of our debut ringing through the speakers.

My singing was lead vocalist at best and my rapping was not that worked on so if I struggled on them I might as well tune up what I'm already really good at, dancing.

The uniqueness of the song caught me by surprise but it was good nonetheless. I had part of the chorus that I did backing vocals for saying 'I'll be your girl' and a small single part but other than that I was mainly heavily used in the choreography.

The next few days we listened to the title track that was to be our debut song and practice the choreography we were given. It was none stop chaos as soon as we got the song there was a lot to get done but other than the business of everything I was euphoric that our debut was finally insight.

"Harutoooo, get out you've been in there for so long!" I shouted pounding at the dark wooded bathroom door. There was a line of boys behind me getting annoyed at the younger Japanese.

The door opened slowly and a calm Haruto came out ruffling his hair with a small towel that was draped over his shoulders. I whipped him with my towel when he smirked at me making him groan and the other boys laugh. If I wasn't an only sibling I would imagine this was what it would be was like.

"Nao you're so gross!" Haruto wined as he played with his hair making it even messier. They were the only ones in the room since they were both the ones that woke up the latest.

"Hyunsuk!"

The said boy walked into the room at the sound of the arguing.

"What are you squabbling about this morning." He said almost monotone before going to Junkyu's bed and spreading out the cover evenly onto the mattress.

"Hyung! She put her feet on my head."

"I was unconscious! How was I supposed to know, it's your fault for putting your head too close to my bed." I huffed.

"Why don't you just put your pillow the other way?"

I normally kept my head by my ladder because the window was there and I thought it would be cool but it ended up just making the sunlight lay on my face, so it wasn't a bad idea.

There was a deafening silence before Hyunsuk sighed and spoke again. "Are you all packed? Our manager is coming later to take us over to the hotel for shooting. It's for a few nights and expect it to be on the colder side." With that, he left the room.

I stepped up onto the bus-like vehicle it looked comfy and I wasn't that mad about spending a few hours in it. The other dorm was already sat down doing their own thing. I sat at the front by the window with the seat next to me unoccupied, the other side of seats being filled with staff. 

23:00

"We're here." Our manager stands up at the front and starts going through the things we would be doing but my brain was in a different dimension and could only focus on going to bed so most of it was blocked out.

When he was finished I got up and stretched whilst yawning I didn't know being in a box for so long could be so draining mentally and physically. Getting my bags I mindlessly followed where I was getting directed to.

We were split into three rooms by age so the maknae line, middle line and Hyung line would be in separate rooms. I walked behind Doyoung being the last person to enter, there were two double beds and one single bed. Jeongwoo immediately went to the single bed while Doyoung and Junghwan went to one and Haruto went to the other double bed.

I stared at Jeongwoo with a 'are you serious' look and he looked up at me confused. "I'm taking the single, move your butt."

"Whyy." He whined and I stared at him weirdly. "So I'm going to share a bed with Haruto?" I ask making him look over to the last remaining bed where Haruto was sitting playing games on his phone.

"Yes.." He said making me sigh and take one of the pillows from the bed and start hitting him with it.

"Okay! Okay! I'll move."

He walked over to the double bed with a stroppy face.

"I'm not that bad." Haruto said putting his phone down and hugging Jeongwoo as he yelled in protest.
