Once the boys were done gathering their equipment and things from recording, we said our goodbyes and parted ways.

I had offered to go with them to help them out more, but they turned me down because they were just going to practice their dances more.

When I got home, Soon was on the couch watching TV, but she barely lectured me.

Normally, she would ask me if anything happened or if anything went wrong while I was out. But today she only asked if I had eaten, and when I said no, she left to get food for us.

I guess she's getting more comfortable with the guys. Ever since I met Soon she's been protective of me because she knows how introverted I am. When I'm around people I trust and am comfortable with, I don't worry so much.

She must have realized that I'm comfortable with the boys now, and she trusts them too.

As it was only Saturday, I had plenty of free time to kill. I always plan to do my school work later in the day, almost at night, which means I can lounge around for a while.

As I lay on my bed with my phone in hand, mindlessly scrolling through twitter, I think about the events of today.

I really liked helping the boys with their video, they are so unbelievably entertaining. Their subscribers are lucky to have all that funny content coming their way soon.

Soobin and I had a bit of skinship..... Which I never thought would happen.....ever.

His hands on my shoulders is one thing, he wasn't even doing with too much though at first. But when those runners came by?

What happened to the shy bunny I saw before?

When I was with Jae, he touched me and held my waist all the time. But why did it feel different when Soobin did it?

It felt like there was a sudden lightness in my upper chest that wasn't there before he pulled me in. I've only experienced that once before, when I got into this university. I was so happy that day, I felt like I was flying with excitement and joy.

So was that feeling excitement and joy when Soobin pulled my waist? I don't see how, it wasn't even a huge deal or anything.

But if it isn't a huge deal, why am I feeling that lightness right now?

*~*~*~*~*~*

The mystery was never solved as Soon came into my room before I could find the answer. As much as I want to dwell on the topic, when dramas and take out calls, you must answer.

The first half of this school week is supposed to be really hectic. It seems as though all the professors got together and decided to instant kill everyone with tests and exams.

3 of my 5 classes have tests this week, all happening on Monday through Wednesday. It's safe to say me and Soon's Sunday night was spent studying for several hours.

Or at least I studied. I'm pretty sure I heard Soon sneak from her room at one point.

Either way, this week is going to be hell.

*~*~*~*~*~*

I was right. That was hell.

My tests were over things we only briefly went over in class and the only things I remembered from those topics are what I read on Sunday night.

How did I do? I don't know.

I got the paper, answered some questions, then turned it in. What else am I supposed to do?

Now, it doesn't matter if I did good or not, I need something to relax.

I don't really want to lay around at the dorm, so I need to find somewhere to go out for a bit. This is one of the rare times I am willing to go out.

I walk through the hallway, trying to find something to do for the rest of the day.

From behind me, I hear what sounds like a dying animal. I turn to see 3 of the boys running up to me, followed by Soobin shyly looking around them in the back.

For some reason, I don't move and stay in one spot watching these tall dancers run up to me.

Once they reach me, I realize it's far too late to run now. And everyone in the hall is looking at us because the boys came to me while yelling loudly.

"Hey, Jihyun." They say in unison.

"Hi, guys. W-why did you run up to me like that?"

"Like what?" Beomgyu questions.

Is it normal for them to be that loud?

"Don't worry, they are usually louder than that. If anything that was their 'inside voices'". Taehyun explains.

I laugh at his comment while Beomgyu and Yeonjun have a look of betrayal on their faces.

Meanwhile, Soobin caught up to us.

"Hey, Jihyun."

"Hi, Binnie." I reply.

When I say Binnie, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, and Taehyun all look at each other in confusion.

Oh, wait. They've never heard me call Soobin Binnie before.

Soobin noticed this too, and by his face, he looks scared that the boys noticed.

Before I can think of what to do to recover from this, Soobin speaks up for us.

"Uhhh, so what are you doing for the rest of the day, Jihyun?" He says urgently.

"O-oh, I wasn't going to do anything really. I don't have any plans."

Yeonjun shakes off his confused state and looks at me.

"Really?"

I nod.

"We were gonna meet Kai and go out for pizza to celebrate the tests being over. Do you want to come with us, noona?" Taehyun asks.

"I mean, if you guys don't mind me coming with you-"

"We don't mind, it might even be more fun if you come with us noona." Beomgyu says.

They think it will be more fun? Ok then, I can go for pizza.

"Then sure, I'll go with you guys."

A/N
I actually really like this chapter for some reason. I don't know why.

Anyway, if you're an army, you already know.

STREAM BUTTER!

I've given my streams already and was not disappointed with the song at all 😊

(The next update will be in 2 weeks instead of next week)

Love you guys! 💛💙💛💙💛
