My Yellow

Part 54 - Theo

I roll over on my side, opening my eyes slowly. I don't remember falling asleep, but I must have when Rose and I laid down. I pat beside me trying to feel for her, but she's not there. I sit up and look around the room, still not seeing Rose. I kick my blanket off and stand. I swing my arm around until my shoulder pops. I walk to my slippers and slide them on before opening the door and walking out. I shut the door behind me and walk down the dorm hallway. I walk from the dorms to the practice room and stand awkwardly in the door way. I stare at Keeho waiting for him to say something so I can walk in, but he doesn't even look my way. I groggily walk into the room and stand by him.

"Oh hi sleeping beauty, how was your nap?" Keeho nudges my shoulder.

"It was fine," I rub my eyes. "Where's Rose?" Glancing around the room, I don't see her or Makayla. I don't even see Nicole. "Where are the girls?"

"They went to get coffee," jiung says walking to us. "The company car is actually under maintenance so they had to walk, but look outside." I turn my head to the window and see that it's pouring rain outside.

"Do they have an umbrella?" I ask, then jump a little when a crack of thunder booms.

"I doubt it. It was super sunny when they left, so they probably didn't think about it," Keeho laughs. "I hope the humidity doesn't mess then up."

"Huh," I blink my eyes. "I'll wait by the door for them with some towels."

"Yeah I will too," Jiung nods.

"I will too!" Intak calls from across the room.

"How did he hear us from all the way over there?" Jiung whispers.

"I don't know, kinda scary," I whisper back and head to the door, with jiung and Intak behind me.

"Are we going on an adventure? Come on soul!" Jongseob says loudly.

"We aren't going on-" I turn to the two boys and see them beaming with a smile. "Okay fine," I huff and walk all the way out, now with four members following me like ducklings. I walk back to the dorm area and to my room. I grab three towels and turn back to the door. I blink at the four guys at my door. I push past them and walk all the way back to the front of the building and stand by the front door.

"So what are we doing?" Soul asks me quietly.

"Waiting for the girls to come back," I set the towels down on one of the green chairs by the door.

"Rad," Jongseob nods.

"Rad?" I laugh. "When did you start using rad?"

"I heard it in one of my video games," he shrugs and rocks on his heels.

"Ah," I take my phone out of my pocket and check the time. It's nearly five pm.

"Run!" I hear someone shout from outside. "Come on Makayla!" Then Nicole bursts into the building dripping wet. Intak scurries and grabs her a towel. He wraps it around her shoulders.

"Is it that bad?" I ask her as she adjusts her hands to hold two drinks.

"Yeah, it's like raining pellets. Wait till you see Rose and Makayla. I don't know what happened.." she starts to laugh a little. "But their hair is crazy."

"Rose! Why are you stopping!" Makayla's voice shouts from outside the doors. Makayla says something I can't hear, she says it right as thunder hits.

"Language!" Rose yells in response. Makayla walks inside and Jiung hands her towel.

"Makayla.. your hair.." Jiung whispers, a small smile on his face. Makayla's hair is poofed out like a lions mane.

"I know!" She grabs the towel with her free hand. "I know." She holds three drinks in one arm.
