Off Key

#22

They were already on their 3rd song and everyone was enjoying it.

People started cheering and dancing. The crowd loved them. Nobody expected them to be this good nor to be singers. People started recording and soon, everyone on social media knew about the new group Stray Kids.

"Holy shit, they're incredible!" Yuna yelled out. "I'm surprised Minho and Felix got back into it.." Chaeryeong mumbled to herself. "What!" Yuna said not hearing what she said. "O-oh, nothing, they're good!" Chaeryeong said with a smile. Yuna smiled back and nodded her head.

"I'm going to head to the bathroom, real quick!" Chaeryeong said to Yuna. "Alright!" Yuna went back to dancing. As Chaeryeong walked away, she couldn't help but admire her dancing. Damn, she's good.

Walking to the bathroom, she saw Yeji walkout. "Oh, hey, you're Minho and Felix's sister, right?" Yeji asked all of a sudden. "Yeah, and you're Hyunjin's sister." Yeji nodded her head and stood there.

"Did your brother tell you?" Chaeryeong asked. "No. I'm guessing your brothers didn't tell you either?" Chaeryeong nodded her head. Ryujin walked in and saw the two talking. Chaeryeong noticed Ryujin and quickly escaped into the bathroom.

Everyone who knew the two or went to JYP High, all knew to never be in between their battles.

As Yeji walked away from the bathroom, she felt Ryujin grab her arm. "Let me go," Yeji demanded. "Mmm, I don't feel like it." Yeji couldn't take it anymore and shoved Ryujin.

They always argued and fought but never to the point where it got physical. Someone was always in the way to push them apart. No one was here this time.

"You did not just push me.." Ryujin said, with anger. "And I wouldn't hesitate to do it again."

This set Ryujin off.

She pushed Yeji into a wall and pinned her arms against it. "Listen here princess, I promised Hyunjin a long time ago, that I wouldn't hurt you because you're his sister and he's my best friend, but you're making it hard to not strangle you."

Yeji felt small. Ryujin being this close to her and being so demanding, made her feel something. "I don't even know why he's friends with someone like you.." Ryujin scoffed. "Someone like me? What's that supposed to mean?" Her grip on Yeji got tighter.

"You're insanely rude to people and always start shit." Ryujin couldn't deny that. "And you're always so nice to people. That's all bullshit." Yeji got confused. "What does that mean?"

"Your act," Ryujin got closer. "The whole 'nice girl of the school thing' is all fake." Yeji squirmed her arms from out of Ryujin's grip and slapped her out of anger.

Yeji felt bad immediately but before she could apologize, Ryujin headed straight towards her.

"Oh, you're dead Hwang!"

Yuna entered the living room looking for Chaeryeong. "Oh shit," she mumbled as she saw the two fighting. "There's a fight!" She yelled out, grabbing everyone's attention.

Chaeryeong heard Yuna and left the bathroom immediately, running towards her.

The boys heard Yuna and saw that people started to leave. Chan signaled them all to stop as he looked at his house.

"Hey, you, who's fighting?" Chan asked a person who came back from the house. "Shin Ryujin and Hwang Yeji!" The person exclaimed, running back to the house. "Fuck." Hyunjin said taking off his bass guitar and running to the house.

Minho and Felix followed soon after, resulting in the rest running after.

Hyunjin got there and saw hair pulling and slaps going all around, even fist. He went towards Yeji and held her back as Minho and Felix tried to pull Ryujin back.

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

People started chanting and were all recording.

"Let me go!" Ryujin exclaimed. "No! You two have got to stop this!" Minho said furiously. "I'm serious!" Ryujin yelled out, trying to break free. Felix pulled her back. "And we're serious too! No fights!"

"Hyunjin, don't let me go because I will attack her." Hyunjin didn't let go of Yeji and kept her still. "Trust me. I won't."

The chants started to get louder and louder. People couldn't believe that the famous Ryujin and Yeji were physically fighting for the first time.

"HEY!" Chan yelled out, quieting down everyone. The room got silent. Nobody dared to say a word.

"Yeji, Ryujin, follow me." They all knew what to expect.

He was going to lecture them. Saying how they shouldn't fight and in the end, hug it out. That was Chan's thing. It's what he always did with people who argued with each other. He never did it with the two because they never agreed but this time. They had no choice.

The two followed Chan into the kitchen. Looking down at the ground. Not wanting to look at anybody.

"Hey, are you okay?" Seungmin asked as he approached Hyunjin. "Yeah, I'm fine, but I'm not sure about Yeji." Hyunjin sighed. "Why do you say that?" Seungmin asked confused. "She most likely feels guilty about her actions." Seungmin let out an 'o' and rubbed Hyunjin's back. "You'll talk to her soon."

People soon after started to leave, as it was 3:00 a.m already.

"Seungmin." He knew exactly who was behind him. "Lia..." She pulled Seungmin into the corner of the room, leaving Hyunjin confused.

"You didn't tell me you were in a band with them.." Lia felt mad at him but mostly sad. "I didn't tell you because we promised each other that it would be a surprise," Seungmin said feeling a bit guilty.

"Well, I'm surprised that's for sure. I'm gonna go home now." Lia left, heading towards the door. Once she opened the door, Ryujin started walking towards the door. "Hey, can I get a ride?" Ryujin asked Lia.

"Sure," Lia responded, not questioning. Ryujin smiled at her and the two soon left.

"Hey, what happen-" "I'm going home, I'll see you tomorrow," Yeji told her brother, slightly sad. "Yeji, are you ok-" he was cut off once again by Yeji leaving and shutting the door.

He was confused about why they left so fast. He didn't even get to talk to either one of them. Hyunjin turned around to see all the boys and Chaeryeong and Yuna standing there.

"Umm, Minho, Felix, I just wanted to let you guys know, I'll be at Yuna's house and I'll see you guys tomorrow." They nodded their head and waved goodbye as the two soon left after.

"Wow, that was.. a lot," Jeongin said. Chan entered the living room. "Yeah, hey Chan, what happened in the kitchen?" Hyunjin asked. "They didn't hug. They refused to but they apologized to each other, so that's progress?" Chan said as he sat down on the couch.

"It's late. We should all head home after helping Chan clean up." Seungmin suggested. "No, I'll clean tomorrow. You all should head home with someone though. I don't want you guys to be driving this late alone."

They all weren't opposed to the idea. It wasn't a bad idea after all.

"I can stay with Chan and help him clean up. I told my aunt I was going to sleep over anyways." Jeongin said, sitting down next to Chan.

"Felix is going to sleep over at my house tonight," Changbin said as they already agreed to the idea.

"Can I stay with you? My house is too far for this late of a drive." Jisung asked quietly to Minho. "Yeah, of course," Minho responded. "Jisung's staying with me," Minho announced.

"And Hyunjin can stay with me," Seungmin said with Hyunjin agreeing.

"Alright, everyone stay safe and we'll talk about everything tomorrow, here." The boys nodded their heads and walked out of the house except Jeongin.

Chan shut the door and locked it. He looked behind him and saw Jeongin sitting on the couch.

"Well, that was eventful.."
