~Yating's POV~

We finished our performance and were taking our mics off when I heard my name. I turned to see the ITZY members waving me over. I smiled and ran over.

"Hey guys!" I exclaimed. "Congratulations on the comeback!"

"Thanks!" Chaeryeong smiled. "You guys too."

"It's such a cute concept." Lia said. "Yet you guys all seem to play it well, even your scary members."

"Scary members?" I asked.

I expected Axel to be seen as a scary member. He's very masculine and tall so it makes sense, but they said 'members' as in plural. Who else is scary to them?

Yuna was about to speak when she looked past me and slid behind Ryujin, as if hiding behind her. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion when a piece of food came into my peripheral vision.

"Here, eat this." I looked down to see a piece of bread in somebody's hand. I followed the hand up to see E.Z beside me.

"Why?" I asked. "What did you do to it?"

"Nothing." He shrugged. "I just don't want it, and I thought you would want it. Besides, you haven't eaten much today."

I smiled and took the piece of bread. I wasn't one to ever turn down food, unless I was strictly dieting, which it was still hard to do so.

"Thanks oppa." I said.

He nodded and walked away. I turned back to the ITZY members as I chewed on the bread.

"What's wrong Yuna?" I asked.

"She's scared of him." Ryujin answered.

I scoffed, a piece of bread practically flying out of my mouth.

"E.Z is scary?" I asked.

"Yeah!" Yuna exclaimed. "The guy like never smiles, even when he raps!"

I snickered. "If you were around him more, it would be different. He's actually really thoughtful. He takes care of me well."

"Yeah, it always seems like you're the only one, though." Ryujin said.

"What?" I asked, a bit confused.

"Does he take care of everyone well, or just you?" She asked with a brow raised.

I was a bit taken aback by her question but I answered without thinking. "Everyone, of course."

"Hmm, okay then." Ryujin shrugged.

Suddenly that's when ITZY was called for standby.

"Gotta go." Yeji said. "We'll see you around Yating!"

"For sure." I nodded.

I waved goodbye as they walked away and turned around to join my members who were all waiting on me.

"Sorry." I muttered as I joined them and we started heading out.

"It's okay." Mia said, making sure I was with them before we all left.

I started to think about what Ryujin said. I was trying to think of all the times E.Z cared for others, but I couldn't really think of any.

"Hey, unnie." I got Mia's attention.
