"Oh come on, now, Youngjae, smile. Just one," Jackson said. "The world isn't ending already,"

Youngjae gave him a forced smile before looking back down at the paper he was writing on. Jackson had apparently gave him 'lines' and forced him to write 'the world is not ending'

"I can't believe you!" he complained. "How can you make me write 'the world is not ending' over and over?"
"Because you're acting like it is, when it's not!"

Youngjae sighed.

"You are unbelievable,"
"So are you,"

Jackson looked at Youngjae's paper, which was almost filled with words.

"That's fine. You're done. At least you get the point that the world isn't ending,"

He shot his older member a glare, who got up and moved away from him, knowing that Youngjae was perfectly capable of hitting him even though Jackson was older.

"Hi, Youngjae!" BamBam said brightly, a smile on his face.
"Why are you so happy?"
"No reason. Why are you so quiet?"

Youngjae didn't answer. Instead he sighed and got up, leaving the dorm. He didn't know where to go. His feet were just walking aimlessly, until he arrived on the rooftop.

His phone rang. He looked at the caller ID before answering.

"What?"
"Will you go to their shooting place today?"
"No, Jimin. I have no plans of doing that,"
"Not even once?"
"Not even once,

Jimin sighed through the phone.

"What are you going to do all day, then?"
"Practice? Sleep? What else am I supposed to do?"

No reply.

"Yah, Park Jimin!"
"Go to their shooting place."
"No. How am I going to get over her if I do that?"
"You'll find someone else,"
"Like who? Sowon? Wendy?"
"I cannot believe you!"
"I can't believe you, either. I-"

Then she hung up. He stared at his phone, seriously shocked that she'd do that to him.

"Aish!" he ran a hand through his hair, frustrated, before just deciding to get something to drink at the cafe. He was muttering under his breath as he went inside, not noticing where he was going. He bumped into someone.

He looked up and immediately apologized, bowing.

"Sorry,"
"Oh... G-GOT7! Choi Youngjae!"

He bowed again.

"Oppa, I'm a fan! Can I have a photo?"

He nodded slowly and took a photo with her.

"Thank you, oppa!" she bowed, smiling brightly.
"Uhh... No problem," he said slowly.

He headed to the counter to buy himself a coffee when his phone rang again while he was waiting.

"What is it about this time, Park Jimin?"
"Youngjae-yah..."
"Oh, sorry, Yerin," he quickly apologized.
"It's fine,"

He got his coffee, taking out a few bills to pay for it, and thanked the man, turning to leave the shop. Arguing with Jimin for a second time, this time he was the one who hung up on her.

He let out a sigh, thinking about what to do next. The face of the fan who he had just met minutes ago appeared in his head, and he shook the thoughts away by hitting his head.

Wendy wasn't here yet. She still had a schedule, so now, we're just sitting around the table, playing on our phones and checking our SNS.

"Look at this!" Hyunsik announced, showing his phone to us. "Fans' pairing for this show,"
"Well... They got one right," Sowon smiled. "CUBE couple won't break apart,"
"Two actually," Sohyun said. "Sowon and Minhyuk,"
"Me and Wendy? Is that even possible?"
"It's the fans' ships, Niel..." I sighed.
"That leaves you and Mark!" Minhyuk smiled.

I mentally facepalmed.

"Let's sail the Minhyuk and Sowon ship," Mark spoke.
"Isn't it sailing already?"

By now, Sowon's cheeks were pink and Minhyuk looked embarrassed.

I opened my Twitter and checked the same hashtag.

"Memes!" I said happily, opening one of Wendy and Niel.
"That's good," Sohyun commented. "They made it well,"
"Fans are good with these things," Minhyuk said.

A few minutes later, the doorbell rang.

Of course, it could only be Wendy.

"Niel, get the door. Your partner's here already," Mark said, focused on his phone. Niel shot him a glare before getting up to open the door, returning a moment later with her.
"What are you guys doing now?" Wendy asked.
"Checking SNS,"

And that was it. Another moment of silence.

"Him? My partner?" Wendy pointed at Niel, her eyes wide when we told her about the fans' pairings. "But he's so annoying!"
"The more you argue, the more fans ship you two together,"
"Oh god, you must be joking!" Niel laughed. "Why ship them, then?" He pointed at me and Mark, then at Sohyun and Hyunsik.
"Same company,"
"And them?"

We looked at Sowon and Minhyuk.

"Um... They look good together," Mark said slowly.
"You don't sound so sure,"
"How would I know how they look to the fans?"

No one answered him.

And again, someone rang the doorbell. I looked around and sighed, getting it myself.

"Oh! Sunbaenim. Annyeonghaseyo," I bowed. "Wendy!" I shouted. She came running to the door and I left them.
"Who was that?" Mark asked.
"Red Velvet Seulgi sunbaenim,"

A minute later, they came into the living room where again, I got up and bowed. But so did the rest, so I wasn't alone this time.

"These two?" Seulgi sunbaenim asked, surprised. "Niel? And Wendy?"
"See? Even Seulgi's surprised!" Wendy said loudly.
"You're not the only one, you know!" Niel sighed.

And soon enough, they were arguing about why they were paired together.

"Yah," Mark nudged me.
"Yeah?"
"Let's go out,"
"What? Now?"
"Yup. While they're arguing,"
"Where would we go?"
"Back to the company. I want you to watch our comeback performance."

I looked at the others, who were watching Wendy and Niel fight.

"Fine,"

He smiled and stood up, pulling on my hand.

"Guys, we're going out. We'll be back in a few hours,"
