Months of school and practice flew by as my spikes did past the opponents when I got the chance to hit a ball. I had attended the swimming competitions of Yeonjun, Beomgyu, and Taehyun. Yeonjun was really part fish and Taehyun had the butterfly stroke down better than anyone. Beomgyus was solid in every swim competition which is why now I understand he is the captain. 

Kamal and I would practice a lot before big games and tournaments. He really became my savior when I wasn't feeling too confident about my skills or when I couldn't sleep. He would take me to the sand volleyball court and run drills with me until I finally talked it out with him. 

Taehyun was constantly trying to get the boys to go spare with him but no one except me would. I hated when he went soft on me because when girls wrestling didn't exist and I had to wrestle boys they never went soft on me. I was just another wrestler. His excuse is that Boxing is different and I just had to live with it. 

Fall was turning into winter pretty quickly meaning our routines were gonna change soon. I was going to be wrestling instead of playing volleyball. Kamal would be in the pool for water polo. Yeonjun and Soobin would be in Basketball and Beomgyu would be training like Soobin did while they were not in a sport. Since wrestling and Boxing are in the same category I had many classes scheduled with Taehyun like I did Kamal the season before. 

"Hey (Y/N) are you going home this long weekend?" Yeonjun asked me, packing his bag for a few days.

"No, No one will be home so I will stay here" I smiled at him folding one of his shirts and handing it to him. 

"Does Soobin know that?" I shook my head looking out the door at Soobin walking out of the bathroom. 

"No... Should I tell him?" I asked contemplating if I should tell him or not. 

"I mean... I think you should. I would want Zui to tell me as her boyfriend if she wasn't going home" I started chewing on my lip a bad habit I had when I was stressed that I gave up a long time ago but has recently returned. 

"Boyfriend?" I said a little too loud. 

"Huh... You haven't talked about that? How long have you guys been 'seeing' each other?" I whined rolling my eyes and throwing myself back on my bed. 

"No... now I feel like it's too late to ask. Like oh, we have been having sex and hanging out for quite some time... but what are we?" I said in a high-pitched voice making Yeonjun laugh at my stupidity. 

"Okay here is some advice... Soobin is really easy-going and open-minded. He would rather you talk to him than assume. No matter what it is" He threw his bag over his shoulder and pulled me in for a hug and a kiss on the cheek. 

"You are right I will talk to him" I mumbled and gave him a kiss back on the cheek. 

"Great! I will see you in a couple of days! Love you!" He shut the door leaving me to think how I was going to approach this matter.

"Hey! Why are you not packed?" Soobin walked in with his bag on his shoulder and a concerned look on his face.

"Oh um... No one is going to be home this weekend so I am staying here. Can I talk to you about something before you leave?" I sat up and placed a pillow in my lap. 

"Of course what's up?" He sat on the edge of my bed and took my hand in his rubbing the top of my hand with his thumb. 

"Well... Yeonjun told me to just be straight with you so... What are we? Are we just casual or..." He leaned in and kissed my lips gently smiling into the kiss. 

"I am glad you asked. Since you are not going to your house pack your bags you will come home with me... So my family can meet my girlfriend." I smiled loving the sound of that off his lips. I nodded and got up to pack my bags quickly.

Soobin was taking my things out of the car in front of his house when I suddenly started to panic internally. I looked around for an exit plan but had none. 

"Are you okay babe?" He asked taking my hand in him. 

"Yes... um... well" I was stuttering trying to get my words out. 

"Hey calm down gather your thoughts then speak" He whispered soothingly while hugging me tightly. 

"Are you sure your family won't mind that I am here?" I said in a shaky voice. 

"No baby they will not. They will be happy to meet you" I nodded still nervous but walked up to the door with him. He jiggled the doorknob to see if it was open but then knocked realizing it was closed. 

"OMG, My baby is home!" Mrs. Choi said opening the door but stopping when she saw me and Soobin's hand wrapped around my waist securely. 

"Hey, mom!" He smiled while I shrunk to feet from intimidation. 

"Who is this?" She hugged him kissing his cheek. 

"This is my girlfriend (Y/N). She is amazing please accept her" He tried to whisper secretly but I heard him anyway. 

"She's adorable who wouldn't want to accept her. Come in honey." She hugged me then held my hand leading me inside. 

"Thank you for having me," I said with a nervous smile. 

"Oh, honey don't be scared here. Soobin has a very good judge of character so If he brought you home that means you are super special to him" She chuckled looking up at Soobin walking into the room. 

"Oh, so you are already gossiping about me? Everything is true!" He hung his head down pouting making us laugh and uwu at him. 

"I will remember that" I leaned into his mom laughing as hard as I am. 

"Well, I am not dumb so if you want to sleep in the same room go ahead. The only thing is please don't give me another grandbaby before your brother does!" My face went bright red and I turned around to hide my face in Soobins chest that was chuckling. 

"awe mom you ruined my plans," He says playfully making me hit his chest. 

"She is so cute Soobin. I have to go grocery shopping so go unpack and relax. I'll be back soon" She pats my head laughing then walked out the door. 

"I hate you" I mumble in his chest. 

"Say that again and you will not like the consequences" I clenched my jaw so confused with his duality in a situation like this. 

"You heard your mom no grandbaby" I put my hands on my hips. 

"Yeah but she didn't say anything about practicing and all the coaches at the academy say Practice makes perfect" He pulled me up the stairs to his room in a hurry. 

"Soobin I swear you have a loophole for everything" I giggled following him closely.
