"They're still not awake?" Jay asked and opened the bedroom door. Jay and I just finished our classes. "Lucky, I want to sleep in" I mumbled and followed him in. "Ugh~" Sunghoon groaned and sat up.
"I slept for maybe four hours," Jay told Sunghoon. "Four hours? I slept for about two" I said and climbed into Ni-Ki's bed. "Lucky, you're still sleeping" Jay told him. "Jungwon isn't here yet" He pointed out. Jungwon must've still been in class.

I changed into a shirt I stole from Sunoo and some shorts and sat beside Sunghoon in the living room as we watched Jay pick up all his clothes he brought from home. Sunghoon and I just stared off into space while Jay cleaned up his mess.
Sunghoon eventually walked off, but I just sat down near the window and scrolled on my phone. "You're back" Jay said as I watched Jungwon walk into the room. "Hm? Is this yours?" Jungwon asked and sat down on the couch. "Yup" Jay said.
Sunghoon came back into the room as the three of them looked at Jay's stuff. "Best unboxing of the age" Jay said and picked up his new shoe box. He flipped open the lid and messed with the paper. "I really love this sound" Jay said. "Are you unwrapping it for the first time?" Sunghoon asked.
"Ooh!" Sunghoon sighed as Jay lifted a shoe out of the box. Jay held it up with a smirk on his face, all proud. "This might fall all off easily" Jungwon said. "You should really be careful" He added. I don't know where Sunghoon went, but Jake eventually came stumbling out of the room.
"It's so hot" He whined and walked over to the couch. "It's really hot. Jake hyung, the heater was on" Jungwon said. Jake flopped down near me on the couch. I looked over at him and messed with his messy hair and moved the tv remote away from his face.
"Really?" Sunghoon asked and came back into the room. "Yeah, someone left the heater on" Jungwon said. I think it was Ni-Ki and I from after everyone fell asleep, we both got cold and turned up the heat. Whoops. Jake just laid down near me, Sunoo eventually woke up and walked around to get ready. Jay just still adored his shoes.
"This is amazing" Jay said and walked around in his shoes. "My heart flutters every time I wear these" He said while taking off his shoes. Jake finally stood up and sat in between Jay and Jungwon to watch Jay open another item. Which was a new nintendo switch.
"Then can you do multiplayer with Heeseung hyung and Emily noona?" Jungwon asked. "Of course" Jay said.

"I ordered kongguksu" Sunghoon said as we both walked into the kitchen. "I ordered it too" I said and sat down on the other side of him. "This two are both kongguksu" Sunoo said and handed us a bag. "Don't you usually eat kongguksu with sugar?" Jungwon asked. "There's this, too" Sunoo said and handed Sunghoon a small bag.
"It's sugar right?" Sunghoon asked. "How do you eat this?" He asked again. "It's salt" Jungwon said and picked up the small bag. "Oh, it's sugar" he said and kept looking over it. "Wooah!" Sunghoon shouted. "It almost popped" Sunghoon said and picked up the bag again.
"It would be legendary if it pops" He said. "It popped! It popped! It popped! It popped!" He said over and over again. He held it over his noodles so it didn't make a mess. I had already put my broth in and added the sugar, while he was still figuring it out.
"Where's the scissors?" He asked. I took a bite of my noodles and handed him the scissors I used. "It looks good" Jungwon said and watched him. "Do you put a lot of sugar in kongguksu?" Sunghoon asked me. "Just use the entire thing, it'll taste better" I said.
I stopped eating to scroll through my phone as I heard Sunghoon take a bite. "Is it good?" I asked. "Wait" He paused and looked up at me. "Isn't that salt?" Jay asked. "Let me taste yours" Sunghoon said. I gave him a bite as he slightly laughed. "It's salt" He said.
He slightly gagged and turned away from his food. "You should put in sugar" Jay said. "Ah, the kongguksu... I really wanted to eat it" He sighed. "Do you want mine?" I asked. "Can I have it, yours was good" Sunghoon asked as I nodded and handed him mine.
"What are you going to eat?" Jake asked. "I can eat Sunghoon's" I said and took his bowl and took a bite. "Never mind" I immediately said and almost gagged as everyone laughed. I moved spots and sat beside Jay on the bench and continued to scroll through my phone.
"Isn't it almost our first time eating breakfast here?" Jay randomly asked. "Yeah, it is our first time" Jungwon said. "But the thing is, it's not the morning. It's almost 12, it's not morning" Jay said.
While Jay was looking away, I quickly picked up my chopsticks and took some of his noodles before he noticed. Whenever he turned around, I turned away from him since my cheeks were filled with the noodles.
The staff slightly laughed from behind the cameras as I quickly swallowed and turned back to him. "What did you do?" He asked me. "Nothing, don't worry" I said and covered my mouth with my hand.
"Heeseung hyung's started, his one-outfit-a-week wearing" Jungwon laughed as Heeseung sat down in front of me. "No, when he wears one outfit, he just sleeps with that on" Jake said. "Doesn't he wear one outfit for one cycle?" Jay laughed. "Clothes are there for you to wear" Jay added.
"The person who said he's starting his diet today" Jungwon said as Sunoo sat down with some sweets. "Yah, lunch is fine," Sunoo said.

While waiting for practice, I leaned on Ni-Ki with some airpods in and fell asleep. Later found out Jake and Sunoo took pictures of us.

"Are you starting to get it?" The dance instructor asked. Jay, Ni-Ki and I had extra practice to learn Flicker. "I think i've got it" I said and wiped my sweat off with my shirt. "Take a small break" The instructor clapped. I followed Ni-Ki and Jay over to the corner as Ni-Ki sat in the chair and Jay checked his phone.
"Isn't there a lot to do?" Ni-Ki asked. "We have to learn the choreo for the other songs. It's so hard..." He added. "I feel more comfortable than what I imagined. We haven't even started yet" Jay said.
"We're in the process of preparing to start" Jay said. "But it's a lot more than during I-Land" Ni-Ki said. "But practicing more like this is more comfortable than practicing in I-Land" I said. "It's different because now we know we're set to debut, for real instead of competing" I added.

After the others came in, we all ran over the choreography together. "I remember this" Jake said. "This choreography is really nice, I like it" I said.
—
The boys stood in front of me and linked arms, while I got to watch from behind since I was going to just break through and walk into the center. "This too weird" Sunghoon laughed.
"I can't raise my arm" Jake sighed. I stood up and got ready to walk out from behind Jake when he slipped back a bit. "Sorry" He said and stood up straight again. "How did I do it before? This, and then this again?" He asked and ran over his part.
We ran over the linking arms part again and it was easier now that everyone knew how to do it. "And then Emily breaks through Jake and Sunghoon and stands in the middle with Jake behind her" The instructor explained.
The linked arms again and I pushed through Jake and Sunghoon as we went into the chorus with everyone dancing in a circle formation. After we got done with that part I laid on the ground and pulled my phone out of my pocket.
"This is fun" Jake laughed and laid beside me. I quickly took a picture of us as Jay came and lied down beside us. "Pile on Emily!" Ni-Ki called. Next thing I knew they were all laying on top of me.
"Yah! You guys are all too heavy!" I shouted and tried to push them off. "Okay, let's get off" Jay laughed and stood up and helped lift everyone off me and then me to my feet.
I walked off to the corner and took Jay's phone off the charger and put mine on. Jay came over to me and wrapped his arm around me and cupped our mics so our voices were barely heard. "Tonight, let's go out on that date. I already have all of it planned" He whispered before walking away.
On the outside I tried to stay cool, but on the inside I was squealing. Man, it took him long enough to plan it or even ask me.
