Chen walked through the corridor of the sm building one evening after training. She was the last member there and was hurrying home due to her exhaustion. As she walked she felt her phone buzz so she pulled it out of her pocket and answered the call.

"Hello," she said as she placed the phone to her ear, "Hey, are you on your way back?" the voice of Yuta answered from the other side.

"Yeah, just left the training room, I should be there in like 20 minutes," Chen responded as she entered the elevator. Chyou had other things to do that day so she'd decided to take her bike home instead. "Okay, I'm ordering some chicken do you want any?" he asked, and of course Chenyug said yes. So some chicken was ordered on her behalf and soon after they hung up.

However, just as Chenyug had exited the lift she realized she had left an important school book behind. "Oh shoot, I need that for my test," she muttered under her breath as she turned around and made her way back to the practice room she had been using.

Realizing that it would make her slightly late Chen fished out her phone to call Yuta again only to realize it was dead. "Oh well, I'll only be like 10 minutes late," is what she told herself, but oh boy was she wrong.

The first problem she came across was that she couldn't find her book anywhere. It had lodged itself in between a bench and the wall and even when she did find it, it took her some time to weasel it out.

"Whew, god I'm tired," Chen sighed as she finally got out the book, sitting down slightly to recover her breath. However, she made the deadly mistake of closing her eyes and within minutes the girl was sound asleep.

It wasn't until 2 hours later that the girl finally awoke. Chen sat up with a start as she almost fell off of the bench. Feeling a bit woozy the girl looked around to find out where she was when she realized that she had fallen asleep.

"Oh no, oh no no no no," she said as she quickly grabbed her bag and book and ran out of the room. "No no no no," she kept repeating as she hurried to her bicycle, throwing her bag into the basket and hurrying off towards the dorms.

She could only imagine how her members would react to her being 2 hours late, especially since she'd talked to Yuta while on her way home. Chenyug locked her bike in place and hurried into the building, willing the elevator to move quicker.

Finally, after what felt like forever, she made it to the door and fumbled with her keys as she tried to unlock the door. As soon as it was opened the girl was met by 3 worried members all at once.

"Where were you? We were worried sick!" Yuta asked angrily as they all bombarded the girl, "oh ehm-" she started. "Why didn't you answer your phone?" Taeyong then interrupted, barely giving the girl any time to breathe, "it died-".

"Why didn't you come immediately home?" Dongyoung asked finally and so Chenyug explained what had happened.

"All this for a book? I told you something would happen if you didn't slow down," Johnny said smugly from the living room. "Haha, nothing big actually happaned, I just accidentaly fell asleep. Besides, I have a test soon so I need that book," she defended herself but the guys couldn't care less about any test.

"No, if you're so tired that you fall sleep just by sitting down you need to go to bed," Taeyong ordered as he took the book from the girl. "Huh? No but I-" she started but he ignored her, pushing her towards her room.

"No buts, go to bed," he said. Though Chen wanted to retaliate, the seriousness in his voice made her comply. She knew she had worried them, not only with this event but with everything going on with her in recent times.

So Chenyug quickly got ready and snuggled down in bed. Not for herself but for her members.

Even if she was exhausted her insomnia somehow found a way to bug her and it took the girl around 30 minutes to fall asleep, but by the time it was 10 pm the girl was sound asleep.
