"Nope, again," I said to Jake as he came in early on the beat.  After Jungwon, Sunghoon, and Heeseung left for their day of freedom, I was dragged down to the practice room to help Jake with his dance.

Jake groaned and fell on the floor, "Chae! Please!  I can't do this anymore! The song doesn't sound like the song anymore!"

I raised an eyebrow, trying to keep my strict composure, "You said don't go easy on you. So, again.  Count it out loud while coming in."

"I'm never going to get this! I'm doomed!" Jake complained, ignoring my words.

"Okay," I crouched down next to the depressed boy on the floor, "Yah, either do this now or later when the guys come back we're all going to work on this together and I'm not letting anyone leave until you have it down, okay?" I threatened.  "I mean the third option is waking up at the crack of dawn tomorrow."

Jake glared at me, "You're mean."

"Great! Get up before I make you do planks like Jay's making his unit do." I said standing up.  I lightly kicked his leg earning another groan before Jake actually got up and I could start the music.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

Jake finally was able to get the beat down, I had him do it multiple times to make sure it was stuck in his head.  He was even able to do it on time two speed. As Jake and I were celebrating, some of Dive Into U unit came down to the practice room, apparently on a break.

Unfortunately for Niki and Hanbin, Daniel, Jay, Jake, and I immediately switched to English within two feet of each other. "Wait, Chae, do you have an English name?" Jay asked.

"Charlotte Lavigne," I answered.

"Isn't your last name Song?" Niki asked.

I snorted, "Legally, it's Lavigne.   But so many teachers kept stumbling over it in elementary school, and get confused, so my mom always told them to change it to Song in the attendance sheet.  So, I kept the same idea when I came onto the show," I explained. "On my passport, I have a hyphenated last name.  When I'm in France, I use Lavigne."

Daniel frowned, "Wait... so not only do you have two names, Charlotte and Chaeri—"

"And Chaerin.  Chaeri is just a stage name." Jake reminded him.

"That too.  And you also have two last names?  Woah... you, like, have multiple identities!" Daniel gasped, looking at me with excitement.

"Daniel, Korean please!" Niki pleaded, putting his hands together making us laugh.

"Ah, he's saying I have so many combinations of names, it's like I have multiple identities," I explained, earning nods from Hanbin and NIki, "Which honestly... is true.  When I'm in France I'm Charlotte Lavigne and when I'm in Korea, I'm Song Chaerin.  Two very different people honestly."

"How so?" Jay asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Let's just say, if you think I say a lot of bad words now? It's bad once I'm away from Korea." I explained in English.

"Noona! Please!" Niki exasperated again.

I looked at Niki, "That was on purpose.  I don't want you hearing anything," I excused.

"There's just somethings that aren't meant for children's ears," Hanbin joked.

"Eh, well, Niki already understands what fuck means," I said waving a hand.

Jay glared at me and then at Niki, "What?"

Niki grinned, "Fuck? Right?  That's what it is in Korean?" He said something in Japanese that made Jay's eyes widen. "Don't act like you didn't learn those when you learned Japanese, hyung!"
