Recap:

"Sunoo are you annoying our new member already?" Heeseung asked, slightly stepping in the room. Sunoo looked at you.

"No, we were just talking." You said avoiding Sunoo's glare.

"She said she will sing for us all tonight!" He hollered.

"I'm looking forward to it ." Heeseung grinned.

"No, I-"

Niki's head peaked into the room.

"Really?" He said pushing the eldest aside.

"Yes." Sunoo said as you shook your head no.

Niki ran out yelling the whole way down the staircase to tell the others.

"Is it always like this?"

"You'll get used to it." Heeseung replied. "Anyways I came to tell you dinners in 20 minutes. Jay's making pasta and chicken, if you like that sort of thing."

"Sounds good." You sighed. Heesung and Sunoo left and you felt butterflies in your stomach. You have so sing. Possibly in 30 minutes unless you can hold off. What would you even sing? With your luck you would somehow choke on your words and Sunghoon would annoy you. You picked up your book and flipped through the list of songs. There was no way you were singing one of your drafts. You looked down the list. Sunoo had already heard you sing Bad Habits. You couldn't sing just any of these because some made you emotional. Ironically your eye landed on 'Hoodie' by Hey Violet. You looked at you new closet. You saw the hoodie, the one Sihyuk left you. You felt a tear fall onto you hand. You wiped your face. When had you started crying? 

"Stupid sweater." You grabbed it and went to change in your bathroom.

   You took a deep breath and headed downstairs. Halfway down the staircase you stopped and listened. Jake was playing a game with Heeseung, Jay was yelling at Sunghoon because he couldn't cut onions. Niki was laughing at something. You didn't hear Jungwon or Sunoo. Someone tapped on your shoulder.

"Are you going to stand there forever, or go down? Cause I'm hungry." Jungwon chuckled. 

"Oh, sorry. I was..." You couldn't think of an excuse.

Jungwon grabbed your arm and lead you down. "C'mon we have to be first!"

   Niki wasn't downstairs. It turned out he was in his room. He came down in time to eat though. Niki sat on your left and Sunoo on your right. You couldn't seem to escape the two's bickering. An eternal love-hate relationship it seemed.

   Once everyone started eating the awkwardness left almost completely. They asked some questions but it was mostly only Niki and Sunoo. They asked about all things you liked, gifts, places, shows, clothing, idols, instruments, dances, songs, everything. Sunghoon seemed interested in your guitar playing. Other than that he was tuned out.

"Are you going to play for us?" Sunoo burst out. 

"Yah, I want to hear you sing!" Niki hollered.

"I'll get the guitar!"

" No I will!"

The two raced up the stairs in sync. Your eyes met Jake's. He blushed and looked away but ended up glancing back. You smiled at his shyness. Heeseung nudged his arm. Niki  and Sunoo came back downstairs with your guitar. The item glinted in the light. Sunghoon looked up and looked at it like he wanted to snatch it out of the air.

Panic hit you hard. What will you play? 

They were all watching you patiently waiting for you to play, and there was no way you were getting out of this so you sighed and started strumming.

You looked up. They all looked stunned.

"Wow." Niki whispered. Sunoo scooted forward.

"Who made that?" He asked.  

"Um... Justin Bieber."

"Play something else by him!" Heeseung said.

"Um, OK." You thought. What other songs did you know by him. 'Oh' you thought. 'I can play anyone.'

You sighed and started strumming again. Sunoo giggled and sat back. Heeseung leaned on Jake. 

You finished and Jay started clapping. The others joined in. You bowed and thanked them.

"You really are incredible Soojin!" Niki said. Sunoo glared at him and you spotted Heeseung rolling his eyes. Jay got up and cleared everyone's plates. The others seemed oblivious to it but your thought that he was going out of his way and it should be appreciated. You offered to help and thanked him but he turned you down so you ended up heading back to your room. 


Sunoo asked if you wanted to play a game but you told him you were tired and headed of to bed. As you drifted to sleep your mind wandered through six possibilities of what tomorrow could turn out like. You wanted so badly to stay awake and daydream but the tired hold overcame you.



You jolted awake.....
