IT'S ALWAYS BEEN YOU [STRAYKIDS BANGCHAN × READER]

CHAPTER 3

As expected, you didn't get any sleep, well that isn't quite right, you did sleep two hours, but that did barely count, according to the big dark circles under your eyes.
Even you, as a stylist, struggled to cover them.

It's nearly 8 o'clock by the time you enter the JYP-Building.

A couple hours ago, you got a message from Changwho, telling you that all of you would have a meeting by 8:15 am.

You head to the third floor, where your office is, hoping there will also be meeting-rooms, since you feel kinda awkward asking for directions five minutes before beginning.

As the elevator door opens, you suddenly hear loud voices from not far away.

You can't quite understand what they're saying, but someone seems to be reaaally mad.

You come to a hold in front of a door with the sign "Meetingroom 3.1".

You hesitate, since you're not that familiar with the voices of the members and can't tell if it's Straykids.
It would be really f*cking embarrassing, if you stepped into a fight of another group.

You wait a few seconds, biting your lip and finally decide to knock and walk into the room without further thinking.

The light is really bright and for a moment you can't see anything.

As your eyes slowly adjust to the light, the scene revealing itself is a big mess.

"Why the hell, do you keep doing it? I don't understand. Like seriously ...", Han keeps shouting while making wild gestures towards Chan.

Besides all of the members, there are already some staffs.

You walk up to a woman, not much older than you. "Sorry, but do you know what's going on?"

"Nothing unfamiliar. Han is just mad, because Bang Chan is pulling all-nighters again. But don't worry, this is nothing serious. We'll just have to wait a little longer."

You're kinda perplexed by the stuff she just told you.
>> "Nothing unfamiliar?" <<

What did you get yourself into?

As you look closer to the scene, to Chan to be exactly, you recognize, that he's wearing the same clothes as yesterday and has some visible dark circles under his eyes.

You would have been sad for him, if HE wasn't the reason, YOU barely got any sleep.

"Han, come on, you're overreacting. I know best what I can handle and where my limits are. Just calm down.", Chan says, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"How? Chan, how? Don't you know, we're worried about you? You can the f*ck relay on us, so why do you wanna carry everything on your own shoulders, huh?"

Shit! This is going to escalate.

Looking at the other members sitting on the table and leaning on the wall, you can tell how worried and unpleased they are with their leaders actions.

Suddenly Chris raises his voice.

"BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO LIVE. BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO ENJOY OTHER THINGS AS WELL, SO YOU WON'T BURN OUT. THAT'S WHY!"

He storms out the door nearly crushing into you, but you manage to quickly step away.

Han falls onto his seat with a heavy sigh.

Leeknow walks up to him petting his head, while everyone else stars at the table, remaining quiet.

GOSH. Now you really feel bad for them and Chris.
