Chapter 8

"Breaking news, stray kids member Kim Woojin, has stepped away from the group citing 'personal reasons', but fans have made their own assumptions as to why he left.
Some stays have said he left due to his bullying behaviour towards the younger members, " the entertainment reporter said.

*ring ring*
"Hey Han, what's up, I just saw the news, is it true? Is it due to the bullying?" Sterling said
"Yes, management started seeing how aggressive he was becoming, especially after the SKZ code episode where he almost threw Felix into the seats." Han said sadly
"I saw that, is Felix OK? He looked really hurt, and I thought Chan was gonna kill Woojin," Sterling replied.
"We thought so too. After that, management went back and reviewed all the footage and saw the subtle signs of the guys protecting I.N. or even just feeling uncomfortable, " Han answered.
"OK enough about that, the guys want to invite you over for dinner," Han said with a cheer in his voice.
"Sure, I'd love to, but I don't want to get you in trouble," She said, sounding a little concerned.

"you wont, it was the guys idea. They loved having you around, plus Felix really wants you to try his brownies," Han said, laughing

"Ok, I'll come. Just give me a time," Sterling replied, feeling a bit excited.

"The car will get you at 6 pm ok" Han said before saying goodbye

6pm couldn't come any faster. She was just finishing getting ready when her mother called her
"The cars here," her mother yelled up the stairs.
"Coming," Sterling yelled back.
As she walked down the stairs, she was met by one of the managers.
"Ms Park, you look nice," he said as he opened the car door.
"Thanks," she replied as she slid in the back.
"Um, hi," Ryu said, surprised.
"What the hell bitch what are you doing here?" Sterling asked shocked
"Um well the managers called and asked if I would like to have dinner with the boys and you" she replied happily.
"Suprise" she added.
"They told me your coming to"
"Wait, how," Sterling asked as they drove along
"I'll tell you when we get there" Ryu laughed.

The girls laughed and chatted the whole drive there. As the driver was pulling into the underground car park Sterling spotted Han.
"Sterling, your here finally" he yelled as the driver opened their door.
"How long were you waiting?" Ryu asked
"I bet since I left to get you ladies" the manager laughed as he held the elevator door open.
"Well I wanted them to be safe" Han laughed as he and Hyunjin got in behind the girls. Sterling couldnt help but notice the looks between Ryu and Hyunjin, she knew that little smile her friend gets.

"so here we go" the manager said as he opened the door to the guys dorm.

"sterling" I.N shouted as they walked in the door, almost knocking the girl down. 

"Hi I.N, hey guys, how are you all?" Sterling said as she walked in the room with the youngest still attached.
"I.N leave her alone, we're good, how about you?" Chan said laughing as both girls sat on the couch.
"Dinners almost done, Han grab the plates and set the table up please," Lee know said as he walked out of the kitchen.
"Mmm, it smells so good," Ryu said, looking at the dishes being placed.
"Sterling, sit here, ryu next to you, then hyunjin," Felix said, sitting down opposite. Hyunjin blushed as he sat down, making Ryu giggle. 
The girls had an amazing night, they played games, shared funny stories, changbin tried to deadlift Felix, which ended up in him, dropping him, making everyone laugh.
"The cars here to take you girls home" Chan said sadly
"Oh, well it's been fun, thank you guys do much for the night." Sterling said as they left. Han and Hyunjin walked the girls down to the car.
"I dont want you to leave"Han said sqeezing Sterling tight.
"Me either but you have rehearsals tomorrow" Sterling said as she squeezed him back.
"Come on Ryu..." Sterling turned to say to her friend but was gobsmacked to see her kissing Hyunjin
"RYU" she yelled making them both blush
"Sorry, come on let's go" ryu said getting into the car as Han and  Sterling stood there wide eyed mouths open.
"Hyunjin, what" Han stuttered making the taller one blush more and hide his face.
"Let's go" Sterling said as she got in the car
"Oh and Hyunjin. Break her heart I'll break your legs" she added laughing as both boys smiled and waved them goodbye.
"Care to explain" Sterling said
"Well, after the concert, he got my number somehow and called me" Ryu replied
"Han" Sterling said smiling.
"Please don't say anything, I heard you and Han got into trouble over the park pictures and I don't want Hyunjin to do the same" Ryu pleaded.
"I won't say anything, but please be careful" Sterling said smiling at her friend.
"I dont know why You and Han aren't together, Hyunjin is always telling me about how Han goes on about you" Ryu laughed.
"How do you know we're not" Sterling laughed
"Ok" ryu replied
