Amber POV:

The meeting between the guys and Seo-jun didn't go THAT bad...I mean they threatened him, lectured him about how to take care of me, said he should always bring me flowers when we are going on a date, etc etc...*sigh* I told ya, too over-protective with me.

We were gonna have a comeback soon and we were all very busy, we were producing, recording, creating the dance, learning the dance, thinking of positions and so on. I was also gonna release a new single called 'High On Life' (A/N: It's a song by Martin Garrix feat. Bonn. Check it out!) I was the most busy out of the members. I had to work on the Stray Kids comeback and my own single. Since this song has a lot of powerful beats, my choreographer oppa suggested we put stunts in the choreography...okay...I could hurt myself, but it's fine. Idc about the members reactions anyway. They might not let me out of the house for a year...oh well, I'll sneak out. As a great mind once said, "Always look for the solutions, never look for problems"...who said that you ask? Idk I'm ain't Wikipedia. I saw it on Pinterest and it sounded nice so...I used it.

I was learning how to do the stunts from a professional...I don't understand anything...oh well. I'm gonna die! Woo!

I tried the first trick being a simple forward cartwheel sort of thing...idk the name, I didn't pay attention to that part. It was pretty simple to catch and be able to do in a choreography. The next was a front flip for which they got in this...soft mat kind of thing, like a mattress so I wouldn't hurt myself. I tried many times and when I was able to land it perfectly, they decided to remove the soft mattress and try like that. I was nervous because I could hurt myself if I didn't land it and that would affect the Stray Kids comeback. I guess the nervousness got to me because I ended up NOT landing it and fell on my left shoulder. I stood up and just, shook it off. (Shake it off, yeah shake it off~ ...I am a Taylor Swift fan don't judge). Anyways, I tried the flip again this time trying to be less nervous...IT WORKED! OMG! anyways, I practiced for a while longer till they called an end to the days session. When they left I had sometime till the other members came for the Stray Kids comeback dance practice so I decided to try the front cartwheel thing (A/N: I think it's called a front walkover or something like that but idk. I have no idea about stuff like this.)

I raised my hand up and suddenly my left shoulder hurt really badly, probably from the front flip fail. It hurt really bad but I tried to do it despite the fact I felt my hand was gonna fall off and I succeeded! Now it's just the Stray kids dance...it has a lot of hand movements...oh god! I'm dead. I played that music and started doing the dance routine as perfect as I could (pretty darn near perfect y'all) and ended up with a dead shoulder. Oh my god! When my members came they were stretching but I already did so I was thinking on how I was gonna dance without messing up this time. When they were done we started the music and everyone got into positions and mid-dance my shoulder hurt really bad...like really bad. I tried to dance despite it but my expression gave away and the step didn't come out well. They stopped the music since I somewhat messed up and I fell on my knees gripping my left shoulder. "Are you alright?" Lix oppa asked. "Yeah, yeah I'm fine...just hurt my shoulder in my solo practice. I'm fine, nothing to worry about" At this point I was wondering who I was trying to convince, the boys or myself?

I ignored the worried look on everyone's face and started the music, as if by military command all of them went into places and started the dance. I was able to do it well but my shoulder hurt so bad. I should not have shaken it off, dammit.

After practicing for a while, the guys were gonna go home. I had a bit more work so I said them I'd be back in a while. They just agreed and left me alone. I went into the recording studio to practice singing 'High on Life'. It had been at least 2 hours trying to perfect the vocals for this song and then I packed my stuff and went home to the dorm. 

Channie oppa said me to show my shoulder which was hurting in practice, "Oppa~ it's fine! Nothing is hurting anymore okay?" Lies...it hurt a lot but I couldn't bother them with my stupid shoulder injury just because I couldn't do a front flip. "Ambi~ show me your shoulder. I can see through your eyes. They're your weak point when you try lying. We can see through your eyes what you're feeling." he said sternly...fine, "Fine" I said and showed my shoulder. He started asking questions about where it was hurting etc etc. After that he wrapped a bandage around it and said, "You will not leave the house for the next foive years. That is final" "Huh!? F-five years!? Oppa~ I'm fine! It's a small injury, so what? It happens to everyone. Chill man" I said as I got(7) up and left the room into my room to take a shower.

I ate my dinner after showering and then fell asleep as soon as my head touched the pillow. It felt so good to be able to sleep that night for some reason. I have no idea...why though?

-Next day(6)-

I again went for my solo practice earlier than the others and today I was able to do everything perfectly without hurting myself! WOOO! Anyway, I'm barely getting time to meet Seo-jun. I really wanna meet him but I can barely go home at time in the night and I have to leave early in the  morning. I worked the entire day, texting Seo-jun any chance I got to text him. He would come online just as I went offline. I felt bad I wasn't able to talk to him but being an idol has it's disadvantages.
