Small remark of this chapter: If you happen to be one of the people that have some major problem with the original 'Bite Me' choreography I suggest you don't read this chapter. Because this chapter is not tolerating of anyone who has a problem with the hot ass women that took the stage with Enha. Thank you very much.

It hadn't been more than halfway into the new promotion period of the boys when they had started to act weird. Becoming quite tight-lipped and quiet whenever they were in their dressing room before a music show recording. The usual loud speaking and fight for the good lunch had disappeared as they would just sit around and be quiet while scrolling through their phones. Not that the scrolling through phones never happened, it was just more often and more quiet than usual.

Perhaps it was due to my fairly young age that was equal to majority of the boys, but they had easily found their ways around talking kindly to me in my time as an intern in their staff team. It was probably most likely because I worked alongside their social media manager and had been given the Instagram to control. Sunoo had immediately found it fascinating and would often be looking over my shoulder whenever I was preparing a new post or scheduling a reel to be posted.

It had also been mainly through Sunoo that the other boys had dared to start befriending me. I didn't know what Sunoo had said about me, but it had happened quite quickly that they had started to joke around with me, and watching my work closely. Often complimenting me on the photos or editing I did on their stories or reels. 

The befriending of the boys hadn't made it weird that they had ended up inviting me to the dorm one free evening admist their promotions. No clue as to why they had done it, even wen they know I'm technically not allowed to. But weeks and days of pestering me had led to me rushing to their dorm with enough take out food for them to be stuffed for days. Hopefully. (consdering that their appetites had declined alongside the noise in the dressing room)

Upon knocking at the dorm door I was quickly pulled inside without any chance to see who had opened the door or pulled me inside. I only saw the back of the person walking into the kitchen as I slipped out of my shoes.

With a heavy sigh I eventually followed into the kitchen, figuring that was where the rest of the boys were. Sure enough, upon entering the kitchen I was immediately faced with the seven boys dully sitting around their dining table. Almost looking like I had done something wrong.

"Alright, speak," I sighed and placed the food on the table, "and eat at the same time."

"I'm not hungry," Sunoo quickly shook his head.

"Bullshit, eat," I urged and glanced over my shoulder out towards the rest of the dorm, "and make it quick before your manager finds me here and I get fired."

"What do you think of the choreography?" Niki spoke up and I glanced at him as he looked through one of the bags I had brought with food, picking a box for himself.

"Which one?" I frowned, straightening up and folding my arms over my chest.

"Sit down, will you?" Heeseung murmured as he reluctantly picked a box of food for himself as well. I glanced at him before picking a chair and sitting down at the end of the table, looking back down to Niki as I awaited his answer.

"For 'Bite Me'," Niki clarified and I just shrugged, "do you like it?"

"It's nice," I nodded, "the girls are incredible nice."

"But do you like the choreography?" Jay sighed heavily and looked down towards me as I casually slid a box of food over towards Sunoo and Sunghoon.

"Send a box down to Wonie as well," I murmured and gave Heeseung a box before looking back down towards Jay, "it fits the song and concept nicely. Doesn't it? I quite like it."

"Is there anything wrong about dancing with the girls?" Sunoo questioned as he hesitantly opened his box.

"I wouldn't say s- is this about dancing with the girls?" I questioned in disbelief as the boys all went quiet.

None of them moved an inch for a few good seconds. They only seemed to glance amongst one another until the silence eventually was broken.

"Fans have been sending LED trucks to the building and mails about not liking the dance and that we should change it," Sunghoon admitted eventually and I nodded quietly.

"And how many of the fans did that? All of them or just some?" I frowned and leaned my chin in my palm as I looked down towards him.

"Well... a lot of the comments I've seen in English doesn't mind it, but I think a lot of... national fans might mind it," Jake hesitantly admitted as Jay quickly nodded in agreement.

I glanced between the boys, one at a time. Trying to figure out of it was the whole truth I had gotten so far. It seemed so. Their main bother was that a group of fans didn't like the choreography and from what I've come to learn they're all immense people pleasers. Or at least fan pleasers. They just want their fans to be happy and healthy, and by them knowing they had hurt the feelings of a certain group of fans was absolutely destroying them.

"I don't think you should let it bother you," I announced and they all looked to me in either confusion or shock, "it's your career and life, not theirs. If they can't accept you boys experimenting with your sound and concept as artists, then I suppose they're not real fans. Fans support because of the music and talent, not just because you're desireable or whatsoever."

"But they don't like the choreography I made," Niki pointed out and I shrugged.

"So... not real fans if they have a problem," I excused and he just frowned, "my point is, if they're really your fans they would be by your side and defending you towards such things. The only things they won't defend you in is serious problematic doings. That's how fans work, you're precious to them until you do something that actually hurts them. Dancing with a girl or woman is not something that actually hurts them. The people that get hurt by you boys dancing with someone of the other gender needs to get off their high horse and realize as a fan they support the decision or that they're just there because of how handsome and desireable you boys might be to them."

"So, we shouldn't care?" Heeseung questioned and I immediately shook my head.

"Niki choreographed part of the song, didn't he?" I questioned and all the boys immediately nodded, "if anything fans would focus on that and praise him for it. Which I'm sure there's loads of fans doing at the moment. Ignore the delusional people and focus on the ones that actually support you."

"Thank you..." Sunoo trailed off with a small smile, "we've been overthinking it a lot."

"I know you do," I assured in amusement before quickly standing up from my chair, "now I should go before I lose my internship. Call or text me if there's anything else, otherwise we can talk about it tomorrow at work. Alright?"

"You don't want any food?" Jay quickly questioned as I was almost out of the kitchen. I stopped up abruptly and shook my head.

"Oh no, I brought it just for you boys. You haven't been eating as much as usual, so just stuff up," I waved it off, earning a few smiles and chuckles from the boys, "I'll see you tomorrow."

"Sleep well," Jungwon chorused after me as the last thing before I was out and slipping my shoes on. Getting ready to rush home before it was discovered I had visited the boys outside of work hours and then even in their own dorm.
