chapter 2~ dance practice

We both wake up to the blaring alarm on your phone for 6:30 am, and you try to get up, but Lee Know is holding you down.

"Just 10 more minutes. You're so warm, and I don't wanna leave yet."
He grumbles with his attractive morning voice. You sigh and drop back on the bed.

"Minho-ya, we need to get up, or we are gonna be late."

"Y/n, we need to be at JYPE at 9. We've got ages."
You push his arm off and get up from the bed to your vanity to start brushing your hair and as you put it in a neat ponytail you see him getting up from the mirror, sitting on the edge of the bed rubbing his eyes and yawning with his messy hair in his face. Damn, he looks godly. You get up to dress before you can let your thoughts roam any further. You look through your small wardrobe and put on a Mahagrid shirt and some grey tracksuit bottoms, and leave the room with a half-asleep Minho on the bed.

You walk into the kitchen and get yourself some water and baby carrots from the fridge. You eat two before looking at the best before date to see it was two weeks ago. You roll your eyes before throwing them in the bin. You walk out of the kitchen to the living room to see Jisung sitting there staring at the TV that isn't even on. You walk up to him confused as to what he is doing.

"You okay Hanna?"
He jumps a bit, not expecting you to be behind him, and replies with a sluggish, croaky voice.

"Yeah, I just thought if I stared at the remote that's on the coffee table for long enough, it would fly towards me."
You roll your eyes, typical boys. You pick the remote and pass it to him as he flicks through the channels and rests your head on his lap, as he uses one hand to play with your hair, twirling it between his fingers.

"Mmh, your hair smells like lavender."

"Yeah Seungmi-"

"Hey, move your fat ass I wanna sit down."
Seungmin emerges from his room with shorts and a Lowe jumper. He bends down to try to move your legs that are currently taking up the sofa to sit down.

"Please move now or I will sit on your legs and neither of us wants that."

"Speaking of the devil."
You mumble as you lift your legs so that he can sit down. Once settled, you rest your legs onto his lap and he rolls his eyes but doesn't make a move to push them off. One by one, the boys wake up and make their way to the living room. Once it hits 8:30, you yell over the sound of the television and conversations happening in the living room and kitchen since they are both open plan.

"Time to go, it's 8:30 guys."
Everyone groans but nobody protests, until Changbin yells on the top of his lungs.

"LAST ONE TO THE DOOR IS A ROTTEN EGG"
Jisung, Chan, Felix, Jeongin, and Hyunjin run after him, but you can't be bothered. Minho walks up to you gently puts an arm around your shoulder whilst whispers.

"You're sitting next to me in the car if that's okay."
You turn your head to face him and roll your eyes jokingly.

"Okay okay fine, it's not like you would take 'no' for an answer."
Once we are in the parking lot, everyone starts to filter into the van, and you sit between a sleepy Minho, who is snoozing on your shoulder, and Felix who is looking out of the window. So you lean on Minho's head and manage to fall asleep for the 20ish-minute ride to the company. Once we arrive, we split our ways in subunits, so Jeongin and Seungmin go to the vocal practice room. I flop down in the corner of the black sofa against the wall and Jeongin flows suit. You drape an arm around him and ruffle his hair with the other knowing he hates when anyone does that.

"Ah noona, please stop."
As he attempts to lean away from your arm around his shoulder, Seungmin goes into the cupboard next to the piano and pulls out the lyrics of our next come back and hands us each a piece of paper, and you finally let and take the paper. We Jeongin go and take the sheet from Seungmin's hand. You guys spend a few hours practising our lines and backing vocals that have been assigned to us. Soon enough it's lunch and we make our way to the canteen. For some reason, you aren't that hungry- probably the baby carrots from this morning- so you only grab some kimchi and a small serving of japchae. We go over to the other members who are already eating in our designated room. You sit in the spare seat between Chan and Hyunjin and start to eat. All of the members are discussing something to do with basketball which doesn't interest you that much so it gives you a perfect moment to zone out. Whilst chewing your last piece of kimchi, you realise that you have that same headache from yesterday but much worse and this time no bath to subside it. As soon as it starts to make you feel nauseous, you excuse yourself to the toilet as a mere attempt at not alarming anyone by going to the medical room. The nurse sits you down on the medical bed and hands you a cup of water as well as a pill of ibuprofen and tells you to stay as long as you need. You swallow the tablet and sigh, closing your eyes. Not long after, Seungmin peeks through the curtains, and you smile and motion for him to sit down next to you. As he takes the space next to you, he takes your hand into his and it feels warm and comforting.
