The eight hybrids looked at her, no one daring to say anything.

"Are you guys just going to stare at me, or will you say something?" Y/N asked, her right eyebrow raised. 

The hybrids looked at each other, some motioning their hands to the others saying, 'You say it.' The seven of them all then nodded their heads at each other and turned to look at Chan, eyeing him. Chan's eyes widened as he mouthed a 'Why me?' Minho blinked continuously while Changbin looked at Chan with wide eyes and his head tilted. 

"Are you guys okay? You look like you're having seizures," she said, crossing her arms.

"Fine, he asked us questions and wanted answers that were completely truthful," Chan started, a little pout evident on his mouth as he angrily eyed the rest of the hybrids.

"And...?" Y/N added, trying to get more information out of him.

"And, if we didn't answer truthfully he would..." Chan's words trailed off as he looked at the rest of the hybrids, unsure if he was meant to say it.

"He would what, Chan? Don't look at them, look at me," Y/N said, cupping his face to make him face her.

"He would use that device and keep it on until we said the whole truth," Chan whispered, looking down.

"He did what?!" Y/N gasped, her grip tightening along Chan's jaw.

"You're hurting me..." Chan mumbled, biting his lip to not make any sound from the pain.

"Sorry..." Y/N whispered, "we're never going back there again." As if Joowon had heard, she received a call from him at that exact moment. She answered the phone reluctantly and bit her lips, trying to contain all the many swear words she wanted to say to him.

"What?" she angrily mumbled.

"Just to let you know, we have an appointment scheduled for day after tomorrow at 12:30pm," he replied, typing something onto a keyboard.

"We're not-" she started, but was interrupted by Joowon.

"If you don't come, I'm afraid we will have to come to you and drag you here ourselves," he said, the clicking on his keyboard stopping.

Y/N's grip tightened against the phone. It took all of her power to not cuss at him and go there herself and beat him up. 

"Fine," she said, ending the call.

Seungmin looked at her in concern, "What did he say...?"

"We have to meet him again day after tomorrow. I don't know what his problem is," she complained, running her hands through her hair in frustration.

"Hey, it's alright..." Hyunjin said, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder.

"Yeah, we'll be... fine," Felix spoke, while looking down. But, who was he trying to kid? Every single one of them knew that none of them were going to be fine.

"Alright, so now that we know he'll use that thing to hurt us, we just have to say the truth. The whole truth," Jisung said, his gaze moving past everyone.

"That means... we all have to tell each other everything," Changbin said, looking at Minho.

"If we don't tell each other our secrets, we'll know through Joowon, and that's not going to turn out well," Minho said, agreeing with Changbin, who just nodded his head in return.

"Alright, but what type of secrets...?" Jeongin asked, hoping it wouldn't have to do anything with his feelings towards Y/N.

"It has to be about everything. About love, hate, friendship, enemies... murder..." Seungmin replied, earning a nod from Chan. Jeongin bit his lips, knowing that this was the time she would know about how whipped he was for her.

"Let's sit down...?" Y/N asked, making her way towards the living room and sitting down. The hybrids followed her into the room and made their way to where they wanted to sit. Jeongin sat furthest away from Y/N and Changbin sat next to Jeongin, knowing how scared the youngest one was about confessing his secrets.

Hyunjin and Jisung sat down on either sides of Y/N, while Felix sat down next to Hyunjin and Seungmin sat down next to Jisung. Chan and Minho sat down parallel to each other, but adjacent to the couch where the five of them were sitting.

"Who's going first...?" Jeongin gulped, looking around nervously.

"Well... who has the most secrets...?" Y/N asked, looking at everyone.

No one dared to speak up. This whole 'game' could either strengthen or break their bond between everyone. The nine all sat in silence, debating whether or not they should volunteer to go first.

"You know what, I'll just go first," Y/N said, making everyone nod.

"So um, go ahead, ask me anything," she said, biting her lips in anticipation.

"Have you ever had a boyfriend?" Minho asked, causing Chan to throw a paper at him. Seungmin and Jeongin glared at Minho, while Hyunjin, Changbin, Jisung and Felix smirked at his question.

"What? That's a good question to ask," Minho mumbled, dodging the paper by an inch.

"No, I've never dated before," she replied, earning a nod from Minho.

"Have you ever been in love?" Jeongin asked, fiddling with his fingers nervously.

"What's up with these questions?" Chan asked, lightly pushing Jeongin.

"Yeah..." she whispered, looking down. This caused everyone to look at her in shock. Even Chan was now interested.

"With who?" Jeongin added.

"Um..." she looked at him and shook her head.

"That's not important," she replied, fiddling with her fingers.

"No, it is," Felix said, holding onto her hand.

"Well... I am currently in love... with..." she said, looking down.

"With?" Seungmin asked.

"It's not one person..." she said, causing Minho to smirk.

"Oh wow..." Changbin said, trying to process the information.

"So who are they?" Jisung asked, smiling politely, "you don't need to answer that if you don't feel comfortable."

"I'm not going to answer this just now. You guys will find out soon enough," she said, a small smile tugging at her lips. Hyunjin, Felix and Minho whined, wanting to know more, while the rest nodded their heads in understanding. Jeongin's heart hurt at what she said, but he knew that he couldn't control who she liked, and he accepted it. As long as she was happy, he was too.

"I think that's enough questions for Y/N," Chan said, causing them to nod.

"Then it's your turn Chan!" Minho smirked, causing Chan's jaw to drop. "Minho's right, it's your turn then," Changbin said.

"Why are all of you ganging up on me today?" Chan whined.

"We're not ganging up on you! You're the oldest, so you have to take responsibilty," Hyunjin snickered.

"Whatever," Chan mumbled, rolling his eyes.

"So, Chan, do you like Y/N romantically?" Minho said, a small smirk on his face.

He knew damn well what the answer was. In fact, they all knew.
