We Were Too Young For This

Trainees.

During the meeting, it was explained that they were forming a boy group that would debut with some of the other artists signed under GMM in their new sub company called Riser Music. They planned to debut two boy groups from scratch, one will be from their upcoming project alpha, and the other one will be them. They wanted to give creative control to their group in terms of the look they wanted to present themselves as, the songs they would perform and the style of choreography they wanted to perform under creative guidance of course.

The other boy group was going to be micromanaged to perfection, The dynamics and even the name of the group had already been decided. They were an experiment. Should it not work out, some of them could just debut as actors, TV presenters, and so forth. They warned them that it was going to take a lot of hard work, time, and a lot of practice. They only had 10 months, which was when Riser Music was going to be launched. They were also supposed not to tell anyone about this as it was a secret project.

In reality, they had less than 10 months to be ready. They had less than 6 months to figure shit out, because by the time Riser Music launches they need to have their first mini album recorded, containing at least 8 songs and one MV filmed for their title track. Not to mention all the promotional posters and photocards taken. They were taking the K-pop industry road with Thai roots embedded in it.

Gemini wasn't sure how this was going to work, but everybody seemed to be in agreement and looked excited, so he just agreed with them. With the amount of work he had to put in, it seemed like he had to cut off all his extracurricular activities and forget about applying to medicine. There was no way he would be able to do all of this and work on his portfolio.

"Well, I am glad everyone is in agreement. We will leave you all to be acquintated with each other. Some of you here already know each other. Maybe you can discuss your group dynamics and suggestions for what you want to name your group. You can stay here as long as you like. If you need food and refreshments, just let Mae Yui know she's going to be your manager from now on. You all have to be here tomorrow at 14h00 to start with vocal lessons." One of the directors said before they left.

Once the directors have left and it was just 8 of them, Satang, Winny and Ford came to greet him with hugs and big smiles and while his eyes scanned for a familiar someone with a sunny smile he felt hands wrap around his waist and he was dragged down and pinned to the floor. As he looked up, a familiar smiling face with crinkly eyes looked down on him.

"Missed me?" Fourth had asked.

"Here we go again." Gemini had heard Ford say, and he could see in his mind's eye as the older roll his eyes.

"Ai'Fot! Get off me." Gemini had said, trying to squirm his way out of Fourth's still unbelievably strong hold.

"Not until you admit you missed me." Fourth had replied with that familiar sly foxy smile of his.

Gemini tried to wiggle and squirm his way out of Fourth's hold but the younger was practically straddled on top of him keeping him caged and in place with his strong thighs and his strong, still surprisingly strong hands pinning Gemini's hands on either side of his face.

"Are they going to be okay? Should we intervene?" Gemini had heard one of his new members, he hadn't gotten time to introduce himself to before Fourth pounced on him ask.

"Nah, let them tire themselves out." He had heard Winny say.

"That’s just how they flirt." He had heard Satang say, which made his ears burn because he doesn't think that's what they were doing. Him and Fourth were not flirting they were just playing around.

"Yeah, it's like a mating ritual they do, one of them is bound to give up sooner or later." He had heard Ford say. He made a mental note to get back at him one of these days.
