SEVENTEEN | SICKFICS - HURTFICS I

Dino | Panic Attack

This is a request from Glazedayhunieee. I hope you'll like it!

It started as a regular practice session. The members of Seventeen were running through choreography for their upcoming comeback. Laughter filled the room, their usual energy bustling. But as the clock ticked closer to midnight, tensions began to simmer.

"Let's try that part again!" Hoshi called, demonstrating the sequence. The rest of the members followed, but a mistake slipped through.

"Come on, guys! You're not focusing!" Mingyu shouted, frustration bubbling over.

"I was trying to keep up with your pace!" Joshua shot back, a hint of irritation in his voice.

"Maybe if you practiced more, we wouldn't have these problems!" DK snapped, his temper rising.

The atmosphere shifted. Members exchanged glances, the laughter replaced with an undercurrent of tension.

"Let's just take a break," S.Coups suggested, attempting to ease the growing conflict.

But Jeonghan, feeling the pressure, blurted out, "Why are we always taking breaks? We need to push ourselves if we want to succeed!"

"Push ourselves? You think yelling at us will help?" Minghao replied, crossing his arms.

As voices grew louder, the playful banter morphed into accusations. "You're always so dramatic, Jeonghan!" Wonwoo said, his voice sharp. "Not everything needs to be a crisis!"

"Dramatic? Look who's talking!" Jeonghan shot back, his eyes narrowing.

"What's happening?" Jun asked, stepping in. "We're a team! We need to support each other, not tear each other down!"

But the damage was done. The argument escalated, each member firing off hurtful comments that echoed in the small room. The laughter that once filled the space faded into a tense silence.

"Stop it everyone!" S.Coups shouted at them.

"Why do you always have to take the lead, S.Coups?" Jeonghan's voice rang out again, a hint of venom in his tone. "You think you're the only one with good ideas?"

"Excuse me? Someone has to keep us organized!" S.Coups retorted, his hands clenched into fists. "You're too caught up in your feelings to see the bigger picture!"

"Yeah, and maybe if you listened to us for once, we wouldn't be in this mess!" Jeonghan fired back, stepping closer, his face flushed.

"Guys, please," Vernon pleaded, desperation in his eyes. "This isn't going anywhere!"

"Don't act like you're innocent, Vernon!" Wonwoo snapped. "You're just as guilty of pushing everyone's buttons!"

Mingyu folded his arms, glancing around the room. "Why are we even arguing? We should be working on our performance! But all anyone wants to do is yell!"

"Maybe if people put in more effort, we wouldn't have to yell!" Joshua shot back, frustration spilling over. "Some of us are trying our hardest, while others just coast along!"

"Coast? You think I'm not trying?" Mingyu countered, his voice rising. "You don't know what it's like to put in the hours and still feel like it's not enough!"

As the accusations flew, the air thickened with tension. Each member stood on the precipice of frustration, their faces betraying their feelings-anger, hurt, and confusion mingling in their expressions.

"Can we just stop blaming each other?" Hoshi interjected, trying to diffuse the situation. "We're all feeling the pressure of this comeback. Yelling at each other isn't helping!"
