I can hear someone on the other side unlocking the door. The door swings open, revealing Jonghyun, one of the members from my favourite k-pop group.
“Oh, Hello” Jonghyun says, smiling. I have a funny feeling all those stories about him being a player are true…
“Hi, I’m Lillie; I’m the new roommate…” I trail off.
“Come in” Jonghyun says, stepping to the side as I walk in.
“Hyung! Taemin! Our new roommates here!’ Jonghyun shouts out. The rest of SHINee appears from various bedrooms around the apartment.
“Anyeong Haseyo, Lillie Imnida” I say, bowing. They all introduce themselves in turn.
“So I think the best place for you to sleep is in Minho or My room…” Key Trails off.
“Hey, What about my room” Taemin pouts.
“You wouldn’t leave her alone, and we all know what Jonghyun is like” Minho says to him.
“Oh, Okay” Taemin agrees, apparently not noticing the first part.
“How about Keys room, he has the most girl like personality” I seem to have been forgotten in the conversation so I stand listening, not really bothered where I sleep. I take a step back when Taemin waves his arm in front of me.
“Huh?” I say, turning to the five boys again.
“You’re with me! I convinced them I wouldn’t annoy you!!” Taemin says, extremely happy.
“Okay, which room Is it?” I ask Taemin.
“Follow me” I follow him into a large room.
“Minho and Onew are sharing a room and Key and Jonghyun are also sharing a room” Taemin explains before pointing out my bed and leaving me to unpack. I take out my things and place them in the small drawers next to the bed. I take out my drawing books and computer and place them on the small desk also beside the bed. ‘I need a job…’ I think to myself.
“Hey, I know you just got here, but we are going to the studios to practise… Do you want to come?” Taemin asks, hanging off the door with only his head visible.
“Sure” I say, getting up and following him out to the lounge.
We walk out and I hesitantly follow them into their van. Minho drives and I end up sitting next to Jonghyun. Throughout the short drive, the members ask me questions like “What’s your favourite colour?” I answer all their questions until they ask which member is my favourite.
“I don’t want to offend anyone though” I say, wanting to skip the question. I’m relieved when the car stops and Minho says we’re here. They forget about what they asked me and we get out of the van. I follow them into the building, walking beside Taemin. We walk into a large room with one wall made of mirror. I quietly sit down in the corner and watch as they start practising most of their dances. After two hours or so, Taemin flops onto the ground next to me, along with the rest of the members.
“You guys are great at dancing” I say to them, really happy I got to see them dance.
“You should show us how you dance” Jonghyun says, smiling cheekily.
“I don’t know how to dance” I lie, too embarrassed to dance in front of my idols.
“Sure, I’ll believe you for now, but next time your dancing” Jonghyun promises. They get back up after getting a drink and they practise. After a few more hour, their manager walks in. When he sees me in the corner he asks:
“Who’s that?”
“Our new roommate” Onew answers, looking around at his manager.
“Right… You can go home now, you are done for the day” He says before leaving the room.
“Come on then Lillie” Taemin says, taking my hand and pulling me up. We go back to the apartment and they split up, Onew and Jonghyun going to their rooms for a bit. I sit on the couch and Minho and Taemin also come into the room.
“Please Hyung?” Taemin pleads Minho, pouting.
“No, you will win too easily, go find someone else” He says simply and turn away, going into his and Onew’s room.
“But no one else will play with me…” Taemin says to himself, thinking. He turns and sees me on the couch. I start to do as the others did and go to my room but I’m too slow.
“Lillie…”Taemin starts, stepping in front of me, and I stop walking so that I don’t walk into him.
“Umm, what is it?” I ask.
“Do you want to play dance central with me?” He says.
“Taemin… don’t you remember I can’t dance?” I remind him.
“But no one else will play with me” He pouts, using the same tactic he used with Minho. But I’m not used to it as Minho is, and I easily give in.
“I guess a couple of games…” I trail off. Taemin shouts in victory and drags me back to the lounge, turning dance central two on.
