Height doesn't matter (K-pop fanfiction)

Chapter 4

They gave me a mission card, I opened it yawning. "Wake up your members from the newest trainees to the oldest. Make sure not to wake any one else up in the meantime." I closed the card and stood up. I went around the Joha's bed to wake her up. Since she was sleeping on the wall side it was hard to reach her. So I decided to tickle her feet. And surprisingly she woke up quite quickly.

"Good morning." I said walking to Sanhee's room. I couldn't be more unlucky she was sleeping while hugging Seora tightly. Well I'll have to do my best. At least she wasn't sleeping on the wall side. I poked her cheeks hoping it would wake her up.

After some time Joha came in "What are you doing?"

"I have to wake them from the newest trainee to the oldest." I answered whispering.

"Let me help you." She went to Sanhee and slowly untied her from Seora. She made her sit up and slightly shook her. She quickly opened her eyes and nodded letting us know that she won't fall asleep again. I took her hand so that she would follow us.

"Jiho wake up" Sanhee whispered in Jiho's ear. She was sleeping with her feet on the pillow and her head hanging from the bed. She woke up the faster than everyone else. We went back to my bed to wake Hana and Ahjin up. They surprisingly woke up quite quickly.

"You all can go change while we are waking the others up." Hana said while marching to the next target. The other five of us took our clothing and gathered in the bathroom to wash our faces, teeth and to change out of our pajamas.

As we finished, Hana came back with the last 4 girls. We let them take place in the bathroom to change while we waited outside of the building so that we could take our breakfast at the training center all together. As they arrived we started walking.

"Where are you going?" A camera asked facing Sooyi.

"We are going to eat our breakfast in the new canteen, that is in our training center. And that canteen works with cards we have, we can only eat when we have those cards with us. You'll see it's really interesting." Sooyi answered, she liked talking and we could see that right away.

Luckily I was allowed to eat marmalade bread with some fruits for breakfast. The camera man followed us around and filmed us while we were eating. It was only after some time that I realized that there were more than one cameraman, to be exact there were 4 of them.

"AAH Don't zoom on me eating. What's that !!" I heard Joha scream on the other side of the table.

To be honest all this was still really new to me. Eating with this many people at one and the same table. I attentively looked at everyone's faces while they finished eating.

"Let's go practice!" Hana exclaimed cheerfully. I stood up and as I turned around I faced a camera that was really close to my face. I screamed out of surprise while the other girls laughed happily at my reaction. We quickly went in the basement to our very own practice room. We practiced yesterday's dance routine. At around 10 a.m a tall woman came in. She looked like she was up to 20 cm taller than I was. She also had a scary look on her face, but she also looked really fierce, as if she could crush anyone only with her eyes.

"She's the dance teacher." Seora whispered in my ear.

Right after her another woman came in she was only a tiny bit shorter, she had a really warm allure. Just looking at her made me feel at peace. She also had a really cut eye smile.

"And she's our vocal trainer." Seora whispered again.

Both of them waited in front of the mirror. They stayed there without moving at all. I didn't know what to do, no one was talking. I was scared to breath to loudly. But after 10 minutes of waiting someone else came in. It was a short haired woman, with a really strong presence. Her aura was seriously no joke. Her eyes were like lasers, she was watching each and everyone attentively. Even though she was already late she didn't walk fast, she took her time to join the other trainers.

"A-and this is our rap trainer." Seora whispered once again but this time so lightly I could barely hear what she was saying.

"During one week, there will be random videos of you that will be put online, and live streams on the v app. You won't be warned when you'll be filmed so be careful. You'll all be training with us but as of now, for today, you'll get training only of what you're in charge of. That way at the end of the day we'll be able to film your introduction videos and put them online." The dance teacher said.

All of the trainers went in a different corner of the room. I walked to the dance teacher and I only realized as I was standing in front of her ... I was the only one. Do you have to stay alone with that scary woman? Well at least I wasn't with the rap trainer that would be way more scarier. I turned around to see where everyone was. Joha an Jaeri were standing in front of the rap trainer. The others were all standing in front of the vocal trainer. Why isn't Jiho in charge of dance? She danced really well at the market... Ah maybe she is better at singing than in dance.

"Are you sure you're all at the right place?" The rap teacher asked. Everyone nodded.

"Don't change your minds and let's go practice." She went in one of the little rooms that were on the side of the dance room followed by our 2 youngest trainees and one camera man. The vocal trainer went in the recording studio followed by, well everyone else and 2 cameras. I remained alone with the scary teacher and one camera man.

"At least you'll have more screen time hahaha." The dance trainer laughed, "Ah and I'm Kim Jihyun, it's our first time meeting after all. And that's why I'm going to ask you to dance on the songs I'll turn on. If you don't know what to do on one song just tell me. I'm doing that to find the most suitable dance style for you." She walked to the radio post and turned on a few songs one after another. I tried my best at doing something acceptable.

She turned on Missy Elliott's 'Where they from' and started dancing a bit to it. After about 10 minutes she showed me the first few dance moves. While I practiced them she searched what to do next and the came back to me. And so on until we had around 1min of dance routine. After that we danced together non stop until everything was on point. This whole process took us and hour or so. But we were still the faster than the others.

I followed Jihyun out of the training center, "We are going to search for clothes we can borrow for your introduction video." She stopped in front of a building that didn't look as if there were any stores in it. We were walking up the stairs. "We are first trying to find some things here. This were our stylists work, so all clothes they created so far are here. If we are lucky we can find some that fit you and your concept." She opened a door and entered.

Without even going in the apartment I could see that it was filled up to the ceiling with lots of clothes. As I walked in I saw all kind of clothes. Everything was there from 80's inspired to futuristic clothes. It was kind of amazing I felt like I arrived in the fashion version of the land of Cockaigne.

I stood in a room and looked closely at the clothes hanging. I slowly turned around and faced a real beauty. I approached and touched the robe. It was made with a soft textile. It was white robe which seemed that could only be worn on a red carpet for and award show. I kept staring at it as I started daydreaming how I would look like in that dress. I would be walking in killer heels alongside the most famous actor of that time. Maybe it'll be Kim Woobin or Lee Soohyuk or even Zo Insung. Reporters would go crazy and already think of the best headline for the article about me and that actor. They would start rumors of us dating, but instead of it ending in a scandal, netizens would comment things like: "How cute", "Good looking couple of the year", "They suit each other so well" and such. But as they find out that I'm not interested they would be sad that it isn't true. But they will still low key ship us and gif every time our eyes meet. Until I arrive at another award show with someone else just as famous and everything will start over again.
