CHAPTER 8 - REHEARSALS

CHANYEOL'S P.O.V.

"Shiro, stop eating chocolate with your left hand and play this game with me using both of your hands!" almost a shout, I said to the pale guy beside me.

"Heh? But Shiro is hungry."

"And look to the screen, you're almost winning without looking at the screen. Are you underestimating me? Tss!" I gritted my teeth as I rapidly push combo buttons on the console. My character is dying while Shiro's character have 99%. "And if you're hungry get a real food instead."

"Is Chanyeol-kun saying that chocolates are fake food? Shiro likes Chanyeol-kun, but Shiro doesn't like Chanyeol-kun badmouthing chocolates."

"Badmouthing?! How much do you love chocolate that you choose it over me? Over a human being? Oh?!" My character's HP was depeleted to zero. "I died. Aish!"

It's already nighttime when I look at the time on my phone. I stood up and searched for the switch of the lights. I found it and clicked a button. Baekhyun's power symbol of light glowed on the wall and the lights began turning on.

"Waaahhh! Mabushiii! Shiro's eyes hurt. The sun has finally entered Shiro's fortress, waaahhh--- itai!" I chopped his head using the sides of my hand.

"That's what you get for always staying in the dark." I picked up my things and prepared to leave. "I need to go now. We have rehearsals tomorrow so make sure to get a good night re---" I felt someone holding my shirt.

"Can Chanyeol-kun stay for a little longer?" he said with glistening eyes.

"But---"

"Onegai?"

"O-okay, but only until 8:30 p.m."

"Hai."

BAEKHYUN'S P.O.V.

"Hnnng!" It's five in the morning and all you can see is me stretching and yawning while going to the recording studio for today's rehearsals.

We all assumed that we'll be free for the week because of this sudden comeback but I guess not. But I think it's less stress than promoting here and there nonstop for a month.

"Wasseo? Early as usual," said the guy who came here first. Kyung Soo.

"What are you saying? If I know you've been here for the past thirty minutes vocalizing and rehearsing," I replied as I set up the mic and the headphones.

"Who's that?" We both looked at the door because we heard someone knocking.

"Open the door Kyung Soo-ah. I'll set up my mic."

I heard the door being opened, "A-annyeonghaseyo."

"Yoshiro?" D.O. said in a confused tone.

I looked back while picking up the wire of the mic that I'll use. "Heeeh? Aren't you early this time?" I teased.

"Shiro wants to work hard and join the other members."

I raised a brow, "Shiro?"

"Ah! So-sorry. Shiro--- ah, no," he cleared his throat. "I-I want to give my best and join the other members."

I looked at D.O., "Hear that? I hope that clears your confusion."

"Ah, sorry. I was just... not used to seeing other person here. Usually, for song rehearsals, Baekhyun, Chen and I are the only one he---"

Shiro tilted his head in confusion, I guess, and cut Kyung Soo's words, "D.O.-cchi forgot one."
