I Just Wanna

Chapter 8

Aj bounced a rubber ball off of the wall. He was laying on the couch of the recording room and thinking hard. 

"What if it started with the duet harmonizing to a couple chords?" Daehoon suggested. Minchun shook his head. 

"That would make it too similar to way too many of our love songs. It would be boring and repetitive." he argued. Daehoon sighed before his eyes brightened up.

"What if-" Aj cut him off. The ball bounced off the wall and he caught it with one hand.

"Dae, let's listen to that song you edited. I'm sorry I never got the chance to listen to it." The blonde said. Daehoon frowned. 

"Shouldn't we be working on the song though? We need to finish it so the others can start using it to set up the show." He said. Aj shook his head and sat up on the couch, his fingers flinging the ball up into the air and catching it.

"The best way to get rid of writers' block is to get your mind off of it." He nodded towards the dark-haired male. "Let's all listen to it." Daehoon looked around the room to his coworkers. His friends. He sighed and reached into his pocket to pull out his flash-drive. Soohyun chuckled. 

"Why do you always keep your flash-drive in your pocket?" He asked with a smile. Daehoon shot him a playful scowl. 

"Just so I don't lose it; I always know where it is." He retorted. He walked over to the computer next to the mixer and insert his drive. He placed his hand on the mouse and clicked around until he opened the file. The song began to play and Aj immediately began to bob his head. He ran into the recording booth and grabbed his guitar. 

"I like how you used a piano for the chord progression." The blonde said when he returned. He began to tune the guitar while the music played. 

"Which chords are these?" He asked. Daehoon looked up at the ceiling, thinking.

"E major, F sharp major, E major, and D sharp minor." He proudly stated from memory. The blonde nodded and began to strum his guitar to the notes. Minchun tapped his chin. 

"Are you suggesting we sample from Daehoon's song? The chords sound really nice on the guitar." He asked. Aj nodded, stopping his strumming.

"Definitely. I believe this song is about as perfect as we can get." He replied. Daehoon grinned but put his hands up. He pointed to Aj.

"Aj's the one who made the song; I just dabbled with it a bit." He said. The blonde shook his head.

"Oh please. I gave you a melody and some chords. You made a song-"

"A song that was based on your hard work." Daehoon countered. "Stop being humble, Aj. There aren't any girls here you have to impress." Just as his sentence finished, Sulli opened the door to the recording room and peeked her head in.

"Speak of the devil..." Minchun muttered.

"Hey losers. Mr. Lee wants to see all of you. Except for you Aj. You need to stay here and finish tutoring Taeyeon." She said in her professional voice. Aj could tell Mr. Lee was really working her. She gave him a half-hearted smile and closed the door behind her.

"She totally likes you." Soohyun said once she left the room. Minchun and Daehoon nodded.

"More like she's totally in love with you; did you hear how bitter she sounded when she mentioned Taeyeon?" Daehoon laughed at his statement. Minchun, who had been standing next to Aj, patted the blonde's shoulder.

"Guys give him a break. He's totally in love with Taeyeon." He gave Aj a suggested smile and elbowed the male. "And it looks like she's been giving you the googly eyes too, yeah?"
