"I can't believe we had to talk to CEO-nim about 'proper variety conduct' in sweaty clothes." Kaito sighed, throwing off his shoes tiredly. "Not to mention we did just fine on Happy Together last time."

"That's so true, we didn't mess anything up on Happy Together, why would we mess up a different variety show?" Hyunwoo asked, wanting to collapse on the couch but holding himself back until he took off his shoes too.

"You have to admit, Weekly Idol is different - it's for idols, it's not just a talking show." Taeyang said, followed by Alex.

"As much as I hate meetings, Hyung's right. This is a big deal, especially since we're a new group. They're gonna make us do profiles and dance covers. We'll have to do things that involve talent."

"Talking involves talent." Hyunwoo added, falling onto the pillows of the couch.

"I'm taking a shower, anyone joining me?" Kaito asked, already taking off his shirt.

Hyunwoo made a groan of denial, the noise covered up due to the position of his face into the pillows. Alex set his jacket on the edge of the couch, shaking his head to the offer too. Taeyang gave a little nod, heading towards his room to grab a change of clothes.

"I'm gonna get something to drink, do you want anything?" Alex asked, already pouring himself a glass of water.

"Save me a Cola for when I'm done please." Taeyang asked, Alex giving a little nod. Once he and Kaito disappeared, Alex finished his glass of water and poured another for Hyunwoo, setting it on the coffee table in front of the couch. The younger looked up out of slight confusion.

"Thanks Hyung." he said softly, smiling a little as he sat up. He rubbed his eyes as if waking up from a deep sleep, picking up the glass and then looking around.

"...where's Chen?" he asked.

"Chen...? He went straight to class, remember?" Alex answered. Hyunwoo nodded a bit, taking a sip of water as he remembered Chen always had class Wednesday afternoons.

"Wait, if we're recording on Friday morning won't he have to miss his tutoring class?" Hyunwoo asked suddenly. Alex gave a little shrug, replying, "He'll probably go in tomorrow then."

"Aww..." Hyunwoo sighed, "We were going to go to the park tomorrow."

"You can come with the hyungs and I, we were going to go to the basketball court tomorrow." Alex offered, rummaging through the small mini-fridge for something to eat.

"Just the three of you?" Hyunwoo wondered. Although he wasn't the most sporty guy, it seemed odd to have a basketball game with three people.

"Wonho hyung is gonna come too." Alex added, making Hyunwoo seem a bit confused. "But you can still come, an odd number of people won't hurt. Plus we can just invite a sixth person."

"Even after all the Instagram picture drama?" Hyunwoo asked, making Alex suddenly tense up, walking over towards the bathroom to check if the shower was still running. It was, and Alex sat down so he could whisper.

"I'm not even sure if Wonho hyung knows." he said softly. Hyunwoo's eyebrows knotted, tilting his head with a little smile.

"Oh he knows, Kaito was with him when he posted the photo of them two." Hyunwoo laughed.

"Then why was Kaito so afraid of him being upset about the response?" Alex asked with a soft whisper, nearly jumping when the door of the bathroom opened.

"He's just caring like that." Hyunwoo whispered quickly, turning around and watching Taeyang catch a small towel that Kaito threw him. He made an entertained laugh as he made a little gesture to welcome the two younger members to shower.

Hyunwoo made a smile, gesturing Alex to take a shower first. Alex made an awkward smile, slowly making his way towards the bathroom. He stood a foot away from the door, sighing and stopping himself from looking inside. He took the precautionary measure to let out a serious warning before going in.

"Kaito, if you attempt to assault me for the third time this week I'm not going easy on you."

A laugh came from inside the bathroom, followed by the laughter of Taeyang and Hyunwoo.

Alex just sighed, stepping a foot onto the white tile.
