seungyoon was sitting on his bed and working over some music sheets, when kyungmi suddenly barged in. "what's it?" he asked with a surprised face.

"i have an idea!" her voice sounded almost out of breath, as if she had been running.

"you could've just texted me though." complained seungyoon, who was still thinking about his work.

"we live in the same house, why the heck would i text you?"

they stared at each other for a second and bursted out laughing, until seungyoon was the first to catch his breath. "sorry, i had to."

he patted the space on the bed next to him and kyungmi sat down. "i just thought... it's been a while, why don't we organize a small party or something?"

"a party? where and with who?" asked seungyoon, not quite sure what to think about the idea.

"well, we could do it here or rent a room?"

"eww no, let's rent a room! but okay, who to invite?"

"so far i thought about taehyun, minhyuk and jinwoo?"

seungyoon raised his eyebrows and shot her a questioning look. "but that'll be like a couples' night out, do you really want to do this to our poor jinwoo? shouldn't we at least invite sohee, seunghoon and nayoung? like the old squad united?"

a deep sigh escaped from kyungmi's mouth. "you're right, that's a great idea."

"you don't sound like that though." stated seungyoon in a calm tone.

"it's just...i don't know." she shook her head, as if trying to also shake off some unwanted thoughts, which suddenly worried seungyoon; he would always know immediatly if his best friend wasn't feeling well. "kyungmi, what's wrong?"

"i don't-" her voice broke, when some tears started rolling down her face and seungyoon hugged her tightly, while trying not to start crying as well.

"yoon, can you do me one favour- or rather two?" she wispered between her sobs.

"whatever you want." it's the truth.

"first, can we please do that party?"

"of course."

"second." she remained quiet for a while. "can you please stay here with me for tonight?"

"i didn't even plan on leaving, just sleep here if you want, like in the old days." what did i do wrong, that she believes i might leave her alone in this state. this thought slowly started to engrave in his mind and it was pure torture to him.

that night kyungmi soon fell asleep next to seungyoon, her pillow wet from her tears.

meanwhile seungyoon stayed awake for almost the whole night, while thinking about the girl, that was quietly sleeping next to him.

who was she and what had really happened to her during the past year?

seungyoon wished to find out the answer, but it kept reminding him of a part of his own past. and again it was hanbin.
