It was a well-known fact that Mingyu was the groups' punching bag.
The giant puppy could never catch a break.
It was also a well-known fact that Bella was the kindest person in the world.
Even though she knew it was all jokes and good fun, it broke her heart every time he got the shit end of the stick.
Being the absolute angel that she is, every time Mingyu got picked on, she'd would grab his hand and squeeze it. If he told a joke and no one laughed, she'd laugh at it. If he got told to go away, she'd cling onto him and tell him she wanted him to stay. If he said something but no one was listening, she'd always acknowledge him.
Mingyu hardly ever voiced how much he appreciated her, but he truly did. She was probably his best friend in the group.
On a particularly cold day, he forgot to pack his jacket while they were doing promotions for a couple of days in Japan. Everyone, as always, teased him and made jokes about how bad he is at remembering simple things. Bella, on the other hand, cuddled him until they got a small break between appearances. In the fifteen minutes they were waiting, she snuck away to a store down the road and bought him a big, warm coat.
"You didn't have to, I'm fine. I'm a big guy, I have a lot of body heat."
"Just put it on, Mingyu."
"Okay...thank you."
"You're welcome. Don't forget next time."
The members weren't sure they'd survive if they didn't have Bella. Sure, they had Seungcheol who could step it up and be the dad when necessary, but there was just something about Bella that no one could compete with, no matter how much they tried. Every time they travelled, especially out of the country, she packed an entirely separate suitcase filled with extra clothes, sanitary products and extra toiletries just in case.
Everyone loved and appreciated her so much. So should you. Don't sleep on the best co-leader of all time!
