"3, 2, 1 and finish!" The choreographer calls. BTS all sigh in unison. They break from their end pose and start stretching their muscles.
"You know, even if we have a new comeback, it doesn't mean our choreography has to get harder." Taehyung states, partly with a grin, party with a grimace.
"Gotta keep on improving ourselves," Hoseok counters with a smile. "Besides, I don't think this choreography is nearly as hard as Dope."
The members roll their eyes as they get their waters and sit down, exhausted. They half-heartedly listen to their choreographer about pointers and getting rest before their MV shooting.
There's a knock on the door before Nana pokes her head in with a smile. "Hello, I hope everyone is decent!" She straightens up before opening the door all the way to let herself in. "I brought snacks for everyone," she holds up a plastic bag.
The boys scramble up, quickly after hearing about food. "I know you're supposed to be on a diet before comebacks, so I just brought fruit."
"You're an angel sent from heaven, I swear." Jimin praises before looking into the bag.
Jungkook is the last of them to come over and crowd around the snacks and Nana notices. She looks up at him and briefly flashes him a sheepish smile before engaging in the conversation about elephants that Taehyung somehow got into.

They eight of them walk back to the dorms, tired from dance practice. The cool air feeling nice on their hot, sweaty skins. Jin and Namjoon complain about how hard the choreography is in the very front of the group. Yoongi and Hoseok calmly walk next to each other, obviously tired from the practice and Tae, Jimin, Jungkook, and Nana all walk in the back, chatting along.
"Just a few months before our comeback," V says, excitedly. "I wonder how everyone's hair will change."
"I don't know, but I hope I'll have a bright hair colour again. I liked my red hair." Jimin smiles.
"If they bleach your hair anymore, you'll probably end up being bald," Jungkook snickers.
"That's not nice, Kookie!" Jimin whines. He slaps Jungkook on the arm and quickly uses Nana as a human shield so Jungkook can't hit him back. He childishly stick his tongue out at the younger.
"How are you two years older than me?" Jungkook rolls his eyes.
"I'm not a shield, Jimin, but I'll protect you from this big baby." Nana laughs and gives Tae a high-five while Jungkook gives her an offended look.
"I hate you all," Jungkook mumbles. He slows down his steps so he's behind everyone, done with their teasing.
The moon is bright and it illuminates off his members, but he's drawn to how Nana shines just a bit brighter than the rest.

Jungkook wakes up to a silent house. It's odd, considering there's six other grown men who cause a lot of trouble. He reaches for his phone, double checking the date to making sure it's an off day for them. It is. He sets his phone back down and contemplates going back to sleep, but his mind isn't tired anymore.
He ungracefully rolls out of bed to go to their kitchen in search of food.
He gets out a bowl and reaches for the cereal on top of their fridge, almost dropping it as a voice scares him.
"Good morning," Nana calls.
"What are you doing here? You scared the shit out of me," Jungkook asks.
"Eomma wanted me to hang out with you guys since it's an off day and she's busy with Tae Hee," Nana shrugs. "But I guess everyone else went out already."
