The perfect boyfriend

Chapter 6

Breakfast was rather simple and a bit disappointing, but what did you expect at roughly 5am. The boys had packed their belongings, ate some sandwiches, drank some tea or coffee and off they went. Since it was an early flight they expected a quick entrance and a peaceful quiet begin of the day... but nothing was like that. The airport was filled with camera crew and Carats that woke up early to wave their goodbyes. A nice gesture... surely. Needed? Not really. The boys are always glad to see their fans, they really are... but it was early, rather a bit too early for some of them. Jihoon is one of them. He made sure his mask and cap covered every single bit of his tired and makeup less features. He wanted to be as invisible as possible but being the smallest of the group makes that rather difficult.

They could hear their fans from miles away. The chants echoing through the hallways. They screamed even more when they saw a glimpse of the boy's arrival. ''WOOOOOOOOZZZZZIIIIIIIIIIII. LOOK AT ME WOOOOOOOZIIIIIIII OOPPAAA.'' Is the first thing you could noticeably hear. Second of it were the names of the maknaes. They quickened their pace to the gate. It was simply too early. Sorry Carats. A last goodbye wave and off they went.

Jihoon seated himself next to Soonyoung. He knew he would go to sleep aswell, even if it was a short travel. This was his chance to catch up a little bit of sleep. Behind him were Jeonghan and Jisoo, busy with their ''almost time for lift off ritual'' Jihoon stared outside the small window and Soonyoung was already falling asleep, letting his head rest on Jihoons shoulder. Luckily, Jihoon had packed his neckpillow and fell asleep rather quickly aswell.

2 hours later, the plane landed. Soonyoung had held hands with Jihoon during their sleep. This was something Soonyoung did more often, he likes that sort of comfort... but every member had his own ways of comfort. Seungkwan likes to sleep cuddle and Hansol mainly has his blankets over his head while holding it secure. Junhui and Minghao like a little talk before sleeping, the youngest member just needs a lot of space. The weird habits of the thirteen boys who are used to each other, like they are family and adapt to all these uses.

Luckily, the trip home went a little bit smoother. As soon as they entered the dorm, a few of them flee to their bedrooms but Soonyoung put everyone to a halt. ''Guys, we have practice in 2 hours okay? I worked out the missing part of our routine in the last one we did.'' He stated and right before everyone nodded and wanted to go their own ways, Jihoon filled in the rest. ''And Hiphop unit. Don't forget to submit your pieces today. I want to finish this song, so I can work on the next one.'' Seungcheol and Hansol sighed. Yes, eventhough Jihoon wrote most of their songs and composed them. They all worked together on the final masterpiece and put their own input in the songs. Hiphop unit is coming with a new song very soon and they need to finish their lyrics so their little member can look over it and put a melody together, even if they already have a melody in mind... nothing is rather finished or final yet.

Jihoon went on his way to his room, to unpack. But also, to pack his belongings for the day. He put his clothing that needed to be washed in the laundry basket and the clean ones back in the closet. He puts his laptop back in the drawer but never forget his USB. The USB contains all of Seventeens finished/unfinished/new and old songlyrics. It also contains ideas and concepts, thoughts that Jihoon had but couldn't speak out. Safe to say. This USB is Jihoons most prized possession. His life, all his work and thoughts on this 1TB portable little thing. Nobody was allowed to touch it. If anyone needed only a small piece of what was on here, he didn't even blink to think and just put that file on another USB.

His bag now consists of some comfortable clothing for dance practice, water, a towel, his USB, his cellphone and ofcourse... the note. Knowing Soonyoung, they will practice till it's perfect which can lead he had to be there till late in the evening. Soonyoung is a perfectionist when it comes to dancing, just as Jihoon is a perfectionist when it comes to composing music and writing lyrics. They both worked very hard for the things they like to do most even if everybody would complain. Jihoon admires it even if he sometimes complains the hardest. He likes to dance, but not in the extinct that he wants to be dead at the end of the day. He will often get him back with recording and bully him then, even if he doesn't make a mistake... Jihoon will think of one. That is the relationship Jihoon has with him members. The members would tease him about his height and his hatred against skinship and aegyo. Jihoon would always find a way to tease them back, even if he sometimes does it a little bit too harsh.
