Chapter Nineteen

Jimin's POV

"I can't believe I'm actually doing this," I sigh as I take out my bag, pillow and sleeping bag out of the trunk.

"It will be fun! Plus you'll be able to meet my friends from my old school," Jia says walking over to Jisoo oppa giving him a big hug.

"I'll pick you both up Sunday morning then," oppa opens his arms indicating for a hug from me too.

I roll my eyes jokingly but went in for a hug anyway.

After that he was off.

Jia led the way to Hansol's front door. She knocked 3 times before the giant Mingyu answers the door.

"Come on in," he opens the door as wide as it goes.

"That convenience store beside your house is quiet flash," Jia comments as she walks in. "The flower stand is pretty."

"Thanks," Mingyu says shutting the door. "We own it." He then leads us through the small dark hallway and into the living room.

Jia and I looked around amazed.

They're actually well off, damn. How much money does their convenience store earn? Every other piece of furniture and decoration was either wooden or glass. The couches were a nice wooden colour, in a perfect 'v' formation facing towards the tv.

"Finally, you're here!" Jungyeon comes in through a glass door from across the room and gives me a hug.

I was so taken aback from her action that I forgot to hug her back.

When she let go she looked at my slightly shocked face. "Oh you're not Jia are you?" She looked embarrassed.

Jia giggles beside me.

"Well anyway," Mingyu starts making his way to the door Jungyeon came from. "Just leave your stuff here and come outside."

We did as told and followed him out. Everyone was already there, the ones who were originally invited (Jia and her group from HPAS), the ones who invited themselves (Wonwoo and his friends) and the ones forced to come (me), plus Yunhee and Mina. I was not about to spend my weekend without my best friends. Sure Jia was there but she had her group. I didn't want to feel too out of place.

The backyard was probably twice as big as their living room. Off to the left was a stony path which led to a small sitting area with comfy brown seats, matching the couches inside. On the right was a swimming pool and hot tub. The rest of the place was green grass.

I went over to Yunhee and Mina who were sitting on the brown seats by themselves.

"Performing art boys are quite attractive." Mina says as she eyes Jia's old schools buddies. They were on the grass doing god knows what. Jungyeon and Jia just laughed along with them.

"I think the boys from our school are still better looking." Yunhee states. "Those performing art boys are kinda weird. They're so overly energetic."

Jia's POV

"Well can you do this," Minghao started doing his finger dance.

"No but can you do this," Seokmin suddenly takes out a tangerine from his pocket. He then starts peeling it while he danced around.

Jungyeon and I just laughed at the two being their childish selves.

Meanwhile Vernon and Seungcheol were doing a freestyle rap battle.

"I've missed them," Jungyeon whispers over to me.

"Yeah me too," I admitted. I then checked the time. "It's almost 7. The show will start soon."

"You're right." Jungyeon stands up and so do I. She goes over to Vernon interrupting his rap about his dad being Leonardo DiCaprio. "Let's get everyone inside, the show's starting soon."

Vernon agrees.

As soon as we got everyone inside and settled in front of the tv, the MC had already introduced the first act.

I sat awkwardly between Vernon and Jeonghan.

The first quarter of the show took an hour and a half. A lot of the waiting around between performances were edited out but it was still a lot. By the time we got through half way of the second quarter Chan had fallen asleep.

"Do you think we should stop and do something else?" Vernon leans closer to me. "I mean our performance will be shown tomorrow. That's all we want to watch really."

I nodded trying not to yawn.

Vernon then stands up and switched the lights on. "Should we do something else?"

The group let out a sleepy "yes" in unison causing Chan to wake up.

"I've got something to brighten up everyone's mood." Wonwoo says as he goes over to his stuff and takes out several bottles of soju in different flavours.

"Yes!" Jeonghan goes over and gives him a pat on the back.

"These kids may not be so bad after all," I hear Seungcheol say from behind me. He then goes over to Wonwoo and they all seemed to become best friends on the spot.

This is not a good idea.

"Spin the bottle, kiss, truth or drink version!" Jungyeon announces.

Junhui stands beside her and shakes his head.

"Everyone gather around and sit on the floor." She ignores him. "But of course being the only couple here," she takes Junhui's hand, "we will be your hosts."

"Couple?" Mina and Yunhee whispered in shock beside me.

"Everyone in a circle let's go," Jungyeon made a circle motion with her hands.

Everyone somehow just went with what she said.

"Let the games begin," she smirks.
