~Gaeul's POV~

I had just finished getting my hair and makeup done when I looked at my phone. I had a missed call from Sunghyun from IN2IT. Immediately feeling bad as well as flustered, I pressed the dial back button as I plopped down on the couch in our waiting room. I heard the ringing stop but nobody speak.

"Hey, Sunghyun oppa, sorry for-" I started to speak when suddenly he shouted.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, causing me to pull the phone from my ear to protect it. I started laughing.

"Thank you, oppa." I snickered. "But how did you know?"

"I'm just great like that." He replied.

"Right." I scoffed. "How could I question you?"

He snickered causing me to too.

"When do your promotions end?" He suddenly asked.

"Today is our last day, why?" I asked.

"That's what I thought." He replied. "I wanted to know if you wanted to hang out tomorrow? I want to take you out somewhere for your birthday."

I smiled widely and tried not to make a weird noise. I looked over as my members then came to mind.

"Let me ask my members." I told Sunghyun.

"Of course." He replied.

I held the phone down and looked around at everyone who was looking at me after being referred to.

"Do you guys mind if I go out with a friend tomorrow?" I asked them. "We don't have anything planned right?"

My members all shared looks.

"We want to take you out for dinner for your birthday so can you be home before 4?" Rin asked.

I held the phone back up to my ear. "Can we be done before 4?"

"Of course." Sunghyun replied.

I pulled the phone away again. "Yes." I told my members.

"Then sure, go." Rin said.

I looked at my manager. "Sure, but stay out of the spotlight." He said.

I smiled giddly before putting the phone back up to my ear.

"I can go!" I exclaimed.

"Great." Sunghyun said. "I'll pick you up at 10, sound good?"

"Its perfect." I replied. "See you then."

"See you then." He repeated. "And happy birthday."

"Thank you." I snickered. "Goodbye."

"Bye." He said.

I ended the call and slid down the couch, resting my head on the back, letting out a big screech.

"Who was it, unnie?" Mini asked.

I looked up to see them all looking at me in anticipation, as if they thought I was just talking to my crush.

"Sunghyun oppa." I muttered.
