Mathematical attraction

Chapter 31

Namjoon's P.O.V.
I strongly wished she'd like it. "All I need is to fix the melody and I'll be done." I sighed passing my hand across my face. What time was it? I looked at the clock. "1 am? I'm sure I can finish this by three." I trusted myself putting my headphones on.

Someone poke my shoulder. "Just go to bed already." JHope hyung said.

I stopped my music and turned around. "I gotta finish this first."

He sat on the computer desk. "What's this? Let me hear."

I handed him my listening aid. "It's Minmin's birthday gift."

He nodded. "A beat? I don't know Namjoon. Would she like this?"

"I hope so, but it comes with this." I handed him my notes.

"Lyrics? Why didn't you record it?" He asked. "Explain to me, because I'm not getting it."

I took my notebook back. "You know she got refused at SM right?"

"Yeeees? And?" He added.

"She loves to sing and she has a great voice. I thought writing a song for her and record it with her would be nice." I finally told him.

His eyes lit up. "Oh! That's so nice! She'll love it!"

No shit hyung. "That's what I'm hoping for."

He listened to it again. "Hmm.. Do you know what style she sings better? Because if it's too fast she might have trouble singing it."

I hadn't thought about that. "I mean.. She sings hyped songs for fun, but maybe a slow one would work better."
I slowed the beat. "I guess I still have more work that I thought."

He did a last listening. "I think you're close to something there. I wanted to ask something else thought. Is she gonna come over for her birthday? Jin hyung wanted to know because we'd plan something."

I sighed deeply. "Problem is Yoongi won't let her come by."

"What? That's not fair! What did she do?" He complained while taking sodas out of the mini fridge and handing me one.

"That's the thing. SHE didn't do a thing. She found some work for the summer doing a play and he's mad she has to kiss the cheek of a guy. We know they rehearsed which gets Yoongi pissed if we bring it up." I answered. "Gotta pass over him to plan this and Minmin wouldn't like that even if the punishment isn't fair." A knock was heard. "Who'd knock at this hour?"

It was Yoongi. "Hey, I know it's late, but can I ask a favor?"

I closed my computer. "Sure what is it?"

"Help me organise a party for Minnie. Please, I suck at this." He asked.

"Didn't you say she wasn't allowed to hang out with us?" Hobi hyung commented.

"Just for that day okay? It's important.. She'd love it." He explained.

And he'll look like the good guy letting her see us. Does he see he does it or is it all a big accident. I still agreed. "Of course I'll help. Just give us some guideline and we'll land a hand."

Weirdly enough, he hugged me. "Thanks a lot. I'll text you okay?"

"Okay?" I mumbled once he left. Now I'd have more than one thing to focus on, but he was right. She'd love it.

Minho's P.O.V.
"Noona, I have a question." Tae asked as we walked outside.

I shrugged. "Sure, go ahead."

"What bands do you like? You never told us." He explained.

I had to admit, he was right. "Well.. Let's see. I respect BigBang a lot, so I'd say BigBang. I don't really stan a particular group. I like some songs of groups. I don't focus on it."

I felt he was struggling with something. "Is there something you like in particular? Except matcha cake. That I know."

I laughed. "Of course I like things. How weird are you? I like books, dramas, movies.."

He smiled. "What kind of movies do you like?"

"I'm mad for Harry Potter! It's really good." I grinned.

"Good to know! Want to stop somewhere?" He proposed.

Yeah.. We had been walking aimlessly. "Anywhere you want."

He pulled me by the wrist. "I know where to take noona then!"

I chuckled following in a jog. "Where?"

"To eat!" He said.

And we did! At a themed restaurant.

It was so great! "Thanks for showing me that place Tae, it's amazing!"

He gave me a boxy smile. "No problem noona! Maybe next time we could go to the arcade with Jimin hyung. If you want to."

What? More than one person wanted to hang out with me? "I'd love that Tae. Here, let me pay the bill today okay?"
He didn't accept so easily so we decided to split the bill instead. "Oh.. Would you like to come to the play I'm in?"

His smile grew wider. "Of course, I'll ask Namjoon hyung for the schedule of it. The guys are eager to see it!"

"That's surprising, but I'd appreciate if you could come cheer me." I'd more than love it. I was confident when practicing, but I still was nervous as hell.

He took out his phone. "I'll note the date of the first time you'll perform. When is that?"

I shyed up a little. "June 25th at 4pm..It's on my birthday actually."

His brows rose up. "Oh! It's so soon!"

Namjoon's P.O.V.
How could he not know? "On her birthday? How are we supposed to do this now?"

I had a plan before he had even thought of the first one. "What about after the play? We celebrate at her grandfather's restaurant. Invite her mom. Everyone could go see the play."

He scratched his nape. "I'll stick to decorating the place while you go."

Ugh.. Yoongi hyung.. "As you wish." How disappointed would she be? I hoped not too much, but come on.. Be there for her on time for the fun of seeing her for once. If he wasn't coming, well I'll be cheering at her for two.
