TOP'S POV

"You have black hair!" Jiyong smiles brightly as I step off of the stylists chair and chuckle nervously. "I thought it would be more appropriate. "

I bite my bottom lip and look up at him shyly with a grin sneaking up to my face."I'm so nervous."

He chuckles and places his hand on my shoulder, "You'll be fine. When's the reservation?"

My eyes dart around the white tile floor covered in other people's cut off hair as I search my mind for the answer. The smell of hair spray and bleaching products is probably burning my brain cells making me forget the time I had set for over a week. All I can do is mutter out a word and sigh deeply with my thumb and middle finger pressed against my temples. Damn.

He raises his eyebrows in shock. I've never been so nervous in front of him, not even on stage. "Damn. You must be terrified. "

The dragons in my stomach did backflips and spun upside down doing complex twirls and turns as we slowly made our way towards the front door. "Kinda."

He raises himself up on his toes and wraps his arm around my neck pulling lightly, "You got this, just stay calm and relax."

Something in his voice gives me a boost of confidence, like a refreshing cup of coffee does for you before work, it keeps you up. I scrunch up my eyebrows, and take in a deep inhale. "Yeah, thanks man."

I run on of my hands through my hair and rustle it making it look messy yet tamed, just the way Elise liked it.

Ji sighs and reaches for the front door until suddenly my ringtone goes off loudly, startling the both of us causing him to jump back and pull away. "Oh my God," he places his hand over his heart and exhales deeply. "That gave me a heart attack."

I chuckle and pull out the rapid vibrating phone from my jacket pocket, it's Elise. My heartbeat stops but at the same time races as her name pops up on the front screen in bold white lettering. The selca of her and I making silly faces indulges eyes, sneaking a smirk to snake up to my lips. My mind surveys over the familiar name as if they had never layed eyes on it before.

My knees lock in place leaving me unable to move, let alone let out a deep breath that I don't even remember taking in.

"Is it YG?" Jiyong pokes his head over my shoulder, his eyes wide like saucers as he sees her name and the ridiculous picture. "Answer it."

I take in a shaky inhale before bringing a wobbly hand up to the screen. "Yeobsayo."

"Jagi hi, I'm ready- wait...are you okay?"

I blink my eyes and clear my throat before answering her truthfully. "I'm great, I can't wait until you get here."

Okay maybe not as truthful as I planned.

Jiyong rolls his eyes and leans back against the wall with his arms crossed against his chest.

"Ugh, love," He huffs out with annoyance. I chuckle and turn away keeping my focus on something other than him.

"Okay well, YoungBae is kinda grinding on Katy so I have to stop him before she has a heart attack. See you in a little bit. Saranghae."

I smile to myself like an idiot before whispering it back to her. "See you later. Saranghae."

"What happened?" Ji asks as he pushes himself off the wall with his leg and strides towards me with round sunglass on his face.

"Apparently YB is grinding on Katy."

He cocks his head in my direction raising an eyebrow as he pushes open the door to the cold New York street. "YoungBae grinding on a girl? No way."
