From the moment they stepped inside the house, loud music blasted through the speakers, making it impossible to talk without shouting.

- This will be the dead to me, I swear!

Wooyoung, San and Yunho laughed at her statement, following her closely.

- Do you want me to go and turn it down?!

- No, San, I'm realising why is so loud!

Looking at the direction of her pointed finger, they could see some people on the sofas or the tables, most probably, drunk, dancing and playing around.

- I told you this one would be wilder! - said Wooyoung, who linked his arm with San's almost automatically.

- Let's go outside! - pleaded Yunho.

The four of them tried to stick together to make their way towards the garden.

Nonetheless, a hand stopped Jiyeong by her arm in her tracks.

- Your hair is wavy today!

Turning around, the blue-haired saw a pretty sober Haechan, even though with his wild nature you would think he would be almost drowned in alcohol by now.

- Donghyuck! Don't your ears hurt?! This is so freacking loud!

- Not at all! But in your defense I have to say that I've been here for 2 hours already, so!

- Oi, Hyuck!

At the voice calling the younger, five heads fixed on a smaller figure, who approached them.

- Oh, you must be the so-famous stage director!

- Jiyeong! A pleasure, Renjun!

- I'm not impressed that you know who I am after all I've heard of you!

They all laughed, as Jiyeong and Renjun shared a shake of hands.

- Isn't this too loud for you?!

- I'm used to Chenle and this guy over here! - he pointed at Donghyuck - What do you think?!

- Okay, okay, silly question there!

- Hey!

Again, laughter filled the atmosphere between them.

- I'm going outside! This music will tear my ears apart!

- But I need to introduce you to the rest of the group! - pouted the youngest.

- Bring them outside, then!

With that said, Jiyeong retook her task of exiting the noisy house with her three friends.

As time passed by, she melted with the environment and was constantly changing places all along the party area.

Which included getting to know in person NCT Dream and WayV.

So there she was, sitting with Xiaojun and Hendery near the pool, on some hammocks that were free.

- You know, I'm thinking of starting a cult with only '99 liners.

She wasn't drunk, but she was having a vase of beer.

Of course, she was quite aware that she couldn't get drunk, as she wanted to confront the situation that night.

- That's actually a really good idea! - exclaimed excitedly Hendery, clapping and sitting straight on his position - You'll be the leader, and I could be the first minister or something!
