"Good jobs on tests so far, next we are going to deal with your fighting skills. You're gonna have to fight Jaehyun, since he's probably the best combat fighter we have." Johnny said. "Sorry, about it, we know you guys are childhood friends, but-"

"It's fine. He's just hung-up on the past and not seeing the full story." Melanie said. "He just needs to learn to get past it. It's been 9 years."

Johnny simply nodded, as the two walked towards the gym.

"Listen, I'm not trying to target you or anything, but I'm Jaehyun's best friend. I know him like the back of my hand. Something else happened between you too right?" Johnny asked.

Melanie sighed, as memories flashed through his head.

"You're the Moonbyul that broke his heart right? The violet-eyed beauty that he cried over for months." Johnny said, stopping and looking down at Melanie.

"Yeah. I've gotten over but I guess he hasn't. I didn't know that he was NCT before I came here, I'm surprised Seulgi didn't tell me. But it's probably time we both faced our problems head on?" Melanie said, as guilt and memories of long ago danced across her mind, displaying fully in her violet orbs.

"If you do join, please work it out. Jaehyun had gotten over you, but I think your appearance caused everything to flood back to him." Johnny said before pushing the door open.

Melanie looked throughout the room, noticing Jaehyun at a punching bag nearby, and Renjun and another member sparring in martial arts. Jaehyun stopped beating the crap out of the punching bag, looking up at the two who had entered the room.

"Where the hell have you guys been? I've been waiting here for 20 minutes." Jaehyun snapped at the pair.

Melanie rolled her eyes as Johnny sighed before speaking again, "Tapes in the left hand drawer of the storage unit, Melanie."

Melanie jogged over, before wrapping some tape around her knuckles and palms, before ripping the tape off with her teeth. She walked over to the mats where Jaehyun was standing, as Johnny had taken his place on a bench, his clipboard in front of him and his pen ready.

"Do you really wanna fight with jacket on?" Jaehyun asked, raising a cocky brow at the tight athleisure jacket that she was wearing.

"What, does it bother you?" Melanie asked, smirking slightly.

"It puts at even more of a disadvantage because it restrains your fighting." Jaehyun said, stretching his arms.

"I can fight in nearly everything, but i'll take it off to prove my point." Melanie said, unzipping the jacket and tossing it to the side, revealing the tight grey tank top underneath.

She and Jaehyun just stood there, eyes locked before Johnny's whistle blew.

Jaehyun lunged forward, putting a arm in between her legs and hoisted her up over his head, intending to flip and drop her. Melanie knew what he was doing however, and used one arm to pull him in a headlock, while the other moved to pull his hand of the back of her thigh. Jaehyun was taken by surprise, and Melanie leaned backward as his grip released, allowing her to flip off of him, kicking him in the face in the process.

Jaehyun stumbled slightly, as he and Melanie ran at each other once again. They traded blow for blow, getting more and more aggressive and powerful as the fight carried on.

Renjun and the other member looked up, with slight worry. The other member looked at Johnny, seeming to ask something with his eyes, and Johnny nodded. The other member dashed out of the room, as Melanie uppercut Jaehyun.

Jaehyun looked beyond pissed.

"I'm going easy on you bitch, don't test me."

"Then stop holding back, Jae." Melanie retorted back, as she dodged a blow to the head.
