"Y-You must have forgotten about it, too! You went after me!" She retaliated.

"I was going to skip the party if it took too long." He explained, with a hair of pretentiousness.

"I- Whatever... What do I do? You're right, I completely forgot! What do I wear? When do I show up?" She panicked slightly.

"Just wear something nice, and show up at noon." He explained. "I can take you to the venue if you don't know where it is."

"I booked it, I know where it is... But I wouldn't mind spending more time with you." She admitted. "I've been through a lot with you, it might be nice to do something happy."

He nodded. "I agree. I was being stupid, then you were also being stupid, and we didn't even cancel each other out- we just stacked." He unconsciously stacked his fists as he talked.

"Yeah, I won't deny that."

"So... Do you want to get breakfast or something before the party? Then we can stop and change before we go together." He suggested.

She smiled. "Yeah, I'd like that."

"I'd like that, too... But I'd also like it if you dealt with your wounds." He pointed to her nose, and she tried to look down at it before she realized that doesn't work very well. She laughed quietly, then grabbed some bandages.

"Here we are." Seven announced as he pulled up to the apartment complex. The rest of the bandaging process had been uneventful and, frankly, quiet.

MC smiled and picked up her stuff as she got out, turning to face him before she went inside. "Thanks."

He waved it off. "I love cars, I'll drive anyone."

"No, thank you for everything. Thanks for saving me, thanks for the bandages, thanks for the clothes... Thanks."

"Oh, yeah. Yeah! You're welcome!" He exclaimed, a little flustered. "Just, uh, stay safe from now on!"

"Yeah, I'll try! See you tomorrow!" She waved, then shut the door. Seven waved back, and she made her way into the building. A few acquaintances she ran into as she walked looked at her strange, knowing those were not her clothes, but she ignored them.

She entered the apartment, then sighed happily. Not only because she was home, but because of everything. Everything that had happened over the past week all led to this moment, and boy was it satisfying to finally be able to relax.

... If you ignore the giant hole in the floor.

Whatever, she quickly tossed her dirty clothes into the washing machine, then plopped down on the couch. She pulled out her phone and checked the notifications. She had missed a ton of messenger chats, but what interested her most was that Seven was actively chatting right now.

707: I'm sure you're all happy to know that MC and I are safe, finally

Jumin: ... You weren't at some point?

Yoosung: Yeah, honestly I figured you were both just mad at each other again;

Honestly, though? That's fair

Zen: I don't think it's fair!

Zen: You know, MC, I was worried about you

707: What about me :(

Yoosung: Simp

Jaehee: Yoosung, don't be rude

Zen: I figured you could take care of yourself Seven;

I'm flattered, Zen, but I can take care of myself, too

707: She's telling the truth

707: I have proof

He sent a picture of his injuries

You're really gonna dox me like that, hm

707: lol

Jumin: I can assume that she did not actually do that to you, then

Zen: Duh

Jaehee: I know this is off-topic, but I have to say something

707: (she's changing the subject so she doesn't have to call Zen out)

Jaehee: Luciel, stop

Jaehee: Let me talk please.

Jaehee: MC, I'm sorry for suspecting that you were a traitor. My argument against you was baseless, and I shouldn't have said it.

Jaehee: No one was on my side, but if they had been it would've caused you a lot of trouble.

I accept your apology, Jaehee

707: We're all doing a lot of apologizing here, lately :3

Jumin: What is that emoji you just typed?

707: :3? It's a cat face

Jumin: A cat face?

He sent that message in a very kirakira frame [I'm sorry I can't think of any other way to explain it]

Jaehee: Oh no Seven, what have you done?

Zen: I'm already going to sneeze;;

MC decided to leave the chatroom before the argument escalated any further. At least everything seemed to be back to normal now. All she had to do was pick out an outfit for the party...

After she got some sleep. She had been up for over 24 hours, and it didn't hit her until now how tired she was...

She walked into the bedroom, then fell into bed and almost instantly fell asleep.

[A/N: I consulted the counsel (plehdnes) and was told that the "simp" comment fits Yoosung, so I hope you appreciate it lmao]
