Chapter 2

"What The Hell Is Likey?"

"Girls, you will perform in 5 minutes. Please prepare," one of the staff said. They're going to perform at Music Bank today. Seventeen is also here since it's their last stage for their comeback, Homerun.

"Dahyun, you look pale. Are you alright?" Jihyo asked as she moved closer to Dahyun. "Unnie, I'm always like this, remember?" Dahyun said as an excuse.

"No, you're not. You've been acting like this since last month, is there something wrong?" Jihyo asked again. Dahyun just smiled, "I'm fine, Unnie. I'm just a little tired, that's all," she replied with a fake smile.

I know Dahyun's fake smile when I see one... Jihyo thought.

Before they go to the stage, 13 men just came in their direction.

"Do your best!" Seungkwan cheered, the number 1 Once of all time. "I will be supporting you with my baseball bat!" He said then proudly showed his baseball bat making the girls laugh. You can hear Nayeon's laugh the most... it's not new for them.

"You too, Sunbae-nims," Momo replied. "No formality, Momo! We're friends, aren't we?" Seungkwan said then glanced at TWICE's leader who is currently lowering her head.

SEVENTEEN's members seemed to notice this and immediately made a move to change the topic. "So... do you like to hang out after?" Seungcheol asked.

"We would love to but unfortunately, Jeongyeon is alone at the dorm with the pets and we can't leave her since she's not feeling well actually," Nayeon answered making them frown. "Then, we'll just be the ones to visit you!"  Dino said.

"Not at you almost laughing while saying our name earlier," Chaeyoung rolled her eyes. Dino and Chaeyoung are best friends that's why they openly joke with each other. No issue attached.

"That's mean," Dino said making them laugh. "It's true!" Sana commented. "Not just you. All of you just suddenly became awkward while introducing us," Sana added.

"It's not our fault that most of the members here are dating and there's more likely more couples in the future," Minghao said roasting Sana really bad. "Anyway, I think you must keep going since it's almost time for performance," Minghao added.

"Good luck!" They shouted as the girls proceed to the stage. They performed Up No More and I Can't Stop Me.

While performing, Sana is trying to maintain that fierce look but she fails every time because she kept on smiling cutely. Members saw this and were trying hand to control their laughs regarding Sana.

When they finished performing, SEVENTEEN will be the next one to perform. They watched from the screen inside their room. "If only Jeongyeon was here, I'm sure she'll suddenly bring a carrot light stick," Nayeon whispered.

"It's called Carat Bong," Mina corrected her. "Oh," Nayeon smiled.

Chaeyoung gently massaged her forehead due to Unnie's funny face. "Should we take a selca?" Momo asked while holding her phone.

"I'm in!" Nayeon happily shouted. "Ya! I'm watching!" Dahyun complained making Nayeon make a peace sign. The other members just giggled because of her complaint.

When it is finished. They all got back to their respective rooms to rest for a while. Vernon opened his phone and saw a text from Dahyun.

From: Jagi
Well done! You've been working very hard, I'm so proud of you!

He smiled upon reading the text. "Vernon, what's that?" Seungkwan asked and attempted to look at the screen. "Can you mind your own business, bro? Don't interfere, please," Vernon said. Seungkwan laughed at his words. "Got a text from Jag--"
