~Yoona's POV~

I had just finished putting out the snacks when the doorbell rung.

"That would be your guests." Rin said.

"Yes!" I agreed before rushing over to the door.

I opened the door and on the other side were my older friends from Seventeen.

"Seungkwan oppa! Vernon oppa!" I exclaimed. "Come in, come in."

I waved them inside and gave them each a hug after shutting the door.

"Happy Birthday Yoona." Vernon said on behalf of the both of them.

"Thank you." I said. "It'll be kind of quiet today. Just my members, you guys, and one other person."

"Who?" Seungkwan asked out of curiosity.

"Mark from NCT." I replied.

"Ah." The two said. They seemed awkward but it was just because they weren't close to him. I knew that would change by the end of the night.

"We'll just play games and stuff." I explained. "I wanted to keep things low."

"We understand." Vernon said.

That's when the doorbell rung again.

"Go on, make yourself at home." I waved them over to the livingroom.

My members rushed in to make them more comfortable while I opened the door to greet my next and final guest, only to see more than just Mark.

"L-Lucas?" I said, my eyes full of shock.

"Surprise!" Both Mark and Lucas exclaimed.

"I hope it's okay that I brought him." Mark said.

My brain was scattered that I didn't know how to react.

"Um of course of course." I said. "Come in."

The two walked in and I greeted Mark with a hug and I went to give one to Lucas too but froze, stepping back before doing so.

"I don't get one?" He asked, looking genuinely upset.

"Um sorry, right, yeah you can have one." I said, giving him a quick and loose hug before letting go.

"Let's go." I said, walking away.

I lead them into the livingroom. I introduced everyone to one another.

"I thought you said only Mark?" Seungkwan asked.

"I thought so too." I replied.

The two Seventeen members laughed awkwardly.

"Let's start a game Yoona." Gaeul said, making things less awkward.

"Right yes!" I exclaimed.

I took out a game in which we started to play. Before too long, everyone seemed pretty comfortable. Seungkwan and Lucas even started playfully arguing about who should get a point. It was nice to see my friends getting along in some way.

We were on the third hour of playing games and enjoying my birthday when my phone rung. I looked at the name that read 'Uncle PSY' and immediately put my phone down so nobody could see the name.
