They wanted to get to know me better which I thought was ok. "Ok, so do you have any siblings" Taeil started. "Yeah, I am originally I triplet with two brothers but one of them passed away a few years. And I have an older sister, probably around your age, I'm not sure." I said avoiding explaining my messed up family.

"Next, ok so you gotta show us your dance skills, but can you sing or rap?" Asked Johnny. "Umm, not really" I replied. "LIAR!" Chenle shouted, "SHE'S GREAT, I HEARD HER AT THE MALL!"He continued. I shook my head. "Chenle, stop talking nonsense." "Well we can go to the studio later, we make songs in our free time, you should do one with us." Johnny said. "Maybe" I said back.

"Hmm." Taeyong started "When is your birthday?" He asked. "October 4th, 2000" I said. "Oh so you're a few days older than YangYang." He replied. "Cool!" I replied smiling. "What did he say?" YangYang asked. The boy that I'm pretty sure was called Kun quickly translated into Chinese. "Oh you speak Chinese?" I asked in Chinese, I learned it over the years with Jisung, avoiding going home. I learned that and English. I was gonna learn Japanese but never got around to it, I know a few phrases but that's it. "Oh, you do too?" Hendery asked. "Yeah, I learned it over the years" "Cool" XiaoJun replied.

"Okay stop talking Chinese, not everyone can understand." Yuta said. "my turn, what languages can you speak?" He asked. "I can speak Korean, Chinese, and English fluently. I know a few phrases in Japanese, but I haven't learned it yet." I replied. "Oh, well if you need a Japanese tutor, let me know. I'm Japanese." "oh cool, I totally will." I said giving his a smile.

"Mark asked in English. I replied. Mark stated slapping Johnny's shoulder and Johnny was nodding.

"Ok, what made you decide to learn all of those languages?" Kun asked. "Well when I was younger, I wasn't close to my brother and he had/has a few younger australian friends and he wanted them to tutor me and my previous brother, and Chinese just interested me" I said. He nodded. "That explains the accent " Mark said and I nodded.

Many questions later, we finally finished. "Should we go to the studio now?" Jaehyun suggested. The all nodded. "What about you Ji? You in?" He asked me. "I guess, but I need to stop by home and let my brother and friends that I'll be going." They nodded.

"Do we need to drop you off somewhere?" Johnny asked. "Oh no, I live right under you guys." I said, putting on my shoes. "Oh cool, we'll come with you then." I nodded and they all followed me out the door.

I got out my key and opened the door. "You guys can come in for a sec, I'm gonna change real quick." I told the 21 boys behind me. They all nodded and followed me. "Hannie I have a few guests!" I shouted. "Okay!" He shouted back and I went to change.

Right after I put my shirt on Hannie walked in. "JI!" He whisper shouted. "You didn't say that there were over 20 boys as your 'few guests' I thought it would only be the Dreamies."

"Relax, they want to go to the dance studio and I needed to change and tell you I was going." "Alright, as long as I don't have to feed them, but can we come to the studio too?" "Sure I'll notify the boys" He nodded and we both exited the room.

"Hey guys, can they come too?" I asked. "Sure, but how many people live in this apartment? Taeyong asked. "Including me, 14 of us." I stated. He gasped. "Girl you live in a 3 bedroom apartment with 13 guys?" He said shocked. I simple nodded. "How?" he asked "I live with 6 and even that overwhelms me sometimes" He continued. "Well you also live next to 14 other people, so it's basically the same thing." I replied. "Now lets go" I said opening the door.

All 35 of us made it to the studio and split into groups of 6 to 8 into 5 dance rooms. My room contained me, Hannie, Jihoon, Jisung, Jungwoo, Chenle, Hendery, and Johnny. "Any song recommendations?" I asked as we were all stretching. "umm we can start off with freestyling?" Johnny suggested. We all agreed.

After a few hours of dancing we were all tired and on the floor. Jihoon went to get water for the boys with me and I have to admit, he looks really attractive when his bangs were stuck to his forehead because of sweat and the rest of his hair was slightly messy. "Like what you see?" He asked. I blushed slightly. "Pshh, you wish" I said lightly pushing his shoulder.

Before we went back, I stopped him and spoke up.

"Jihoon ah" I started off, "I never got to reply to you about yesterday" and before I could say anything else he interrupted me. "Oh! You don't have to, I mean you can I guess but I didn't mean for you to hear it and-" I cut him off. "Jihoon. I like you too. And I was wondering... if you would maybe be my boyfriend?" I wondered and is expression was very shocked.

"I was gonna ask you that" he stated with a pout and I chuckled. "So is that a yes?" I questioned. "Of course! I would be stupid to turn that offer down" he said and smiled before embracing me in a tight hug.

"How are we gonna tell Jeonghan hyung?" He suddenly asked looking me in the eyes. "I don't know, but I suggest sooner rather than later" I replied and he nodded.

"Jihoon, don't worry too much about it, if he doesn't accept it, the we will give him time until he does" I stated. "You're right, maybe we should tell him tonight?" He recommended. "Alright" I replied and hugged him. "Don't be nervous, I don't think he would mind too much. At most he would be protective and might threaten you." He nodded and we walked back to the practice room.

We parted ways with the other boys later and entered our apartment. Some boys went to go wash up while the rest of us sat in our rooms waiting to shower as well.

I was on my phone when a voice called from under me. It was obviously Hannie because his bed is under mine. "Ji, when do you start work?" he asked. "On Wednesday, in four days." He hummed in response and I decided to text Jihoon even though we were in the same room.

{Jihoonie💕}

Hey, after Hanniefinishess washing up we should tell him

: Yeah I think we should

I put my phone down as it was my turn to wash up. I couldn't help but feel nervous and Hannie had walked out of the bathroom towel-drying his hair. I looked over to Jihoon and he nodded. It was time. I took a deep breath as Jihoon walked over to me and sat on Hannie's bed next to me.

"Hannie can we talk?" I asked. He nodded and sat next to me "what's up?" he asked. I took a deep breath and I felt Jihoon squeeze my hand. "Jihoon and I are dating" I said quickly, looking down.

He sighed. "I knew this would happen, but I didn't know it would happen so soon" I looked up. "What?" Jihoon asked. "You said you liked him a while ago and the day I introduced you to the boys, I could tell Jihoons eyes were different. He looked at you as if you were the most delicate thing ever and he wanted to protect you." He spoke.

I could see a few tears in his eyes. "Aww Hannie, don't cry, I'm not going anywhere. I'm still living here, I'm just... dating one of your friends." I said chuckling at the end. "Pfft like that's any better, you're just growing up too fast" He said pulling me into a hug. "I love you Ji" he said quietly. "I love you too Hannie" I replied.

"And Jihoon" he spoke up, "yes?" Jihoon asked. "If you hurt my sister in the slightest, don't be surprised if I beat you up, she's my only real family, and she's the most important thing to me in the world." Jihoon quickly nodded. "I won't hurt her, I'll protect her, she's extremely important to me as well." Which made Jeonghan smile. After that we all went to bed and drifted off to sleep.
