All 19 members were hanging out in the practice room. They had their own little conversations between the groups.

"I disagree. Ramen is better when it's spicy!" Hyejin said, standing up. Mark scoffed.

"No it's better when it's mild!" He said. They were arguing about their favorite foods for a long time until Hyejin gave up and walked over to Jaehyun. She sat down next to him.

"Oppa can you please tell Mark that mild ramen is just disgusting and-" she looked over to find him distracted on his phone.

"Oppa?" She said. He hummed.

"Did you hear what I said?" She asked. He looked up.

"Of course I did. Something about-" he stopped to think. She crossed her arms.

"You weren't paying attention Oppa." She said. He sighed.

"I know I'm sorry. It's just... I'm texting a friend." He said. She furrowed her eyebrows.

"Oh? What's his name?" She asked, looking down at his phone.

"Her name is kim chaeri. And she wants to come visit," He said. Half of the boys care running over after hearing her name.

"Chaeri noona is coming?" Mark asked. Jeno jumped up and down.

"Oh yes! She makes the best desserts!" He said.

"And she loves playing all my video games!" Jisung replies. Hyejin looked around as the members shouted out what they liked about her.

"W-Wait a minute! Hold on!" She said. They got quiet.

"W-who is she? And why haven't I met her?" She asked.

"We met in America when I was living their for four years (hehe) and we've been friends ever since." Jaehyun told her. She looked around.

"So how do they know her?" She said, pointing to the other members, minus Jungwoo and Lucas.

"Well, she actually trained with us for a little bit. And then she realized it wasn't what she wanted to do so she moved back to America. And now she is going to school to become a teacher." He said. She raised her eyebrows.

"Wow. Well, when is she coming?" She asked.

"Next week. She'll be staying at a hotel but she'll come over here during the day." He said.

"Wow. One week? I can't wait to see her again." Jaemin said. She looked up at her boyfriend who was rambling about how awesome she was. He stopped when he noticed the death glare she had been giving him.

"Well. I guess I can't wait to meet her" she said.

~~~

"You don't seem excited." Chenle said. They were getting ready to go meet Chaeri, who they would pick up from the airport and meet her for dinner.

"I mean, I guess I am. But it'll be weird because she doesn't know me and I don't have a bond with her like you guys do." She said, standing on her tip toes to grab the box with hair supplies. He stretched his hand out and grabbed the box. He handed her a hairbrush.

"She's really nice. And she is like a big sister to us. When I first came, she learned a bit of Chinese to help me learn korean." He said. She scrunched her nose.

"I have a feeling." She said, brushing out the knots.

"Ugh not your feelings." Chenle groaned. Sometimes Hyejin could predict things just by a gut feeling she had.

"You had a feeling that it was going to rain the middle of a performance. That was three days before the performance." Chenle said, fixing his hair.

"Ok but was I wrong?" She said. Chenle looked up, trying to remember.

"Oh. You were right," He said, frowning. Hyejin chuckled.

"But the point is, your wrong this time. She's amazing." Chenle said. Hyejin sighed.

"Alright" she shrugged, walking out of the bathroom.

~~~

"Chaeri Noona!" Haechan said running up to her. They did a handshake before they hugged.

"Your getting so tall! And is that Jisung?" He went over shyly and bowed.

"Hey noona." He said. She looked at him, eyes wide.

"How is your voice two times deeper but your face exactly the same?" She asked. The other members laughed. Hyejin hid behind Jeno.

"Hey Chaeri Noona." Jaemin and Jeno said. She both hugged them before laying her eyes on Hyejin.

"And who do we have hear?" She said. Hyejin bowed.

"Annyohaseo, Unnie. I'm Park Hyejin." She said, quietly. Chaeri scoffed.

"You don't have to hide, Hyejinnie! I'm not gonna bite, she said. She walked over to Hyejin and gave her a bit of her forceful hug.

"Your so adorable!" She said, showing off her teeth with a big smile.

"Thank you." She replied. She tried not to show hoe awkward she felt after she called her by her nickname.

Jaehyun took her luggage as she walked with Jaemin, asking him about his injuries.

"See. I told you she was nice." Chenle said. Hyejin smiled.

"Yeah. She's pretty cool," She said. Chenle rolled his eyes.

"You still have the feeling." He said. She shrugged.

"I can't help it." She said. Jeno walked up.

"What's going on?" He asked. Chenle pointed to Hyejin.

"She has a feeling." He said. Jeno sighed.

"Get rid of it. Cuz your gonna love Chaeri." He said, wrapping his arm around her shoulders Hyejin shook her head.

"Your right. I'm being silly." She said, half lying.

~~~

"Hyejinnie? Are you ok? You haven't really eaten your food." Jaehyun asked. She shrugged.

"They put to much oil." She said, scrunching her nose.

"Why is too much oil a big deal?" Chaeri asked.

"She doesn't like a lot of oily foods. That's why we cook with less oil when we cook for her." He said. Chaeri crossed her arms.

"She doesn't cook? I'm kind of surprised. Don't worry, Jae. I have so much dishes I learned how to cook that I can cook for you." She said, putting her arm on his muscles. Hyejin raised her eyebrows.

"Actually Unnie, I do know how to cook." She said, looking at her.

"Yeah, Hyejinnie does a lot of cooking. She's probably better than me." He said, winking at her. She giggled. Chaeri looked at the two.

"Ok, but you like oily food Jaehyun. I'll cook you what you like." She said, moving her chair closer to him.

"Well, if you want, sure. But I got used to less oily food. It's more healthier too." He said. He turned to Hyejin. He pulled his plate closer to her.

"We'll share it. And then later, We'll get desert." He said. She smiled. They were eating off the same plate.

Chaeri watched them with a bitter look. At one point Hyejin dropped her fork on the ground, so Jaehyun fed her with his. Chaeri stood up and they all looked at her.

"Is everything alright, noona?" Mark asked. She clenched her teeth into a forced smile.

"Everything is fine." She said. She looked at Jaehyun and Hyejin.

"I'm just going to go to the ladies room really quick." She said. She grabbed her purse and walked to the restroom. Hyejin watched her storm away.

~~~

"It's been five minutes and she hasn't came back yet," Jaehyun said. Hyejin stood up.

"I'll go check on her." She said. She pushed in her chair and walked into the bathroom. She slowly opened the door when she heard her voice.

"I swear he's different. Obviously he's more hotter. But I'm never gonna talk to him if that little-" she turned around to see Hyejin.

"I-I wasn't listening! I just came to check on you. J-Jaehyun Oppa was worried ab-"

"Jaehyun Oppa was worried about me? Oh. Well tell him I'm fine." She said, sternly. Hyejin nodded and slowly walked out of the room. Before she left she put her ear on the door.

"It was the girl. Apparently Jaehyun is worried about me. Which means he cares about me as well." She said. Hyejin furrowed her eyebrows.

"As soon as I get her out of the way, he's gonna be head over heels for me" she said, chuckling. Hyejin shook her head.

"I had a feeling" she said, walking away.
