masterlist

taglist: @skzfairies, @3nhyp3nn [send an ask if you want to be on/off the taglist :)]

Amanda plopped herself starfish style across her bed after finishing a relaxing shower and changing into her pjs. She reached for her phone from her nightstand, only to let out a defeated groan into her pillow when none of the notifications were the one she was hoping for.

She hadn’t heard a single word from Jeonghan since her impulsive confession she’d left him on his voicemail this morning (if that was even what he heard). Even after she left two new awkward voicemails and 3 text messages trying to redeem the damage she made.

Ring Ring Ring

Not sparing a second to check the caller id, she cheerfully answers, “Hannie?”

“Not exactly.” An unfamiliar female voice echoes through her phone.

Surprised by the voice she moved the phone away from her ear to see an unknown number on the screen. “Who is this?” Her cautious voice rang, fearing that another saesang had somehow gotten her number.

“Vivi. I am Hannie’s friend. Well I guess I should say I am one of his members.”

Amanda straightens her posture on her bed as if she was in front of her at this very moment, “Oh! Hi! Um, how did you get my number?”

“I might have gotten it from Jeonghan’s phone.” Vivi murmurs, “Sorry but I wouldn’t have it wasn’t serious.”

Registering the worry in the younger girl's voice, Amanda frowns, “Is everything okay?”

“It’s about Jeonghan.”

“Is he okay? Is he hurt?’

“He’s not hurt. I’m just worried about him.” Vivi attempts to calm her down, “Do you think you can come to our company?”

“Of course.” Amanda didn’t hesitate for a second. Even though she was worried about going to their company when not many people know about their relationships and it risks their relationship getting exposed, if Jeonghan was in trouble she would be there in a heartbeat.

“Thanks! Also, could you bring some food with you, too?”

Amanda awkwardly stood in front of the staff entrance door of the new HYBE building, where Vivi instructed her to wait so she could allow her in. She couldn’t help the

“Amanda!” Amanda's eyes wanders towards the sound, spotting a girl exiting the building, waving energetically at her. Amanda waves back at Vivi though she felt like hers was way more awkward.

As Vivi approaches her, Amanda notices a taller man trailing closely behind her. As they got closer, she realized it was Seventeen’s leader.

She couldn’t help but feel a little intimidated. She had always admired S.Coups as a fan. He is an incredible leader to 12 rambunctious boys but after hearing how Jeonghan talks about him, she couldn’t help but admire him more as being a loyal and true friend.

Suddenly a thought hit her, she wasn't just meeting them as a hoobaenim and fan but as Jeonghan’s potential girlfriend. She had to make an acceptable first impression especially now that she is clear about taking the next step in her relationship with him.

Vivi beams, “It’s nice to finally meet you. I would hug you but social distance and all.”

Amanda smiles at Vivi’s affable aura that was somehow able to ease her jitters, “You too.”

“Thanks to Yuki I feel like I kind of already know you.”

“Who knew we would end up meeting without her help.”

“We should send her a pic of us together so-” Vivi was interrupted by S.Coups clearing his throat. “Ah! Sorry oppa. Amanda, this is our leader S.Coups.”

Amanda gave a polite bow. “Nice to meet you, sunbaenim.”

“Please, no need for the formalities. Just call me S.Coups.” S.Coups kindly assures her. “Thank you for coming here so late.”

“It’s totally fine. It sounded urgent. What exactly is going on?” Amanda asks the leader.

“It’s probably better to show you instead.”

Following the SVT’s oldest and youngest through the building, she kept fidgeting with her mask and pulling her hat further down to cover more of her face to prevent getting recognized.

“You don’t have to worry about being seen.” Seungcheol’s voice broke Amanda’s train of thought, “Us, Jeonghan and a few staff are the only ones here. Well and Woozi, but he probably won’t be coming out of his studio anytime soon.”

“But if you are still worried you can just say you are here to see your new friend, Vivi.” Vivi adds. Feeling assured, Amanda struts a little more confidently through the building, taking in the different features of the building.

“He’s in there.” Vivi gestures to the door where music was booming from. Amanda peeks through the glass door to spot Jeonghan dancing along to the rhythm of music. His body movements were more aggressive than the beat of music would allow and although his body looked drained, his eyes were burning with passion.

“He hasn't come out since early this morning. No break, snacks, nothing.” Vivi tells her.

“You're kidding?” She dumbfoundedly asks as the duo shook their heads. “No wonder he hasn't replied yet.” She mumbles.

S.coups raises an eyebrow, “Sorry?”

“Nothing. Um, so why is he being like this?”

“We’ve been practicing the new choreo for our comeback and Jeonghan has been struggling with it. Our dance director yelled at him. He’s being too hard on himself. He needs a distraction right now and we figured if he’s not going to listen to us or the other members, maybe he will with you.” S.coups explains.

Stunned by his words, she stammers, “M-Me?”

“You do know how much he likes you right? He never shuts up about you.” The leader exposes.

“It’s true.” Vivi chimes in, “I swear Jeonghan oppa has talked more about you in the last couple of months than Yuki has in the past 3 years. I still can’t believe the girl he had been talking nonstop about was you.”

“If you could just try for us, we would be grateful.”

Amanda nods, “But I still don’t know if it will be any help.”

“At least we can say we tried.” The leader gratefully says.

“Oh wait! I brought extra food for you too.” Amanda hands Vivi a plastic container of food from the bag. “I don’t know if you are on a diet or not-”

“Luckily, I am not, so I will enjoy it. Thank you.” Vivi graciously accepts the container.

Amanda glances at S.Coups, “I would have brought you some too if I had known you were here too.”

S.Coups fondly smiles at her thoughtfulness, “Don’t worry she will end up having leftovers for me to eat anyways.”

“Not this time. I will definitely eat all of this.” Vivi proclaims, holding the container closer to her.

S.coups scoffs, “You say that everytime.”

Vivi rolls her eyes, unable to argue back, “Fine. I guess I will give you some.”

“Thanks.” He sarcastically says.

She returns her attention back to Amanda, “I have to ask, Amanda. Why do you like Jeonghan oppa? He’s not exactly the-“

“Ignore her.” The eldest covers her mouth with his hand before she could finish destroying any kind of relationship between Jeonghan and Amanda, “Good luck. Let us know if you need anything.”

Amanda giggles as S.coups drags his younger member away. She sneaks into the dance studio. Jeonghan was so concentrated on the choreography that he didn’t even notice the girl he likes walking in.

She spots the stereo and turns the knob to the off, only for Jeonghan to whirl around and see her. He blinks a couple of times to make sure the exhaustion hadn’t made him start imagining things, “Amanda? What are you doing here?”

“Making sure you take a break.”

After hearing her voice cueing him it was really her, he didn’t waste a second as he darts towards her and envelopes her in a hug, “Did my members call you?”

She nods into the hug, “S. Coups and Vivi.”

“I guess I should thank them later.”

She pulls away and waves the bag, “I brought you some food. Care to spare me a couple of minutes?”

“Let me try one more time and then I will.” He promises.

Though she did believe he would stop like he promised, it wasn’t the answer she wanted. As a pro dancer, Amanda could tell his body wouldn't be able to handle anymore of the intense movements.

She shrugs her shoulders before sitting against the wall, “Fine. Then I’ll just stay and watch until you're ready.”

Jeonghan couldn’t ignore the scheming glint in her eyes and her nonchalant behavior, something he knew all too well. And when she began to pull out the food from the bag, his suspicions were becoming more accurate. “I thought that food was for me?”

Amanda innocently raises her eyebrows, “It will get cold waiting for you and you know I don’t like to waste food. Plus I did drive all the way here in the middle of the night so I deserve some for myself.”

Now that he got a better look at her, he could distinguish that her dyed dirty blonde hair hidden behind her cap was damp, clearly meaning she rushed over here after taking a shower without drying her hair.

A loud growling coming from his stomach, snapped him out of his thoughts. Amanda’s lips twitch at the sound, attempting to contain her laugh.

“What did you bring?” He succumbs. A satisfied smile appears on her face as she hands him some of his favorite foods.

After the two munched on their meal, they continued to rest in the dance practice room. Jeonghan's head gently laid on her lap as she mindlessly twirls strands of his light chocolate colored hair that had been dangling across her lap.

He plays around with the tips of her fingers of her free hand as he decides to ask the burning question that had been on his mind, “Why haven’t you asked me about it yet?”

“I figured you’ll tell me when you want to.”

There were a few seconds of lull before he murmurs, “I don’t want to let them down. They have been waiting for me to figure this out.”

“Hannie.” She softly gazes down into his eyes, “You are doing great and your members know that. All they want you in the best shape to perform and you can’t be in the best shape if you overwork yourself. So don’t make them worry….or me.”

Jeonghan sat up, placing an affectionate kiss on the back of her hand, “Thank you for coming and I’m sorry for making you worry.” A teasing grin emerges on his lips as whispers, “But then again, it did get you to come see me. Maybe I should make you worry more often.”

“Don’t even think about it.” Amanda lightly pushes his head back with her fingers before he could connect his lips with her, triggering the boy to sulk. “Since you’re done eating, I’ll clean this up while you go ahead and shower because no offense but you stink.” She dramatically waves her hand over her nose.

Now it was his turn to have a menacing gleam in his eyes, “Oh really?”

Wary by his expression, Amanda begins to scoot away from him, but his arm swiftly wraps around her waist and tugs her into him as he devours her face with kisses. She giggles in between while attempting to shove him away. He stops, “Be careful what you say next time.”

“I’ll think about it.” She teases.

He lets out an enamored laugh as he places one last little peck on her temple, “I’ll quickly wash up and I’ll drive you back to your dorm.”

She hums in response with a smile before he heads out the door with his things. Once he was finally out, she erupts into a little fit of giggles, “Cute.”

As she tidies up, she remembers that she has to talk to him about taking the next step in their relationship. But is now really the best time to talk about it? Though it outwardly seemed that his stress has lessened, she could tell he was still worried about his performance. But she needs to talk to him about it before he hears whatever she left on that voicemail.

The sound of the dance studio door opening, diverted her train of thought as she saw Jeonghan enter.

“If you are ready-” Her sentence was interrupted by him swallowing her up into a firm, warm embrace, nuzzling his head into her neck. Though slightly confused by his sudden action, she didn’t hesitate to wrap her arms, “What happened?”

“Nothing. I just wanted to hug you.” He mumbles into her neck.

“Okay,” She smiles as begins to stroke his hair. Her thoughts wander if now is the best time to bring it up, “Hannie.”

“Hmm?”

“I want to make things official between us.” She mustered up the courage to finally ask only for it to come out quieter than she anticipated.

He pulls away to stare at her, “What was that?”

“Nothing.” She sadly mutters with her courage depleting away.

He frowns as he tilts his head, “You sure?”

“No, actually. Hannie, I wanted to tell you that I am ready to make things official between us.” She confidently declares before flusterly re, “I-I mean, if of course you want-”

“Oh, I want to.” He clearly emphasizes as he cheekily grins, “So it’s okay to officially call you my girlfriend?”

She coyly nods, “And it’s okay to officially call you my boyfriend?”

“I would be honored.”

“Oh, I accidentally called you earlier today and left a voicemail. It basically said what I just said so you can just delete it-”

“Oh? You mean this one?” He pulls out his phone.

“I like Jeonghan….I really like him. I guess being away fro-”

Mortified, she exclaims, “You already heard it?”

“And saved it as my ringtone for you.” He amusedly adds with a devilish smirk that Amanda wanted to wholeheartedly wipe off his face.

“Give me that!” She whines as she tries to pry his phone out of his hand but ultimately failing as his extra four inches of height and long arm made it almost impossible for her to reach it. All while the voicemail resonates throughout the dance studio and he relishes the moment.

Eventually she gives up and pouts,“I want to revoke what I said and not date you anymore.”

“Sorry, sweetie but it’s too late to go back now.”

->bonus:

Later Jeonghan enters his dorm room after dropping Amanda off, to be greeted by his fellow 95er laying on the couch, watching tv and eating as if it was his own dorm, “Welcome back.”

“In case you have forgotten, your dorm is down the hall.” He replies as takes a seat next to him.

“Thank you so much for reminding me.” S.Coups dryly says, making Jeonghan grin, “I came to make sure you actually came home. Which you have, meaning calling Amanda was the right decision.”

“I can’t thank you enough for that. Since Amanda is now my girlfriend.” Jeonghan smugly announces with a joyful smile.

S.Coups pats his back, “Congratulations!”

“Thank you.” Jeonghan glanced at the food in S.coups hand, “Did you get that food from our fridge? Because you are going to have to pay us back for it.”

“No, this is food from your girlfriend. She was kind enough to bring food for Vivi and I.”

Jeonghan smiles, “That definitely sounds like her.”

“I like her. She’s a sweet girl, so don’t ruin it.” His leader warns him.

“Promise.” Jeonghan earnestly swears.

Jinx Friendship

summary: basically amanda friendship w/ my other ocs bc why not?

masterlist

taglist: @skzfairies, @3nhyp3nn [send an ask if you want to be on/off the taglist :)]

Jinx is a friendship group consisting of 3 fictional female 00 liners from different co-ed kpop groups; TXT’s Yuki, ATEEZ’s Amanda, and SEVENTEEN’s Vivi

TXT’s Yuki

Contact Name: Yukz🌚🐱

she first met yuki at hanlim after amanda transfer in 2017

the two were seatmates so they were literally inseparable in school

often have sleepovers at the each other dorms when they were trainees under the excuse of doing “homework”

due to busy schedules the two don’t get to meet up often

but the two are always keep in touch and even mention the other in interviews and livestreams

they give yeonjun and wooyoung a run for their money tbh

now when they do meet up they usually go on food dates mostly bc amanda is making sure yuki is eating and taking care of herself

similar personalities, food taste, etc.

moatiny calls them soulmates for how alike the two are

iconic moment: amanda has mention that neither of them initiate physical touch so the first time they actually hugged each other was backstage at kcon 2019 after not seeing each other in a long time. both said that the hug was sweet but it was really awkward after bc they realize they never had hugged before

SVT’s Vivi

Contact Name: Viz🌝💦

vivi has been friends w/ yuki for years after meeting her through their friends in i.o.i

yuki was constantly telling amanda that she should met vivi bc she thought they would get along

and ofc amanda wanted to bc she loves svt and especially vivi but everytime they tried to, plans always fall through

but two eventually met w/o yuki's help as vivi played a little role in helping amanda and jeonghan finally get together 👀

they later texted a pic of them together to yuki

tan duo

one looking like a softie and the other looking mean when it's actually the opposite

vivi always invites amanda to go see haunted houses, scary movies, etc.

each other safe place as they both understand the harsh criticism for not fitting into korean beauty standards

iconic moment: when amanda called vivi to wish her happy birthday but she didn't know vivi was on vlive and said "happy birthday bitch!" the second vivi picked up

The Trio Overall

friendship name came about as all the girls had been called jinx by many kneitzen bc they were thought to bring bad luck/ruin their groups for being the only girl member

it hard for the trio to meet up due to hectic schedules but when they do they usually go out for drinks

basically alcoholics

venting to each about the struggles of being the only girl in their groups

constant innuendos and cursing at each other

convo usually end up w/ them mixing between languages (korean, english and spanish) and they don’t even realize they are doing it bc it’s so normal for them

vivi always reminding the two she their sunbaenim even though she the youngest of them

going to each other concerts

you know girls supporting girls

they became a such popular friendship group in the kpop industry that they were invited to perform a special stage at the 2020 kbs song festival where they performed a melody of kpop gg songs

and even later debuted as a group in 2021

Yuki - The Chaotic 4D Yet Responsible Mom

Amanda - The Blunt Sarcastic Dad

Girl Talk

Time: September 8th 2020

Summary: amanda fills in some of her closest friends w/ the latest in her love life while at show champion

Featuring: dreamcatcher’s jiu and sua

a/n: let's say atz and dreamcatcher are good friends thanks to amanda for this scenario. like always, pls let me know what you think

masterlist

taglist: @skzfairies, @3nhyp3nn [send an ask if you want to be on/off the taglist :)]

“Alright, you're all done, Amanda.”

Feeling soft bristles from the eyeshadow brush lift off her eyes as she flutters her eyes open. Entranced by her new appearance through the mirror, she smiles at ateez’s makeup artist, “Like always, your work is perfecto.”

“It’s because I have a gorgeous model.” Their makeup artist playfully butter up to her.

“Oh, stop.” Amanda went along with it, acting coy and shyly waving her hand.

“Alright. Alright. That’s enough.” The maknae butted in with a repulsive expression.

She grinned, “You're just jealous.”

Jongho scoffs, “Please. I get just as many compliments about my appearance as you do. Now if you are done, can you get up? It’s my turn now.” He teasingly shooed her away with his hands.

“Fine.” She giggled as she raised from the chair and headed for the couch in the waiting room.

Finally getting a break, she used this chance to check her messages she hadn’t been able to check since this morning. Normally her phone was the first thing she checked in the morning but she overslept for the first time in her life which had been giving her an ominous feeling since.

The thought quickly left her mind after seeing some text messages she received from the person she had been secretly hoping for. An amused smile spread on her lips as she read through the spams of messages.

[2:34am] Hannie😇: good morning, beautiful😘

[2:34am] Hannie😇: ik you are asleep rn but dk showed me a cute video of a panda accidentally hitting itself with a stick

[2:35am] Hannie😇: and now i miss u even more😔

[2:36am] Hannie😇: also good luck on your stage today. I know you blow everyone away😁

[2:36am] Hannie😇: and make sure you eat properly

Wait a minute. Was I just compared to a clumsy panda?

[8:21am] Rara💕: good morning hannie☺️

[8:21am] Rara💕: did u just compare me to a clumsy panda?🧐🧐

[8:22am] Rara💕: i feel like i should be offended but i have decided to spare you for today since you sent such lovely messages after it

[8:22am] Rara💕: aren’t i sweetest🥰

[8:23am] Rara💕: thank you for the luck and i ate a yummy bagel this morning🫡

[8:23am] Rara💕: make sure you also take care of yourself

[8:24am] Rara💕: and i miss you too

As she typed out the last message, she realized how much she actually meant it. It had been a couple of weeks since their last date with her busy with promotion on ateez’s comeback and him preparing for Seventeen’s next comeback, which he had very been remaining tiplipped to avoid spoiling.

Though the two have been constantly contacting each other through phone to remain in touch, there was still a little part of her that missed having his physical presence around, which is unusual for someone who likes being alone and is nonstop surrounded by people all day.

She missed the way his eyes lit up and the gummy smile appears when he rambles about the things he loves, and his distinct breathy laugh as he throws his head back at some stupid joke she says. The little touches between them that make her heart feel like it's going to shoot out of her chest.

She let out a longingly sigh. Maybe it is time to take the next step. As she leans back on the couch she thinks back to when Jeonghan and her first reciprocated their feelings.

“Aera, I don’t want to do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable. We don’t have to start a relationship right away. We can take things slow. This can be our first date together and we can keep going on dates like this. I’ll wait for you to make it official when you feel ready. How’s that sound?”

She felt a weight finally be lifted off her shoulder as she let out a sigh, “I’d like that.”

‘I’d like that’? Why did I say that? I barely had the courage to ask what was going on between us, so why the heck did I agree to be the one to make things official?

She was about to bury her hands in her face when she remembers their makeup artist's hard work plastered on her face, causing her to let out a small groan instead.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

The boisterous voices snapped Amanda out of her dilemma enough to register the two girls who were poking their heads through ATEEZ’s waiting room, “Jiu unnie! Sua unnie!”

It took only a mere second for the three to run and embrace each other in a seemingly endless hug.

Amanda played with the bright red fringes on Jiu’s shoulder, “I’m loving the red leather outfit today.”

“Why thank you. I am also loving your outfit today.” Jiu complimented back before smiling at the boys, “Good luck on your performance today.”

“You too, noona.” Seonghwa said.

“We are going to be stealing Amanda for a bit. I’m sure there are no complaints about that, right?” Sua glanced around the room for any rejections.

“It should be fine since we won’t be on until later.” Hongjoong replied.

“You can keep her too!” Yeosang added from his spot at the makeup area.

Amanda shot him a menacing glare then faced the girls with a sulking expression, “You see what I have to deal with. Please keep me away from them, unnie.”

“Gladly.” Sua linked arms with Amanda, leading her to the door, “Bye boys!”

Jiu gave the boys a more appropriate goodbye before following the younger girls. The trio hustle down the corridor, none of them knowing exactly where their destination is, but enjoying every minute of their mini adventure.

“How have you ladies been?” Amanda asked as they began walking down the staircase of the emergency exit.

“Same as I was yesterday when we texted.” Jiu answered.

“What about you? Anything dramatically interesting happen to you in the last 10 hours?” Sua returned the question.

“Well…” She halted her steps on the staircase causing a domino effect on her two unnies.

Noticing Amanda’s cautious gaze, Jiu whispered softly, “What is it, Amanda?”

Amanda took a swift examination of her surroundings, noting that no one was in the near vicinity, “There is something I wanted to ask you guys about. Promise you won’t tell anyone about what I’m about to tell you.”

“Promise.” The duo gave their word with curiosity filled in their eyes.

“I have been going on dates with someone lately.” Amanda hushly confesses.

“What?!?” Sua's impulsive exclamation was instantly covered up by Jiu and Amanda’s hand as the three checked their surroundings again. Sua gave an apologetic smile, “Sorry. I was caught off guard. Since when? No wait, more importantly who?”

Amanda bite her lip. It should be alright to tell them who, right? She already told them she was this much and she fully trusted the girls to keep it a secret.

“You don’t have to tell us if you don’t want to.” Jiu interrupted her thoughts.

“No. I want to. I trust you guys. It’s just I still can’t believe we are friends or that he actually likes me.”

“Why? Who wouldn’t like you?” Sua rhetorically asked.

Amanda casually shrugs, replying with a half jokingly, “My millions of haters.”

“Those are inhumane people. We're talking about actual decent humans, which means the answer is no one.” Sua smugly corrected, making the youngest girl smile. “So will you tell us who it is?”

“Is it an idol?” Jiu added.

Amanda shyly nodded, “It’s Seventeen’s Jeonghan.”

Sua’s jaw slacks as she tries to process the information, “Seventeen, Seventeen?”

“Is there another kpop group named Seventeen I don’t know about?” Amanda giggled at her friend's reaction.

“You’re lying.” Sua is still in disbelief.

“Do you need proof?”

“Do you have proof?” Sua was only playful teasing her, but Amanda was contemplating seriously. “I’m kidding, I belie-”

”Here.” Amanda pulled out her phone and presented the older girls with a selfie of the two of them that Jeonghan had taken on her phone on their last date.

Sua reached for her phone as Jiu looked over her shoulder to view the photo, “Wow. I can’t believe this.”

“You guys look adorable together.” Jiu cooed. Amanda felt heat run across her cheek.

“I can’t believe the girl who could hardly talk to guys beside her members is actually dating someone now. Our baby is growing up.” Sua pretends to wipe away tears off her cheek before wrapping her arms around the younger girl. Jiu smiled fondly watching Sua continue to baby Amanda, who was grumbling and squirming her way out of Sua’s hug.

It was nice to see the younger girl be more open and not afraid to be herself. Whenever Jiu was around her, Amanda always had these walls built arounds making it hard for Jiu or anyone for that matter to enter.

Sua was right. She really has grown up.

Amanda broke free of the hug, “But we aren’t actually dating though. We have confessed we liked each other but we haven’t made it official yet.”

Jiu tilts her head to the side pensively, “Why not?”

Sua dramatically gasped, diverting the two’s attention to her, “Is it because he doesn’t want labels? Because if that’s the case then leave hi-”

“No! Jeonghan isn’t like that.” Amanda quickly shut down the idea.

“Wow, already defending him, I see.” Jiu says wryly as Sua chortle. These girls were enjoying this way too much.

“I was the one who held off making things official. I guess I was just scared to start dating right away.” Amanda explained to the older girls.

Sua gives an understanding nod, “That makes sense. It’s your first relationship. There’s nothing wrong with that.”

The younger girl smiles, feeling a sense of relief knowing her friends thought the same thing, “But I think I’m ready to make things official now. But I don’t know exactly how to go about it.”

“The best way is to tell him how you feel.” Jiu advised.

Amanda lets out a hopeless sigh, “That’s the problem. I’m not very good at expressing my feelings. Everytime I’m with him I’m lost for words.”

“Why don’t you text him instead? That way you don’t have to worry about his presence.” Jiu suggested.

“I can write it out for you.” Sua offered, holding up Amanda’s phone, already opening up her text convo with Jeonghan.

“I don't know. Isn’t that a little bit too insincere?” Amanda doubted as the girls nodded in agreement. “I could call him.” She wonder out loud then let out a hopeless sigh, “But I know I’m going to end up saying something stupid.”

“Well we can practice. Pretend I’m Jeonghan. Just say what’s on your mind.” Jiu proposed.

“Okay. Umm, Jeonghan…these past two months with you have been incredible.” Amanda glanced at Jiu seeking some sort of reassurance from her, which Jiu returned with an encouraging nod. “I really-y like spending time with you. I-I….” She let out a groan, “I sound like a bumbling buffoon. I can’t do this.”

Jiu frowns, placing a comforting hand on the younger girl’s shoulder, “You are overthinking this too much.”

Sua decided to approach a different strategy, “Amanda, why do you want to be with Jeonghan?”

Baffled by her sudden question, Amanda gawked at Sua, “What?”

“Why do you want to be with Jeonghan?” Sua repeated with more emphasis.

“I like Jeonghan.” Amanda confusingly answered, only to see Sua peering at her waiting for something more from her. Amanda gazed at her shoes, “...I really like him. I guess being away from him these past couple of weeks made me realize how much I really do like him. I always get this achy feeling inside me when we haven’t talked for a single day. I don’t want what we have to stop. I want something more. I want to be in a relationship with him even if there’s a huge risk of being together as idols because he makes me happy.”

After a moment of awkward silence for Amanda, she glances up at the two girls who were staring at the youngster in awe. Embarrassed by their gaze and flustered by her own words, she clears her throat and begins to ramble, “You know maybe I should just save myself from future embarrassment and just stop dating all together and then drop off the face of the earth.”

“Stop. What you just said was perfect.” Jiu assured her.

“Yeah, but I really don’t think I’ll be able to say that to him. Nor do I remember everything I just said.

“Well, you don’t have to worry about saying it again.” Sua sheepishly mutters, staring down at Amanda’s phone in her hand. The two girls stare at her waiting for an explainance. Sua gave a remorseful expression, “I may have accidentally dialed his number and this whole conversation is being left as a voicemail.”

“WHAT?!” Amanda rushed off to her, glancing at her phone to see his name and photo on the screen. “Ack! Why haven’t you hung up yet?!” She snatched her phone back, clicking the bright red button, which was similar color to her face at the moment, on her screen. “What am I going to do?” She hung her head and placed her hands on her face.

“This is good actually. You said what you wanted to say without having to say it infront of him. Well now you have.” Jiu attempted the optimistic approach.

Amanda raises her head, “Yeah, but we don’t know when it started leaving a voicemail. What if it only recorded the ending? You know the part where I said that I should stop dating.”

The older duo remained quiet, not able to refute her statement.

“Amanda, I hate to worsen the atmosphere, but your makeup is smudged.” Jiu softly told her. Amanda let out an anguished groan.

That ominous sensation she had felt all day was rightfully so.

Amanda’s Family

disclaimer: none of the photos are mine but the collages are and none of these photos included the actual face claim of my oc. this is just to give a idea of the relationships

warnings: briefly mentions drinking and antis

a/n: i did this for my other oc (@svt-vivi) and decided i should do one for amanda. so here is amanda's family and their dynamics

masterlist

taglist: @skzfairies, @3nhyp3nn [send an ask if you want to be on/off the taglist :)]

❀Dad❀: Rohan Madduri

age: 1966

career: indian restaurant owner

contact name: dada🥸💖

she has a very close relationship w/ her father

he kept her in touch with her indian heritage by teaching her the language and cooking some spectacular indian food

they go on movie dates often -> he usually calls her when there's a new indian film out and now that she's of age they go for drinks after to catch up

although it took him some time to fully accept her becoming an idol (he wanted her to be a doctor), he always supported her and cheered her up on tough days while she was a trainee

her mom sent a video of him crying when atz got their first win

atinys absolutely love him bc like father like daughter he is a totally savage

when he calls her on her bday lives it often them bickering and atinys find it hilarious

also when he comes to atz concerts, he's always friendly w/ atinys and dancing along and having a blast

he always says the boys are the sons he never had

although he says she is his favorite, she catches him calling jongho more often than her

mostly bc they both are huge soccer fanatics

❀Mom❀: Shin Bora

age: 1970

career: accountant

contact name: mama👑💞

her mom is a tad bit more overprotective of amanda compared to her dad as her mom considered amanda her miracle child

they can communicate w/ each other w/o even saying anything

both of them aren't really the type to say ily openly often

instead they do it through actions such as checking up on each other, making sure the other is healthy, bringing food, etc.

her mom was also against her becoming an idol mostly bc she knew how hard idol life is and she knew amanda would face strong backlash for her skin tone

she didn't want to see her daughter suffer bc of that

but once she saw how determined amanda was and when she saw her perform for the first time, she became incredibly proud of her daughter

they also spend a lot of time together watching mystery/crime shows and doing jigsaw puzzles

always monitoring on atz's schedule, knows their schedule better than amanda does

her mom loves all the members and treats them like her sons as well

but she has mention she is a fan of yunho bc she thinks he's really sweet correct

❀Grandma❀: Shin Eunchae

age: 1937

contact name: grandma eunnie👵🏻💕

she has always been pretty close w/ her grandma since her family would try to visit her yearly

amanda would help take care of her grandma when she wasn't busy with school or training

her grandma loves to spoil her like crazy and always want to buy her things

but amanda isn't a very materialistic person instead she likes spending time w/ her

so you can often find the two together in the living room making commentaries while watching korean dramas

her grandma was the one that helped convince her parents to let her audition as an idol when they were fully against it

she loves all the boys equally and always openly expresses how handsome they are correct

❀Dog❀: Shin Oreo

breed: Maltese

age: 2012

after years of begging, her parents finally gave in and brought home Oreo for her one day

12yr old amanda was ecstatic to come home from school to find a dog laying on her bed

12yr amanda also wasn’t the most creative when coming up w/ names for him but she still loves it nonetheless

growing up w/ amanda got Oreo to have similar personality like her such as a sassy attitude

honestly she should have named her prince instead bc he think he is one

since amanda lives in the dorm and she doesn’t get to see him often and he’s slowly becoming more of her parents pet than hers now

but when she visits home he’s over the moon and it so precious when they meet again

a/n: i need to start thinking of ship names for these two. i'm thinking jeongae? i'm open to your guys suggests. anyways i hope you like bc my heart is not able to handle these two. feedback is much appreciated

masterlist

taglist: @skzfairies, @3nhyp3nn [send an ask if you want to be on/off the taglist :)]

All her butterflies and pressure she felt while preparing for this moment instantly vanished the second the black car stopped in front of her and the passenger window rolled down to reveal Jeonghan’s charming smile greeting her, “Hi.”

He was wearing an oversized white collared button up shirt with a coat and black colored pants. His chestnut brown hair tamed in a wavy mess to top off his look.

Damn he looks so pretty. It’s unfair. She thought.

“Hi.” She smiled, opening the car door and sitting in the passenger seat, “How was the filming today?”

“It was fun. But that’s all I’m going to say ab-” He paused, glancing past her shoulder, “I see we have been spotted by some fans already.”

“What?” Panic filled her face as she slouched down the seat in an attempt to cover herself. They hadn’t even left the apartment parking garage and they had already been spotted. Jeonghan tried to hold back his chuckle. Catching her attention, she gave him a puzzled look, “Why are you laughing?”

Jeonghan nudged his chin past her. She discreetly followed his gaze only to spot her two giant members' eyes peering at them from behind a wall, she let out a small groan.

Yunho and Mingi had caught her before she was leaving the apartment and wouldn’t stop pestering her about her outing with Jeonghan. Though they did give her some enthusiastic confidence boost. She thought she got rid of them when she bolted out of their dorm but apparently that wasn’t the case.

She sent the two boys a death glare making them vanish in an instant before returning her attention back to the man beside her, “Please pretend you didn’t see them.”

Jeonghan finally let out his chuckle and sent Yunho and Mingi a little wave, “It’s sweet that they are worried about you.”

“That would be nice if that were the case.” She mumbled, earning a raised eyebrow from Jeonghan, “They just wanted to meet you.”

“I see. Well I guess I will greet them properly next time.” Jeonghan took out his phone to set in the direction to their destination before heading off. Her lips curved up spotting the fox keychain she got him from their first meeting hanging on his phone case.

“Oh by the way, congratulations on being the mc for music bank.” He said, pulling out of her thoughts. The news had just been released this morning and she still couldn’t believe it was really happening.

“Thank you!” She beamed, “I’m a little nervous about it. My social skills isn’t exactly the best. Especially with people I just met.”

“You talked with me just fine when we first met.”

“That’s different. I felt comfortable with you. You’re good at making people feel at ease.” Her unintentional compliment made him smile. “You know when you're not being mischievous.” He chuckled at her extra comment.

“What if I say something stupid or worse what if I accidentally insult one of my sunbaenims.” Horror passed through her face at the thought of it before covering it with her hands.

“Rara.” She didn’t know exactly when or why he started using this nickname for her. But she somehow ended up replying every time he called her that. And oddly enough, she like the nickname. Even when he calls her by her Korean name, she like it. Even though she usually didn't like hearing it since it usually means trouble for her. When he says it, it always felt comforting. “You will do great. You are very knowledgeable on all the idols so that can help with easing the atmosphere.”

“I’m not that knowledgeable.”

“I don't know anyone who knows more about idols than you. Well maybe Seungkwan.”

“I willingly admit defeat to Mr. Kpop professor.” She giggled and held her hands up, “Thank you. I feel a little bit more confident now.”

“I’m glad I could help. Plus I’ll get to see you more often too.”

“Ah, so that was your plan all along.”

“Maybe.”

This hangout? Date? Whatever it was had been wonderful so far.

The park was nicely secluded. A perfect escape from city life. There was a playground nearby, where the two goofed around. If there were people around they would think the two were little crazy 5 year olds with the amount of running around on the playground.

If there was one thing she learn about Jeonghan it’s was that there is always an element of spontaneity present when she’s with him. He always keeps you on your toes with his sudden ideas or surprises.

The two were sitting on one of the park benches. The park was dimly lit up for them thanks to a couple of lamp posts and dazzling starry midnight sky that can be clearly viewed since there were no buildings blocking it. A rare sight in Seoul.

Thinking through the events she had with him, she couldn't help but think this is what it was like being with someone you like. Her mind began to naturally wander to the unimaginable future.

Eventually it landed on her conversation with Hongjoong. She should bring it up, right?

A part of her wants answers but the other is scared the answers will only disappoint her.

Compared to her peaceful thoughts before her thoughts now racing about a thousand miles, trying to solve this complicated jigsaw puzzle of what all this meant. If only this was a physical jigsaw puzzle then she would have easily solved it by now.

Rustling sounds in the nearby bushes snapped her out of her thoughts, “Oh! There’s a bunny.” She whispered, pointing towards the bunny that was coming out of the bushes.

“They finally decided to show up. I thought we wouldn’t be able to see them today.”

“They are usually here?”

“Yeah. Let’s see if it wants to say hi to us.” He took her hand and led her towards the bunny, sitting together on the grass as he attempted to get the bunny's attention. However, the bunny cautiously kept its distance.

Jeonghan rubbed the back of his neck, “They usually don’t come towards people.”

“Come here, little bunny.” Amanda serenely called it. This time the bunny made tiny hops towards her until she was able to pet it. She sent him a teasing grin, “I think it just doesn’t like you. It knows who is a danger to them.”

“Dangerously handsome.” The audacity this man had to smirk and say that and while petting a bunny. It was a deadly combo.

She jokingly scoffed at his remark but internally she agreed 100%.

“It’s not just me they avoid. The bunnies never come around to anyone I bring along here.”

“And who exactly are these ‘dangerously handsome’ people you bring here?”

“My members.”

“I can’t argue with that.” She smiled, “So, you never brought dates here to impress them with these cute little bunnies?”

“I have once but I would have to ask them if they were impressed.” Jeonghan scooted closer to her, triggering the bunny to make it exit from the park, “So are you impressed?”

Completely caught off guard by his question, her eyes widened. Her inscrutable face made it confusing for him to tell whether she was surprised, horrified or both. His expression filled with worried over the worse case scenario, “If you don’t like this being a date then it doesn’t ha-”

“No! That’s not it.” She quickly reassured him.

“Then?”

Her bashful eyes looked down at the grass near her legs, trying to organize her thoughts. “I’ve been really confused about us for awhile. So I want to clear the air between us. How-How exactly do you feel about me? Do you like me? Like as friends….or more?” She finally looked up at him with hopeful eyes.

His eyes that were filled with upmost earnestly she had ever seen locked onto hers, “Aera-ah, I like you. More than a friend.”

There it was. The answer she had been waiting for. The answer she had been pining for. She kept a calm exposure but internally she was screaming with joy.

“What about you?” He asked, pulling her out of her thoughts.

“I wouldn’t have agreed to meet up if I didn’t like you.” She sheepishly admitted avoiding his gaze.

“Are you going to keep avoiding my face?” He teased, searching for a peek at her face.

She covered her face with her hands, “It’s too embarrassing to say it to your face, okay?”

An affectionate smile couldn’t help but spread on his face watching her. He wrapped his arms around her, embracing her into a warm hug, “You are so adorable.”

“Stop.” She whined into his chest, her blushing intensifying.

“Stop being adorable and I’ll stop.”

She groaned before shuffling away from his embrace to view him, “So what does that mean we are?”

“What do you want us to be?”

She might have gotten Hongjoong stamp of approval to date but she never actually thought it would happen. Dating was something that went over her head. Though she knew she would eventually experience it and of course she wanted to. It’s just that she wasn’t sure if she was ready.

“I’m not really sure.” She answered honestly, “I never thought of dating since I became an idol because I didn’t think I’d have the time. I mean we don’t have a dating ban or anything so it would be okay if we dated. But I don’t want to ruin anything for my members.”

A fond smile appeared on his face as he tucked a strand of her behind her ear, “I understand.”

A hint of guilt hit her, knowing that it wasn’t the full truth she was telling him. “Actually there’s also another reason. I’ve never dated before. I mean you probably already figured that out.”

“I had a feeling.”

“Of course you did.” She grumbled. I mean it doesn’t take a genius to know that Jeonghan had way more experience in relationships than her. She was mentally blaming her parents for their strict rules on dating when she was younger for her inexperience. But mostly herself for avoiding the people she liked. “What I’m trying to say is that this is new to me. I know that probably sounds really childish and stupid-”

“It’s not.” Jeonghan held her hand, giving it a little squeeze, “Aera, I don’t want to do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable. We don’t have to start a relationship right away. We can take things slow. This can be our first date together and we can keep going on dates like this. I’ll wait for you to make it official when you feel ready. How’s that sound?”

She felt a weight finally be lifted off her shoulder as she let out a sigh, “I’d like that.”

“Good.” She saw a little spec of relief in his chocolatey brown eyes as he placed a cocky grin on his lip, “And I will make sure you fully understand my intentions clearly from now on so you won’t be confused anymore.”

“Good.” She giggled. She decided to change the gears of their conversation, “Now that I think about it, this wouldn’t be the best place for dates.”

He raised an eyebrow, “You don’t?”

She nodded, “I think it’s a better place for committing a crime.”

“You have been watching Criminal Minds way too much Rara.”

She acted offended by his words, “Says the guy who started complaining when I suggested watching another show instead? Admit it. You are addicted to it just as much as I am.”

“It has some good qualities.” He reluctantly admitted.

A victorious smile appeared on her face, “That’s what I thought. Look, I’m just saying, the middle of the night, in a park with no one around-”

“Sounds like a great place to makeout.” His voice suddenly dropped to a lower octave against her ear.

She turned her head towards him revealing a flustered face, her tan cheeks dusted with light shade of pink. Being only mere inches from her, the smell of her sweet cherry blossom perfume that had been teasing him all evening, strengthened.

His eyes flickered between her eyes down to her lips, “Are my intentions clear right now?”

“Yeah.” She managed to say in a breathy voice, her attention focused on his soft silky lips that began to slowly graze over hers.

She was suddenly hyper aware of everything her body was doing and unsure of what to do. Her tension didn’t escape Jeonghan’s notice.

He broke the kiss, but the distance between their lips was barely there. He gently stroked her cheeks with his thumb and murmured, “Relax.”

Sparks ignited in her chest hearing his calming low voice. He moved his hand over hers, loosening its tight grip on her jacket and rested it around his shoulder. Warmth consumed her as she began to lean into the kiss. He smiled as he deepened the kiss.

As they pulled aparted, catching their breath, their eyes were unable to open for a couple of seconds, still taking in the moment.

“Told you, perfect place to makeout.” He smirked, earning a playful smack from her on the chest.

WANTEEZ EP.1

[green bolded italic font in brackets] = editor's captions

a/n: based off this vid

Masterlist

taglist: @skzfairies, @3nhyp3nn [send an ask if you want to be on/off the taglist! :) ]

“What’s her concept?” Mingi asked his tall friend who was peeking by the gate to get a glimpse of their short female friend, bent down smelling the flowers and taking in the country scenery..

“I think she was going for a drama student.” Yunho answered, “I’m excited to see how she will react.” His tall friend nodded in agreement beside him.

“Ah! I heard this school will be doing a play soon. Lucky for me, I have the script.” She pulls out the script that was stashed in her bag (the only thing in her bag).

[When did she prepare that?]

“I should start practicing before my audition.” She clears her throat. “Oh Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?” She exaggerated her hand gesture and spoke in a higher pitch tone.

[Oh not bad]

She then whirled around and switched her voice into a low tone, “It is the East and Juliet is the sun. Why is thou so far? Why can’t thou be near me? Life is so tough.”

[Nevermind]

[It's not even the right lines]

She fakes her tears, whipping it away with her hand. “And scene!” She finished her acting, “I will definitely get the part of Romeo.”

[Her future acting career is looking rocky]

She turned around to continue walking when she realized a guy triple her size with big muscles in a similar uniform coming towards her. And more importantly, he had witnessed her do all that stuff.

Amanda concealed her face with the paper in her hands as she laughed at herself and this awkward situation.

[shielding her embarrassment]

She unveiled herself once she calmed down and plastering on a confident smile as she began to walk towards him, “Hello.”

[acts like nothing happened]

Before the giant muscle boy could reply a faint male voice came from the distance behind him “Hey! Run! You’re late!”

She glanced over him and spotted a group of teenage boys running towards her, screaming their lungs off. Amanda halted her movement, completely flustered.

[What’s Amanda’s plan? Run? Scream?]

As the rowdy bunch drew closer she pondered on what to do. At the last second she moves to the edge of the sidewalk as the group of boys pushed past her.

[Answer: Stay out of their way]

Her mouth gaped, confusion was written all over her face, before she disappointedly shakes her head and shrugs, “Boys.”

She observed the boys beginning to slowly line up and casually walk towards a gate. After closer inspection, she spotted the teacher by the entrance and decided to quietly blend in with the rowdy boys. She trails behind them as they entered the school and politely bowed to greet the teacher.

[Merging with the crowd]

As she walked through the entrance she saw Yunho and Mingi in plank position. She was almost in the clear after passing them until she heard a familiar voice yell, “Teacher, that girl there is late.”

Mingi.

[Plan Failed]

“Student. Come back here.” The teacher called her out. With her head down, she scurried over to the teacher, “You’re late.”

“I’m sorry.” She apologized as she deeply bowed, “I got lost. I'm a transfer student.”

“Ah, a transfer student. Shin Aera-sshi.” He read her name tag that was pinned on her shirt.

She responded with a small nod and a timid “yes.”

“What’s wrong with your hair?” He asks after noticing the dyed blonde streaks in her hair.

“I’m an actress. I have an audition soon.”

“I see. Well, join your friends.” He pointed down to the two tall boys still struggling in their plank positions.

“They aren’t my friends. I don’t know them.” She firmly stated.

“Become friends then.”

“I don’t want to be friends with troublemakers. It could lead me down a bad path.”

“Who are you calling troublemakers?” Yunho complained.

“We would be great friends.” Mingi added.

“Hush you two.” He silence the boys before returning his attention back to Amanda, “Smart kid. Okay, go inside.”

“Thank you!” She bowed. “Bye, boys!” She sent them a cheeky smile and wave before walking away with the two boys' complaints sending her off.

[Shin Aera attends school successfully]

Post Interview:

staff: weren’t you scared?

amanda: no

mingi: liar

yunho: be honest. you were scared, right?

amanda: i wasn’t😤 if anything i was embarrassed when the big guy came and witness me do all that😖

yungi: 😂

staff: why did you decide to move aside instead of run?

amanda: i figured it was just boys being boys 🤷🏽‍♀️ plus i’m too lazy to run😌

Fashion Advice

Time: July 2020

Summary: Amanda seeks fashion advice from her fashion guru on her but ends up getting more than she bargains for

Disclaimers: italic words is past convo. mentions a curse word and briefly the pandemic

a/n: this hongjoong gif is such a blessing 🤧 he is also the best captain. hope you guys like it. let me know what you think.

Masterlist

taglist: @skzfairies, @3nhyp3nn [send an ask if you want to be on/off the taglist! :) ]

Amanda pressed a shirt against her chest, thoughtfully examining her reflection in the mirror, “No.” She irked, throwing it back in her closet. She continued her search through the countless amount of hangers in her closet to test out when she heard her phone ding.

Hannie😇: just finished filming. i’m on my way over to your dorm now. see you in a bit😁

“Oh. I forgot to tell you. I tried that one place you recommended me the other day.” She said through the video call as she scanned through her puzzle pieces scattered along her table.

Jeonghan slightly glanced up, breaking his concentration on his giant car lego he had been building, “Which one?”

“Nook Palace.” A small ‘ah’ came from him before she continued, “I suggested it as takeout for dinner with my members and you were right. The meat was amazing. It just melts in your mouth.”

“I told you, you would like it. I only know fine quality places.” His response earned a sneaky eye roll and a little smile, that didn’t escape his vision, from her.

“Okayy.” Sarcasm hinted in her tone, making Jeonghan grin. “The boys loved it too. I was highly praised for the recommendation and I think it’s going to become a regular takeout place for us now. So I guess I should thank you.”

“You have to treat me out as thank you then. How about we meet up?” He mustered up his most non pressuring tone with a nonchalant attitude to mask it.

That definitely got her full attention.

“What?” She miserably failed at concealing her flusterness.

“Let's meet up.” He said more confidently after seeing her reaction. “We haven’t seen each other in person for months. I mean I know it's because we both been busy and the pandemic kind of put a damper on things. But it's not as bad now and I know this really nice secluded park nearby so we won’t get caught by anyone.” He continued to list strong points making it difficult for her to argue back. Unbeknownst to him, she was already going to say yes. But it’s not often she gets to see him struggle and she wanted to see what excuses he could come up with. “Plus I gave away one of my favorite top secret places to you.”

She giggled, “You have made some valid points. Okay.”

“Wait.” She began to recall that the filming site he mentioned was about 30 minutes from here and she hadn’t even chosen an outfit yet, “Shit.”

Fed up and in dire need of help, she snatched the hangers of the outfits she had spent ages contemplating on and sprinted down the hallway of the dorm to the living room where ateez’s captain had been taking refuge.

She bursted in with the stack of clothes covering her face, yelling, “Hongjoong oppa!!”

“What happened?” The older boy jolted up from his spot on the couch, panic filled his face. It was very rare to hear her voice raised like that unless there was trouble usually from one of his younger members. But when Amanda dropped the heap of clothing next to his spot on the couch, he knew it wasn’t one of those situations.

“Oppa!” A suspiciously innocent smile appeared across her lips.

He raised an eyebrow, “That sounds a lot like your 'I need a favor' tone.”

“What? I just thought you need to take a break.” She shuts his laptop and moves it away from him. Although there was some truth to it since she knows he’s been working nonstop for the past 5 hours, her innocent act didn’t budge his skepticism. She let out a defeated huff and rolled her eyes, “Fine, you’re right. I’m desperately in need of a favor from you. Happy?”

A satisfied smile spread across his face, “Happy. What’s up?”

“I’m supposed to go to the park with someone in a half an hour and I can’t figure out what to wear.” She kept it as vague as possible.

“Someone? Jeonghan Sunbaenim? Is it another date?” He began to interrogate her.

Her eyes widened, “How do you know about Jeonghan?”

Once the 99z line learned about her set up with Jeonghan, it didn’t take long for the word to spread to their captain’s ears. Finally realizing it was one of them, she angrily grumbled “Which one of those idiots blabbed?”

“Jeonghan? No more sunbaenim now?” He casually diverted the topic.

“You didn’t answer my question.” She retorted back, not falling for his trick.

“Neither did you.” The two stared down at each other waiting for the other to break.

“Yeosang.” Their leader ratted out his younger teammate. 9 does not make 1 team

“I knew it. It’s always him. He always acts like he’s innocent.” Amanda muttered the last part.

Hongjoong chuckled, “I could say the same about you.”

“What do you mean? I am innocent.” She feigned a hurt expression, earning another snickered from him. “And I just like to make it clear, that I still refuse to count that as a date since….SOMEONE SET ME UP WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE!” she loudly yelled to ensure the ‘certain someone’ could hear from his room across the hall.

She is clearly not holding a grudge anymore.

“YOU'RE WELCOME!” Wooyoung’s voice echoed, triggering a frustrated tsk to escape her lips.

Although she preferred if none of her members knew of it, right now she was grateful to her members' loose lips. But more importantly, it was one of those days where Hongjoong had chosen to stay home to work rather than at the studio.

“Anyways...” Returning her attention back onto her leader with a smile attempting to mask her annoyance, “This isn’t a date. We are just hanging out…at least I think.” She murmured the last part.

Not escaping Hongjoong’s fine hearing, his brows scrunch together, “You think?”

“It wasn’t exactly defined as a date. That’s why I need your help picking out an outfit. It will be embarrassing if I dress up too nicely and it’s not a date. So I’m trying to go for an outfit that says ‘I tried but not too much but enough to show that I care but again not too much’. Make sense?”

“Sure.” He amusedly agreed at her ramble even though he had no clue what she meant.

As she endlessly babbled on while presenting her outfit ideas, he couldn’t help but find it interesting to see the girl who never cared about her fashion take it so seriously now.

Yet something kept poking in the back of his mind. She has a tough shell that she used to try to showcase her maturity, but Hongjoong knew underneath that tough exterior she was actually very innocent on the inside. Especially when it comes to dating. She never kept it a secret from the boys that she never dated anyone before.

“Aera-ah.”

Her excitement instantly vanishes upon hearing her Korean name that rarely comes out of his mouth, “Oh no, that sounds a lot like your scolding tone.”

“I’m not scolding you.”

There was a little sense of relief, but the uneasiness didn’t quite settle in her yet, “Then?”

“What exactly is going on between you two?”

“I’ll let you know once I know.” She answered honestly. The label between the two had always been hazy. Neither of them had ever spoken out about what was going on between them. “We have never talked about what kind of relationship we have after the blind date.”

“You should ask him.”

“That’s easier said than done.” She let out a sigh, joining him on the couch.

“Do you want to try to elaborate on that some more?”

“Not really.” She mumbled fidgeting with the clothes in her hand. Hongjoong patiently waited knowing she needed to get whatever was bothering her off her chest.

She sighed, “When we were set up on that blind date, I thought he did like me but I figured that it was just surface level. We both didn’t really know each other personally. Only as idols. You know?” She glanced over at him where she received a small nod from him, “I guess now that we spent so much time together talking on the phone and stuff, he’s gotten to know me better. You know, the regular everyday girl. He might not like me like that anymore. He might just see me as a friend.”

“You don’t know until you ask him. He might actually like you.”

“And if he doesn't, it could ruin our newly established friendship.” Her pessimistic side reared its ugly head.

If she was honest with herself, part of her mind believes he does like her. But the logical part of her mind, the one that always wins in her overthinking mind, can’t tell if the things he says and the way he acts with her is because he likes her, likes her or just sees her as a friend.

“It’s better to ask now so you know whether you should continue with your feelings or end it before you get too deep and you end up hurt. Don’t waste your time hesitating. You didn’t become an idol from hesitating right?”

“Actually there was a lot of hesitation.” Her comeback earned an eye roll from him. She chortled, “I know you're right, but it’s too late. I think I’m already too deep into this.”

“So do you like him as the normal everyday guy?” Although it was pretty clear what the answer was, he wanted to hear the confirmation from her mouth personally.

“Yeah, I think I do.” A little tender smile spread across her face before it faded away and replaced with a sadden look. She let out an annoyed groan, slouching her back onto the back of the couch. “Gosh why is liking someone so freakin complicated?”

“I’ll let you know once I know.” Hongjoong followed her, both peered at the top of the ceiling.

She never understood when her friends complained about their dating lives to her. There was always a simple solution when she heard their problems, but now that she is in their shoes, it’s becoming a little more clear.

“So you don’t care if I do date Jeonghan?” She suddenly asked, seeking his permission.

“Yeah. You’re an adult. Besides, it's not like we have a dating ban.”

“That’s true, but it does affect all of us if the public finds out.”

“Amanda, don’t worry about us. It’s okay to focus on yourself. If being in a relationship with him makes you happy then do it. You deserve to be happy.”

“Of course I do.” Amanda confidently replied, attempting to lighten up the somber atmosphere that was making her uncomfortable, “And even if you said no, I still would.”

“Of course you would.” He joked back, joining in on the laughing.

“Okay!” He clapped his hands, lifting his body up from the bed. He carefully scanned through the pile of clothes scattered around on the couch, “You said you were going to the park?” She nodded. “And you want something that says ‘you tried but not too much but enough to show that you care but again not too much’, correct?”

Her soft giggle echoed throughout the room. After hearing it from someone else it did sound a tad bit ridiculous, “Correct. It makes sense right?”

“It's the only thing that makes sense lately.” He played along, “And you don’t have any idea what you guys are going to be doing?”

“Not a clue. I know I probably should have asked but I was too stunned by him asking to hang out.”

He smiled at her comment before grabbing the hanger of a sage colored short sleeved puff ruched crop top and held it up near her figure, “If it’s the park, then wear this. This color compliments your skin tone the best. And…” He handed that to her as his eyes browsed over the pant selection sprawled over his bed before snatching a high waist light blue jean shorts “these shorts. You also need a jacket that is chic but also helps cover you from being seen by people, I think a light cardigan should work.”

“Which one? I have a lot.”

“The white one with the little hoodie.”

“Oh that would look good with this.” She agreed, eyeing her outfit with much fascination.

“Do you know what shoes you want to wear?”

“I don’t know if I should wear sneakers or sandals. I want to wear sneakers in case we walk around a lot but I feel like sandals would look better.”

“Not technically. Both would look fine. I think sneakers would look more stylish though. Do you still have those white high top converse?” She hummed. “Then that should be fine.”

“This is perfect! Thank you oppa!” She beamed, holding up her newly fashionable outfit, “What would I do without you?”

“You would be a fashion terrorist.”

“I’m not that bad. At least I didn’t wear an outfit that made me look like Winnie the Pooh.” She jabbed at their member Yeosang dance practice outfit earlier this year. The leader couldn’t refute that. Amanda checks her phone, “I gotta go. I only got 15 minutes and I got to put on some makeup. Thank you again oppa!”

Before she could even hear his reply, she had already dashed back to her room to finish getting ready for her ‘hangout’? ‘Date’? Well whatever it is she will find out soon.
