Fate

Chapter 51

Mina's POV
I loved the stage. Sharing it with people I respect and am friends with was even better. They changed the songs on the wheel, no doing one twice! There were many from Oneus, different ones from TxT and BTS, more from Twice. It was so great! I adored random play dances. I did it with Meg all the time when she came over. What was fun, was that I managed to FaceTime her after the show ended. "Look at you, Boo! I've been seeing your pictures and videos, I'm so happy for you! How is it working with them?"

I was still pumped up from the bass' sound. "It's great! I absolutely love it. It's so nice! Moonbyul eonni is a good coach and Solar eonni is very focused during practice. She keeps us in check when I participate. Tho, we do fool around anyway."

An arm wrapped around my shoulder. "Isn't that my other Canadian friend? How are you?"

Meg grinned. "I'm alright, thanks for asking. I'm calling from London actually." Woah, really? "It's 2pm here. I'm here for a couple of hours until my return flight boards."

"Thanks for taking the time, Meg! I have to go, but I'll text you later, bye~" I hung up.

Time to celebrate!

Namjoon's POV
The door closed around 1am. The shower ran after a show day, I could get the importance of a shower. Once it closed, I heard a thud in the guest room. I got by her door frame. She had dropped on the bed. "It was nice?"

She had just gotten herself under the covers. "It was, you'll get to see some snippets of it on their social media."

I pointed at the bed. "May I sit?"

"You never ask." She moved so I could have space. "What's up?" The expression on my face said it all. "You're worried about tomorrow. If you don't want me there, I won't come."

Au contraire. "I need you there. You not showing up is also sending a message. You're part of this and you refuse to speak? They can assume even more without you. Also, you can express yourself a lot better in anger."

She chuckled at the last part. "Fair enough.. it's gonna be okay. Whatever they do." I hoped she was right.

"Why do you have so much faith in them?"

She sat up. "I don't." A gorgeous soft smile. "Namjoon, I have faith in you. That's why I'm not too worried." That warmed me up.

She never used my full name. I inched closer to her ear and whispered. "Let me propose something." She was all ears. "You don't say a thing. Let me take the lead. I control your every move.. Deal?" That grin gave me all I needed to know.

Mina's POV
Thank goodness we couldn't see these under my shirt. "Kim Namjoon, I swear to whichever deity you want. Don't ever do that before an interview I'm in ever again!" If it would ever happen. They weren't light either.

"You saying my full name was what put you in that situation, Foxy."

I came out of the bathroom pulling on my shirt. "The marks are so close to my collar! Thank goodness I have full coverage concealer to put on it in case it's visible."

He stared me up and down. "Look at you, so pretty and professional."

I glanced down. "Yeah.. I got help. I went shopping with Byul eonni and Kookie chose it from what I had in my case and the new pieces. I just don't know what to do with my eyes." I held my eyeliner in my hands.

"What's hard about picking?"

I sighed. "K-style or the one I did for my hiphop competitions? The thicker one."

"Well, one is the standard here, the other is one that you like and brings up your eyes. You're already dressed the part. Do what you're drawn to today." I did the eyeline that brought my doe eyes to light, but the rest was of their style, lip tint, all of it. He smiled. "I prayed you'd choose that one." He looked at my shoes. "Heels or sneakers?"

I put my white converse. "Just in case, I'll wear these."

He had one and only one request. "Please don't straightened our curl your hair. Keep the wavy, it's so pretty.."

I chuckled. "Didn't plan on anything else. We have to be there in an hour and a half."
