3 AM ~ Moonseok

Jung Hoseok's favorite time of the year was the  annual award ceremonies at the end and the beginning of each year. He enjoyed watching other idols perform, and secretly loved going up on stage to receive those generic awards with his group.

That's why, he was filled with surprise and excitement when he was invited to participate in the SBS Daejun opening act in a short cameo for a hip hop dance. Jimin was also invited for the contemporary dance part of the opening act, which was no surprise to Hoseok. 

Apparently the event's staff took notice of both their impressive dancing and their booming fame and thus contacted their agency. His manager told the two main dancers of the invitation and the two of course obliged. His members congratulated them, each of them encouraging the two to do their best and put on a great stage for the fans. And then there was Taehyung.

"Ooh, get some!" He hollered, after finding out there would be a collaboration with a female idol.

The deep voiced vocalist ended up getting cursed out by Hoseok and kicked in the groin by Jimin immediately after.

Though, perhaps the worst part of this participation for the event was that a practice was scheduled to be at 12 AM, two days before the actual event. On other hand, this time was nothing compared to the monstrous times that his group's dance practices took place. They would practice from 10 pm to 7 am in the morning at times. Hoseok just hoped that his partner would be able to get the dance down quickly so he leave.

And he would soon find out. 

The studio was a long drive from the dorms, and he given a ride by his manager. Hopping off the car, Hoseok found himself standing in front of the designated studio, more normal looking than he thought. A wave of nausea suddenly washed over him, realizing that he had to talk to a stranger. The last time Hoseok had to meet someone new on his own would probably be when he first met his group members almost a decade ago.

Out of habit, Hoseok pulled the sleeve of his jacket, revealing his Gucci watch, and looked at the time.

11:48 PM

He was quite early, and it seemed that the dance practice for the contemporary act still hadn't finished. He'll just wait inside then. Straightening his coat, he pushed open the heavy glass door and entered the building.

"1, 2, 3, A muffled voice came from inside the practice room, which Hoseok immediately recognized as Jimin. "There, there perfect!

Glancing through the glass door, he distinguished his band member as the pink haired taller boy standing in the back in the mist of the other idols, instructing them. An intangible kind of charisma radiated from JImin, which Hoseok thought only resided on stage. Was the kid always like this? He had really grown up.

Not wanting to disturb their practice, Hoseok too it upon himself to take a seat on the chairs in the hallway, across the dance room. Then he noticed he wasn't alone.

A silver haired female, with her long hair tied up in a ponytail and tucked under a snapback, sat in one of the seats. Seeing Hoseok she immediately got up to greet him.

"Hello, I'm Moonbyul from MAMAMOO," she bowed. Hoseok noticed she had quite a low voice for a female idol. He was expecting someone bright and chipper. He was quite thankful that it wasn't though as he had quite a short temper for those type of people. Especially at 12 in the morning.

Though, he had to say that he was also quite taken back by Moonbyul.

Memories of their most recent performances was still fresh in his mind, of a charismatic, girl-crush Moonbyul with heavy make up. And that Moonbyul was actually this soft-faced, calm reserved female currently standing in front of him.
