"guys! let's take a photo for insta!"
nari waved you over and you smiled nervously.
the three of you took a few photos throughout the day, and somehow nari didn't see your follows or any of the stays exploding with theories.
at one point, you were so distracted that you tripped on the side of a fountain and fell inside.
joowon bursted out laughing as nari was in pure shock.
eventually, nari started laughing too and took a picture.
you had to rush home with the two of them behind you to change clothes.
"n/n!! can we choose any movie we want??!!"
nari yelled.
"yeah, i don't care!"
you said while drying your hair.
"no way...nari! look at this!"
joowon showed nari the people that were following you and pointed to seungmin.
"and look at everyone making theories,"
he pointed to the posts.
"but we haven't even met seungmin? why is he followed n/n? maybe it was an accident?"
joowon rolled his eyes at nari's naïveté.
"nari! what is seungmin's english name??"
he shook her shoulders.
she thought.
"ohhhh!"
she nodded.
"WAIT, WHAT?! SKY IS SEUNGMIN?!?!"
she screamed so loudly that you heard from your bathroom.
"DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS?!"
"maybe..."
you mumbled.
"YOU GOT TO DANCE WITH SEUNGMIN AND WE HAVE HIS PHONE NUMBER? oh wait we can't even text him. never mind!"
she lost her excitement.
"well..."
you held up your phone.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME? ohhh...i'm gonna faint..."
nari held her hand to her forehead.
"is he breaking rules doing this or?"
joowon turned to you.
you shrugged, unsure.
"well he's really not hiding this. he just commented on my post,"
nari pointed.
"saying?"
you sat down next to her.
she showed you the post on her phone.

mixedberries146jgn bro's not even trying to prevent dating rumors anymore
angeeells_127 SEUNGMIN COMMENTED
nari liked seungmin's comment.
it didn't take long for everyone to start noticing more.
every post was, "SEUNGMIN'S NEW GIRLFRIEND??" "SEUNGMIN OF STRAY KIDS FOLLOWS UNKNOWN GIRL ON INSTAGRAM!" "SEUNGMIN COMMENTS ON AN ASSUMED TO BE FRIEND'S POST!"
your only question was, "what is he doing?!"
so that's what you asked him.
he never gave you a direct answer.
instead, he'd change the subject.
"i have an idea,"
he said over a phone call.
"it better not be risky,"
you replied.
"why don't we dance to 'bite me' again and post it?"
"that's risky."
"fine then! i'll ask nari,"
you scoffed.
"okay, fine! you have to pick me up, though. i'm not driving to jype,"
"deal,"
you hung up the phone.
"i'm going to jype...i may run into more idols..."
you almost fainted at the thought.
seungmin rang you doorbell, you almost passed out when you saw him at your door, blah blah blah.
you guys drove over.
you were in kim seungmin's car!!
okay, anyways.
he snuck you in somehow, and the two of you successfully made it to the dance room.
although, once you got in, you didn't think anybody would be in there.
behold, peter.
"seungmin...why are you with the girl from the masquerade?"
jisung emphasized the words "seungmin" and "masquerade."
"han, hello. how about you don't tell chan about this?"
seungmin looked shocked.
"tell chan about what?"
of course chan walked in.
why wouldn't he?
"oh."
he paused.
the four of you just stood there in silence for a bit.
"soooo,"
jisung awkwardly made his way out of the room with chan following behind him.
then it was just you and seungmin staring at each other.
"shall we?"
you cleared your throat.
"yup,"
seungmin immediately responded.
"don't pull anything like last time."
you said as you got ready.
"on camera? never!"
seungmin joked.
you weren't sure how to respond to that.
"are you positive you wanna do this?"
you made sure to ask.
"i've never been so sure of anything else,"
he started the song, and the two of you danced like you did a year before.
"should i tag you?"
he asked.
you instantly shook your head.
"i'd rather them figure out who i am. have you seen them going crazy over me, nari, and joowon?"
seungmin nodded with a smile.
"SEUNGMIN?! WHAT IS THIS?!"
changbin bursted into the room.
"you're gonna get in so much trouble!"
he pointed to the phone, then at him.
"not if we do..."
seungmin showed a video to changbin.
"this."
"OH HELL NO."
——————
"why did i have to do it?! you invited me!"
you complained.
"because then jyp would allow us to still talk to each other,"
seungmin had made the two of you dance to "Groove Back," which you dreaded.
changbin most likely hated it way more than you did.
it was his unluckiness for deciding to walk in!
when seungmin posted the videos, you noticed it was already ten pm.
seungmin drove you back home, making you watch the video on the way.
"i think we look great,"
he said, focusing on the road.
"yeah, i'll agree with you on that, but the second video..."
"oh, don't worry, i hated that too,"
seungmin laughed.
"so, how are nari and joowon?"
he asked, still focusing intently on the road.
"they're great. they slept over yesterday,"
"are we gonna talk about you falling in the fountain?"
he hid a laugh.
"hey, that water was cold!"
"yeah, but you fell inside the fountain, n/n."
he gestured.
"yeah, i know. i was there."
you sunk into your car seat.
"awwee, don't worry. you don't need to cry,"
he tapped your shoulder with his palm twice.
"i'm not crying!"
you immediately sad up.
"don't hide your emotions from your favorite stray kids member,"
seungmin turned to you and tilted his head.
"uh-huh. sure,"
"hey, you said it yourself!"
he pulled up to your driveway.
you got out of the car and thanked him.
"hey, where's my 'i love you, seungmin'?"
he said, the windows of the car still rolled down.
"i hate you seungmin,"
"no you don't."
"i dislike you, seungmin,"
"you still don't,"
"i love you, seungmin,"
you gave up.
"there you go!"
"wow, i don't even get one back?"
you acted hurt.
"nope. bye, n/n!"
he blew a kiss and drove away.
you froze for a few seconds, ran inside, threw yourself on the couch, then squealed into a pillow.
your phone started blowing up.
on the dance video, you got notifications from nari, joowon, some of the people that performed maniac with you guys, and random stays.

you slid your back down the couch until you were seated on the floor.
"this was such a bad idea,"
you said, now lying on the floor.
you ended up commenting something.
