No one’s POV

Hanbin is already back in their dorm but the image of Leen smirking at him that night always disturbs him. After he was caught by her she haven’t seen her again and even in the midst of the holiday seasons he just kept himself busy at their preparations. The scandal faded with the power of YG and proved that Donghyuk didn’t do anything wrong. The anticipation for their debut is still on top. The scheduled date was January 1 but they have also doing promotions before their real single to come out. They’ve been performing as opening acts for 2ne1 and Lee Hi’s concert. They were also coming out on magazines. Christmas passed as the same for the group. They had a Christmas party at their dorm and the others were also able to get home to their families.

By December 29 at the YG office, they still haven’t seen their Noona anywhere. Even Sara and Junhee can’t be seen anywhere.

“Don’t worry. Maybe we’re just out of timing. You know it’s always hectic for us,” – Joonhwe

“Yeah, and besides we’re intouch with her. Besides were going to meet her later.” – Donghyuk

“I really wanna sleep later but for Leen Noona, I’ll keep my strength up. Haha. It’s been a while since we saw her huh,” - Bobby

“It’s only for a week”

“I mean before, we always see her almost everyday” – Bobby

“Yeah, well, we were busy anyway” - Hanbin

“Her voice kinda lingers to you isn’t it. Cause she’s always talking and very loud. Haha” – Jinhwan

“Yeah, her weird stuffs are kinda missing too” – Yoonhyung

“Anyway, we’ll see her later. I’m curious how her studio really look like. Hanbin said it was pretty cool.” – Joonhwe

“Ah, right, guys,,I have some things to do at the studio later. Maybe I won’t be able to come with you” – Hanbin

“What things to do, we already finished them” – Bobby

“Yeah, we’re all off later” – Jinhwan

“No, there are—uhm, some—“ –Hanbin

“We have to go hyung, what nonsense are you excusing for?” – Donghyuk

At 8pm they went to Leen’s place, Hanbin tried every excuse but failed. The horror of his last time here creeps to him as they knocked at the door.

“Merry Christmas!!” Leen greeted them and hugged each. Hanbin was at the last and with teasing smile, Leen hugged him and whispered “Miss me?” Hanbin’s embarrassment is killing him, he just want the earth to eat him now.

“WAAH. This is cool. You’re so good in painting Noona” – Joonhwe

Everyone was looking around and just as Hanbin was immersed in the room so as the others. Well apparently Leen already hide her scrapbooks and anything funny on her shelves.

“Noona, I missed you” – Donghyuk

“We weren’t seeing you around at the building maybe because we’re so busy, sorry”  - Jinhwan

“It’s okay, you should be focusing on your debut anyways..anyway, let’s eat first, I prepared a lot for you guys” – Leen looked at Hanbin if he’ll take the seat beside her but Bobby went to her side first. Hanbin sat at the farthest.

“So what are you doing these days Noona, you have another project?” – Joonhwe

“No, just chillin these days just doing some designs. It’s too cold moving. You? I can see that our Donggi has gotten more eyebags than before. You must’ve been tired, sorry for calling you,” – Leen

“It’s been crazy. I now understand what the sunbaes all been talking about. Travelling alone is very tiring already” – Bobby

“Haha, you chose this path. Anyway, you’ll enjoy that even if its hard, it’s your dream after all” – Leen

“Though…I can see that Bi’s gotten more stress” –Leen smiled. He coughed his food.

“I don’t know what’s wrong with him really. He’s like he had something left undone that he insists on staying at the studio but he can’t really remember” – Bobby

“Really? Or maybe he just don’t want to go here” – Leen smiled again. Hanbin bend down his head and stopped eating.

“Huh?”

“Did we miss anything here?” – Jinhwan

“Hanbin – ah, what is it? You don’t want to see Noona?” – Bobby

“Tell them Bi” - Leen

“It’s..just..I..I..” – Hanbin

Leen laughed and continued, “He farted before when he was here before he left. He must’ve been embarrassed to see me”

“AW! MEOYA!” – Joonhwe

“How disgusting kid!” – Bobby threw him something

“We apologize too” – Jinhwan

Of course that wasn’t the truth though Hanbin thought he was killed twice with Leen’s tactics. Though after that Hanbin became comfortable again. Leen promised her at one point that she'll just going to everytime so he knew she'll never blurt anything out.
After eating Bobby brought out a Jenga for them to play with.

“This aren't normal jengga blocks okay? These has truth and dare statements so whenever you grab a block you have to do or answer what’s on the block”

“OHO! Interesting!” – Joonhwe

“Game!” – Yoonhyung

The blocks are easily taken off and missions were performed. Donghyuk got a mission in which he had pull a funny face where everyone must laugh and he succeeded. Jinhwan was asked when was his last kiss and he said 3 years ago and even said “I’m very lonely this years,haay” Bobby got a very hard mission where he needs to cry but wasn’t able to do it cause he just laugh so much. Yoonhyung was asked a funny question, “When you wake up what do you do first, brush your teeth or eat your breakfast then brush your teeth” which he answered “I don’t brush my teeth at all” Joonhwe was asked a tricky question “Have you done it?” which he answered laughing “Yes, it felt very nice”  Leen’s mission was very funny too, she had to do aegyo which she refuses to death.

“Noona! We’ve done everything we can you. You must do it! If you won’t do it we’ll..we…we’ll kidnap your ghost doll!!!!” – Donghyuk grabbed the doll at the couch and gave it to Hanbin

“NOT MY DOLL”

“Then do it!” – Jinhwan

“Like this..give me my doll..pweessee??” Donghyuk showed off a very mushy aegyo to her which she can’t take

“HAHAHA, like that, Noona” – Hanbin

“Yah, just give me my doll” – Leen

“We’re waiting here” – Jinhwan

“Hanbin don’t dare give it to her” – Bobby

Leen got up and went to Hanbins side and whispered “give it to me or else~” So he gave it to her. “ASSA!”

“HYUNG!!!!!” “Hanbin-ah!” “MEOYA”

So they never saw her aegyo. She promised from then on, everything but not aegyo. So she picked another block and ate a raw chilli pepper. For Hanbin’s turn, the block he got was “Asked one personal question to a person here infront of everyone”

“Well we all know each other’s secrets” – Hanbin

“We are but not to Noona..Haha…then ask her. We’ll be curious too” – Bobby

He gathered his courage and ask “Do..do..you like someone now?”

“OOHHH..That’s strong” – Jinhwan

“Yeah” – Leen

“HA?! WHO?” –Bobby

“I answered already.” – Leen

“Omo…our noona is dating?” – Joonhwe

“Not because I like someone it means I’m dating him” – Leen

“One sided love??” – Yoonhyung

“I won’t answer anymore. Next player. It’s already unstable” – Leen

“Eyy..okay..after this we’ll give our presents. We must be home by midnight, we still have a schedule at 5am tomorrow,” – Hanbin

“The leader talked” – Leen

Everyone smacked Yoonhyung with pillows for ending the game collapsing all the blocks. They proceeded by giving their gifts.

“Noona, we only have one small gift for you” – Donghyuk handed a paper to her.

She opened it and screamed. “THANK YOU! I love you all! Omo!” She received a VIP Beast exclusive concert next month.

“Okay my turn. Well I don’t know if this is enough for what you gave to me but I think you’ll appreciate these…I prepared everything for the team specifically" She grabbed a huge box for the side and opened it, "Here, I drink these whenever I need to energize from working at the sets and they work greatly. They were suggested by to me by Taecyeon and Nichkhun oppa…And these are opposite of them, if you feel like you need to rest yourself this will help, it’ll make you sleep and re energize you..these are all natural products so there are no harm..it’s Suzy’s prescription to me…And then,.. ah, this ones,,handy massagers..when your travelling you can bring them with you.. And then..”

“Noona, these are too much~”

“What too much,,if I knew you’ll bought me a ticket I could’ve prepare more… these are the most important,” She opened the box “haha, I’m giving you dolls like mine so that you’ll have something to hug everywhere too. I picked animal dolls that represent you....this rat is Bobby, this frog is Yoonhyung, the rabbit is for Donghyuk, the fish is for Jinhwan and of course the squirrel is for Bi!” She said merrily “Hope you’ll love them as much as I love my doll, haha”

“Haha.this are so cute..of course we’ll love them..Thank you Leen, for everything” – Jinhwan

“Let’s take a picture too!” She grabbed her camera and positioned them.

“No, I think I should thank you more. Thank you for everything, not just for the huge honor of doing your music video but also for having you as my friends. It was nice meeting you” - Leen

“Aw, noona,,it’s not like we won’t see each other again” - Joonhwe

“Yeah, but after you’ll debut you’ll be very busy and I will not be seeing you normally like before” - Leen

“Why are you being dramatic? We’ll just debut but we are still us” - Bobby

“Fine. But still I’m grateful meeting you like this. I was just a fan before and now I’m able to have a party with you” – Leen

“Noona, you have to still be our fan though” – Yoonhyung

“Hahaha,,okay” – Leen

“Guys, it’s 11:30. We must be going.” – Hanbin

“Such a killjoy!” She threw him a pillow

“Why do you always smack me?!” – Hanbin

“Because its funny.” Merong

She then send them off at the parking lot. “Alright, see you again. Do well on your scheds okay. Don’t forget contacting me atleast . Haha.”

“Noona, you have to be there on our debut day..on our waiting room.” – Donghyuk

"Sleep well, Noona!" - Joonhwe

"Annyeong!" - Hanbin

“Fine fine~~ Annyeong! Goodnight! Saranghae! ^_^” – Leen wave at them at their car

As soon as the car took off her smile faded. She came back at her studio to clean up but tears were coming down.

*flashback*

The meeting with Mr. YG because of the scandal. After the confession with the Team B members, Leen stayed to talked further with the CEO/

“I’m very sorry for causing harm to the kids. It was my fault. They were out that day because I threw a birthday party at the karaoke bar with them. And it was Donghyuk who we suggested to drive Sara Unnie home. I’m very sorry,”

“So it was you! You’ve been around this industry. Even though you’re in the creative team you must’ve known how these stupid scandals affect an artist!”

“Yes sir.”

“You knew these things and yet you befriended them and threw a normal party at the public?! They aren’t normal. After 2 weeks all eyes will be on them and it is my duty to protect them!”

“I’m very sorry Sir”

“Because of it I have to postpone their debut to ease the news first”

“I beg you Sir, please proceed with their debut date”

“What? Who are you to tell me that?”

“I am no one high but I am their friend. Since I became friends with them, I heard their frustrations about their debut date and I discovered how it affects them emotionally. Everyone is having a hard time and this wasn’t their fault neither did they do something wrong. ”

“- - - -“

“Sir, my work here in YG is done and I’ll be returning to JYP after today with my members. Thank you for the offer you’ve given to me. I’m very grateful that you’ve called us to do their music video, it has been an honor. I promise I won’t do any harm with the kids after my departure. Again I’m very sorry but I hope you’ll proceed with their debut date,”

After 2 minutes~

“Fine, I’ll push through the debut date,,Thank you for the help you’ve given us for their music video. You can return to JYP now. Now that I knew you’re friends with them I’ll acknowledge your promise. Good luck with your future endeavours.”

“Thank you very much Sir,”
