"1 and 2 and 3 and 4 5 6 7 and 8. Good job ladies. You can take a break," the dance choreographer told them.

The girls dropped down on the ground.

"I'm so tired," Nora groaned and the others agreed.

Then Jonghyun walked in and greeted them. "Annyeong girls."

"Annyeonghaseyo," the girls bowed.

"Um...can I talk to Nora-ssi for a moment?"

"Sure," Jennifer glared at Nora.

Nora walked out of the room with Jonghyun.

"What do you want to speak to me about Jonghyun-ssi?" Nora asked.

"Well first, call me oppa," Jonghyun smiled.

"Okay oppa," Nora said.

"Do you want to go get a drink? My treat."

"I don't know. I have to go back and practice. I don't want to get in trouble."

"Trust me, you won't get in trouble. Just come with me," Jonghyun grabbed Nora's hand and went to the store down the street from SM.

"What drink do you want?" he asked.

"Ramune please," Nora smiled at him.

He went and got the drink and his.

"Here," Jonghyun handed her the drink. "So, how's working on your debut coming along?"

"It's tiring, but I'm getting used to it."

"Just wait till your debut, you're going to be even more tired."

"I think I can handle it," then Nora looked at the time. "Oppa, it's time for me to go back to the room."

"Can I go watch you guess practice?" Jonghyun asked with puppy dog eyes.

"Sure," Nora couldn't say no.

The both of them walked back into the practice room with the girls in position.

"There you are...oh...we have a guest," Jennifer said and glared again.

"I want to watch you practice," Jonghyun smiled at the girls.

"We never had anybody come and watch us before," HeeSun mumbled. "We will perform hard."

*******************************************************************************************************************

"You girls were wonderful," Jonghyun clapped.

"Thank you," the girls bowed.

Jonghyun stayed for a bit then left.

"Where did Jonghyun-ssi take you?" Jennifer asked Nora.

"We went to get some drinks at the store down the street," Nora answered.

"Are you crazy? You could've got caught by fans. We don't need any scandals."

"What's your problem? Are you jealous?" Nora laughed. "I didn't see Jonghyun oppa coming to you. Plus, you're friends with him, I'm not."

"Unnies, please stop," Girim begged, almost to tears.

The two of them stopped because they didn't want to see Girim cry.

"I think I agree with Jennifer unnie," Justine said. "We don't need to get distracted by boys," she looked at TaeEun. "We need to make this debut good. We can't have anti-fans."

"Okay," Nora said.

"I got to go practice my vocals. I'll see you all later," TaeEun said and walked out of the room.
