It’s just any ordinary day for them as trainees, when they just practice and practice. Everyone is busy with their own practice. Some are singing, dancing, rapping, or playing some musical instruments. Then a staff come to Jisoo and asked him to introduce every trainee in English. Of course Jisoo agreed and everyone starts to gather at one place.

Everything goes smoothly. Every trainee introduced themselves in Korean then Jisoo translated those to English. Some trainee introduced themselves in funny way, like Seungkwan. He introduced himself in his not-so-good English, just to get a laughter from everyone.

After the introduction time, the staff then told them to do the paper kiss game. They divided into some groups, and they must to transfer piece of papers as many as they can within the time limit with their mouths. Some trainee who aren’t really comfortable with skinships are looking nervous, just like Jisoo. Even so, Jisoo still try to participate in the game.

Mingyu POV

‘Ah... paper kiss game? It’s just another game to make our bond stronger and bring us closer to each other, since the skinship is beyond ordinary people do (with mouth!). Seems exciting!’, Mingyu really excited for this game.

‘But wait. Jisoo hyung is gonna play too? How if he’s in the same group as me and even worse, he’s the one next to me so I must to either give or receive the papers with my mouth!? What should I do!?’, Mingyu panicked and worry about the probability of ‘that’ to happens.

The grouping is over and as-Mingyu-thought, he’s grouped with Jisoo. ‘Oh My God’, Mingyu mentally shouted. But he try to relax himself by watching the other groups playing first. He just laugh so much, when he saw Seokmin transferring the paper as-passionate-as-he-can-get to Hansol.

‘Hahaha how can he’s so passionate like that!? Oh My God, Seokmin!’

After some groups played, finally it’s time for Mingyu’s group to play.

“Come on, let’s make the formation! I’m gonna be the first one here, then Mingyu next to me, then MingMing, Jisoo, and everyone follows. Get it?”, Seungcheol readily positioned himself to play.

“Yes, hyung!”, said the group members.

‘Fiuh... Jisoo hyung isn’t beside me.’, Mingyu feels relieved, but also a slight of disappointement.

“Everyone, ready? Then, start!”, a staff blows the whistle. Mingyu quickly receives the paper from Seungcheol’s mouth and transfer it to MingMing. He’s so focused to the game, until when he’s gonna transfer the paper to MingMing, he saw MingMing transferring the paper to Jisoo in a-kissing-like position. He feels burned up inside, but still try to play it cool by patting MingMing’s shoulder to pass the paper. He managed to keep his focus thorough the game, but then...

“Woah!!”, he heard some people shouted histerically. Mingyu glanced just to see Jisoo rubbing his mouth and MingMing walking to the back.  

‘What was that? Are their... are their lips touched?’, Mingyu feels burned up again for the second time and his thought filled by jealousy. ‘No no! Why I must be jealous? It just a game and it was by accident... and also, what is Jisoo hyung meant to me? He’s just an older brother, right?’

Mingyu try to clear his thoughts and back to the game. But when he’s about to pass the paper to MingMing, who he saw wasn’t MingMing, it was Jisoo instead. Not giving a time to think anymore, he just passed the paper to Jisoo’s mouth.

 ‘This just a game, Mingyu. Just a game.’

When he’s try to pass the paper, he feels a hand rested on his chest.

‘Jisoo hyung! Why is your hand on my chest!? What’s actually you’re doing?’, Mingyu blushed by Jisoo’s action, and without he realizes, the paper fell on the floor.

“AARRGGHHH”, Mingyu shouted.

‘Wait wait. Am I just expressed a frustration, because my lips can’t touch Jisoo’s hyung lips!? What on earth is going on, Kim Mingyu!? Seriously... Jisoo’s hyung lips... Aish! KIM MINGYU!’ Mingyu head is just overwhelmed by the thoughts, but he still managed to back focus to the game and receives paper from Seungcheol.

Now, when he turned around, he sees MingMing again and feels kinda disappointed, but still, he passes the paper and keep playing until the time is over. There’re many papers that they transferred.

After that, Mingyu just watching the other groups playing, but he doesn’t realize that his thoughts isn’t into the game, but Hong Jisoo.

Jisoo POV

‘There were so much things happened in just few hours... Oh God.’ Jisoo thought as he recalled things that happened. But there’s one thing that really in his mind. Yes, it’s when he received paper from Mingyu.

‘What did I do? Why I rested my hand on his chest? It’s really weird to be seen. Why, Hong Jisoo? Is it because...’ , Jisoo thoughts distracted by a voice that calls him.

“Jisoo hyung! What are you doing?”

“Oh hi, Seokmin. I’m just taking a rest here while randomly play my guitar.”

“But why you’re alone here?”, Seokmin asked out of his curiosity.

“Haha it’s okay. I believe that everyone else are on something too, right?”

“Hm... if that so, can I accompany you? I’m kinda want to practice singing, and even better if you can play the guitar, hyung. Hehe.”

“Oh sure. Then let’s start. I’ll play as soon as you sing.”, Jisoo gave his smile and the two are starting to sing together with guitar’s melody. Suddenly, the door began to open.

‘Great. It’s him. Again...’, Jisoo thought as he stopped singing.

Mingyu POV

It’s a break time and Mingyu is chatting with everyone he saw. He talked about many things and also joke about some things happened today. He comes to every room just to see if there’s anyone he can talked to. Then, when he opened a door, he saw Seokmin and Jisoo singing together. But it’s more like Seokmin singing and Jisoo playing his guitar to Mingyu.

‘He looks happy around Seokmin. Should I try to join them?’

As he closes enough to them, Mingyu watching them carefully. Seokmin realized Mingyu’s presences and smile to him. And of course, Mingyu replied his smile.

‘Why he doesn’t look to me? Is he didn’t realize that I’m here? It can’t be right? Since in front of him is a big mirror. Jisoo hyung...?’, Mingyu feels weird, but he keep trying to catch Jisoo’s attention by dancing or even join them by rapping. But still, Jisoo didn’t response to those actions.

Few moments later, Seungkwan enter the room while bringing a water bottle and join them singing. Jisoo realized his presences and smile to him. Not long after that, Hansol comes too and Jisoo smiles to him too. Then Hansol whispering something to him which he responded by a nod.

‘Why? Why Jisoo hyung didn’t realize my presence, or even look at me? Just a while ago, he smile to Seungkwan and Hansol, he even realize their presences as soon as they come. But when I come, he just continue to play his guitar and ignore me up until now. Why, hyung? What’s my fault?’, Mingyu asked so many questions to himself as he walk off the room.
