“She’s crying?” Seyeon commented for her spot on the lounge, carefully slumped into the plush cushions so she could online shop in peace.

“Jiyeon cries at just about anything. She cried when Minah returned with only white chocolate.” Seoyul commented, not taking her eyes off the television that was screening the newest episode of Running Man.

“She hates white chocolate.” Misoo imputted, stopping her skipping in the free space of the lounge having been kicked out of her own room by said member. Jiyeon who’d arrived back from her outing and pulled out her phone with little words to the other members, fully focused on something else entirely as she kicked them out.

“How about the time she cried when her mum called about which colour she’d prefer for a phone case?” Seoyul pointed out again.

“Unnies homesick?” Sooyun imputted, appearing around the corner of the kitchen snacking anything and everything in sight.

“She said she doesn’t get homesick, especially because she went to boarding school.” Jungah disagreed, also lounging around in her pyjamas watching television with Seoyul.

“Is anyone going to check on her? It could be bad news?” Sarang asked also stopping her skipping session with Misoo also being kicked out of their room, and cutting off any futher more debates about Jiyeon’s crying habits.

“What do I do!” Jiyeon’s broken voice rung out, said woman bounding into the room and flopping straight onto the members of the couch. Not caring whether she was on top of them or not.

“Speak of the devil...” Seoyul commented, moving to push the crying girl off her lap.

“What’s wrong Twinkle Toes?” Misoo asked, moving in to sit down on the ground in front of the crying girl who’d firmly stuck herself down onto the lounge. The members slowly crowding around said girl, waiting for the answer.

“I said yes! I don’t know if I should’ve, what if it...” She wailed, shifting around to face the roof of the dorm.

“Said yes to what?” Seyeon asked quietly, gentle pushing her laptop from out under the member. Her eyes lighting up a little seeing it uncrushed by the sudden pile up.

“To Lu Han! He was here for his lawsuit, and we met up and went out. And well he, he proposed- and, and I just said yes!” Jiyeon blurted, breathing in raggedly as she told them. “I didn’t even think, what would happen to us. To AEON? I’m so, so sorry...” She apologised, hands moving to cover her eyes as tears threatened to leak even more.

Surprised wasn’t even enough to cover the emotional spectrum of the group as they took in what she’d said. Some part of them said to be happy, fervently happy for their friend and the love of her life. And other remain critical and defeated with the news, unable to think of what it could possibly do to their career.

Everyone was a little frozen, while they knew that she was happily in a relationship with Lu Han. They hadn’t really figured out how deep it ran, only getting rare glimpses on even rarer occasions. Sooyun, surprisingly, was the first to react to the news of the proposal.

“When are you getting married?”
