Outside the Warfield in San Francisco, hundreds of girls fangirled about seeing their bias in just a few hours.

 

“Oh my gosh we’re here~” Dana sang in line at the Warfield Theater in San Francisco.

 

“Yeah huh?” Mina nodded with a smile.

 

Meanwhile, 7 boys inside the Warfield were prepping for their first stop of their first U.S. fanmeet.

 

“She is here right?” Jackson asked the guys.

 

“She texted us just now that she’s in the building now hyung calm down.” Bambam shook his head. “This lovestruck boy.” He mumbled, going back to his phone.

 

“Seriously Jackson just perform your best. She’ll appreciate it either way.” JB patted a sighing Jackson on the shoulder.

 

“Yeah… I guess.”

 

“Mina are you excited to see your boyfriend?” Dana raised an eyebrow at her best friend.

 

“I haven't seen them in forever so yeah, I'm excited.” Mina nodded.

 

“Ohh a fan questionnaire!” Dana pointed excitedly to a board with sticky notes next to it. “Let’s do one! Or more.” She added creepily.

 

“Ok sasaeng calm down.” Mina took a sticky note and thought about what to write.

 

When the two were done, they agreed to not say anything and hope (like all the other fangirls) that their post-it would be seen.

 

>during the show>

 

It was time for the Q&A session, so the boys sat in a lined up fashion so they would be comfortable.

 

“I hope everyone in attendance saw the board outside to write their questions or comments to the members of GOT7, because we are going to bring them out now!” The MC announced as a staff member brought out the now colorful board to the boys.

 

“Wow that's a lot of messages.” BamBam smiled.

 

“Thank you iGOT7’s for all your love!” JB bowed.

 

“Now we are going to let the boys pick one sticky note each and answer it or show their appreciation for it.” The MC continued.

 

The boys all go up from their chairs and began looking at the board, making sure to grab the one that they wanted to share most.

 

BamBam sat down first reading his post-it carefully.

 

“There are none that are specifically to Jackson!” Jackson whined through his mic.

 

Everyone ‘aww’ed or laughed at the crazy member.

 

“Thank you guys for your kind words and support~” Mark smiled and waved as he took a seat with his post-it.

 

“OH FOUND ONE!” Jackson cheered after a few minutes.

 

“Took you long enough hyung.” BamBam joked as Jackson sat down.

 

The boys all went through their post-its, either answering them, or doing their requests.

Bambam, Yugyeom, and JB were all asked to dance so they did.

Jackson, Mark, Youngjae and Jr all took compliments and supportive messages from the board and kindly thanked those who put their names on it.

 

“Talk about fan service.” Dana sighed. “I was hoping they’d see mine.” She pouted.

 

“I’m sure they’ll take the rest of those home afterwards. It’s not easy being an idol and they’ll take all the support they can get.” Mina clapped as the boys prepped for the next song.

 

“Mm and you’re so sure your boyfriend will see yours?” Dana smirked.

 

“Would you stop calling him my boyfriend Dana? I told you I didn't give him and answer.” Mina sighed.

 

“Well the boy still likes you. I can tell.” Dana sat up properly watching the boys dance and sing.

 

Mina couldn't help but wonder at that point.

Why did he like her so much?

She was pretty basic in reality.

She was an everyday girl who happened to be friends with korean idols.

That was the only exciting part of her life.

So why her?

 

Performances came to a pause again and it was time for a ticket draw.

The members would pick tickets out of a box and the following ticket holders in the audience would come up and play a game with GOT7.

 

Numbers got called.

Girls cheered if their number was called.

Those who didn't, sighed.

Mina knew better than to hope she’d be picked amongst the hundred or so girls.

 

But low and behold.

 

“Mina.” Dana tapped her friend.

 

“Hmm?” The girl came back from daydreaming.

 

“They called your number.”

 

“What?”

 

“Go down to the stage they called your number!” Dana shook her dense friend’s arm.

 

“O-okay.” Mina nodded and made her way down.

 

“Girl didn't even know Jackson picked her number.” Dana shook her head with a chuckle.

 

Mina made her way to the line of other fans who got their tickets picked.

She snickered to herself seeing them flip out because they were now sharing the stage with their biases.

 

If only they knew how dorky these guys really were. Mina smiled to herself.

 

The girls proceeded to be introduced and state their bias(es).

At some point the guys hugged the girls if their names were called which the girls couldn't believe.

 

It got to Mina’s turn and she couldn't help but feel bad for Youngjae.

He wasn't called a lot so she named him as her bias.

His face lit up even more so after recognizing the familiar face.

 

“Ahhh kamsahabnida~” Youngjae came over to give her a hug. “Really noona that was nice of you.” He quickly whispered in her ear.

 

“Of course.” She nodded back.

 

The game started and it was musical chairs.

It was cute because all the guys ‘lost’ so no one would leave in the first round.

The music they played was all GOT7 so she danced as they moved and the guys couldn't help but smile at their carefree friend have a good time.

Mina didn't force herself into a seat to try and get to the next round, but she ended up being one of the last two.

She had resolved to let the girl win regardless, so when the music stopped, Mina stepped aside and let the girl sit.

Needless to say she was very very happy and Mina left the stage congratulating her.

But she got stopped.

 

“Miss, Jackson has personally asked about your sitting arrangements and would like you to move backstage.” A staff told her.

 

“Oh, I’m with a friend actually.” Mina replied quickly.

 

“It’s alright to bring her with you. Jackson just said he wants you backstage until the end of the show. after you get her meet me in the lobby and I will you two backstage.” And the staff left.

 

Mina blew a raspberry and sighed. “I guess I’m caught.”

 

She quickly left the area to find her friend and when she did, Mina summed it up as quickly as possible while pulling Dana along.

 

“Oh my gosh I get to meet GOT7?!??” Dana squealed.

 

“Hey hey keep your voice down!” Mina covered her friend’s mouth. “Crazy sasaeng fans might hear you!”

 

“Oh gosh let it be! Like they’d want to mess with a friend of their oppa’s.” Dana crossed her arms.

 

“They can get pretty crazy.” Mina bobbed her head to the side. They’d gotten to the lobby area and were waiting for the staff to come them.

 

“Miss Mina?” Someone asked.

 

“Yes?” Mina turned to the girl.

 

“I was asked to get you. I’m one of the volunteers.” She admitted shyly.

 

“Oh ok well we’ll just follow you then.” Mina smiled to the girl and she led the way.

 

They got backstage without trouble thank goodness, and though Mina had been around idols enough to not be all that excited anymore, she couldn't speak for Dana.

 

“Oh. My. God. Junior is right there!” Dana jumped a little.

 

“Dana would you calm down please! Good god you’re causing a ruckus.” Mina laughed while shaking her head.

 

“Don’t blame me for being a fangirl ok??” Dana didn't take her eyes off the stage for a second once the performance began again.

 

Finally the performance ended with the great JJ Project throwback of Bounce and even Mina couldn't dance and sing along to the GOT7 version.

Her and Dana laughed at how silly they looked and watched as the guys waved their thank you’s and goodbye’s to everyone who came.

 

“Excited to meet them?” Mina asked Dana.

 

“Uhm is that a trick question? And if anything you should know the answer without me telling you!” Dana shoved her friend.

 

“Noona!” BamBam yelled once he saw the girl.

 

“Oof!” Mina grunted at the impact of his hug. “Hey to you too BamBam.”

 

“I’m so glad you could make it! Oh is this your friend?” BamBam looked at Dana.

 

“Yes, BamBam this is Dana; Dana, BamBam.” Mina introduced the two.

 

“Are you ok Dana noona?” Bambam asked in slow English, to make sure he said all the words clearly.

 

Mina looked at her friend to see her frozen in place. “Ooh hahah yeah she’s a little starstruck right now. She didn't believe me when I told her I knew you guys.” She poked Dana to ‘wake her up’.

 

“Oh well we’ll have to get comfortable then!” BamBam decided.

 

“Mina!” The rest of GOT7 appeared.

 

“Hey guys! Great performance!” Mina thumbs-up-ed all of them.

 

“Thanks/thanks noona!” They replied.

 

“How’d you get back here?” JB asked.

 

“I asked her to be escorted after she was called on stage for the game. I wanted us to hang out a little bit.” Jackson revealed.

 

“Moving fast aren't we Jackson?” Junior teased.

 

“Eep.” A squeal came from behind Mina.

 

“Oh guys this is my friend Dana. She’s a bit starstruck right now, hence the state she’s in.” Mina explained.

 

“Oh hi Dana-ssi.” Junior waved to her.

 

Dana gripped Mina’s arm a little tighter at the sight of her bias acknowledging her.

 

“I swear to god Dana I will hurt you if you don't let go of my arm right now! Just be cool with them! GOT7 are more dorks than anything anyways.” Mina teased.

 

“They’re adorable!” Dana hit Mina in the arm, defending her favorite group.

 

“Finally a normal reaction from you!” Mina let out a sigh of relief. “I thought you were possessed or something.”

 

“It’s just hard to believe I’m actually in front of one of my favorite groups right now.” Dana breathed.

 

“Well let’s get some food and chill back at the hotel.” Mark suggested.

 

“Sounds like a plan.” Mina did the ok sign.

 

Once they got their food and settled into Mark and JB’s room, there wasn't much talking.

A lot of eating though.

 

“I don't want to state the obvious but man can you guys eat!” Mina gaped seeing how much food they downed. “Where does it all go??” She wondered out loud.

 

“Right?” Dana couldn't believe it either. “I finished eating a while ago and I barely just finished my meal.”

 

“Well we’re growing boys.” Youngjae stated.

 

“Ok that's true for the three youngest, but the 4 older ones have no excuse.” Mina raised an eyebrow.

 

“We work it off practicing for performances. I think we dance and sing more than we eat.” Junior said.

 

“Well that doesn't seem healthy.” Dana pouted.

 

“It’s not but it's part of the reason we’re skinny.” Mark admitted.

 

The conversation went on for a little while more, than people branched into different topics, so smaller groups were made.

 

Mina laughed as Jackson told her a story about BamBam trying to speak english to a cashier and it was not working.

 

“BamBam’s English isn't bad though!” Mina said. “I could even say he’s a little better than you.” She chuckled.

 

“How does that even make sense??” Jackson threw his arms in the air.

 

“I don't know, but the boy is learning faster than I’ve ever seen in an idol.” Mina smiled. “It’s nice to know he cares for international fans so much to even learn their language.”

 

“I know multiple languages! C’mon Mina give me something!” Jackson whined.

 

“I know you do Wang! I’m just acknowledging your other members that's all.” Mina shook her head. “Jealous much?” She teased.

 

“Ppffttt of course not.” Jackson replied. “But I did want to ask you something…” the mood suddenly getting a little more serious.

 

“Ok…?”

 

“Did you get my confession video?”

 

Mina looked at him for a second, then nodded.

 

“I know it’s been a while, but did you have an answer?”

 

“I thought about it.” Mina nodded. “About how a long distance relationship would be. How the fans would take it. If your company would even let it happen.” She listed.

 

Jackson tried hard to not let disappointment show on his face as every word seemed like a er punch to his gut.

 

“But it never got in the way of me learning to like you too.” She finished.

 

Jackson looked at her with big eyes. “Does that mean…”

 

“I mean dating will be a bit difficult, but if you’re serious about this relationship, I’m all in too.” Mina smiled.

 

“I’m sorry my confession couldn't be a little more romantic or memorable.” Jackson rubbed the back of his neck.

 

“I honestly wouldn't have wanted it any other way.” Mina smiled. “I wouldn't have realized how much I’ve grown to like you since we first meeting for Amber’s MV.”

 

“We’ll have to thank Amber for that MV meeting then huh?” Jackson smiled as Mina nodded, putting her head on his shoulder.
