A Trip to Ahn Residence
Don't Deny Our r²π (HIATUS TT^TT)
"To home please James! Thank-you!!" A thumbs-up from the driver.
"Sorry for what?" I blinked a couple times as I watched him, it seemed ages until he answered.
"For being an...., today. I'm sorry." he muttered.
Kim Ellison apologizing? Wow.
"It's okay sunbae."
He looked up and smiled. My heart did a flip, he was so beautiful. Aisht. Yunjoon, get a hold of yourself! You only met him today!
"So..you and Chiseu are friends?" I asked. I grabbed the couch cushion nervously and watched the rainbow coloured light dance on the chandelier. It sent warmth spiralling down the staircase. I waited.
"You can say so," He began, and then stopped, searching for the right words.
"We, Ukiss, have all known her since, well...kindergarten actually. We practice here, you know, for our songs."
Ukiss? A band, perhaps?
"What is UKiss?"
~~~~~~
Eli's P.O.V
I explained our whole background story. Her eyebrows furrowed in focus, she was cute. She oohed and ahhed when I explained. Cautiously, I looked at the time on my watch. It was 6:30, I had better get practising again.
Just in time, the door to Chiseu's room opened, and the two stepped out, Chiseu and Kevin. They were laughing again, how they used to. Until Kevin grew feelings for her a year ago. Everyone could tell he was in love, but Chi was blinded. Aisht, it was painful to watch them be so close, yet so far.
"Yo! We better get practising again Kev!" I shouted. I saw him nod, and I stood up from the couch.Kevin waved goodbye to Chiseu and we tromped down stairs to practise again.

Yunjoon P.O.V
As Ellison stood up, the weight of the caution to say the right words lifted, I watched him walk downstairs along with Kevin.
Speaking of Kevin.... I turned to Chiseu.
"How'd it go?" I giggled.
Chiseu looked down. "Good."
"What did you do?"
She frowned at me, "Aisht! Stop it!" She whined.
"You loooove him~"
"Stop it."
"L-O-V-E~~~" I sang again.
And then... She pounced.
"Ahahahahah! Stop it!!" She tickled me. My lungs were aching for air, I was having a fit. I finally had enough breath to speak. "Okay! Okay! I give up, I'll stop!" I panted between laughter. Thankfully, Chiseu stopped.
She stopped and rolled her eyes.
"Finally.." She said while tugging me by the wrist. I dropped the cushion while walking. "Where are going?"
She smiled. "One word."
"MAKEOVER~~~"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After much protest.... I gave up.
I wrinkled my nose while walking through the door of a new room. It smelled of heavy hair products, fragrant aerosols and soap. The room had many mirrors, it looked like a salon. In a house? The tiled black floor made me slip, but I caught myself in time. Chiseu plonked me down on a cushy leather seat next to a vanity. I looked at myself. Chiseu was right, I needed a makeover. My hair hung in a ponytail, and my fringe was overgrown. Another day in Shinhwa looking like this, and I would've been sqashed.
I heard footsteps near the door and watched as Chiseu opened it.
In came her mother. I had just remembered, she was a hairstylist herself. Oh.
Chiseu leaned to her mother's ear and whispered something. I held the urge to laugh when I watched her expression turn from normal to shock in three seconds. She spoke, in english.
"Chi just told me you could speak english, so can we communicate in english. Korean is very hard for me to use, I'm no good." She had a cute american accent, and she blushed with embarrasment.
I nodded.
A fumble of equipment.
A readjusting of the chair.
Pointless whispering behind me.
Then, I feel the warm wash of water seep through my hair.
*Snip Snip*
I watch as my hair fall down in clumps, the little strands tickling my nose. She takes out some foil. What is that for?
And within a flash, she pulls the towel of my head. I gasp.

(A/N I know its Taeyeong, but bear with me, its hard to find the right pic ^-^)
My hair no longer hung dully on my shoulders. It was cut into feathery layers, a side swept fringe hid part of my left eye. Dyed with dark-brown streaks, it was lighter than before.
Chiseu squeals.
Her mother squeals.
I squeal inside.
"You look gorgeous!" Chiseu giggles in English.
I thank her mother as she walks out the room. She winks. How cute~ Chiseu blow dries my hair and talks.
"What did you talk to Eli about?"
Eli? Oh, Ellison.
"He told me about the band, he's in my class." My cheeks were red, I saw in the mirror.
"Do you...um.. like him?" She asks hopefully.
"What?! No!" I was appalled, she smirked. My hair was almost dry.
"Don't deny our r²π~~" she raps.
What does that mean?! She notices my confusion and said, "I'll show you soon."
She turns off the hairdryer and escorts me out of the room. I hear her turn off the light.
*Flick*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I pick up the spoon.
I plunge it slowly, so it doesn't make a sound. Slowly, I pickup some brocolli and place it in my mouth. I bite.
WHOOA! This was delicious, even for brocolli. It took all my self-control to not grab the plate and hork down everything. I had to make a good impression to CHiseu's family.. and UKiss.
My eyes scan across the dinner table. It was long and narrow, like our school cafeteria, or a medieval dining room. They were eating normally, like a family. Ukiss was talking about future songs, except for Ellison, who was staring at me. Maybe it was my new hairstyle. I blushed.
Chiseu and her family talked about their day, her father hadn't arrived yet.
Chiseu stared at me weirdly, "Why are you eating like that?" she questioned. I noticed I ate a little too slowly, and carefully. I blush again.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Dinner soon was finished and it was already eight. I was dragged again by Chiseu, who was following the boys. What was it this time?
She led me to a... garage? It was filled with instruments of all sorts, strings, brass, percussion. Chiseu sat on a couch and beckoned me to come.
The boys get into their positions.
A piano plays crisp, clear, but sad.
Eli- Yo, listen up. This is my tragic story. Just to break into my heart. Check it. (Eli rapping? I thought. Thn, the song started, and I shut up.)
Hoon - I still can't erase you
Again and again I think of you
I miss you too much
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night
Hoon - The raindrops are knocking at my heart's window
The place that you've left
I miss it too much
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night
AJ- The view of your backside walking through the rainy path/
I can't do anything but stay
Everyday I keep regretting it, I'm sorry/ I pray
I want you to be back
I can't, I can't touch you/ I can't bear the day without you
Can't hold back the tears
again I can't forget you/ Till when will I be
like this
Soohyun- I still can't erase you
Again and again I think of you
I miss you too much
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night
Soohyun - The raindrops are knocking at my heart's window
The place that you've left
I miss it too much
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night
Kiseop - Oh tonight again, tonight again her
Eli- I'm thinking of you I can't sleep
/ why did I turn on this love show
Your path and mine are far apart/I was the
slave of to this love
Why did we fight why were we like this
Did you lose the sight we were in love
Why am I lost in this time I'm the fool
The one I need is you
Dongho - Your shoulders are slumped/your sighs
break the ground under you
hitting your frustrated heart/ With two hands together
you start to pray
I understand your feelings/let's forget
the bad memories
(I'm sorry) I know how you feel/ I can't say anything but 'sorry'
Kevin - I still can't erase you
Again again I think of you
I miss you too much
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night
Kevin - The raindrops are knocking at my heart's window
The place that you've left
I miss it too much
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night
Kevin - Oh tonight again, tonight again
Eli, AJ, Dongho- Y&I don't cut our ties/ don't deny our r²π
Come to me it's okay now/ We will restart everything again and again
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night
Kevin - I still can't erase you
Again and again I think of you
I miss you too much
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night
Kevin - The raindrops are knocking at my heart's window
The place that you've left
I miss it too much
U-Kiss - I can't sleep at night

The song finished, and I was still humming along. Even after Chiseu dropped me back home. I told my parents vaguely about my day, I was too tired. Last thing I remember was being in my own bed, my eyelids heavy.
Don't deny r²π
The phrase rang in my dreams.
