NOTE***before y'all scroll down to read, I just want to say that this is one of the many chapters that i've enjoyed writing. so I hope you guys also enjoy the many tea spilt in this chapter as well as revelations and moments that will surely spill into the next chapter.

“Ok, so, you got her number?”

Hmmm...

“Ok, so you did.”

Yeah...

“Then why the aren’t you utilizing it ??!!”

Woah, ok. That escalated quickly, and y’all are probably confused since I just jumped right in. But, let’s continue since this caught my attention.

“Woah, chill out Junmyeon!” Sehun - oh hello dzaddy - cried out, obviously shook at the sudden insult coming from Junmyeon himself.

“Shut up Oh Sehun, Junmyeon’s right and you know it. You finally have Kim Jisoo’s number and you’re just to it?!”

Woah no, no, no, no!! That’s FALSE information. DO NOT listen to anything Byun Baekhyun ever says!

“WHO SAYS I’M TO IT YOU PIECE OF ?!”

Now believe me when I say this, but Sehun looked like he literally was about to burst into tears with what Baekhyun just said.

“CALM DOWN CHILDREN!!” Yixing yelled, standing up from the couch he was calmly watching them from before finally realizing that he needs to intervene before somebody gets killed in this throw down. “Y’all gave me for mispronouncing pepper and saying instead but y’all out here yelling about Sehun to a girls phone number.”

“IT WAS A FORM OF METAPHOR!” Baekhyun yelled in excuse, shaking his head.

“You could have used any type of figures of speech without having ual content attached to it !”

He’s right, Oh Sehun’s right. Makes sense.

Kim Jongdae who’s also here by the way along with every single one of the EXO members, sighed at the back of the room. “And you guys could really tone it down and stop yelling since we all are in the same room and not oceans apart don’t you think?”

“You’re really asking that when we have a whole Byun Baekhyun in the group?” Kim Minseok himself declared, not batting an eye while Baekhyun glared at him, obviously a little hurt.

Well since I love explaining things, let me just get on with it. This now takes place two days after that Gayo Daejun thing or whatever that is - according to Chaeyoung. Two days? Two weeks? Coincidence? I think not! Maybe the number two is their fate or something. Lmfao, I’m joking. It ain’t that deep. My thumb that’s currently writing this story in my phone just likes the letters T, W and O. Anyways, moving on with the bull.

Yes, two days. Two days after that “fateful night” of finally meeting Kim Jisoo face to face after that other night with the original up that started all of this. Two days and Oh Sehun still hasn’t done with her phone number. Well, he did put it in his contacts and put her name as “Kimchu” - I know, don’t ask me, he did it himself. Two days and the courage he had two days ago just suddenly evaporated in the air. I don’t know, it just did, even he is confused about it. I mean, he had the damn courage to ask Song Mino after it was revealed that he - along with s - are BLACKPINK’s undercover spies working for their boss, Yang Hyunsuk, himself. But two days later and he’s back to being a real . Like da Oh Sehun, what is wrong with you?

Oh, and also the fact that he had planned to ambush Kim Jisoo that night. You heard it right ladies, the - sorry Sehun - had the damn courage to ambush her that night but apparently the girls had to leave early for another schedule they had so they had bounced even before he could blink. And then POOF! She was gone. Again. God, he’s always too slow. However, on the bright side of things, Oh Sehun has her number. But really, that doesn’t matter even a little bit since the suddenly discouraged ‘lover boy’ hasn’t even done anything with it. God, I swear, this is worse than Kim Jongin.

Like at least Kim Jongin, a year ago, got Kim Jennie’s number right away and had hit her up quicker than she could heal from their rendezvous the night before. While Oh Sehun waited... Then waited.... Waited.... Waited again.. And again.... And again... Until two damn weeks had passed. And now he’s back to square one. Two days and counting.

Oh and yes, let’s all welcome our very own Zhang Yixing who has finally made his long awaited appearance! Our little angel that we need - especially Oh Sehun. He’s back, stronger than ever, but like, still the biggest uwu that could ever exist in the entirety of KPOP. And Sehun is more than glad that he is finally back and reunited with all of them - but secretly, Oh Sehun is more happier than any of the members combined. Why? Well as mentioned before, Yixing is an angel, the pillar, the solver to ones problem, the one who sees the good in the bad, the protector, and most importantly, the one that just pieces everything together. And none of them could say so otherwise, because it’s true. Zhang Yixing is who they need most. So now that he is back, Sehun can finally talk to someone that will listen without reprimanding him before he can finish talking and finally someone who would back him up. Well, he hopes so. Because there’s a lot of storytelling and catching up to do before Yixing can officially pick his side.

Also, I should mention a little of what happened after Sehun has asked Mino for Jisoo’s number (wow that was a mouthful). I know y’all be asking, “what the did Mino mean when he said he thought Sehun wouldn’t ask?” Well, Song Mino’s brain is not mine, so let’s go back a little bit since y’all aren’t the only ones that were taken aback by that, so was our protagonist Oh Sehun.

“Wow, finally dude, took you long enough!” Song Mino huffed, walking a little slower so that their members and colleagues wouldn’t hear.

Oh Sehun, actually taken aback by Mino’s readiness of giving him Kim Jisoo’s number, now has a confused look on his face. “What do you mean?”

Hearing this, Song Mino couldn’t help but roll his eyes at his friends obliviousness to the whole goddamn world that’s currently spinning around him. “YG people aren’t called as “cheap mouths” for nothing Sehun, we know things, we see things, we expose things,” he told him, his hand motioning some random ‘cause that’s what he does when he’s so into a conversation. “Well actually, you wouldn’t know. It’s an inside joke within YG people, but anyways, that’s not the point!” He said, kind of sounding annoyed.

“I didn’t even say anything.” Sehun mumbled, which was ignored by Mino.

“As I was saying,” the gossiper continued, finally getting back on track. “No secrets stays hidden within YG, no matter how hard you try. We know everything. Why?” He paused, looking at Sehun as if he’s the one who questioned him. “Good question.” He lamely answered himself which Oh Sehun just let go because he has seen Mino do this countless of times when they hang out. Really, the guy just gets too into a conversation that he wouldn’t even let you speak. “It’s because we’re so accustomed to being stuck with each other because apparently our image is scary to the point that other idols are too much of a to approach our es. So in return, we all just confide to each other, and when that happens, we start to just feel and see what each other are feeling or going through just by looking at our faces. So in short, we see through one another.”

Getting a little impatient at Mino’s long explanation, Sehun couldn’t help but let out a sigh. Like the dude is about to bounce ‘cause Song Mino is being dramatic and saying useless things when he really could just go straight to the damn point. “Ok, so, what’s the point of you saying that whole spiel Mino?”

“Ok wow, I’m helping you out and you’re getting impatient?” Mino said, sounding hurt but throwing that right away since he too, is getting impatient at himself. “Whatever, what I’m trying to say is, someone saw you two hanging out at the balcony at that after party two weeks ago.”

Oh.. . Oh no.

“I...” Sehun - currently shooketh - stuttered, his face suddenly going pale. “I... I don’t—-.. I’m—... It’s over! I’m over!! Oh no!” And then the panic starts.

“SSSHHHHH!!!” Mino quickly covered the idiot’s mouth, shushing him up. “No idiot, before you start crying I’m going to tell you that it’s not what you’re thinking!” He quickly said, his hand still over Sehun’s mouth whose cries are now muffled. “Seunghoon, it’s Seunghoon you idiot! Seunghoon saw you!”

Hearing this, Sehun’s fake cries finally halted to a stop, slowly pushing away Mino’s hand from his mouth. “Why didn’t you tell me sooner then ?!” He exclaimed, punching him on the arm while the other idiot winced.

“You didn’t let me finish stupid !” The other one retorted, kicking him on the leg while the other hunched over to rub it. “My god, maybe this is why it took you two damn weeks to finally ask.” Mino said, triggering Sehun who is still rubbing his leg from Mino’s kick a while ago.

“What’s that supposed to mean?!”

He cried out.

“What? Don’t tell me your baby is going to start crying because I just exposed you.”

That’s Mino having the time of his life teasing the out of Oh Sehun.

“Hey! I took two weeks because I wanted to give her time!”

Oh god, what a excuse.

“Uhh you could have really asked for her number the day after the party and kept it until ‘giving her time’ or whatever the your excuse is.”

That’s Mino actually making sense.

“Shut up!” Sehun glared, slapping him on the arm and - finally - stomping his way to the side of the artist area where s waited for him.

“Your better not take another two weeks Oh Sehun, or else I’ll actually regret giving Jisoo’s number to your self.” Mino called after him, in which Oh Sehun shrugged off, flashing his middle finger to Mino who just laughed in return.

So that’s it, that was how it went down and how Song Mino exposed Oh Sehun’s (serves him right though). And after that, Sehun was whipped the whole entire night - that’s according to Mino himself who obviously couldn’t keep his mouth shut to s - as he catches him steal glances at the shooketh Kim Jisoo who had her guard up the entire time, ready for any that would happen and always checking if her heels were put on properly just in case she needed to bolt and bounce herself out before anyone - Sehun in particular - can get to her. But obviously she didn’t have to worry, ‘cause the made it out safe and sound with a few scratches here and there due to some events that almost made her drop dead on the ground.

But all is good for her, except for Oh Sehun now who is experiencing his worse dilemma yet. After Mino had texted him Jisoo’s number later that night, he both felt ecstatic and nervous, but most of all, he felt himself almost his pants. Because first of all, what the hell is he doing? He could really just move on with his life and not do , but he’s really out here getting a number, a GIRL’S number in particular, because of what? Because he’s curious? Like, what type of lame excuse is that?! Second of all, just why in the hell is he even curious for? Like obviously, the girl herself is doing everything to avoid the out of him, and Oh Sehun wonders why the hell he’s doing everything in his part to chase after her when she doesn’t even want to be chased after? And third, why her? Like that’s not an insult, not at all. It’s just, why is it Kim Jisoo? Out of all the female idols he has encountered prior to meeting Kim Jisoo, why does he find more interest in her than any other girl?

It’s weird enough for Sehun to go to a party and it’s even weirder for him to stay. So why the hell did he stay that night? WHY THE HELL DOES IT HAVE TO BE KIM JISOO?!

“I can’t really help myself from being agitated since our very own member is too much of a puss to give out a simple TEXT to the girl he is OBVIOUSLY whipped over!”

Ok, so now we’re back to present time where Byun Baekhyun is being his legendary self.

“I AM NOT WHIPPED!” Sehun yelled out, obviously triggered AND in denial. Like come on dude, everybody sees it other than yourself. “I am curious! Not whipped!”

“Curious of what exactly?” Chanyeol pointed out, Baekhyun smirking beside him seeing how Oh Sehun blanked out.

Junmyeon, sensing Sehun’s sudden blankness from the other side of the room, suddenly felt intrigued at how he went quiet. So he got up from his seat and walked over to the others who are now as interested and are all surrounding Sehun. “Yeah, what ARE you curious about?”

“Urg, there’s really no point in asking,” Baekhyun said, breaking the five second silence that filled the room. “He’s obviously just going to hit us with ‘I don’t know’ bull.” He sighed, waving his hand in the air.

“Can’t a guy just be curious? There doesn’t really have to be a reason you know!” Sehun quickly said, after finally snapping himself out of the blankness in which his brain experienced after Chanyeol’s trigger-worthy question.

“That’s what people say when they’re in denial,” Minseok voiced out which everybody in the room all agreed on in their heads. “Seriously Sehun, just send in a text already!”

Sehun, having enough of this ‘send-it-you-puss’ bull, glared at s, letting out a groan. “Why are you guys so eager for me to do something about Kim Jisoo?!” He exclaimed, surprising the older members who would actually feel triggered since their youngest is currently yelling at them, but since it’s Sehun - their youngest - their letting it slide, only this time though. “Like you guys were up in my days ago and now you’re in for it?!” He then pointed at Kim Jongin himself, quietly sitting beside Yixing and not wanting to do anything with this conversation at all. “And Jongin! You guys were also up in his until this day, so what’s the difference?!”

“That’s because we know that you won’t it up further, because if you haven’t noticed - but like how the can you not? - you’re too much of a to up more so we’re not worried as much as we were with Jongin.”

As expected of Kim Junmyeon, always stating facts which Sehun can’t argue against.

“I’m right here you know.” Jongin mumbled, scowling in his seat but quickly retaliating as Junmyean shot him a glare.

“What makes you think that I wouldn’t?”

Sehun really out here tryna lose s trust.

“What makes you think that you would?”

Oohhh Zhang Yixing asking the right type of questions. Go off king!

“Ooooohhhhhh....” That was Byun Baekhyun and Park Chanyeol mumbling at the same time, watching this ordeal on the side line along with the other members who are too into the conversation to join along.

“Speechless?” Yixing teased the youngest, his right brow raised as a small smirk appeared on his lips.

Sehun hissed, done and over with s bull. “You guys are no help at all!” He whined, kicking his feet in the air as he slumped on the chair he’s currently sitting on, having no energy - losing it actually - to argue and keep up with s . “You guys are supposed to be giving me advice or whatever and making sure I do this right!”

“How are we supposed to give you advice when we don’t know what advice we should give?” Jongdae said, shaking his head at the latter. “Dude, you’re so confusing.”

“Here’s an idea,” Baekhyun started, his face lighting up as the words left his mouth, giving a small clap as the rest turned to him. And you should know by now, once that happens and he looking like he’s the happiest man on earth, that means he’s either going to say something really stupid or something really out of this world; there’s really nothing in between. “How about you pull a G-Dragon and invite her to our concert and perform a song with her and drag her into the encore too!”

Oh my god. This is dumb. Like really dumb. And Mister Park Chanyeol is shooketh by this sudden analogy - or idea - knowing full well what Byun Baekhyun is referring to.

“Pull a G-Dragon?” Yixing repeated, now also having little patience for Baekhyun. “Really?”

“You realize that that’s the dumbest thing that you have ever said right?” Minseok pointed out, his face full of judgment. “And you’ve said a lot of dumb things in your lifetime, but this one is up to par.”

“G-Dragon can pull that off because he’s THE G-Dragon, dimwit!” Jongdae added, literally and utterly done with Byun Baekhyun’s . “And why the hell did you even get that idea?! You want our careers to be over?!”

Jongin, suddenly confused, has his entire face all scrunched up, trying to relate to whatever Baekhyun just said. “Wait, I don’t get it?” He said, looking at s for an answer.

All of a sudden, Minseok quietly threw his phone at Jongin which the latter caught, a video already playing on it. “Don’t ask.” He said while Jongin threw him a confused look. “Chanyeol’s not over her.” He merely said, cautiously looking over at Chanyeol who - gladly - is too busy looking like he’s about to cry to hear what Minseok just said.

“Still?” Jongin whispered, his eyes going from the video playing on the phone to Chanyeol who is now staring up at the ceiling as if tryna control his tears from falling down. “It’s been years?” He pointed out after handing Minseok his phone back.

The oldest member raised his brow at the latter. “Says you,” he said. “Please tell me you did not just say that.”

Jongin huffed in his seat, his arms crossing against his chest, now ignoring Minseok. “Whatever.”

“Hey, at least I’m trying to help out!” Baekhyun yelled out from the other side of the room, oblivious to Minseok and Jongin’s whispering like the other members. “You guys are just giving him for not texting her! I’M giving out solutions!”

“You were literally the one that said he’s just to her number,” Kyungsoo - yes he’s been here the whole entire time, he’s just practicing his right to remain silent - reminded the idiot, not even looking up from his phone. “So what exactly is your idea of ‘helping out’?”

“Oh, he talks!” Baekhyun dramatically gasped, obviously wanting to get killed today.

And that might just actually happen since a shoe - yes a shoe - suddenly came flying across the room and hitting Baekhyun directly on the forehead, not foreseeing this attack since Do Kyungsoo himself is a skilled attacker who doesn’t have to leave his eyes off of his phone to complete an assault. You don’t need to be confused, it’s his talent. He’s born with it.

“You deserved that,” Junmyeon told him while Baekhyun - lamely - cried out in pain and a whole lot of exaggeration since that guy is full of it. “Anyways,” he continued, turning back to Oh Sehun who has been quiet all this time, perhaps still shooketh at Zhang Yixing’s simple - but trigger-inducing question - a while ago. “You either stop being a or continue to be one, your choice, not mine.”

“I knew you guys would stop practicing once I’m gone!”

Believe me when I say this, but once the door slammed open and their manager came barging in, all of them had a sudden heart attack and felt as if they were going to pass out from the sudden shock that shook the whole room to its core. Like he could have just walked in like a normal person, but really, whose normal in this story? Someone’s either high or ed up on something. There’s really no in between.

But anyways, it’s their fault anyways. Their asses should be practicing ‘till they drop dead on the floor since their long-awaited comeback is nearing, but they really out here talking about Oh Sehun - potentially - to Kim Jisoo’s phone number (but there are currently no evidence to back this up so let’s just leave it to our imaginations like the king Byun Baekhyun himself). And the fact that they’re just openly talking about this without being cautious at all about their surroundings you’ll think they’ll get caught soon, but so far - and I hope it stays this way for Kim Jisoo’s sake - nobody has taken noticed or really cared enough to eavesdrop. Why? Because it’s EXO, and who the would listen to these weirdos? Especially in their home ground that is SM Entertainment where they’re literally known as the second Super Junior due to their loudass nature and sarcastic selves that never makes sense? Yeah, who would listen to their bull?

Junmyeon - quickly making face and looking unfazed when in reality he’s about to himself - quickly turned to his manager with a smile. “We were practicing!” He exclaimed, clapping his hands while s stood up simultaneously from their spots and all following Yixing’s lead who is currently stretching as we speak.

“Yeah!” Chanyeol nodded, his arms over his head as he stretches them, finally getting over Baekhyun’s analogy a while ago about G-Dragon. “You just came in while we were resting a
