One of the perks of being an idol is the magazine photoshoots. Now, you might look like you're not really interested in fashion but you're actually very into it and have a good eye for it too. The group's stylist sometimes consults with you about the style for certain comebacks or performances and it makes you happy. You think of fashion as a way to explore more about yourself and you love photoshoots because it allows you to wear different types of clothing every time. That way, you could learn about which fashion style you actually like. 

When you don't have your own photoshoot to be excited about, you have your members'. You often post their magazine features on your personal Instagram and the fans dubbed you as the girls' hype woman, and you didn't even bother to deny it.

The most recent photoshoot was Irene's Damiani photoshoot. After your schedule in Switzerland, she made a trip to Paris and Italy for the shoot and although you were upset you couldn't be there, you made sure to show your excitement to her. She giggled and pinched your cheek while her own were painted in pink hues.

When the photos were posted, you couldn't help but give your genuine reaction right in front of the best woman of this generation (as named by Wendy). 

"Unnie, you look hot in those pictures, damn." You said the first thing that came to mind. How could someone look this good again?

Her cheeks immediately turned red as she slapped your shoulder, hard. The pain actually made you wince but you laughed loudly nonetheless, slightly scooting away from her so she couldn't hit you again. 

"Eli-ah!" She yelled but the reddening of her cheeks told you she wasn't actually angry. "Why would you say such things?!" 

You smirked, looking up at her standing figure. Irene actually stood up to look more intimidating. "Because it's the truth?" 

Before she could get another word in, Wendy ran out of her room to see what the commotion was. "What is going on?" She breathlessly asked.

You turned towards her, fingers pointing at your guardian. "Her new pictures for Damiani just came out and she looks hot! I told her that and she hit me and yelled at me instead," you ended your explanation with an adorable pout on your face that Wendy could only coo and came over to your side to pat your head lovingly. 

"Unnie," Wendy turned to Irene. "Why would you hit her?" She proceeded to turn towards you again, "Let me see the pictures." 

You grinned and moved to show her the glorious pictures while Irene could only gape and attempted to divert her attention. "Seungwan-ah-" Wendy wasn't paying attention though, she was much more focused on the pictures you were showing her.

"Daaamn, Unnie you look hot!" 

The similar comment made you laugh and Irene couldn't help but hit her too. "Seungwan-ah! Eli was saying the same thing, why would you say it too?!" 

Wendy winced from the hit but looked at her regardless. "Because it's the truth!" You and Wendy were basically soulmates at this point. Sorry, Seulgi-unnie.

Irene rolled her eyes and looked at the both of you in exasperation. "Eli said those things too! Whose child are you now, Eli-ah?"

"Eh?" Wendy couldn't help but become confused as she exchanged looks with you. Yours were more amused than confused though. 

You stood up and walked towards your guardian, putting your hands on each of her shoulders. She looked up at you with her doe eyes and cheeks still covered in rosy blush. You smiled warmly. "You look beautiful in those pictures and you are beautiful, Hyun-unnie. Don't forget that." You proceeded to kiss her forehead then let go of your hold to see her in all her blushing glory. 

You looked at the still-confused Wendy and back at Irene, and a playful smirk erupted on your lips. "I'll be in my room, Eomma and Appa." 

You let out giggles as you ran away before she could hit you again. All you could hear was a chorus of "YAH!" but you knew they were blushing. 

"That girl," Irene muttered, running her hand through her natural-length hair. "Just wait until I get my hands on you." 

Wendy chuckled, facing the leader. "She really went with the whole "parents" thing, huh?" 

Irene couldn't help but chuckle along with her. "Yeah, I guess I have my answer." 

Although most of the time it's fun, solo photoshoots can also be nerve-racking. It was Wendy's first solo shoot and she couldn't help but drive herself crazy with all the negative thoughts that kept popping up in her brain. What if she did badly? What if the director didn't like her? What if she-

"Unnie," your soft but stern voice woke her up from her musings and she jumped slightly in her seat. Her wide eyes faced your comforting ones. "Stop thinking so loud, I could hear your thoughts from here." You gave her a smirk to let her know that you were joking but she could read between the lines.

She let out a sheepish smile. "Sorry, dongsaeng-ah, I can't help it." 

You stood up from your seat and walked towards her, sitting on your knees in front of her. "What are your worries, Unnie?" You held her hands in yours, running your thumb on her smooth skin. 

She sighed defeatedly, squeezing your hands before pulling you up and basically forcing you to sit on her lap for cuddles. Well, you never deny cuddles so you made yourself comfortable by hugging her and running your hand through her hair to try and provide some comfort. 

She hugged you back. "This is the first time I'll be doing a photoshoot alone and I'm scared, Eli-ah," she sighed again and you could hear the frustration clear in her voice. "What if I mess up? What if the director doesn't like me? What if I do badly and everyone has to stay late to finish? I have none of you with me and I'm scared I won't do well." 

You closed your eyes and squeezed her in your arms, making sure to transfer some of your warmth to your favourite unnie. You pulled back slightly from the hug so you could see her in the eyes. 

"Unnie," you gave her your signature warm smile. "It's completely normal for you to feel this way, as I did for my first solo shoot." 

Wendy widened her eyes in surprise. You never told her this. "Did you really?" 

"Of course," you confirmed. "I was so nervous manager-unnie was considering giving me a calming pill or calling Joohyun-unnie because she didn't know how to calm me down anymore," you chuckled slightly at the memory and Wendy widened her eyes even more. 

"How did you overcome that?" 

You tilted your head in thought. "Well, I almost let her call Joohyun-unnie but I told myself I wanted to try and solve this so I won't become too dependent. I tried to think of ways that could encourage me and I found one," you looked at her in the eyes seriously. "I remembered all of you saying how proud you were of me and I told myself that I wanted to make you proud and that even if I find some hiccups along the way you're always be cheering me on because you're proud of me," you finished with a smile on your face. 

"We are very proud of you, Unnie, I hope you never forget that." 

Wendy sniffled before crushing you in a tight hug, making you laugh lowly. You rubbed her back in comfort. "Don't cry, Unnie, I'm here." Nevertheless, the tears were just pouring out of her eyes though she was more touched than sad. 

She was glad she told you. 

"Do you want me to be with you today?" 

She pulled back and wiped her tears away, a pout forming subconsciously on her lips. You cooed and kissed her forehead because she was just too cute. 

"Would you really?" 

You snorted. "Of course, Unnie," you sounded so offended she felt bad for doubting you. "What do you take me for?" 

"I know, I know," she whined cutely, putting her head on your chest childishly. You giggled at her act, finding it so rare and cute. She claimed to hate aegyo but she acted too cute sometimes. 

"Right," you sadly had to pull back and stand up from the embrace. "Let me tell manager-unnie that I'll be coming with you today. How are you feeling?" 

Wendy gave you her signature smile, dimple on display. You realised how alike you two actually were. "Still a bit nervous but much more confident. Thank you, Eli-ah." 

"Of course, Unnie," you grinned. 

You ended up staying with her throughout the whole shoot and you helped her through praises and constructive criticism, giving her suggestions on how she could pose and making sure she was comfortable. At the end of the day, she did tremendously well and you couldn't be more proud of your unnie. 

"I can't wait to post those pictures. The fans are going to be soooo blown away, I just know it." 

Wendy blushed heavily, letting out cute giggles while shoving you. What is with the parent line and shoving or slapping?

"Eli-aaah, you're making things up." 

You gasped dramatically, putting a hand on your heart. "What do you take me for? A liar? Unnie, the fans are going to freak out at how good you look. Mark my words."

She just shook her head in amusement while silently thanking you with her eyes. She was grateful for the praise. 

Well, you turned out to be right and you read through the responses with a smirk on your face, looking up at Wendy who was checking the responses over your shoulder. She just chuckled and kissed your cheek. 

"Fine, you're right. Happy?" 

You grinned. "Very."
