Secret SantaYou walked back to Changmin's house and reread the note over and over. Why wouldn't he sign it with his real name? And why did he choose to use the pseudonym "Blue Dragon"?
You returned to the living room and sat on the couch as you waited for your cousin to come home. Thinking back on the encounter, you realized the "Blue Dragon's" voice was very familiar. Perhaps he was an idol. Or maybe he was someone you met before. Frustration kicked in and you suddenly felt angry for not looking at his face. It's not like you were going to see him again anyway. After some minutes of whining and screaming into your pillow, you heard the door unlock.
"Hi, Heejin. You should get ready, we're gonna meet my friends soon," Changmin said.
You looked down at your outfit which consisted of a plain white v-neck, denim vest, and faded gray jeans. "What's wrong with what I'm wearing?"
"Well, nothing," he began, "but I mean you were wearing that when you got off the plane. Don't you feel like changing?"
"Hmm, good point. I guess I should wear something nicer if I'm gonna be meeting friends of the legendary Shim Changmin."
"Hey, stop that! Don't worry, my friends will like you. Plus you even met a few of them before. You might remember them."
"Really? Who?"
"Just get ready, please," he politely ordered. "You'll know when we get there."
"Fine."
You walked into your room and opened your suitcase, looking for an outfit that would impress your cousin's friends without overdoing it. You looked at your t-shirts and jeans and thought casual would be the way to go. But then you looked at your dresses and skirts and considered looking pretty and cute. It wasn't easy since Changmin didn't tell you who they were. Eventually you decided to go for middle ground- you picked a very casual striped dress and paired it with a black cardigan, along with your blue TOMS.
You went back to the living room. "Is this okay?" you asked him.
He gave you a thumbs up as he grabbed his keys.

Once you got there, you were shocked to see the people on the couch. They were all idols. You thought you'd be meeting his friends from school or other random places-
