3 Weeks Before~


Loud music blasted through the practice room of the YG building. Big Bang was once again practicing for the upcoming release of their new album for the new year. With the new songs, came many hours of practice to get the live concerts perfect. Jiyong let out a sigh once the track stopped and he leaned over and rested his palms on his knees while trying to catch his breath. The group had been practicing for hours now and it was almost three in the morning.

Jiyong moved away from the group and it's back up dancers while they stood around to catch their breathes. He headed over to the bench across the room and flopped down. Grabbing the water bottle that was beside him, he removed the cap and took large gulps of the liquid inside. It was refreshing and he was glad they could finally have a break. Because he was the leader; he was always the busiest. Even when it came to practices, he had to be at his best and watch the other members to make sure they were doing it right. This dance seemed to be a bit more difficult and he knew it was taking a toll on some of the members who were not so good at the dancing.

His eyes shot over at Seunghyun who was away from everyone else and watching himself dance in the mirror. He decided not to take any breaks because he was the worst dancer of them all. He had to give him credit, he was a really hard worker.

''Move your arms more.''

Jiyong called out across the room from him and motioned just how he was to do it. Seunghyun watched him through the mirror and copied his motion; getting it perfect. Jiyong smiled and gave him a thumbs up until he noticed Seungri was no longer beside him. The maknae was another member who struggled with the choreography and both him and Seunghyun were working together tonight to try and keep up with the others.

He was about to grab his phone to call the youngest member until he felt his presence beside him. He looked up and noticed the slight fearful look in his eyes.

''Hey, what's up?''

Jiyong said and gave him a small smile. He wasn't going to question where he went, tonight he was not going to be the tough leader he usually was. This seemed to calm Seungri a bit and Jiyong slid over while patting the empty spot next to him. Seungri quickly sat down and Jiyong raised a brow at the rolled up paper that was in his hand. The younger member noticed he had saw what was in his hands and held it out to him.

''I wanted you to look at this.''

Jiyong took the paper and unrolled it and looked at the large article that was splashed across the front paper. It was about him visiting some unknown club and Seungri started to try and sound out the English name. Ji of course was not paying attention and instead, was quickly reading the information. It seemed he had went to a club late one night and got in a fight with someone at the club. He was then kicked out and stumbled out of there drunk. But Jiyong knew it had been nearly two months since he last been to a club and he never went alone. Not to mention, he would never fight with someone or leave a club drunk; he would get flack from his manager if he did that and his image would look bad.

''Hyung, when did you have time to go to a club?'' Seungri pouted while placing his hands on his hips in jealousy.

''I didn't. Seungri you know I've been busy in the study recording and writing songs. On my free time I'm always in the gym or in here practicing.''

''Then who is it then?'' He shot back.

Jiyong nearly faced palmed at all this and he sighed in frustration. He moved the paper closer to his face and observed the picture closely. It did sort of look like him, but the clothing they were wearing was not something he wouldn't think of wearing. His nose scrunched up in distaste and he rolled the paper back up and shot it back in Seungri's lap.

''Look, it's not me. It must be someone that looks like me.''

He got up and started to walk away until he remembered something important. He turned around quickly and looked back at Seungri.

''Don't let the others know, okay? I'm sure all of this will be forgotten.''

So he thought.....
