Hiiii! Can I please request regarding the manager series hehe..
Can I request wherein it’s the manager’s 1-2 weeks leave and the members are missing her? But they “coincidentally” saw her playing volleyball in a friendly match with her old varsity mates. And they’re amazed because they didn’t know that their manager was a previous volleyball athlete and their main player at that.
Thank youuu!
Enhypen x manager!reader
The first day without you was manageable.
The second day was annoying.
By the fourth day, the dorm felt off.
It wasn’t because things were falling apart.
Technically.
Their temporary manager was capable.
Schedules were on time.
Meals were ready.
Transportation arrived when it should.
Everything was efficient.
But…
It just wasn’t you.
Jake stood in the kitchen and opened a cabinet.
“…Where are the electrolyte packets?”
The temporary manager looked over.
“In the pantry.”
Jake frowned.
“…No.”
“They're usually in the second cabinet.”
The temporary manager blinked.
“I reorganized everything.”
“…Oh.”
Jake quietly closed the cabinet.
“It feels wrong.”
“Niki.”
“You have rehearsal in ten.”
“I know.”
“…Then why are you lying on the floor?”
“…Because Manager-noona would have dragged me up by now.”
Jay stared at the grocery bags.
“…She forgot my coffee order.”
The temporary manager looked apologetic.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know you preferred it without syrup.”
Jay immediately shook his head.
“No, it’s okay.”
He smiled politely.
“…It’s just…she remembers.”
Sunoo found himself reaching for his phone.
He typed.
Sunoo: Look what I found!
He attached a picture of a cat sleeping on top of a vending machine.
He hit send.
Then froze.
He had forgotten.
You were on leave.
Almost immediately—
Manager Y/N: That’s the most comfortable employee I’ve ever seen.
Sunoo grinned so hard his cheeks hurt.
By the end of the week…
Everyone had become a little dramatic.
“I miss her snacks.”
“I miss her lectures.”
“I miss her saying ‘Drink your water’ every thirty minutes.”
“I even miss getting scolded.”
“You got scolded yesterday.”
“It’s not the same.”
“You guys are unbelievable.”
Their stylist laughed.
“It’s only been a week.”
“We know.”
“…”
“…We still miss her.”
A few days later…
ENHYPEN had a free afternoon after a photoshoot.
“Hyung!”
Niki pointed out the van window.
“Look.”
“There are volleyball courts.”
Several outdoor courts were buzzing with activity.
People laughed.
Music played from portable speakers.
Families sat under tents.
“A local friendly tournament,” the driver explained.
“If you want, we can stop for a few minutes.”
Everyone agreed almost immediately.
Fresh air sounded nice.
The members pulled on hats and masks before wandering toward the courts.
“There are a lot of people.”
Sunghoon glanced around.
Jake stopped walking.
“…Wait.”
“Hm?”
Jake slowly pointed toward the center court.
“…Doesn’t that person look…”
Everyone followed his finger.
A woman stood near the service line.
Black knee pads.
White athletic shoes.
Hair tied into a high ponytail.
Wearing an old university jersey.
Number 7.
She stretched her shoulders while laughing with the rest of her team.
“…No way.”
Jungwon squinted.
“…Manager?”
As if hearing them—
You turned.
“Oh?”
Your eyes widened.
“…Guys?”
The members froze.
“…Manager?”
“What are you doing here?”
You laughed.
“I should be asking you that.”
“You said you were taking time off.”
“I am.”
Sunoo looked completely confused.
“…Then…”
He gestured toward the volleyball court.
“…What’s this?”
One of your teammates slung an arm over your shoulder.
“There you are, captain.”
She looked at the boys.
“Oh?”
“You brought fans?”
Your face immediately turned pink.
“No!”
“They’re…”
You sighed.
“…The group I manage.”
“Oh!”
Her eyes lit up.
“So these are your kids!”
“We’re not kids!” seven voices protested.
She laughed.
“Really?”
“Because all she talks about is making sure you eat vegetables.”
You buried your face in your hands.
“…Please stop.”
Another teammate walked over carrying volleyballs.
“You ready, ace?”
Ace?
The members all looked at you.
“…Ace?”
You scratched your cheek.
“I…used to play.”
Jake blinked.
“…Used to?”
Your teammates stared at him.
“Used to?”
One of them laughed.
“She was our main player.”
“Our captain.”
“Our outside hitter.”
“The best player on the team.”
Another teammate nodded proudly.
“We made nationals with her.”
Jay’s mouth slowly fell open.
“…You never told us this.”
You shrugged.
“It never came up.”
“It never came up?!” Niki repeated. “You can do that and you never mentioned it?”
The referee blew the whistle.
“Teams!”
One of your teammates grinned.
“Come on, superstar.”
You sighed dramatically.
“I’ll see you guys after?”
Jungwon nodded automatically.
“…Yeah.”
Still completely stunned.
The match began.
The members expected…
A friendly game.
Relaxed.
Casual.
Instead—
WHACK!
The sound of your spike echoed across the gym.
The opposing blockers barely reacted before the ball slammed into the floor.
“Point!”
The crowd erupted.
“…”
“…”
“…WHAT?!”
Jake’s jaw hung open.
“No.”
“No way.”
Niki’s eyes sparkled.
“THAT WAS SO COOL!”
You dove across the floor without hesitation.
Saved an impossible ball.
Jumped back up before anyone else.
Called plays.
Directed your teammates.
Covered every position.
Your voice carried confidently across the court.
“Mine!”
“Outside!”
“Line!”
“Go!”
The patient manager they knew…Had completely disappeared.
Instead…You looked fierce.
Focused.
Competitive.
“…She’s scary.”
Sunoo whispered.
Jay nodded.
“…A little.”
Another teammate tossed the ball toward you.
“Back row!”
You sprinted.
Jumped.
The back-row attack flew past three defenders before they could even react.
Another point.
The crowd cheered again.
Heeseung blinked.
“…Did she just…”
“…Jump that high?”
Sunghoon answered.
“…She absolutely did.”
Between sets…
You walked over, slightly out of breath.
“Having fun?”
Seven pairs of eyes simply stared at you.
“…What?”
Jake pointed toward the court.
“…You’re insane.”
“I wouldn’t say—”
“You hit the ball so hard the other team apologized to it,” Niki interrupted.
You burst into laughter.
“It wasn’t that hard.”
One of your teammates overheard.
She laughed so loudly people turned to look.
“She’s lying.”
“We used to refuse standing across from her during practice.”
Another nodded.
“My arms would go numb.”
“We called her spikes ‘hospital balls.’”
You covered your face.
“…Please.”
“She’s being modest,” another teammate added. “She was the player every opposing team circled before matches. If you stopped her, you had a chance. If you didn’t…” She shrugged dramatically. “Good luck.”
The members exchanged stunned glances.
Their manager—the one who gently reminded them to eat breakfast, packed spare chargers, and fussed over whether they had enough sleep—had once been the intimidating star player everyone feared facing.
Somehow…
That made perfect sense.
She’d always looked out for a team.
Just a different one.
Now, instead of diving for volleyballs every day, she was diving into their hectic schedules, remembering their habits before they did, and making sure the seven of them could perform at their best.
As the referee called everyone back onto the court, Niki cupped his hands around his mouth.
“Manager-noona!”
You looked over.
He grinned proudly.
“Win it!”
You laughed, gave them a quick thumbs-up, and jogged back into position.
The seven members stayed until the final whistle, cheering louder with every point you scored.
By the time your team won the match, they were already talking over one another.
“We’re definitely asking for videos from her varsity days.”
“I want to know how high she can actually jump.”
“Can we convince her to teach us?”
Jay smiled as you accepted a small trophy with your old teammates, your smile brighter than they’d seen in weeks.
“I’m just glad…”
The others looked at him.
“…she’s getting to enjoy something she loves.”
For the first time since your leave had started, they didn’t miss you quite as painfully.
Seeing you laughing with your old teammates, doing something that clearly meant a lot to you, reminded them that before you became their manager…
You had your own dreams, your own victories, and your own team.
And they couldn’t have been happier to discover that part of you.

Jay x member!reader
Jay always insisted he wasn't clingy.
"I'm just efficient," he would say when the others teased him. "If she's already standing next to me, why would I walk somewhere else?"
No one believed him.
Especially not you.
Because every single time you looked up, Jay was there.
Need a bottle of water? He had already handed you one.
Feeling cold in the practice room? His hoodie somehow ended up draped over your shoulders before you even mentioned it.
Hungry after rehearsal? He quietly slid your favorite snack across the table with a casual, "They had extras."
"Extras," Sunoo echoed one afternoon, eyeing the single strawberry milk in your hands. "Really?"
Jay shrugged.
"They did."
"They literally only bought one."
"…Exactly."
The members groaned.
Today was no different.
The group had just finished filming for almost twelve hours straight. Everyone looked exhausted.
Jake had practically melted across the couch.
Heeseung had his eyes closed.
Sunghoon silently scrolled through his phone.
Jungwon was discussing tomorrow's schedule with the staff.
Ni-ki was dramatically complaining about being hungry.
You sat cross-legged on the floor, rubbing your temples.
Jay noticed immediately.
Without saying a word, he disappeared.
"…Where'd Jay go?" Jake asked lazily.
Before anyone could answer, Jay returned carrying two convenience store bags.
He crouched beside you.
"You barely ate lunch."
"I wasn't hungry."
"You are now."
He began unpacking everything.
Your favorite kimbap.
Banana milk.
The chips you always stole from him.
Even gummy candies you'd mentioned liking weeks ago.
You blinked.
"…You remembered?"
Jay looked confused.
"Of course I remembered."
"You said that like… a month ago."
"So?"
"So… that's a long time."
He shrugged.
"You said you liked them."
Like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Your heart nearly melted.
"You know…" Sunoo sighed dramatically. "I'd also like someone to remember my favorite snacks."
Jay didn’t even look up.
"I know yours."
Sunoo gasped.
"You do?"
"I just don't buy them."
"…"
The room exploded with laughter.
"That's favoritism!" Sunoo whined.
"It is," Jay said without shame.
As everyone continued laughing, you quietly opened the kimbap.
Before your first bite, you held one piece toward Jay.
"For you."
He looked at it.
Then at you.
A tiny smile appeared.
"You eat."
"You bought it."
"So?"
"So we're sharing."
He hesitated for exactly half a second before leaning forward and taking the bite directly from your chopsticks.
Jake slapped the couch dramatically.
"There he goes."
"There who goes?" Jay asked.
"The guy who acts cool until she's involved."
"I'm always cool."
Heeseung finally opened one eye.
"You smiled."
"I smile."
"You giggled."
"I don't giggle."
"You absolutely giggled," Ni-ki said.
"I heard it."
"It echoed."
Jay rolled his eyes.
"You guys are unbelievable."
"They're right."
His head immediately turned toward you.
"They are?"
You nodded, trying not to laugh.
"You get really soft around me."
"I do not."
"You do."
"I don't."
"You carried three shopping bags because I skipped lunch."
"…"
"You memorized my favorite candy."
"…"
"You gave me your hoodie this morning."
"…It was cold."
"It was seventy-eight degrees."
"…You looked cold."
The members burst into another fit of laughter.
Jay sighed dramatically before reaching over and gently flicking your forehead.
"You're supposed to be on my side."
"I am."
"Really?"
You smiled.
"I think it's cute."
His ears turned pink almost instantly.
"…Don't say things like that in front of them."
"Why?"
"Because now they'll never let me live it down."
Too late.
Sunoo had already pulled out his phone.
"Everyone smile! I need proof of Jay blushing."
Jay lunged across the couch.
"Delete that!"
"You admitted you're blushing!"
"I admitted nothing!"
You couldn't stop laughing as the room erupted into chaos, Jay chasing Sunoo around while the others cheered him on.
For someone who claimed he wasn't clingy, he sure made loving you look easy.

Jake x member!reader
Jake stood outside your dressing room for almost five minutes.
His hand hovered over the doorknob, but he pulled away each time he tried to knock.
You had just finished filming.
The staff had left. The hallway was almost empty, with only the distant sounds of cleaning crews.
Finally, he knocked.
"…Come in."
Your voice sounded tired.
Jake stepped inside and quietly closed the door behind him.
You were sitting at the vanity, still wearing stage makeup, mindlessly peeling tape off your fingers.
Neither of you spoke. Not because there was nothing to say, but because there was too much to say.
"…You wanted to talk?" you finally asked, meeting his eyes in the mirror.
Jake swallowed.
"Yeah."
He walked over but didn’t sit beside you like he usually would. That small change hurt more than either of you wanted to admit.
"I've been thinking…"
Your stomach dropped. Whenever someone started a sentence like that, nothing good followed.
Jake rubbed the back of his neck.
"I don’t think we’re working anymore."
Silence.
You blinked once, twice.
"…What?"
"I love you."
His voice cracked.
"I really do."
"Then why are you saying this?"
"Because loving you is starting to hurt."
Your heart stopped. Jake looked exhausted. Dark circles hung under his eyes from weeks of promotions.
"So many schedules…So many cameras…We barely get to be together. When we do…" he laughed bitterly. "We're too tired to even talk."
You slowly stood.
"So we’ll fix it. We always do."
Jake looked away.
"No."
"No?"
"You deserve someone who can actually be your boyfriend."
His eyes became glassy.
"I can't even hold your hand without checking who’s watching. I can’t comfort you when you’re having a bad day. I can’t celebrate your birthdays. I can’t tell the world you’re mine."
Every sentence felt like another knife.
"So…I think we should stop."
Your lips parted.
"You already decided."
It was not a question.
Jake stayed silent.
That was answer enough.
"So this wasn’t a conversation."
A tear rolled down your cheek.
"It was goodbye."
His breathing became uneven.
"Please don’t make this harder."
You laughed.
Except it sounded broken.
"Harder? You think this is hard? You’ve been preparing yourself for this. I found out thirty seconds ago."
Jake closed his eyes.
"I know."
"No."
You shook your head.
"You don’t."
Your voice trembled.
"You had time. I didn’t."
The room fell painfully quiet.
You walked toward him until you were only inches apart.
"I would have stayed."
Jake’s jaw tightened.
"I know."
"I would have waited."
"I know."
"I would have fought for us."
"I know."
"Then why aren’t you?"
Jake’s composure shattered.
"Because I’m tired!"
His voice echoed in the room before he quickly regretted raising it. He covered his face.
"I’m tired of watching you pretend we’re just coworkers. I’m tired of pretending I don’t love you. Of seeing you cry alone because I can’t even hug you."
His shoulders shook.
"I’m tired of feeling guilty every time I look at you."
The anger faded as fast as it came. Only heartbreak remained.
You stared at him.
"I never asked you to carry all of that alone."
"I know."
"You never gave me the chance."
Jake looked at you with red eyes.
"That’s exactly why. You’d choose us. You’d give up everything. And I…"
His voice broke completely.
"I can’t let you."
Your tears flowed freely now.
"You don’t get to decide what’s worth sacrificing for me."
"I know."
He reached into his pocket.
The matching ring.
The simple silver band you had secretly bought together during the tour.
He gently placed it on the vanity.
"I can’t keep wearing it."
Your chest hurt physically.
The tiny ring suddenly felt heavier than anything in the room.
You reached into your own pocket with trembling hands.
The matching one.
You stared at it for several long seconds before placing it beside his.
Two rings.
Side by side.
Just like always.
Except now…
No one would ever wear them again.
Jake couldn’t stop crying.
"I’m sorry."
He took one hesitant step forward.
"Can I…"
You already knew what he wanted.
You nodded.
He wrapped his arms around you one last time.
The hug wasn’t desperate.
It wasn’t passionate.
It was heartbreaking.
It was two people who still loved each other, holding on because they knew they had to let go.
You buried your face in his shoulder.
"I hate this."
"I know."
"I still love you."
Jake squeezed his eyes shut.
"I’ll always love you."
Those words should have felt comforting.
Instead, they hurt the most.
Because sometimes love wasn’t enough.
After a long while, you slowly stepped out of his embrace.
Neither of you looked at the rings again.
Jake reached for the door.
His hand rested on the handle.
He almost turned around.
Almost chose differently.
Almost stayed.
But he didn’t.
The door clicked shut behind him.
You stood alone in the quiet dressing room.
The two silver rings remained on the vanity under the bright mirror lights.
A perfect pair.
No longer belonging to anyone.
The next morning felt… wrong.
Not in an obvious way.
Nothing dramatic had occurred.
Everyone showed up for practice.
Everyone greeted each other.
Everyone laughed at Ni-ki’s complaints about waking up too early.
Everything looked normal.
Except it wasn’t.
Jake didn’t wait for you by the coffee machine like he always did.
You didn’t drift toward him during breaks.
When the stylists called everyone over, you both stood on opposite ends of the room without even realizing it.
It was so subtle that an outsider wouldn’t notice.
But to the members?
It was impossible to miss.
Jungwon frowned.
His eyes bounced between the two of you for nearly ten minutes.
Jake usually sneaked glances at you whenever he thought no one was looking.
You usually smiled whenever your eyes met.
Today…
Nothing.
No smiles.
No teasing.
No quiet conversations.
Just… distance.
He leaned toward Heeseung.
"…Do they seem weird to you?"
Heeseung had already noticed.
"I thought it was just me."
Sunoo followed their gaze.
His cheerful expression slowly faded.
"…They’re not talking."
Jay looked up from his phone.
"What?"
"They haven’t spoken all morning."
Jake walked past you on the way to the practice room.
Normally, you would lightly bump shoulders or exchange a quick smile.
Instead…
He quietly stepped around you.
You instinctively moved aside.
Neither of you looked up.
Jay’s eyebrows shot up.
"…Okay."
"That’s weird."
Practice began.
The choreographer corrected formations.
Everyone switched partners several times.
At one point, you and Jake were paired together.
The room became oddly quiet.
"Five, six, seven, eight!"
You danced perfectly.
Professional.
Precise.
Not once did your eyes meet Jake’s.
Not once did you crack a smile like you always did when you bumped into each other.
Even your chemistry looked… gone.
When the music stopped, Jake quietly nodded.
"Good job."
"Thanks."
That was it.
No playful teasing.
No joking.
Just… coworkers.
Sunoo stared in disbelief.
"…What the heck?"
During lunch…
It became even more obvious.
Usually, Jake would steal food from your tray.
You would complain.
He would grin.
Today…
He sat across the room.
Eating silently.
You didn’t even glance in his direction.
Sunghoon slowly set down his chopsticks.
"…Okay. I’m asking."
He looked at Jake.
"Did you guys fight?"
Jake froze for a moment.
"No."
Too quick.
Too rehearsed.
Sunghoon narrowed his eyes.
"You sure?"
"Yeah."
Across the room, Sunoo sat beside you.
"You okay?"
You smiled.
"I’m fine."
It didn’t reach your eyes.
Sunoo’s heart sank.
You were never this quiet.
That evening, the members gathered in the dorm living room.
Jake had gone for a walk.
You stayed behind at the company, saying you wanted to practice more.
No one believed either excuse.
Jungwon sighed.
"…Something happened."
Jay nodded immediately.
"They’ve barely looked at each other all day."
"They’re hiding something," Ni-ki added.
Sunoo hugged a couch cushion.
"…I don’t like it."
Heeseung remained quiet.
Then he spoke.
"They broke up."
Everyone looked at him.
Jay blinked.
"…What?"
Heeseung exhaled slowly.
"I saw Jake last night."
The room fell silent.
"He came back really late. He’d obviously been crying."
Sunoo’s face fell.
"Crying…?"
"I asked if he was okay."
"What did he say?" Jungwon asked softly.
Heeseung looked down at his hands.
"He smiled. And said…'Some things aren’t meant to last forever.'"
Silence.
No one spoke.
Because suddenly…
Everything made sense.
The distance.
The forced smiles.
The careful avoidance.
Sunoo covered his mouth.
"…No…"
Jay leaned back against the couch, stunned.
"They actually…"
Ni-ki looked toward the hallway where your practice room was.
"They really ended it?"
Jungwon rubbed his temples.
"…Neither of them told us."
"They probably didn’t want to," Heeseung replied quietly.
"They're trying to stay professional."
Sunoo’s eyes watered.
"They’re hurting."
"And they’re pretending they’re okay."
No one knew what to do.

Part 2 happy ending or sad ending
Starting a full time job next week
Jake x member!reader
Jake stood outside your dressing room for almost five minutes.
His hand hovered over the doorknob, but he pulled away each time he tried to knock.
You had just finished filming.
The staff had left. The hallway was almost empty, with only the distant sounds of cleaning crews.
Finally, he knocked.
"…Come in."
Your voice sounded tired.
Jake stepped inside and quietly closed the door behind him.
You were sitting at the vanity, still wearing stage makeup, mindlessly peeling tape off your fingers.
Neither of you spoke. Not because there was nothing to say, but because there was too much to say.
"…You wanted to talk?" you finally asked, meeting his eyes in the mirror.
Jake swallowed.
"Yeah."
He walked over but didn’t sit beside you like he usually would. That small change hurt more than either of you wanted to admit.
"I've been thinking…"
Your stomach dropped. Whenever someone started a sentence like that, nothing good followed.
Jake rubbed the back of his neck.
"I don’t think we’re working anymore."
Silence.
You blinked once, twice.
"…What?"
"I love you."
His voice cracked.
"I really do."
"Then why are you saying this?"
"Because loving you is starting to hurt."
Your heart stopped. Jake looked exhausted. Dark circles hung under his eyes from weeks of promotions.
"So many schedules…So many cameras…We barely get to be together. When we do…" he laughed bitterly. "We're too tired to even talk."
You slowly stood.
"So we’ll fix it. We always do."
Jake looked away.
"No."
"No?"
"You deserve someone who can actually be your boyfriend."
His eyes became glassy.
"I can't even hold your hand without checking who’s watching. I can’t comfort you when you’re having a bad day. I can’t celebrate your birthdays. I can’t tell the world you’re mine."
Every sentence felt like another knife.
"So…I think we should stop."
Your lips parted.
"You already decided."
It was not a question.
Jake stayed silent.
That was answer enough.
"So this wasn’t a conversation."
A tear rolled down your cheek.
"It was goodbye."
His breathing became uneven.
"Please don’t make this harder."
You laughed.
Except it sounded broken.
"Harder? You think this is hard? You’ve been preparing yourself for this. I found out thirty seconds ago."
Jake closed his eyes.
"I know."
"No."
You shook your head.
"You don’t."
Your voice trembled.
"You had time. I didn’t."
The room fell painfully quiet.
You walked toward him until you were only inches apart.
"I would have stayed."
Jake’s jaw tightened.
"I know."
"I would have waited."
"I know."
"I would have fought for us."
"I know."
"Then why aren’t you?"
Jake’s composure shattered.
"Because I’m tired!"
His voice echoed in the room before he quickly regretted raising it. He covered his face.
"I’m tired of watching you pretend we’re just coworkers. I’m tired of pretending I don’t love you. Of seeing you cry alone because I can’t even hug you."
His shoulders shook.
"I’m tired of feeling guilty every time I look at you."
The anger faded as fast as it came. Only heartbreak remained.
You stared at him.
"I never asked you to carry all of that alone."
"I know."
"You never gave me the chance."
Jake looked at you with red eyes.
"That’s exactly why. You’d choose us. You’d give up everything. And I…"
His voice broke completely.
"I can’t let you."
Your tears flowed freely now.
"You don’t get to decide what’s worth sacrificing for me."
"I know."
He reached into his pocket.
The matching ring.
The simple silver band you had secretly bought together during the tour.
He gently placed it on the vanity.
"I can’t keep wearing it."
Your chest hurt physically.
The tiny ring suddenly felt heavier than anything in the room.
You reached into your own pocket with trembling hands.
The matching one.
You stared at it for several long seconds before placing it beside his.
Two rings.
Side by side.
Just like always.
Except now…
No one would ever wear them again.
Jake couldn’t stop crying.
"I’m sorry."
He took one hesitant step forward.
"Can I…"
You already knew what he wanted.
You nodded.
He wrapped his arms around you one last time.
The hug wasn’t desperate.
It wasn’t passionate.
It was heartbreaking.
It was two people who still loved each other, holding on because they knew they had to let go.
You buried your face in his shoulder.
"I hate this."
"I know."
"I still love you."
Jake squeezed his eyes shut.
"I’ll always love you."
Those words should have felt comforting.
Instead, they hurt the most.
Because sometimes love wasn’t enough.
After a long while, you slowly stepped out of his embrace.
Neither of you looked at the rings again.
Jake reached for the door.
His hand rested on the handle.
He almost turned around.
Almost chose differently.
Almost stayed.
But he didn’t.
The door clicked shut behind him.
You stood alone in the quiet dressing room.
The two silver rings remained on the vanity under the bright mirror lights.
A perfect pair.
No longer belonging to anyone.
The next morning felt… wrong.
Not in an obvious way.
Nothing dramatic had occurred.
Everyone showed up for practice.
Everyone greeted each other.
Everyone laughed at Ni-ki’s complaints about waking up too early.
Everything looked normal.
Except it wasn’t.
Jake didn’t wait for you by the coffee machine like he always did.
You didn’t drift toward him during breaks.
When the stylists called everyone over, you both stood on opposite ends of the room without even realizing it.
It was so subtle that an outsider wouldn’t notice.
But to the members?
It was impossible to miss.
Jungwon frowned.
His eyes bounced between the two of you for nearly ten minutes.
Jake usually sneaked glances at you whenever he thought no one was looking.
You usually smiled whenever your eyes met.
Today…
Nothing.
