sleepy hollow.

june was in a weird state at the moment, and he couldn’t quite explain why. perhaps it was because male trainees came and went with the seasons in sphere, and it was hard to bond with anyone he could potentially debut with. he felt especially alone these days, and the only trainees he really could confide in were the female ones. hence why he finds himself scooting tentatively into the space across from seulgi at the cafeteria tables. 

“hey~” he tries to be cheery about it, twitching out a small smile for her as he seats himself. his lunch is rather plain - a sandwich, an apple, some rice, and a tiny tin of soup. “mind if i join you? i don’t know who else to buddy up with right now.” he glances around the room, scanning to see if there was anyone he was closer with than seulgi, but it dawns on him then that seulgi is probably his closest friend in sphere regardless. they weren’t best friends by any means... what did that say about him?

back to my place.

The company barbecue has been fun and all, but after finding Seulgi there, Shiah had only one thing on her mind. She was hardly able to focus on anything else, if ever parted she’d always steal glances from her until they were finally permitted to leave. That was when she scooped Seulgi up and brought her back here, to her home, for that date she had promised. 

Shiah’s home was a penthouse in Gangnam. She had been open with Seulgi on their first date about where she came from and all that but she half-expected this to still be a shock to her. She slips her shoes off, tossing her keys into the nearby dish for them, and moves to get her house slippers on and get a guest pair for her lovely date, setting them before her and straightening up with a smile. “Welcome to the Yoo Residence, or should I say castle I guess.” She chuckles softly, gesturing towards the open concept living room and dining area. “Don’t worry, it’s just me and my dad who live here and I believe tonight is his big date night with... Jiho? Or was it Jinho? I can’t remember, he has a new boyfriend every month.”

golive.

Junmyeon hadn’t been as active on social media ever since he signed with Sphere. He had just graduated, so exams had eaten up his time, and that on top of trainee life? It hadn’t left a lot of room for things like updating instagram. He used to do a lot of instagram live streams though, and he didn’t see why he couldn’t continue doing them for his followers. Now that he had the time... why not? 

If he was coming back to it, though, he needed a co-host of sorts. Someone kind and fun who could really liven up the stream and who would be enjoyable to watch. The first person who came to mind? Seulgi. They had become friends, at least he liked to think so, if not then they were definitely friendly with each other. She’d go for something like this, right? He couldn’t see why she’d say no. He finds her during independent study during training, slipping on into the studio he finds her in and approaching her with a big smile. “Hey Seulgi! How’s it going? I, uh, I wanted to ask you for a small favor, if that’s okay?”

have you seen my pokeballs?

It was a little ridiculous, honestly. The hazing had been really funny to him, and he had been a good sport about it, but... he had a weakness for plushies and he had wanted to keep a couple of the plush pokeballs as a keepsake. He was sentimental that way, he liked having little tokens of memories to keep and look at to remember and recall those important moments. His first day at Sphere qualified as that. 

He had forgotten to take home his little collection the first day though, having stashed them in the corner of one of the practice studios the trainees used. It was the following day and he wanted to find them before the trainers could get to them and throw them away. He needed to remember which room they were in though, and not being able to find them was making him panic a little (unnecessarily so, they were just plushies, but this was Junmyeon we were talking about). He comes across a senior trainee and he looks to her with pleading eyes, stress evident in his features. “Sunbaenim, please help me, I can’t find my pokeballs!”

i found love.

At first Shiah hadn’t thought too much of this party. To her it was just another way for the coaches to assess the trainees, so of course she was on her best behaviour. She was a Royal trainee first, before anything else. But, seeing her friends around had been quite a treat, and her resolve melted a little bit - she was more relaxed as she made her way around the party and said hi to everyone. This was relaxing, to an extent, and she could see the merit in it now. 

Of course, things went a step further when her eyes fell on a certain someone, and it occurred to her that they would both be here. Even from across the space she was captivating. She was beautiful, truly, a small smile forming on her lips, meant for herself as she admired the other girl from afar. She didn’t make herself known just yet, she just wanted a moment to truly take her in, committing the moment to memory before she finally made her way over, wary of the trainers and coaches who were in the area. 

She made her way over, dressed in a pair of white shorts and a layered pastel blue blouse with cold shoulders and green flowers patterned on it, her hair down and resting over one shoulder (it was really getting long now, she might be due for a cut). She gently touched her shoulder to get her attention, her smile brightening once their eyes met. “Hey you. What are you doing looking so pretty, hm? You must be trying to stop my heart.” She teased, letting her fingers just skim over Seulgi’s arm as she dropped her own back to her side. “Are you enjoying yourself?”

Happy Birthdayyyyyy

Sometimes Seulgi was a bit too impulsive for her own good and maybe this would be one of those times, but she felt like she really needed to do this.  Heading right over to Shiah’s apartment once her practice day was over (maybe she left a little early for a “test” for school), she took the chance to enter when another resident left the building to slip inside. She hurried up to the apartment, wondering if she would find her girlfriend there already, maybe taking some time off for herself. 

She knocked on the door, for some reason half expecting to see Shiah standing there when she opened the door, but she was met by Jinhae instead, who seemed surprised to see her there.  She informed Jinhae that she was there for Shiah’s birthday, but was told that she hadn’t arrived yet.  Jinhae invited her inside, which Seulgi accepted, taking a seat in the living room area, on the couch, setting down a cake box and a gift bag next to her. 

After waiting for a while, Seulgi was beginning to wonder if maybe she should have texted Shiah instead of just showing up like this, she had expected her to show up around the time that she normally would have gotten out of practice, but it didn’t seem to be the case.  At this point, she didn’t want to ruin the surprise, so she still didn’t text.  What she did do, however, was close her eyes, which was her biggest mistake yet, as soon she was asleep, sitting up on her girlfriend’s couch, not sure if the other girl would be home soon, or if someone else might show up instead.

Shiah’s birthday hadn’t really ever been something celebrated to the nines. She wasn’t expecting anything special, even though he father had surprised her last year. This year he had had the decency to give her the heads up that he probably wouldn’t be able to do anything because of work, so she didn’t bother coming home early from training. In fact, she had even stayed a little later to get some extra practice in. Why not? It was just like any other day.

Or so she thought. 

It hadn’t dawned on her until she got back home and found her sleeping on her couch that Seulgi might’ve planned something for her. She just wasn’t used to expecting anything from her loved ones, but Seulgi had proven yet again that she was the most important person in her life, and meant the most out of any loved one she had. Seulgi showed her what true love was, what true appreciation was, so when Shiah found her sleeping there, she took a silent moment to herself and allowed herself to be emotional, crying softly to herself. They were happy tears, but still, she wasn’t one to show her emotions outright usually. 

Once she had herself together again, she made her way over, dropping her stuff off by the end of the couch and scooting in next to Seulgi on the couch. She curls up, wraps an arm around her waist and lays her head on Seul’s chest, closing her eyes and humming softly. “Hey baby~” She coos softly, getting ready for a much needed nap. Even just them napping and cuddling would be an awesome birthday in Shiah’s books.
