“We’re going to get caught!”
"Not if you stop giggling like a fool!" Despite those slightly harsh words, she couldn’t stop giggling herself, while holding Naeun’s hand and allowing the younger one to lead her to their final destination: Cube Entertainment’s practice room.
Perhaps, just like they concluded a few hours ago, it was a stupid idea. But, they also concluded they needed to take risks, to put themselves out there a bit more; otherwise, life would pass them by, and their youth would end up being completely wasted.
They took careful steps through dark and silent hallways. “Thanks God I look like that Eunji girl. I can’t imagine what would happen if someone caught us.” For a moment, she felt extremely pretty. It was amazing how heavens had blessed all APink’s members with surreal beauty.
“But, are you sure that they practice shirtless?"
Once the air above them was clear again, with no words hovering over it, she could feel her cheeks getting warm. Just the thought of six breathtaking boys―oh, heaven had surely blessed BEAST, too―with absolutely nothing covering their upper body made her blush.
"I don't giggle--" It's a halfhearted protest as her shoulders tremble with the giddy effort to suppress the laughter that threatens to spill out. She squeezes the latter's hand tightly in her own, childishly seeking any form of affection she can get (she's always been like that-- moreso with Hyerim, because she makes her feel....safe?)
In reality, this entire situation is ridiculous, but she's never been one to sacrifice some innocent fun for the rigor of sensibility. Some days seem to squeeze that excitement out of her, the pressure of perfection and preserving her image in the face of screaming fans and the chaos of it all. Today, she's perfectly content to throw it away.
"Well, for one, they'd scold me for sneaking someone in--" Though she casts a stern glance at the latter, her words bear no weight. "Yes, yes. Though I do think your nose is slightly larger than Ji's--" She stifles her laughter.
"You know, I'll be terribly offended if you decide to fawn over them instead of me-" She pushes her lower lip out at you, then elbows you lightly. "Yes, yes. At least they did the last time I came over--"
