It was in the moments between late night and early morning, and YeongMi was sitting outside, staring at the moon and it's reflection in the water. Her phone was loosely in her hands, as she had just sent a message.

- Hey, Seungkwan, are you up?

- If I say no, will you believe it?

- Dumbass, you already proved that you're up.

- So that's a no then?

- Fuck yeah it's a no

- When did you start swearing so much

YeongMi gripped her phone a little tighter, her fingertips turning an unnatural white under the grip.

Please don't ruin this whole reconciling with Seungkwan thing. It's not entirely his fault that you haven't been close in years. You could have tried harder to reach him, just like he could have tried harder to answer.

She took a deep breath and nodded to herself.

It's not that big of a deal. He didn't mean it in a bad way. He didn't mean it as if she had changed so much, and he didn't like it -

-MiMi?

- Kwannie?
- Probably around the time that you became a little bitch

- Excuse me, I am not a little bitch.
-I'm a big bitch.

YeongMi snorted, rolling her eyes as the irrisistable smile rose to her lips.

Her brother was quite the character.

She had missed him a lot.

- I don't know, I may be a bigger bitch.
- Apparently I'm the most hated girl at my new school.
- And let's be honest, all the schools I've been to.

- And how many is that?

She used to share the number easily, with a proud smirk and a haughty stare. It was like she was stating how many wins she had in a game, or how many times she had placed high in class.

But now that it was her brother asking, she felt shame creeping up her back and gripping her throat. She had disappointed him with her bad behaviour.

- This year or in total?

- Jesus, YeongMi

- Don't you mean, Jisoos?

- God no, not you too please

- What's the matter Kwannie? You don't want me to be like your fans?

- No, it's weird because you're my sister. I love them, but some of the fans say some pretty fucked up stuff

- You should hear me.
- Actually no, please, never.

- I never want to hear you saying those inappropriate things.
- Now you have it stuck in my head damnit.

YeongMi laughed, feeling a slight blush of embarrassment rising up. She was his little sister, and she didn't want him hearing her flirt any more than he didn't want to hear it.

- QUICK WHO WAS THAT TALL BEAST THAT ASKED ABOUT FUCKING?
- FAST BEFORE HE -

-Was that Jeonghan?

- Apparently he doesn't know how to text you off his phone.
- Wait, nevermind. Apparently Vernon broke his phone.

- NOOO! But I want to talk to him

- Wow, rude. You want the pretty boy more than your perfect, talented, spectacular brother?

- You should let other people say that stuff about you, it works better.

- They do, have you ever even heard my fans? I am the best man ever

- Whatever baby
- Maybe I'll send you a plushie shark in the mail
- Then we'll see who the man is

- I think you gave your brother traumatic flashbacks.

- Good.
- JEONGHAN!!

- YEONGMI!!

- The beast boy's name is Namjoon.

- He tryna hit it though?

- 1. Don't ever say that again.
- 2. He already did.
- 3. YOU BETTER DELETE THAT TEXT

- What text?

- Exactly

- Oh wait, you mean the one about where you fucked the beast boy?
- That one?

- Delete it hoe

- You're the hoe, bitch
- I mean you're fucking the beast boy
- Sorry, Namjoon

- You're still a hoe. Get better insults, cousin it. 

- I'm going to pretend I know what that insult meant.

- Look it up loser.

- No. I'd rather just continue being beautiful

- Goddamn you and Seungkwan are so arrogant. Is this what idol life does to people? Even little Woozi baby is gonna be a fuckboy

- Ha! You got a lot to learn about 'little' Woozi.
- Also, we have fans always complimenting us. What's your excuse?

- Ouch. You hurt me.
- SIKE BITCH YOU THOUGHT

- Are you ever going to grow up

- I'm pretty grown up. I mean, have you seen my tits? Not any tits for kids, they grown.

- Eh, they're okay.

- Whatever, just cause they're not man boobs, you don't like them.

- Maybe I just don't like you.

- Fine, bye bitch.

YeongMi laughed, setting her phone down again.

She looked up, intending to see the moon.

Instead, she saw the dark shadow of a person.

With a low yelp, she kicked her foot out, hitting their knees and sending them falling to the ground.

She stood up quickly, shining her phone screen to find Namjoon lying back, shock on his face.

"Jesus christ you idiot, you can't just sneak up on me like that!"

He sat up, an embarrassed look on his face as he shuffled over next to where she had been sitting.

She sat back down, her heart still pounding.

Their legs brushed against each other, and YeongMi smiled slightly, relaxing her legs so they pressed against his more.

"I was going to ask you if you wanted to swim, but it's nighttime, and that's kind of the worst idea ever."

YeongMi turned to him, smirking.

"Have you ever been skinny dipping?"

"What? As in, like, you get naked, and, swim with other people?"

He was still embarrassed from earlier, and he wasn't in the mind to be sexual. Right now he was fluffy and shy, and YeongMi couldn't decide which side of him she found more attractive.

"Yep, that's it."

"I mean..... there's sharks in the ocean."

YeongMi stopped laughing, turning to her phone, still safely held in her lap.

"My brother is scared of sharks."

"It's a common fear."

YeongMi nodded mindlessly, staring blankly at the water.

"Hey, will we ever get to meet your brother?"

YeongMi shrugged, her heart feeling constrained.

She wanted to share that part of her life with him, with all of the boys.

But....

She just couldn't.

"Maybe someday."
