Hoseok grins widely when he sees me and we high five, before he pulls me into a short hug.

When he lets go, he asks "So, you're the new member?"

"I thought this was supposed to be a boy group," a voice tunes up behind Hoseok, who moves aside a little so I can see a black haired boy, around our age I guess, looking mildly irritated.

"I thought so too, but PD-nim changed things up since they don't have expenses for two groups at the moment and it seemed like Hayoon had desperate need to get away from her former company and the right amount of talent Big Hit needs," Namjoon explains and the final stranger nods, before mumbling "Yoongi."

"Hayoon. Nice to meet you," I say, getting a nod in return. He's not that talkative as it seems.

"So we have a four piece rap-line now," Hoseok exclaims proudly, his hands on his hips and a big smile on his lips, so big it's almost blinding.

"Seems like it," I smile shyly in return. Somehow, the presence of Yoongi makes me slightly uncomfortable.

"I can't wait to find out who comes next!", Hoseok says and I reply "I have a hunch."

"Really?", Namjoon asks and I nod "Yeah, PD-nim was talking about someone who's good at both rapping and singing, but with four rappers now he will most likely end up a vocalist, maybe even backup rapper."

"Wow, sounds like the full package."

"Sounds like it," I smile, before Namjoon says "Oh, did you get the schedule yet?"

"No, I didn't," I reply when I realize I wasn't handed anything considering the schedule. Namjoon quickly starts digging around in his jeans pockets, fishing out his phone and unlocking it, before handing it to me and saying "Type in your number, I can text it to you."

I nod, following his instructions. I send myself a text to check if I didn't mess up the numbers and then hand him back his phone. Seconds later my notifications go off again and I pull it out to see that Namjoon sent me a picture of the current schedule they have.

"I don't know for sure if you're joining us today too or if you're starting tomorrow, since PD-nim said nothing specifically about this, but if you want you can come along with us today," Namjoon offers.

"I guess I will come along today, see if PD-nim still has things he needs to clarify. I leave tomorrow anyways for a couple of weeks, so I guess we have a lot to clarify for that time."

"You're leaving?", Hoseok asks and looks confused, as if he wants to say 'But you just arrived.'

I nod "I'm supposed to go on set for a tv series tomorrow. We film for about five to six weeks. We had our first script readings two weeks ago, so we had some time to memorize the gist of our scripts."

"Oh right, I forgot you were an actress!", Hoseok exclaims and almost facepalms himself.

I laugh slightly at his reaction and then say "Well then, I guess I'll take a look around my dorm and will come over when it's time to head out for practice."

Namjoon and Hoseok nod while Yoongi already turns away to leave, so I do the same and leave their dorm to cross the hall to mine.

As I venture through my empty dorm, my phone starts ringing a certain tone, telling me already who it is.

"Hey girl, how are you?", Chae-rin asks and I smile slightly "I'm doing good. I'm part of a new idol group set to debut in about a year if everything goes great."

"I'm so happy for you!", I can hear her smile from the other end of the line, brightening my own smile a little.

"Thanks, Chaechae. I'm the fourth to join the group, the others are great so far. One of them is actually the guy I told you of, the one who I met at the auditions."

"Ah, the dancer?"

"Yup, he's part of the group as a rapper and dancer," I plop down onto my little couch and lean my head back, holding my phone close. I already miss Chae-rin and the girls even though I didn't leave the company too long ago.

"So it's gonna be a mixed group?"

"They made an exception for me. It should have been a pure boy group but since they don't have enough funds for two separate bands at the moment they decided to switch things up and make me part of the group. So it'll be me against a bunch of boys."

"Please don't get pregnant before it's legal," Chae-rin says with a serious tone, making me laugh "Chae-rin! I wouldn't think of that! How could you?"

Chae-rin's laughter fills my ears and I close my eyes, imagining my best friend here with me.

"What's your schedule for today?", she asks after she calmed down and I reply "Dance practice. After that I guess I'll have to chat with my new manager on how we want to proceed, since I'll be away for a couple of weeks and how my schedule afterwards will look like."

"I can't wait to see your debut and hear your songs."

I huff a laugh "I don't think I'll be getting that many parts, maybe serve as a background vocalist or something."

"Excuse me? Hayoon, you went there to become a rapper. I know you have potential to be a vocalist but don't let them push you into a direction you don't want to go."

I grin at her comment "Thanks eomma, I'll keep that in mind."

"Do that my child. Speaking of which, have you figured out how old they are yet?"

I shake my head, even though she can't see "No, I haven't. I know Hoseok's a couple months older than me but I have no clue about Yoongi and Namjoon. And I haven't gotten to addressing them that way yet, so we'll just see what time gives."

"Who knows, maybe you'll be a maknae?", Chae-rin teases and I roll my eyes "You know I'm too old to be a maknae, unnie."

Chae-rin sounds like she's fainting "Oh god, I've been waiting for you to call me that! Seriously, learn your manners, Hayoon. I'm only letting this slide because I love you."

I grin at that "Ah, I love you too unnie."

tell me your thoughts in the comments I'd love to hear them
