A/N: YALL THIS PICTURE IS MAKING ME QUESTION MY ACTUAL BIAS.... PLUS SHE IS SO SWEET AND CARING AND FUNNY

Hyein had recently been feeling left out recently as her members have been going out and hanging out while Hyein just stayed in the dorms or she is busy with school... on the weekends she was always left alone while Minji and Hanni go out and Danielle and Haerin go out. She knows she is being a bit dramatic but still it disappoints her to always be lonely she missed hugging and cuddling with her unnies but maybe they didn't like that... well Danielle loves hugs but she is usually hugging Haerin. Hyein sighs as she steps out of the school and walks to the car waiting for her and she opens the door and is disappointed that none of her unnies came to get her like they usually did but she guessed it makes sense since they have a photoshoot but it still hurts.

The car pulled into the studio for the photoshoot and Hyein sighed she was tired and still in her school uniform so she hoped one of her unnies remembered to bring her a change of clothes. She stepped out of the car and was quickly escorted in by the manager and she was lead to the dressing room where her other members were waiting and as soon as she entered she was overwhelmed by stylists around her handing her the outfit and trying to fix her hair and makeup which she had to bend a little for the stylists to reach before getting ushered into a changing room where she quickly changed and walked out and immediately she was rushed into a chair and makeup and hair stylists immediately set to work to finish her hair and makeup and when they finished she was ushered into the main studio where her other members were already there and ready

"Hyein finally now that everyone is here let's get this done and over with" Minji says as the others agree

"alright Hyein you are up first then we will do the group shoot and then Minji and Hanni you will have a duo shoot and Danielle and Haerin you guys will also have a duo shoot" the director says as crew members lead Hyein to the backdrop

'why do my members get to do them in pairs while i am solo...?' Hyein wonders as she gets ready to do the poses the director will give her. She couldn't help but look over to see if her unnies were watching but they were to busy with each other and Hyein just sighed before she got into focus and did the poses she was given which were just making her look cool with her black t shirt with army pants and black combat boots with her makeup done a certain way to where it looked like she had cuts and bruises on her face and arms. When she was finished she looked at her unnies then at the director

"hey director-nim...? why are the others dressed so differently compared to me?" Hyein asks the director while they were preparing for the group shoot

"we are going for a fantasy theme and you are basically their warrior and they are princesses who you protect" the director explained with a smile as Hyein nodded and walked over to her unnies

"hey looking good Hyein" Danielle says always the first to compliment her members

"thank you and you guys look pretty" Hyein says as they get in position for the group photo shoot 

"will you have a ride home? me and the others are going out" Minji asks looking at Hyein

"huh? oh yeah I will have a ride" Hyein says fighting to hide the disappointment in her voice

"ok good" Hanni says as they start posing with the poses they are instructed to do 

After the group photos were done Hyein was led back to the dressing room where she changed back into her school uniform since her unnies did not bring any spare clothes for her and sat in the chair where the stylists wiped off her makeup and as they were doing that Hyein realized she in fact did not have a ride since the manager was supposed to stay at the studios with the rest. After the stylists finished Hyein exited the building and stood outside and thought for a few minutes before calling her Rora from BABYMONSTER 

"hey Hyeinie, what's up?" Rora asks when she picks up

"hi Rora, i was wondering if Ruka unnie could perhaps come get me and take me back to my dorm?" Hyein asks a bit nervously 

"oh yeah of course where are you?" Rora asks and rustling can be heard over the phone and muffled voices

"thank you and I am at xxxxxxxxxx" Hyein answered before hanging up

After waiting waiting thirty minutes a black car pulls up and Ruka and Rora step out and Rora immediately greets her friend with a big hug which Hyein immediately returned

"hello Ruka unnie and Rora thank you for helping me" Hyein says with a grateful smile leaning into the headsets she was receiving from Ruka

"lets get you to your dorm I'm sure you are tired from school and the photoshoot" Ruka says as they get in the car with Rora getting in the back to sit with Hyein

"if you don't mind me asking why aren't your unnies taking you to the dorm?" Ruka asks gently as she starts driving

"oh um well they are going out" Hyein answered with a small yawn

"and they didn't invite you?" Rora asks shocked 

"well no and I really don't mind because I am usually really tired after school and schedule so normally I want to be at the dorm and relaxing" Hyein lies with a tired smile she pulls out

"oh... yeah that makes sense" Rora says believing the lie since technically Hyein didn't lie

"we are here" Ruka says as they pull up to the HYBE dorms 

"thank you so much unnie and Rora" Hyein says with a smile as she gets out of the car

"make sure to get some rest ok?" Ruka says as Rora says goodbye and they drive away

Hyein enters the building and heads for the elevator and she puts her mask on and stands in the corner as tears slowly fall from her eyes, she didn't understand why her members were acting like this or what changed for this to happen all she knew was that she felt hurt and didn't know how to tell her unnies. The elevator suddenly stops a few floors away from her floor and she quickly wipes her eyes and adjusts her mask and when the doors open it is Chaewon the leader of Le Sserafim entering the elevator.

"oh hello Hyein" Chaewon greets with a bow

"h-hello sunbaenim" Hyein says bowing back

"oh please call me unnie sunbaenim makes me feel so old" Chaewon says with a small laugh

"hello unnie" Hyein says with a smile 

"you heading back to your dorm?" Chaewon asks noticing the dry tear stains that Hyein tried to hide but not saying anything to spook the younger girl

"huh? oh yeah I am feeling tired from school and the photoshoot so I decided to come to the dorm" Hyein says a bit nervously looking at the ground

"hey Hyein-ah are you ok?" Chaewon asks her leader and unnie instincts taking over

"I- well- unnie..." Hyein says tearing up and hugging the leader of Le Sserafim tightly 

"hey hey your ok I got you" Chaewon says immediately hugging her back

"I feel lonely unnie it feels unnies don't like me anymore" Hyein admits burying her face in Chaewon's shoulder as more tears fall

"oh Hyein I am sorry to hear that is there anything I can do for you?" Chaewon asks softly and gently

"just.. please don't let go" Hyein says talking about the hug

"alright I got it I won't let you go, how long has this been going on?" Chaewon asks keeping her old on Hyein

" a few weeks ago they stopped picking me up from school and they are always going out and they never take me with them and they stopped hugging me" Hyein admits her voice shaky as she cries a bit more

"oh sweetie I am so sorry to hear that have you talked to them about this?" Chaewon asks rubbing her hand on Hyein's back comfortingly 

"n-no too scared" Hyein says looking at Chaewon

"hey your unnies will not be mad at you for opening up ok? opening up to them will be good to help things get solved" Chaewon says encouragingly

"your right unnie I will try to open up to them when they get back" Hyein says with a smile as she releases the hug

"and remember whenever you are feeling sad or down you can always come to my dorm" Chaewon says with a smile patting Hyein on the head 

"thanks unnie" Hyein says as they reach her floor and she gets off walking to her dorm and opening the door 

Hyein enters the kitchen and pulls out a ramen pack and started to make herself some ramen and while she was waiting for the water to boil she decided to open the fridge and take out some strawberries to eat, strawberries were her favorite thing in the world... after her unnies that is, anyways she sat at the breakfast bar eating her strawberries while waiting for the water to start boiling. When the water finally started to boil she had finished the pack of strawberries which she was a bit sad about but anyways she put the ramen and the seasoning in the boiling water and cooked it. After it was finished she poured it into a bowl and sat at the table eating it, though she couldn't help but feel loneliness once again at how empty and quiet the dorm felt and just like that her appetite was gone and she put her chopsticks down and walked to her room which she shared with Hanni and Danielle tand she laid down on her bed hugging the bunny her unnies gifted her and she cried herself to sleep.

It was around 7 at night when the others finally come back to the dorm and they new something was wrong with how dark it was in the dorm and when they turnt the light on they saw the bowl of the now cold ramen on the table looking like it was barely touched and the pot still on the stove from the ramen

"what is going on?" Minji asks as she approaches the ramen and tries it

"there is a empty pack of strawberries in the trash" Hanni points as she passes the trash can to look at the pot

"its cold seems like it has been sitting for a few hours" Haerin says as she also tries the ramen

"guys come here" Danielle says from her shared room 

the girls look at each other and walk to the shared room where Danielle has found herself trapped in a tight hug from the maknae who is still sound asleep and Danielle looks like she is mere seconds away from melting from cuteness overload. The girls coo and approach the bed where Minji notices the dry tear stains on Hyein's face

"hey guys I think she cried herself to sleep" Minji says sadly as she points at the dry tear stains 

"oh my god" Hanni says as she stops her movements as she was running her fingers through Hyein's hair 

"hey Hyein wake up" Danielle says gently shaking Hyein while keeping her cuddled against her side

 "I will go get some water and some headache medicine she might need it" Haerin says as she walks out of the room

"Hyeinie wake up sweetie" Hanni says gently shaking Hyein who just whines and cuddles closer to Danielle not wanting to get up

"aww you are so cute" Minji says pinching Hyein's cheek 

"unnie stop it" Hyein complains lifting her head up before wincing at the headache she got

"I got water and medicine" Haerin says softly handing the cold water bottle and medicine to Hanni

"thank you Haerin" Hanni says as she takes two pills out and hands it to Hyein who takes them then drinks the water

"hey Hyeinie are you ok?" Minji asks voice filled with concern 

"well..." Hyein starts hesitant but then she remembers what Chaewon said "no unnies I have been feeling lonely..." Hyein finally admits sitting up and avoiding eye contact with her members

"oh Hyein we are sorry for making you feel lonely" Danielle says bringing Hyein into a hug which Hyein melts into hugging back

"was there something we did to make you feel lonely?" Haerin asks curiously 

"you guys constantly go out together and you never pick me up from school anymore and you  guys stopped hugging me..." Hyein says repeating what she said to Chaewon 

"oh no Hyein we are so sorry" Hanni says tearing up as her and the other members hug Hyein as well 

"yeah Hyein I am so sorry I should have done better" Minji says tightening her hold on Hyein 

"its ok unnies I know you didn't mean for this to happen" Hyein says as her stomach growls quietly causing her to blush out of embarrassment and hide her face

"aw looks like our maknae is hungry shall we order some food?" Minji suggests and the members nod their heads 

"that's a good idea lets go Hyei-" Hanni starts but she doesn't finish as she is attacked in a hug from Hyein

The members smile and laugh at their maknae's adorableness before they eventually walk out to the living room where they start a movie as they wait for the food to arrive with Hyein in the middle cuddled up between Haerin and Minji with her hands being held by Hanni and Danielle and Hyein never felt lonely again.
