Haknyeon awoke to the smell of food wavering into his room. "Is that...seafood pancakes?" He got up from his bed then let out a yawn as he made his way to the kitchen. "Look who decided to wake up." Eric teased. "You're annoying." "I try." This made Haknyeon roll his eyes then walk into the kitchen to see what was cooking. "You always seem to know when food is around, Haknyeon. I'm not sure whether it's a good or a bad thing." Haknyeon picked up a pair of chopsticks from the drawer then went over to where Chanhee was making the seafood pancakes. "Don't you dare. I can and will cut your fingers off." Haknyeon shivered at the thought then quietly moved away. "You can be so scary when you want to be, Chanhee." "Tell me something I don't know. Anyway, go wait like everyone else." Haknyeon did as he was told, mostly to avoid Chanhee's wrath.

"Chanhee, are you sure your calling wasn't culinary?" Juyeon asked followed by nods from a few other members. "I'm sure. Both require time and dedication you know and I've always wanted to be an idol." "Anyway, we still have to come up with two other songs to finish up our new album." Everyone looked down at their food after Sangyeon had brought them back to reality. "How about bittersweet songs? This album is about heartbreak right?" "I don't know Jaehyun, I'm worried that we might not be able to pull off bittersweet." Haknyeon nodded in agreement with Jacob who is usually right when it comes to their music. "Then what do you suppose we do Mr. Music?" Everyone looked at Jacob expectantly.

"We could do a small truth song and then a song for The B." He felt everyone's eyes on him and he hoped that everyone would agree to his suggestion. "Haknyeon, that's brilliant." Changmin gave Haknyeon a reassuring smile while giving him a high five. "I agree." Haknyeon looked at Sunwoo then gave him a thankful smile. Everyone else continued to murmur until Sangyeon cleared his throat. "We'll go with Haknyeon's idea. We'll save Jaehyun's idea for our next album." Everyone nodded in agreement then went back to eating.

"Haknyeon, you're in charge of writing the lyrics for both songs." Haknyeon nearly choked on his drink when Sangyeon told him the news. "M-Me? Why me?" "You suggested it, so I assumed you had something in mind already. Am I wrong?" "Very wrong!" Sangyeon rubbed the back of his neck then let out a sigh. "You could always ask Jacob or Kevin for help. Don't sweat it too much." He started to protest once more but stopped as Sangyeon was already walking away. And just as luck would have it, Changmin walked in as soon as Sangyeon left. "Wouldn't surprise me if he was listening in..." "Yes, Changmin?" "I see I'm no longer a hyung to you." "Now you're being ridiculous. What do you need from me?" Changmin simply smirked then held his hand as he got down on one knee.

Juhaknyeon felt his face heat up as Changmin pressed a kiss onto his knuckles. "What do I need from you? Well, you, if I'm going to be honest." Haknyeon wasn't entirely sure how to respond to that and he hoped Changmin could see that he was uncomfortable with this situation. Unfortunately, Changmin didn't notice. "Listen, I need to get started on the two songs, so if you don't mind letting go of my hand..." Changmin did as he asked but once again made an uncomfortable situation by wrapping his arms around Haknyeon's waist. "Changmin , stop it. I'm getting a bit tired of how you've been towards me. I feel suffocated." He felt the older's arms move from around his waist. He took this chance to quickly make his way to Kevin's shared room then close the door behind him.

"So, what did you mean by a small truth song?" "Like, saying what's going on with us, but through something else. Like BTS." Kevin nodded then started writing things down. "Well, here are a few things we can try. Which one appeals to you more?" Haknyeon carefully looked at the options then decided on the third choice. "I think this one fits us better. Now for the lyrics, I want to make sure there's a portion for Sunwoo to rap as well as Hyunjoon." After discussing a bit, he and Kevin started writing lyrics for the new song.

"We can stop here for now. We'll probably have fresh and new ideas come tomorrow. Also, here." Haknyeon took the paper from Kevin then gave him a thankful bow. "It's looking pretty good already..." he gushed as he walked out of the room and right into someone. "I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention." He looked up then let out a small gasp. "It's fine. Are you okay?" He was surprised to hear Sunwoo ask about his well being, considering he still thought of Sunwoo as a bully. "Y-Yeah. Are you?" "Of course. I'm not a weakling like you." This made Haknyeon pout angrily then walk away in a huff. "Did I mess up again...?" Sunwoo thought.

"Hey everyone. I missed you all." Haknyeon waved as he watched viewers pour into his vlive. "Oh, that's a lot of hearts. We're already at 1k. Thank you so much." He looked at some of the comments and felt happy to be receiving so much encouragement. Some said that whatever he was doing was making him look healthier than before and to keep up with it while others said they were happy to see that he looked lively again. "Do you guys have any questions you want to ask?" He eyed the comments then saw one that caught his eye. "Are Younghoon and Changmin a thing? Sorry, but I can't say anything about that." He looked at a few more then saw they were mentioning Sunwoo.

He looked behind him then nearly freaked out when he saw him watching from the doorway. "Why are you just creepily standing there? Either come in or leave." He watched Sunwoo lie down next to him then greet the viewers. "I hope you all haven't been giving Haknyeon a hard time." "Sunwoo! Be nice." He and Sunwoo read a few comments then he noticed Sunwoo was staring at one in particular. "Sunwoo and Haknyeon look cute together. Well, I think so too. How about you?" Haknyeon could feel his face heating up, so he buried his face into a pillow. "Well, there's his answer. Any other questions?"

Haknyeon couldn't bring himself to look up in fear that a blush still colored his cheeks. "How could Sunwoo be so calm with such a statement?!" "We've been eating well and getting plenty of rest. Don't worry. Hey, they miss your face. Look up." He reluctantly raised his head then noticed they had so many hearts. "Sorry, I was just embarrassed by that statement. Don't say such frivolous things guys."

"Can you believe them?! Saying that we look good together?" He waited for Sunwoo to respond then felt anxious as he remained quiet. "Yeah, that was a bit much of them..." Haknyeon let out a sigh, completely ignoring the change in Sunwoo's tone. "How long were you standing in the doorway?" "Not long." "Why didn't you knock or come in?" "I was debating, but before I chose you had already turned around." Haknyeon nodded then stood up. "Well, thank you for the company. Now, you may exit." He noticed Sunwoo looked reluctant to go but did as he was told.

"Haknyeon." "Yes?" He watched Sunwoo take hold of his hands then close the gap between them. "You never answered me." Haknyeon found himself at a loss for words and unable to pull his hands away Sunwoo's. "His gaze is intense..." Haknyeon thought. "Well...not really...?" He felt his hands become cold as he realized Sunwoo had let go. Sunwoo turned and left as Haknyeon was processing the statement from the vlive and this moment with Sunwoo. "He looked disappointed with my answer..."
