'workaholic' - with woozi

Seoyoon was in her studio working on a new song at her desk. Her laptop was in front of her as she was immersed in her work. She heard a knock on the door which caused her to crane her neck towards the sound.

"Seoyoon..." It was Ruby.

"Huh?"

"We're gonna go to the restaurant down the street for dinner. Do you wanna come?" Ruby asked with her hands in her baggy jeans pockets. She was sporting a black crop top today, letting her muscular abs play peek-a-boo.

"Nah, that's okay. You guys go ahead," Seoyoon replies while grabbing her black headphones from the desk and plugging the aux cord into the side of her laptop.

"You sure?"

"Yeah. I'm busy... I'm gonna stay here and finish this."

"Okay," Ruby replied with no further questions. As a co-producer of Z10N's music, she also understood when deadlines needed to be met. Her leader was in the zone and she didn't want to slow down her progress. After all, she was working hard for the group.

Ruby throws up a piece sign before leaving how she entered. Seoyoon places the headphones over her head, resting them on her ears, and begins diligently working on this music track. She closes her eyes and takes a deep breath in... then a deep breath out... when she opens them, she sees the colorful chunks of audio on her laptop screen... but she also can physically see each and every musical note floating in the air in front of her. The notes are purple, and blue, and orange, and red, swirling just above her auburn-colored hair. Her fingers begin tapping the keyboard as the melodies fill her head then release out of her ears and into the air. She starts a rhythmic head nod to the beat she's been working on for the past hour and a half, letting the sound roll down her shoulders and fill her entire soul. She was in her element.

"Seoyoon..." She felt a gentle tap on her right shoulder which caused her to jump in her chair.

"Ah!" Her shoulders tense up as she grabs hold of her headphones and makes eye contact with the short male member. "Oh... you scared me." She covers her face in embarrassment then lets her headphones slide around her neck.

He laughs. "Sorry. You were really in the zone. Are you still working on the track for the winter album?" Woozi asks with his hands in his jacket pockets.

"Yeah... one of them. BUMZU wants it done by tomorrow," she reveals, mentioning their label's main producer who's helped write tons of hits for Pledis artists.

"Ah... how many are you working on in total?"

"Six. Three just for Z10N members, and the others are special units..."

"Ah, okay. Can I hear what you have so far?" Woozi asks as he shifts his eyes to her laptop screen.

"Sure... but it's not finished."

Seoyoon unplugs her headphones from her laptop and turns up the volume before pressing play. For the next 15 minutes, she shares her progress with Woozi and accepts his feedback about how to make the song even better. Once the older finishes all he has to say, he stands up from the chair he placed beside her workstation and prepares to leave the studio when he receives a text.

"Oh..."

"Hm?" Seoyoon asks while typing some notes on her screen.

"Hoshi just texted me about ordering takeout..."

Seoyoon nods her head, still focused on her laptop.

"Hey, have you eaten yet?" He asks, already guessing the answer. She's been the same since they were trainees: always one of the last ones to eat since she was stuck in the studio most of the day. She was purely a workaholic, similar to Woozi. He could understand and relate to her work ethic because he's been there himself. But being a workaholic doesn't give you an excuse to neglect your mental, emotional, or physical health.

Seoyoon lets out a sigh while scratching her head. She looks over at her producer friend and grins. "No... but I will once I finish this track."

Woozi grins. "Why don't you come to our dorm and eat something? Just a little bit. You don't have to stay - you can bring a plate back to the studio."

She thinks over his offer and lets out another sigh. Her stomach was grumbling and she could use a nice cold drink. "But..."

"Agh, no buts! Take a break and you can finish in half an hour. Come on!" Woozi demands, not letting her make any excuses. He walks towards the studio door without looking back. Seoyoon grabs her cell phone and closes her laptop before silently following him out of the studio, wearing a small grin on her face. Only 'cause it's Woozi.
