Chapter 4 –Now

Okay, fine, maybe I WAS too tired after all that dancing. And maybe I shouldn’t have drunk so much. But, heck, it was Megan, and we were in a bar, so what else is there to drink in a bar, right? (fine, maybe I should’ve opted for gin instead)

So basically, I woke up (still dressed, thank god for that) in the middle of the dance studio, and guess who was right next to me? (or rather, right on top of me, well not particularly, but her head WAS on top of my stomach) and I have absolutely no idea how we ended up back in the studio, or even how we managed to walk all the way here from the bar, considering we were both pretty drunk as far as I remembered.

What’s weirder, I couldn’t bring myself to wake her. Well, she wouldn’t have woken up even if I tried, but….it just seemed…so right, having her here with me (corny, much?) so basically I just continued (pretending to sleep) That was, of course, until the other four amigos decided that we should start dance practice early and totally walked into the studio, only imagine their surprised faces when they caught us in that rather compromising situation, no?

Well, their snickers were enough to wake Megan up, and she punched me for not waking her up sooner (seeing as I was already awake by the time she was) So now, all these questions are running being tossed at me, and I have absolutely no reason to answer them.

Then again, their questioning is really starting to bug me, so I might as well comply.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Well, you mind telling us why we caught you sleeping in the middle of the dance studio,” asked our dutiful leader,”with a girl, mind you?” he said, pointing to Megan who, by now, was in the other room trying to fix her hair, although I’ve already told her a million times that it looks fine. It doesn’t really bother me much that he was being all ‘leadery’ and questioning about it, but it would really help if he dropped the joking-tone of his.

Well, then they all proceeded to laugh…again.

“Gosh, why do I even bother,” I said, trying to get them off my backs.

“Oh, come on,” said, once again, our dutiful leader ,”I’ve known you for half my life and this is the first time I’ve seen you with a girl….ever.”

And I knew that was true, because I’ve never really dated anyone before. Plus Jiyong wasn’t there when I was rehearsing with Megan.

“All I can say is,” started Seunghyun,”Way to go, man! She’s a hot catch.”

“Yeah, we should probably get on to the practicing, since YG will probably be here to check up on us any minute now,” came Megan, my life saver.

And so the rehearsing began.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

YG liked how the preparations were going. Heck, he even complimented Megan for getting the five of them to work together. But Megan remembered the one rule YG especially stressed on before she stepped onto that very studio.

“No fooling around with the guys,” his voice was clear in her head, “I mean it. I’ve seen what being with Yongbae had done to him, he practically couldn’t think straight for a week. So please, if you DO get involved with one of the guys, don’t break their hearts all of a sudden and run back to the States.”

Megan protested to this rule.

In the first place, she wasn’t particularly planning to hook up with any one of the guys anytime soon. And she wasn’t even ‘with’ Yongbae in the first place because technically it was just a one-night-stand….unless YG found out about that. And the only reason she went back to US was because she didn’t want Yongbae and her to get any further and thus ruin his career.

But she made the promise anyhow.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Megan proceeded rehearsing with the guys, she began noticing some of the other guys other than Yongbae. Turns out, some of them were pretty hot. In fact, ALL of them were pretty good-looking. Man, keeping this promise WOULD be hard.

At first, she noticed Seunghyun, mostly because of his stiffness. She practically had to move him like a puppet in order to get him to do the dance steps correctly.

And then there was Jiyong, the so-called ‘leader’. Not much of a talker though, since he rarely interacted with her.

And, of course, there was Seungri – the maknae, as everyone would call him. Megan thought he had a rather charming quality to him, being the youngest and all.

And for some reason, whenever Megan glanced at Daesung, he always seemed to be smiling. At first she thought this was rather creepy, but she got used to it….eventually.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Megan got along well with the other members, but maybe because the other members were actually trying to get along with her as well, seeing as Megan could quite possibly be Yongbae’s future (and first ever) girlfriend. She didn’t really mind it all, actually, because she had already gotten used to the idea that people thought that she and Yongbae were a couple, seeing as how close they were.
But don’t get any ideas, now, because Megan and Yongbae were strictly best friends, nothing more.

Or at least that’s what Megan thought.

“Hey….” Yongbae came up to her one day after practice was done and over with.

“Yeap?” she replied, as normally as ever.

“Do you wanna, maybe, go out for dinner tonight?” he asked casually.

And when has Megan ever said ‘no’ to Yongbae?
