When the president returns to the studio in the evening, the atmosphere between Young Jin and Jay is totally different when they first met. Right now they look like friends who have known each other for a long time.
"I think it would sound amazing if we use harmonica during this part." < Jay
"Hmm, you may be right, it would add a nice little touch to it, let's try it now." < Young Jin
*music
"This is great! I think it would be better if we add a short solo harmonica part into it, something like this." < Young Jin
*music
"Wow, as expected from someone professional, it really sounded different and better!" < Jay
"Seems like you two are getting along very well." < President
"Soo Man hyungim! Congratulations, you might have found yourself a hidden gem. This kid is something special." < Young Jin
"Oh? It's rare for you to have such high opinion on someone, especially a trainee." < President
"Well, he really impresses me, and exceeded my expectation, I thought he is just another one of your talented boy, but this... this is what you would call a prodigy." < Young Jin
"That's why I brought him to you, to bring out his full potential." < President
"Honestly, he himself is very creative, the whole time we were discussing about the songs was him giving out the ideas, I was only polishing the ideas. And as a songwriter and composer myself, we shouldn't try to force our own ideas on the others, it would impact his growth negatively, you know this too Soo Man hyungnim." < Young Jin
"Of course I know that." < President
"The only thing I could do for him is to make sure he doesn't mess up during the process and give him some guidance and advice. I'll also teach him those more advanced editing stuff using computer." < Young Jin
"Really?! Thank you seonsaengnim!" < Jay
"Okay, let's call it a day, I have some other stuff to work on, come see me here after your practices tomorrow, we will finish the song together." < Young Jin
"Nae!" < Jay
...
Both Jay and the president came out from the studio.
"Anyway sir, have you seen where the other four went?" < Jay
"Last time I checked, Yunho and Hyuk Jae went working out at the gym, seems like their prides were really hurt." < President
"Let's hope they don't overdo it. What about the other two?" < Jay
"They were just walking around the company, I saw them watching how the other trainees practice. Ah! There they are! Hmm? Why is Jessica walking with them?" < President
"Jessica? Why does it feel like I forgot something important...?" < Jay
"You know her?" < President
"Yeah well, we met during the contest in became really good friends." Jay
"Just 'friends'?" < President
"Of course!" What were you thinking sir?" < Jay
"Nothing, just reminding you the rules and regulations here." < President
"Don't worry sir, nothing's gonna happen. I'll see you tomorrow! Bye!" < Jay
"...that's what they always say." < The president whispers softly and shakes his head, then turns around and walks away.
...
"Hi guys! Hi Jess! Why are you two acting so weirdly?" < Jay
Dong Hae and Changmin are signalling him with their expression like crazy, as if tellibg him to run.
"JAY KIM!" < Jess
"W-what?!" < Jay
"Did you forget about something?!" < Jess ^^
Jay stares at her for five seconds before remembering the text he received from her last night.
[Remember to prepare my lunch for me tomorrow, do that and I might just call you 'oppa' ;D]
"...oh shi-!" He turns and runs before finishing his words.
"YOU STAND RIGHT THERE JAY KIM! YOU KNOW HOW HUNGRY I AM RIGHT NOW?! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOUR LUNCH THE WHOLE DAY! YAH!" Jess chases after him
"...this noona is scary." < Changmin
"Remember to remind me not to piss her off." < Dong Hae
...
"Here's your lunch. See? I told you I made it for you, I only forgot to bring it to you because we were summoned by the president as soon as we arrived at the company." < Jay
He brings Jess to the practice room where he left his belongings. She snatches away the lunchbox as soon as he brings it out from his bag, stuffing everything into her mouth like someone that hasn't eat in days... until she chokes on the food.
*cough cough
"Drink some water, quick!" < Jay
He passes her his water bottle while patting her back.
"Take your time, nobody's gonna rush you or steal the food away from you!" < Jay
"I've been practicing the whole day with an empty stomach, do not tell me to take my time." < Jess
"I'm sorry, no next time I promise!" < Jay
"...by the way, is this your bottle?" < Jess
"Of course it is." < Jay
"H-have you drank from it before me?" < Jess
"Yeah, I drank it just awhile ago, I got thirsty because you me chased all over the place." < Jay
"...?!" < Jess @*o*@
She throws the bottle at him and runs away without saying anything.
"...is she crazy or something? Why is she acting like that? Whatever, guess I'll head home." < Jay
...
Jess's POV
She returns to her practice room quickly, and silently sits in the corner of the room. She covers her blushed face with her hands.
*thump thump thump thump
Even without feeling it, she knows her heart is beating like crazy right now.
'Did we just kiss indirectly? Does this count as my first kiss? Was it his first kiss? Argh... why did I just run away without saying anything, he must've thought I'm weird or something now. How am I supposed to see him in the future with a straight face? Kyaaaa~' @*o*@
She then slowly traces her lips with her finger.
'I don't hate the feeling though...'
...
Back to Jay's POV
*ding
[Update successful]
'Hello oppa~ I'm back!' ^o^/
'Oh Random! So glad you are finally back, it just felt different when you are not around.'
'Ehehe~'
'Anyway, what's this update about?'
'Oh you are gonna love it, lock yourself in your room, and come into my dimension, I will show you there.'
'Okay!'
Jay locks his room, then proceeds to meditate on his bed.
...
"Feels like it's been quite awhile since I've been in here." < Jay
"Oppa~!" < Random
Random with Jisoo's appearance jumps on Jay's back and hugs him tightly.
"Er... it still feels strange everytime I see you in this appearance." < Jay
"Hmm, should I change into someone else then?" < Random
"Maybe someone that doesn't exist in this world?" < Jay
"You mean aliens?" < Random
"No! I meant-" < Jay
"Hahaha, I know what you meant oppa, I'm just teasing you. Let's see... how about I merge the appearances of all the women you like, it would be your ultimate ideal type!" < Random
"Try it then, I'm also curious of the outcome." < Jay
"A moment please!" < Random
She disappears into the thin air, and reappears five minutes later, with a totally mew look.
"How do I look?" < Random
"...amazing." < Jay
"Judging by your reaction, this is a huge success! Ehehe~ I should also use this appearance when I am able to go to the outside world." < Random
"Please do!!!" < Jay
