November 2023

The last two months have been relatively quiet. They rehearsed a lot for the new album. Wooyoung and San kept their distance, as agreed. They also rarely had time for themselves, as things often got hectic. San had also decided to release a dance performance video. Wooyoung was one hundred percent behind him and supported San as much as he could. He was often present at rehearsals. Danced a bit with him. Only the days when the dance crew wasn't there.

Today was the day when they finally went through everything again and San told Wooyoung that he could sit in the corner and watch. He wanted to know what Wooyoung had to say about the performance. When Wooyoung sat down, San took off his top and Wooyoung couldn't take his eyes off him. He had seen him without a top so many times, why did he react like this? One of the dancers went up to San and admired him, causing Wooyoung to tense up. San also responded and laughed along with the dancer. Wooyoung bit his lip and stared annoyed at the two of them. A short time later, the song started and Wooyoung watched everything carefully. Sans movements were so sharp, clear. Full of vigor and power.

He seemed aloof and hot.... Atiny will love it! And me. I love it!

The song was over. Wooyoung jumped up and leapt into San's arms. He returned the hug in surprise.

"And how was it Young-ah?"

"You were so cool! It looked amazing, I can't wait to see the video!" Wooyoung chattered on excitedly. San thought back to Wooyoung's Artist of the Month, where he was also at the shoot. Back then, he was totally fascinated by Wooyoung's smooth and swinging movements, his charisma. He was so handsome back then. He stared at Wooyoung, who was also looking at him intensely. "Guys, what's going on? Are you coming or are you going to stare at each other for decades?" grumbled a dancer, annoyed. Both blinked quickly and looked away, embarrassed. So much for staying inconspicuous.

The video shoot was a day later. San was sitting in the dressing room getting ready with his stylist. Then Wooyoung's stylist suddenly came in. "Hey, I was told to do some fake tattoos?"

"There you are Haerin! That's right San, needs some tattoos. He'll show you where he wants them."

They exchanged glances and San scrutinized Wooyoung's stylist. "You know about fake tattoos?" San asked curiously. She nodded silently and got everything ready. "Where do you want them? Then undress in those places."

She looked cold... Annoyed. No pleading or friendly demeanor. How does Wooyoung get along with her? Or maybe she's just like that with me... Did I do something wrong?

San showed her the places on his upper body and she started with the first tattoos. There was complete silence, which actually made San a little uncomfortable. But he didn't want to disturb her either. The simpler tattoos were finished after a while, all that was missing was the wolf. She placed a stencil on San's chest and her hand lingered there a little too long. She stared at it for what felt like an eternity. San cleared his throat and smiled awkwardly, not wanting to seem gemin, but it was getting a little uncomfortable. She removed her hand and stared at San. He blinked a little. Something about her eyes told San that he should understand why she was doing it.

When the tattoo was finished and San didn't take his eyes off her once, he thanked her and felt her fingers on him one last time for a little too long. He looked at her uneasily. She wasn't Wooyoung....

"You look good," finally came from her as she conceded.

"Thanks..." San said confusedly and looked at Haerin, who wiped her lip and her eyes. Was she crying?

"Is everything all right?" Carefully, he placed a hand on her shoulder, which she swatted away in panic. "Yes, everything's fine. Good luck, Sannie."

Confused, San looked after her. "Sannie? Does she have a crush on me?" San mumbled in confusion and walked to the location. He looked at Haerin, who was still there in case something needed to be redone. Her eyes were on him the whole time. San would definitely have to ask Wooyoung about it later.

When the shoot was over late at night, he drove to Wooyoung's dorm and knocked quietly on his room. He sleepily opened the door.

"What are you doing here at this time of night?"

"I wanted to see you, the shoot is finished."

"That was quick, come in." Wooyoung let San enter. He scrutinized San's appearance and felt somehow inappropriately dressed in his plush pyjamas. "When can I watch the video?"

"Like everyone else," San grinned. "All right, I can take it. But tell me, did everything go well? Are you knocked out? Why did you want to see me?"

"Everything went great, Young-ah," San giggled and sat down next to Wooyoung, grabbing his hand. "I'm here because I wanted to see you. We haven't done anything together for a long time."

Wooyoung's cheeks turned red at these thoughts and he smiled sheepishly. "Not like that, Jagiya," San laughed and tossed his hair. "I thought.... We could just talk and cuddle?" San smiled sweetly, which didn't match all the tattoos that still adorned his body. He took off his top, which meant that everything was now visible. Wooyoung swallowed a little.

"Sure, come here," Wooyoung widened his arms and San snuggled into them. Smiling at how sweet Wooyoung could be with San, he snuggled up to him. He often felt as if his Wooyoung and the Wooyoung of the others were completely different people. They both lay cuddling on the bed and fell asleep after a while.
