It's been five minutes since Jisung and Subin have been stuck in the elevator. Jisung was still holding Subin's hand and slowly the girl realized how big Jisung's hand was. He cupped her hand as if he tried to trap an insect under it. "How can you be this chill?" She quietly asked. She had slowly calmed down thanks to Jisung subconsciously rubbing the back of her hand. 

"To be honest I have no idea. I would've freaked out already but for some reason I'm chill." He quietly chuckled. "What's so funny?" Subin asked and looked through the dark to try and read Jisung's face. "I'm pretty manly, right?" He asked and burst out in laughter. "You're weird!" Subin answered and tried to push him away. 

His hand let go of hers the second Jisung fell to the side and she felt nervous again. "Ya! Park Jisung!" She let out and Jisung chuckled and tried to sit back up. "Sorry, I always wanted to say something like this." He said calmly and cupped her hand again. "Sorry", he wiped some tears off his face and stretched out his long limbs. 

"Is this happening often?" Subin asked and Jisung hummed. "No, not really. It's the first time for this elevator to stop." Jisung bit his lip. "Do you have your phone?" He asked and she nodded. "I do, but it's battery is empty so it's not a big help. What about you?"

"I left mine in the break room." He answered. "So we don't have anything to light up this elevator." Subin sighed. "I hope the authorities find us soon. I want to go home." She sighed and Jisung looked at her. He could see her nose in the dark and wondered if the same-aged girl was crying.

"Are you crying?" Jisung asked carefully and heard Subin sigh. "I'm on the verge of crying. This day is just horrible. I want to go home and cuddle with my teddys!" Subin let out and scooted closer to Jisung.

Jisung felt his heart speed up when he felt the girl next to him. He has been a Trainee for most of his time so he never really had a chance to find out more about the other sex. He never learned what a crush was or how falling in love felt like because all he did was dancing. 

So when he realised that there was a real girl leaning on to him and wanting his support, something happened in his body. He felt and heard his heart and was afraid Subin was hearing it as well. But the girl was just quietly breathing, trying to calm down.

"Should we try and distract each other?" He asked, trying to ignore the pounding in his chest. "How should we distract each other?" Subin asked. "I heard you're actually a Trainee." - "I am." She simply answered. "What's your position?" Jisung asked and for a long time, Subin kept quiet.

She didn't know what her actual position was. Her dream position was Producer but Blue Soda Entertainment trained her to be a Rapper. "Well... In my heart, I want to produce music. But my company is training me to become a rapper so I think I'm a producing Rapper." A slight chuckle left her lips and Jisung smiled hearing it.

"I'm a dancing Rapper." He told her. "I know. I've seen some of your MVs. My best friend Yoobin sung one of your songs at her Monthly Evaluation. She's a talented Main Vocal!" - "What did she sing?" Jisung asked and patted his chest since his heart wouldn't stop jumping.

"I think it was called Without You?" Subin asked and Jisung made an acknowledging sound. "My Hyungs sang that song really well! Especially Jaehyun-hyung!" Subin felt the heat creep up in her cheeks when she heard Jaehyun's name. "Jaehyun-ssi seems very talented!" She let out and Jisung nodded — even though Subin couldn't even see. 

"All of the 127-hyungs are talented!" Jisung exclaimed. "Since when are you a Trainee in Blue Soda?" Jisung continued to ask. "I'm a very big fan of your Sunbae, Ahn Mari." - "I could see that earlier. Mari-unnie is a fantastic Sunbae! She treats Yoobin and me really good and always sneaks treats into our practice room, even when we're on diet!" Subin smiled at the thought of the older female taking care of her and her best friend.

"Wow, it must be nice having such a small company!" - "I wouldn't say so... because if our company was bigger, maybe no one would've noticed that Yoobin and I snuck out." She chuckled and Jisung laughed. "You snuck out?" - "Yep, that's why I'm here. Our Co-CEO Juyeon-ssi thought it was appropriate for me to be punished by working as an intern for SM. Juyeon didn't know I would learn properly producing from Mr Yoo so", Subin grinned and Jisung started laughing.

"You're really funny, Han Subin." - "And you're still weird, Park Jisung." Subin smiled and patted Jisung's hand. "But thank you for consulting me and calming me down. I feel less angsty now." She leaned into the taller boy's shoulder and closed her eyes for a second.

"It's the least I could do," Jisung said and listened to his heart, that pounded heavily in his chest. He would definitely ask his Hyungs about this weird feeling — it felt weird, warm and fuzzy, it was definitely confusing him.

The time was passing and Jisung was slowly falling asleep when they heard a screech. Subin, who had fallen asleep, flinched and almost jumped to her feet when the light started flickering again and the elevator started moving. "Oh my god!" She breathed out and stood up, giving Jisung a helping hand.

The two teenagers looked at each other and Subin quickly embraced Jisung in a tight hug. "We made it, Jisung!" She smiled with tears glittering in her eyes. Jisung wanted to say something, when the door opened in the elevator and Dahee stood in front of the door.

"Subin-ah!" The older woman screeched and hugged the girl, when she exited the elevator. "I'm so glad you're alright!" The receptionist said and patted the sixteen-year-olds head. Jisung watched her from afar and turned to the door — to finally go home.
