“ugh..” you groan, staring at all the clothes on the floor. “why is it THAT hard to pick an outfit for a stupid dance challenge”
you’re scheduled to film a tiktok challenge with a new boy band debuting under another sublabel, bighit. it’s not that serious. you’ve done this a million times before.
okay, maybe you did spend about 40 minutes picking an outfit for filming with jimin. but look, that's jimin. he's from bts.
this time it was different because of one particular member.
actually, you don’t even know if he’s in the group, but there's a chance and that's driving you insane.
well, let’s say he is in the group.
you had a crush on him when you were both trainees. TRAINEES.
that was years ago, a lot must've changed, he probably looks very different. you might not even recognize him.
“beep..” you get a message. it's from your manager.
right, the outfit. focus y/n, FOCUS.
while you're still on your phone, you open a poll on instagram asking what to wear; jeans or sweatpants. one of your best friends from another group immediately replies.
“Y/N STOP POSTING ON YOUR STORY AND GET READY” you hear minji suddenly scream from across the apartment
🐨 “OH MY GOSH IM LITERALLY GONNA REMOVE U FROM MY CLOSE FRIENDS” you
🦦 “PLS STOP YELLING I WANT TO SLEEP” hanni
🐹 “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” hyein
you step outside your room to get ready just to find hanni and danielle laying on the floor.
as you approach the third floor you quickly check the elevator's mirror to fix your hair. "do i look okay?" you turn to hanni
"you look SO pretty" hanni replies, triggering hyein and danielle to break into singing "noonan neomu yeppeo"
you've got too much going on in your head to join them.
you enter the practice room and see 5 very tall boys, including the “3m tall ghost” wonhee told you about.
you also recognise james, he's the one that had a dance battle with hyein.
you analyse each member's features, trying to figure out which one is the guy you're looking for, but there's two guys that kinda resemble him, which confuses the hell out of you.
you introduce yourselves, though the boys already knew all of your names anyway.
🦮 "hi im martin and im the leader!"
a 3m tall ghost called martin, okay.
🦅 "hello im james, im the eldest"
the guy next to him giggles
you and hyein's heads immediately snap to look at each other at the exact same time.
good job y/n. good job hyein. VERY subtle.
what makes this even better is that cortis' team is documenting all of this, so you most definitely just got clipped.
hyein, james, hanni and seonghyeon go on to film the "what you want" dance challenge, while you, keonho, and haerin do the dance for your upcoming album's pre-release track.
just as you're about to leave, hyein nudges you and whispers to you to take the chance and do something.
you suggest that you exchange each other's kakaotalks so you can "be there for them when they need help since they're rookies", something that you totally just pulled straight out of your ass just to get seonghyeon’s number, since you never did this with other new groups.
your other members are confused but don't mind.
it's august 10th, just moments before cortis make their pre-debut with their song GO!, and you're currently live on phoning singing your heart out to dominic fike's songs.
earlier that day you texted each cortis member wishing them good luck, just so it doesn't seem like you got their kkts for no reason.
"OKAY GUYS, how about we watch cortis' music video?? the premiere is about to start"
this short listening party immediately blows up on social media.
for the most part you receive a lot of positive reactions for being a "supportive sunbaenim", others claim hybe is paying you to promote their “new nugu group”.
oh, and there's also some other comments.
author’s note; not sure how i feel about this but let me know if anyone wants to be tagged in the next parts!! 😓 im also not sure how to continue so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.. maybe an ISAC part but yo idk
