Iris Scenario: Jiae’s Fall
Anon asked: Max, if you need ideas on what to write for Iris, write about one of the members being involved in an accident, or collapsing on stage due to fatigue (Their main-dancer, maybe?) It's what I do in my with my own group. Not going to lie, it's fun to give them like, good lives, but really shitty moments, too. Maybe, write about one of them, if they're Lesbian or Gay or Bisexual, being outed or something. And, also, can we read about your fake group?
Genre: fluff/angst

Warnings: n/a
a/n: First of all, thank you for all these ideas, I needed them. Second, you can read about Iris if you search the tag Iris on this blog but here’s the masterlist too! I’m going to keep this ask in the inbox so I can keep looking at this for reference because there are some other ideas in here that I wanna do ;)
“You don’t have to go out there if you really don’t feel well,” Suyoung worried.
“No, no. I need to go. I have a dance break in this song,” Jiae assured her.
Jiae stood up and walked to the other side of the green room where the bathroom was. She walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind her. It was quiet until the door closed.
“She really doesn’t look good,” you piped up, “She looks so pale.”
“And she’s really warm. I could feel the heat radiating off of her just by standing next to her,” Suyoung responded.
Suyoung let out a concerned sigh. One of the PD’s came in and gave you guys a 5-minute warning. Jiae walked out of the bathroom, not looking any better. She gave a small reassuring smile and a thumbs up before leaving the room. You all followed after her.

The performance was going well and you were just about done with your set. You were on the final song, a song with a big dance break where Jiae had a solo. You could tell everyone was a bit on edge since Jiae wasn’t feeling well. You started the final song and everything went fine for the most part. Jiae was a little sloppy in her footwork, which was weird for her. She was always clean and precise in her movement but you just assumed she was a bit sloppy since she was feeling ill.
You moved into your positions for the dance break but out of the corner of your eye, you noticed Jiae wobbling. Just as you looked over, she collapsed. You rushed over to her, the others following after seeing her unconscious body on the floor. You lightly shook her, trying to wake her up. Her eyes slowly opened. Medics that were on standby rushed over and began checking her over. They quickly rushed her off stage and back into your group’s greenroom. You all followed them.

Jiae was brought back to the green room but later brought to the nearby hospital for a full examination. You all waited at the hospital to hear how she was doing. Your manager informed you that she was doing fine, she just had a minor head injury besides the fact that she had a fever. They let you all go back and see her finally.
“Ya, Jiae!” Suyoung said as she entered the room Jiae was in, “I told you to sit out of the performance!”
“Aww don’t be too mean to her eonni,” Mijin pouted
“She is still trying to get better. Don’t beat her up too much,” Ru piped in
Suyoung sighed and sat down at the end of Jiae’s bed, resting her hand on Jiae’s leg.
“I knew I should have kept you from performing. You’re too sick and shouldn’t be on stage yet I let you go out there. You could have really hurt yourself.”
“No, don’t blame yourself,” Jiae spoke, “I was the one that went on stage even though I knew I shouldn’t have.”
Everyone was silent a moment, relishing in Suyoung and Jiae’s words.
“Ahh, I don’t like this silence~” Mijin overdramatically sighed while laying over Jiae’s lap
Jiae laughed and gently flicked Mijin’s forehead, making everyone laugh.
“Yeah, you can’t keep the silence either.”
“Alright, why don’t we let Jiae rest for a bit and regain her strength?” Ru proposed
“Yeah, let's do that. We’ll head back to the dorms and let you rest for a while until they let you come home,” Suyoung said
You all said your goodbyes to Jiae and watched as she settled down to rest as you closed the door to her hospital room.
