One In A Million | TWICE x Original Male Character

[30] Last Piece of the Puzzle

Author's Note: Although the story so far has maintained pretty accurate chronological continuance, this chapter is kind of all over the place. Also, there is a bit of timeline manipulation compared to real life events, so there may be a bit more divergence from what happened in real life moving forward.

==========

*Your POV*

With your injury and the New Years fast approaching, JYP thankfully allowed for a break between the busy awards show schedules for everyone. And with many of the members going off to their families or friends, you yourself got a weekend home with your parents.

'Man, I wish I could've driven here...' You thought as you hobbled along on your crutches to the front door of the apartment building. Between the little steps that led up to the intercom, and the icy concrete path you had to walk along, you were quickly getting sick and tired of the crutches.

After a couple of scary moments up the ramp, you finally reached the panel of buttons. Spotting the button for your unit, you quickly pressed the button and waited for someone to pick up. Once it rang a few tones, you heard the click of the line connecting.

"Yeoboseyo?"

"Eomma, it's Y/N. Can you open the door?"

"Eomma?! It's Eunbi you pabo!" She shouted through the intercom before the doors opened with a buzz.

'Huh, she must be home for the holidays as well.' You thought as you clambered into the elevator. After a short trip up to the 4th floor, you stepped out to see that the front door was already propped open for you. However, you soon realised that you couldn't open the door and walk in with your crutches.

"Erm, could I get a little help, please?" You shouted into the apartment, hoping someone could hold the door for you.

"I got it!" You heard the voice of not someone from your family, but Chaewon, who appeared in the doorway. "Oh, hello Y/N. What happened?" She asked you, pointing at your crutches.

"Long story, I'll explain over snacks or dinner, whichever comes first." You suggested as you entered the apartment. Once inside, you realised that there were more guests over.

"How dare you call me eomma!" Eunbi made her way over, playfully slapping your shoulder before gently hugging you.

"Oh, what a nice surprise!" Your mother said, walking over from the kitchen. "Oh my, what happened?"

"Torn ankle. Long story, and I think you and Dad might enjoy it the most." You said, giving your mother a hug.

"Well I'm looking forward to it. Your father is on his way home so he shouldn't be long." She said before going back to the kitchen to attend to the cooking.

"It's a proper party here this year, huh? You said out loud, sitting down on the couch. "Nice that you two got a break as well, and that you could spend it together."

"There's actually 3 of us." Chaewon said, pointing at someone behind you.

"What about me?" You turned to see Hyewon ask.

"Wow, this is a rich group of IZ*ONE members here." You chuckled, referencing the fandom pairing 'Crazy Rich Koreans' of Hyewon and Chaewon.

"As expected of our leader's brother." Chaewon praised your knowledge.

As the 4 of you talked over some TV show that provided background noise in the apartment, the front door opened to your father walking in with snow still on his scarf and hat. "Wohow, it's a party tonight!"

"Pardon the intrusion." Hyewon and Chaewon greeted him formally.

"Ah, long time no see Chaewon. And welcome Hyewon." He greeted them back before seeing you on the couch. "And you too Y/N?"
