Rhys' POV:

I trembled walking to the dance studio.
Will they like me?
What will fans think?
What if they ask if I'm a girl?
I looked up and realized I reached my destination.
Shakily I lifted my hand to the door knob and turned it with a creak.
I cringed at the noise.
So much for being quiet....
"You must be the new member." I heard a voice say with recognition.
I didn't know how to react, so I just quickly nodded.
Apparently my nervousness was evident, and the man placed his hand on my shoulder. "Don't worry, loosen up a bit. I'm Namjoon by the way."
I smiled at his concern. "I-I'm Rhys, I-it's a pleasure."
Namjoon nodded and led me to the other six men standing near the other side of the room.
"Are you a girl?" One asked.
I flinched at the word.
Girl....how I hate that so much....
"N-no." I stated.
"But you have feminine hips." Another commented.
My breathing became rough. This wasn't going to end well.
"Great....we have a fag." The first voice came again harshly.
I felt my mind spinning, the air not processing through my lungs.
"Are you okay?" I heard Namjoon ask with concern.
I placed a hand to my chest and gripped my shirt tightly, still breathing heavily.
I shook my head to him.
"Rhys!" Was that Tsu-Noona? "You weren't suppose to leave without me! What is-" Her gasp filled all ears.
The dropping of bags and the clacking of heels patterned across the floor, as they got closer to me.
I felt arms enveloped around me, pulling my face into their neck cradling my head ever so softly.
"Calm down." She spoke in a soft tone as she stroked my short hair.
My breathing evened and she let go.
All the members had worried gazes except for one, which I assumed triggered my episode.
Noona coughed and grabbed our attention. "Hoseok." She said in venom. "Rhys is a person. Not a 'fag.' Be careful with your words."
He gulped and nodded quickly afraid of my manager.
Tsu-Noona sighed and flashed a smile at me. "Will you be fine without me?" She asked.
I was hesitant, I felt tears form in my eyes.
This was the last time I was going to see her.
After I become a member....that's it.
I hugged her and let a few tears fall as I shook my head.
She's been with me through everything.
From my first boy haircut to my first binder I don't want her to go. She's helped me through so much.
Tsu chuckled, pulling my arms off and cupping my cheeks. "Hey, don't cry." Noona paused. "You're going to be a man! And I can't hold you back from that, okay?"
I nodded with a pout.
"That's my boy." She let go. "Remember that you're loved Rhys."
Tsu turned on her foot facing the exit. "Bye." She waved with a sad smile, and with that she was gone.
I sniffled and placed my hands over my face.
"Look...." I heard Hoseok'a voice behind me. "I'm sorry, about what I said."
I simply nodded and kept my puffy red eyes covered.
"What did she mean by become a man?" A small voice asked.
"I think it's best to leave it alone Jungkook. He's still crying about it..."
"Noona was with me from the start." My voice cut in.
The whole world paused as the seven listened in.
"She acted as a parent to me after my parents kicked me out for being trans....She helped me through everything."
"Everything?" A curious voice asked.
I nodded taking my face out of my hands. "She was there when I first left my house to my first binder and everything else in between."
My breath hitched. "I-I'm vulnerable without her...." a felt another tear cascade off my face.
Suddenly I was crushed into a tight embrace.
My eyes widened as I saw that all seven men pulled me into a hug.
"We'll protect you. Isn't that what hyungs are for?" Namjoon chided.
I flashed a small smile, which faded when I remembered something. "I still don't know all of your names......"
That ruined the moment.
We all broke apart and some of them laughed, while the others facepalmed.
"We'll Go from oldest to youngest!" Declared Namjoon.
And thus they started.
"I'm Jin, the Mr. World Handsome."
I giggled at the last part of his sentence. They're already growing on me.
"Min Yoongi or Suga. Swag."
I rolled my eyes at the "swag." These men....Jeez.
"I'm your hope, I'm your angel....J-Hope! Or Hoseok-hyung to you." This man was cheery.
Next.
"You already know me." Namjoon said and we went on.
"Park Jimin, it's a pleasure."
I smiled at his politeness.
The next one practically screamed my ear off.
"IM V BUT YOU CAN CALL ME TAEHYUNG!"
I clasped my ears in pain as I grimaced.
Taehyung paused with a guilty look. "Sorry."
I nodded. "It's ok."
And lastly....
"Hi, I'm Jungkook. Nice to meet you hyung."
I shook my head at him, he gave me a confused stare. "I was born in 2000...you're three years older than me, Jungkook-hyung."
The brunette gasped with glee. "IM NOT THE YOUNGEST ANYMORE!"
Though it was loud, I chuckled at this sight.
These men were nice....I think I'll be okay working with them.
"Oh! That reminds me...not all of you know my name." I felt bad for not introducing myself.
I bowed my head. "I'm Oeun Rhys, it's an honor to be working with you all."
"Eh? So polite..." Jin spoke.
I lifted my head. "Anything else you all would like to know?"
Some of which nodded.
"What role are you going to play in our group?" Yoongi-hyung asked.
"I was told I'm going to be a vocalist and a dancer...but someone mentioned something about flower boy...." I mumbled the last part.
He smirked. "We'll have to test you sometime."
I sighed, getting hit with the anxiety of failing. "Next."
"Why did you change yourself?" Taehyung asked rather rudely.
I cringed at the question.
"Taehyung you can't just ask something like that." Jin scolded.
I took a deep breath and eventually answered. "I-I felt wrong. I'd never taken a liking to female attributes, especially on me." I paused a second. "S-So I did research and....yeah." I spoke awkwardly.
Thankfully they all understood and we went on.
"When's your birthday?" Jimin-hyung.
"June 4th." It was a simple question with a simple answer, so it wasn't that bad.
"Ooooooooh! We finally have a Gemini!" Hoseok cheered.
I smiled, realizing that there were no more questions.
Letting out a held breath, I picked up my satchel that Tsu-Noona placed on the floor unnoticed, as well as a suitcase which most likely held my clothes and other devices.
"Now, then. Is it possible for me to get settled in the dorm?"
Namjoon gave a nod. "Yep. Let's go."
