I stepped into the JYP building, ready for another hard day's work training to become an idol.
It was pretty early in the morning and I had dance lessons first followed by vocal lessons.
At lunch, which was practically cucumber and carrots, I spoke with a few of my fellow trainees, who were hardly my friends.
In my vocal lessons, after having one on one time with the teacher, I then just had solo practice.
As I walked to the practice rooms, I heard a guy vocalizing in one of the small rooms.
I looked in through the window, seeing a cute tall boy sitting at the piano practicing his breathing.
"Hey, try doing Do-Re-Mi, to practice your octaves and everything." I said to him, in one of his short breaks between exercises.
"Thanks... um?" He asked, expecting my name.
"(Y/n)." I said, he seemed new, I had been a trainee for a year now, starting at the same time as my brother Hyunjin, and I'd never seen this guy before.
"Umm, I'm Seungmin. Thanks (y/n)." He said, I smiled, walking in.
"I'll practice with you if you want?" I asked, he nodded nervously.
"So, you're the new trainee?" I asked, he nodded.
"Are you staying at the dorm?" I asked, he nodded.
"That means you'll know my brother." I said, he nodded awkwardly.
"Who?" He asked.
"He's Hyunjin." I said, he gasped.
"No wonder you're so pretty, it must be the genes." He said, still pretty nervous but he had slightly loosened up.
"Well thanks, you're handsome too Seungminnie." I said.
"How old are you?" He asked.
"I'm 17, February 2001." I said, he laughed.
"You're younger than me." He said, I laughed, "17, September 2000."
"No!" I said, annoyed he wasn't my dongsaeng, but didn't mind him being my oppa.
We sing together for a while, his voice was soothing and really really smooth.
Seungmin and I practiced together for weeks and months, until he finally got the news he would be debuting, in a group with Hyunjin.
Over the months, I grew to like Seungmin, more than a friend. He was so kind and cute, very charming and intelligent. He was funny, by bullying his hyungs, including Hyunjin, when necessary, and being passive aggressive.
He spoke so well, even his English was amazing after only learning for 2 months.
He was everything I wanted.
"Now, I'm gonna have to leave you." He said, and I felt a pang in my heart.
"You won't." I said, "You're best friends with my big brother, I'll see you all the time."
I had to hold back my tears on the last day we would be practicing together, because he had to concentrate on the group and himself.
He hugged me tight, whispering in my ear.
"I like you (y/n)." He said, blushing a lot and smiling sadly, "Thank you for helping me over the months. You're amazing."
I felt really warm, seeing him so happy, even though we were parting.
"I like you too Seungmin-ah." I said, smiling through the tears.
He kissed me lightly, smiling into my lips and apologizing.
"Don't apologize." I said, "Follow your dreams, I'm supporting you completely."
"Bye (y/n)-ah." He said, kissing my forehead and leaving with a few bags.

Seungmin, omg, What a cutie!
What's your favourite SK song?
Mine's either Rock (돌), which makes me so crazy whenever I hear it ㅋㅋ, or Young Wings (어린 날개) because Jisung's '이젠 안해' gets me every time.
I do love Mixtape #1 though, and he original Placebo too. ㅠㅠ
Requests are open!
