"They've fell asleep there? I'll come and get them, sorry for bothering you." Ji-ah said
"It's fine don't worry about it, I have a lot of spare rooms, they're no problem at all."
"Really? I would hate to wake them up, they're so cranky if I wake them up early."
"You can come and stay with them here if it's too much stress to take them back to the dorm." I offered
"Are you sure it's not a problem?"
"Not even close, I don't mind looking out for you and them."
"Thank you so much, you're always so helpful."
"Don't mention it."

While Yeji, Yuna, Lia and Chaeryoung already took all of the spare beds with one more left for Ji-ah. Ryujin was sleeping on the sofa so I decided to move her to my bed. I could sleep on the sofa since I didn't mind.
I picked Ryujin up and carried her in my arms to my room, I carefully put her down on to a chair next to my bed so I could sort out the blanket.
I then hear the doorbell ring, I go to the door and open it to see Ji-ah with a couple of to-go cups.
"Hi, come in." I said
"This is a nice place." Ji-ah complimented
"Thanks."
"So what happened?"
"So we started celebrating with food and drinks, non alcoholic obviously, and we were playing games and listening to music."
"Then?"

Flashback
I went to play some Pac-Man on an arcade machine I had in the apartment, but when I got there I saw my high score had been beaten by somebody.
"Who beat my high score?!" I said
"Mina was playing all your games." Chaeyoung said
"Oh no, she better not have touched guitar hero." I said
I checked my guitar hero scores and they were all beaten, with the name Mina being next to all the high scores.
"Noooo!"
"You should look at the positives." Chaeyoung said
"Like what?"
"What's a game no one could've accessed, that way you'd still have a high score."
"Oh right."

I go on my phone which I left on the sofa, I then click on a certain game
"At least I still have you, Superstar JYP." I said
I then saw all of the song scores had been beaten on hard mode, my scores were at least doubled
"Who touched superstar?" I said sadly
"That weren't Mina, that was actually me." Jeongyeon said, laughing

Later on, Twice and Joseph had to go home. Yeji and Lia then came up to me.
Yeji had her eyes barely open and was leaning to one side. She then tugged my shirt to get my attention
"(Y/n)." She said
"Yeah, What is it?"
"Do you have a spare room, I'm tired."
"Oh yeah sure, it's just down the hall over there. Just go down the end and there should be two different rooms, you can pick either one."
"Thank you."
Yeji then stumbled to the spare room aided by Lia. They were both clearly tired but Lia could walk in a straight line unlike Yeji.
Yuna and Chaeryoung lasted until 9:30, they too then got tired and decided to go to sleep.

Present
"So where's Ryujin then?"
"I was about to put her in my bed, I can just sleep on the sofa. I was just sorting out the blanket for her before you got here."
"Ok, I'll clean up the rest of the rubbish while you put Ryujin in bed, it's the least I could do to repay you."
"Thanks."

I go back to the room and take Ryujin's shoes off her before putting her into the bed and covering her with the blanket. I was then about the left until I felt something pull me back towards the bed, it was Ryujin
"Ji-ah!" I called
"Yeah?" She came in the room
"A little help please?" I said
"Sorry, once she grabs something she won't let go, you're best off sleeping there tonight, see you in the morning!" She said before closing the door
"You really are troublesome aren't you." I said to Ryujin and laughed

"Yep."

"Wait.....you were awake this whole time!?"
"Maybe." Ryujin giggled
"You are sneaky."
"Hurry up and get under the blanket, it's cold!" She said
"Alright, fine."
And just like that Ryujin and I ended up falling asleep with each other.

In the morning I woke up with Ryujin wrapping her arms and legs around me like a koala. I just laughed
"Ryujinnie, come on, let go, I need to get dressed."
"Mm, noo, stay a bit longer." Ryujin said cutely
"Or I could tickle you to get you to let go."
And just like that Ryujin got off of me
"You're so mean." She said
"Don't worry, I'll make it up to you."

I then get dressed and go into the living room to find it absolutely spotless, all of the rubbish had been thrown away and all of the dishes had been washed
"Wow, Ji-ah's good." I said
I then got started on making breakfast for everyone, I didn't know what everyone liked so I just cooked a lot of different things.
I made myself some tea and decided to read the letter Joseph gave me yesterday.
I ran my finger across the top of the envelope to rip it open and I then took the letter out.

(Y/n) (L/n),
Normally I wouldn't send these messages myself but you're different. I've been watching you play recently and there's also been some good words put in by some of the other England internationals. You'd be surprised if I said the biggest praise didn't come from one of your Tottenham teammates, it actually came from Jordan Henderson.

Flashback to Liverpool Match
"You know, you'd be a good addition to the England team."

Present
"Wow, he actually put in a good word." I said to myself

Jordan also told me about your situation with Joshua, that is why I didn't call him up to England this time. I wanted to give you a chance to shine for England. This will be against Italy and Denmark on the 27th and 31st of March. If something is wrong please email me and then I'll sort it out for you, for any general information you can ask your Tottenham teammates that play for England, for example Kane and Alli.
England manager,
Gareth Southgate

I then finished cooking breakfast and put everything on the table. I went to the spare rooms and knocked on the doors. I heard groaning and moving meaning they were all getting up.
I then went to my room and sat on my bed next to Ryujin
"Ryujin, Ryujin, it's time to get up." I said softly
"Mmm." Ryujin remained asleep
"What would it take for you to wake up?" I asked
I then got an idea and kissed Ryujin on the forehead, she then opened her eyes and sat up before yawning.
"Ha, my plan worked." She said
"Next time I'll just let you sleep, I won't make it that easy for you to get a kiss from me." I said
"It worked now though."
"Not next time. Anyway come on there's breakfast waiting."
"Breakfast?" Ryujin rushed out of bed and out of the room, I followed.

Ryujin ran and sat at the table whilst grabbing a pancake and putting it on her plate
"Ryujin, at least wait for everyone else to get up." I said
"Hmmm, nah." She giggled
"Morning (Y/n)." Ji-ah said, entering the room
It looked like she had been up for hours, she was probably a morning person, the same couldn't be said for the rest of Itzy though, who came in looking like they were in the Like Ooh Ahh music video (Zombies).

I then put my coat on and put my training bag over my shoulder before taking a slice of toast
"Where are you going?" Ryujin asked
"I need to go to training, Ji-ah can I trust you to lock up when you guys leave? Don't worry about the dishes, I can do them when I get home."
"Oh yeah sure don't worry about it, have fun at training." She said
"Bye (Y/n) thanks for the food!" Itzy said

A/n: So I'm uploading this straight after the Norwich match and Jeez, Hugo Lloris is back baby! Sonny and Dele banging in goals and Lo Celso is an absolute beast. But still not as good as when they have (Y/n) and Joseph.
