Another round of questions ayee<3

If you could have a superpower, what would it be?

And

Where do you want to travel to?

"Is it possible that you like Jeno?"

"Is it possible that you like Jeno?"

As if I had just caught her in the act, her eyes widened in shock as she stared at me speechlessly.
I watched as her cheeks and ears slowly but surely turned a faint pink while she hectically searched for any words.

"What, of course not!" she tried to convince me, the lie clearly written on her forehead.

"Are you sure about thas? Your blushing cheeks are telling me something else. You like him, don't you?"

Soyeon inhaled sharply, unsure what to say next.
It wasn't usual for the pretty girl to have a boy catch her eye and it was definitely much more unusual for her to talk to me about it now.
Never would I have imagined that she liked someone from NCT as well, but despite my argument with the other members, I wasn't mad at her in the slightest.

"Definitely not..." she shook her head unconvinced while I just grinned at her in disbelief.
She probably noticed that there was no point in continuing to lie, since I had clearly won with my assumption.

"But... I wouldn't say I'm not interested either..."

"I knew it!" I laughed somehow energized and almost jumped up if the sudden stabbing pain in my hip hadn't reminded me that I was actually hurt.
I quickly tried to calm myself down again, but I couldn't prevent myself from clapping my hands like a little child.

"That the day would come you actually have a crush on a gu-"

Before I could finish my sentence, a soft pillow landed in my face, causing me to chuckle in amusement. "

Shut up, someone might hear you and skin me alive."

"Like they skinned me alive?"

She looked at me apologetically, but nodded after a short while.
At the moment, none of DRGNS had any idea that both of us liked a member of the rival gang and for now, we should probably keep it to ourselves.
Taeyong's deal itself had shocked them as if I had killed a baby panda and I was sure that this secret would get worse reactions.

"I think you need to give the others time to think about it.
The longer SVT is out there causing trouble, the more temptation there is to work with NCT. Even if they don't want to, I have the feeling that in the end we won't have another chance."

Sighing, I agreed with my best friend. The two of us alone couldn't change the situation...
No matter what we would try or say, at the moment, the others would either twist our words around or yell at us even more. Waiting was the only option in this case.
