"No drinks for you, Aisha," Chan seized the drink from her hand and kept it aside, replacing it with a glass of apple juice. Aisha whined, and he sternly looked at her and warned, "No, sweetie; it's not good for the baby."

She sighed, and Sihyeon rubbed her back.

"So, how did you guys meet?" Aisha asked Minho and Yiren, taking a sip of her juice, albeit reluctantly. Yiren looked at Minho, who, in return, looked back at her. 

"Ooooh, what's with all the shyness?~" Jiwon teased, and the boys hooted. It seemed like a scene from a typical high school football locker room (oddly specific, I know). 

"I'm not shy," Minho spoke, and Yiren started singing Not Shy by Itzy. Hearing her sing, Jisung joined in, and so did Felix and Changbin. 

"I don't get you guys," Hyunjin spoke, and three seconds later, he was doing the hook step. 

Seungmin started beatboxing, and Jeongin turned up the music, "LET'S PARTAYYYY!" 

Sihyeon squealed and grabbed Jiwon's hand to stand up and dance in the middle of the living room, where the group of Midzys was previously singing the song, and Chan giggled and helped up Aisha to the apparent dance floor, with her complaining, "Channie, I'm just a few weeks in! You don't need to be so careful!" 

"It doesn't matter, babygirl; I'm always gonna be careful with you anyway." 

"Not in bed-" Jisung sneaked in, and then started coughing vehemently to cover up his remark. 

Minho hadn't gotten up to dance; instead, he was watching Yiren dance her heart out and laugh with the rest of the guys and the girls. He admired her as she whipped her hair to the sides, a huge smile present everlastingly on her lips. Her eyes were turned up in small crescents, and her pearly whites were visible, too.

Yiren is ethereal -- Minho concluded, unconsciously smiling at her enjoying herself, and that he might like her a little more than like

He got up and joined her in the space where everyone was dancing, and as soon as she saw him, she placed her arms around his neck and swayed, her hair flipping past his face. He laughed, feeling utmost delight upon living in this moment. 

The song changed, hyping up the party even more, and Chan announced, "Other than Aisha, who wants some more drinks?" 

Aisha groaned, and the rest cheered on for the drinks. 

The leader brought bottles into the living room, pecked a pouting Aisha on the lips, and poured the mild alcohol into the glasses. 

"TO CHAISHA!" Felix raised his glass up, making the couple laugh over the silly ship name. 

"AND TO JIYEON!" Jeongin joined in. 

"AND TO MIREN!" Hyunjin laughed, raising his glass up as well. 

"GUYS, YOU HAVE THE WEIRDEST SHIP NAMES, BUT I SHIP ANYWAY!" Jiwon chuckled, half drunk already. 

"Oh, my god!" Jisung gasped, pausing on his spot, "Felix, do you remember the time when Sihyeon and Jiwon got drunk?" 

"Yeah- OH, SHIT!" Felix cursed. 

"What...?" Yiren asked. 

"THEY GET DRUNK EASILY, AND THEY'RE REALLY HARD TO HANDLE," Jisung pulled at his own hair, remembering how needy Siheyon had gotten that time when the two friends were drunk and had called him up. Felix, on the other hand, was dreading making Jiwon sit still again -- much like back then. 

And looking at the two, they were pretty tipsy already. 

"CHAN, I THOUGHT YOU WERE THE SMART ONE!" Felix complained, and Seungmin looked absolutely offended, muttering, "So I don't even count?" 

Aisha laughed, watching Chan make that 'I screwed up' face, and Yiren hyped up, "Say AYYYY!" 

"AYYY!" the two drunk girls -- and Jeongin -- cheered. 

Yiren giggled, the drinks getting to her slowly, "The party is just getting started!"
