"That was hot," Chenle commented once he regained his composure.

"What the fuck are you on to say that that was hot?" Jaemin asked, knowing fully well that he actually agreed with Chenle. Not that he'd ever say it though.

Meanwhile, Minjeong was already at the front door of AESPA's apartment, waiting for one of the girls to open the door.

"Hey, Minjeong. What are you doing here?" Yena asked as she let the younger girl in.

"What? I can't hang out with my gang mates?" Minjeong joked, not knowing that the girls didn't get the information that she was now officially a member of the Dragons.

"You're official!?" Aeri yelled from somewhere in the apartment, "I thought you guys received the news. I raced my eighth race on Monday, so I had to join even before then." Minjeong explained.

"Taeyong never told us about it," Chaewon stated as she entered the living area.

"Weird. I thought he'd say it immediately since he was rushing it so much." Minjeong shrugged from the couch, not having the energy to stand up after her little lash at Jaemin.

"Jeno did say something about having to train you a few days ago, but I never really connected it to you being in the gang," Aeri admitted, feeling a bit stupid as it was a pretty obvious fact.

"It's fine. At least now you know I work with you legally." Minjeong chuckled.

"Jeno's coming over a bit later, so you can probably start training today," Aeri informed making the youngest nod in understanding.

"It's not like she will need any training though," Chaewon stated knowing how skilled Minjeong was in every type of combat.

"Don't flatter her, you know it only feeds her ego," Yena warned in a playful manner earning a punch from Minjeong, "I've been working on it." She puffed her cheeks out making the rest chuckle at her adorable expression, which only made her blush.

They talked and laughed for quite a while until Jeno came.

Minjeong decided to ask him to train her right away, and he agreed, not wanting to waste any time since she was, as Taeyong told him, one of the best additions to the gang. Needless to say, the pair returned to AESPA's apartment, not even two hours after they left for the gym.

"You're early," Yena called out from the kitchen.

"I have nothing that could help her get better. She's already on my level." Jeno sighed as he took his shoes off and plopped down on the couch right next to his girlfriend who planted a soft kiss on his lips.

"You're all sweaty, go take a shower," Aeri instructed as she showed Jeno off herself.

The boy fell to the ground with a loud thud and just stayed there, not moving a muscle.

"Minjeong what did you do to him?" Aeri laughed at her boyfriend's state on the ground, lifting him up on the couch while he just wrapped his arm around her.

"Nothing. He asked me to fight him to see if I have any skill." Minjeong shrugged.

"I never wanna fight her again," Jeno whined.

"Since you aren't going to shower, I will. Do you girls have any spare clothes?" Minjeong asked.

"There should be some clothes in my wardrobe, but they might be a bit too big since they aren't mine," Yena said as she handed her a freshly made avocado toast.

"Can you leave it at the table, please?" the girl questioned, "Sure, take your time." Yena smiled at the younger, patting her hair.

Minjeong quickly found a pair of sweatpants and a hoodie that would definitely fit her and made her way to the bathroom. It didn't take her long to finish showering, considering she cut her hair a few weeks ago so it was a much speedier process than before. To say that the clothes she picked out were too big, was an understatement, but she didn't mind because she liked oversized clothes anyway.

"We were thinking," Chaewon started as Minjeong sat next to her, "Since you are officially a part of AESPA now, do you want to move here?" she stated.

"We are currently living in other apartments, but we can all move back in here if you'd like us to."

"We think it would be a good idea for you to at least live in the same building as the rest of us Dragons, because of safety reasons," Yena explained further, making Minjeong nod in understatement.

"I'd love to, but I love my apartment, and it's the only thing that makes me feel like I'm home, so I will have to pass up on the offer. But thank you." Minjeong smiled shyly at the girls, awaiting their reactions.

They supported her decision, saying that it was her choice and that she could change her mind anytime she wanted. She did, however, say that she'd swing by to hang out often, and the girls were very happy to hear that.

They ended up talking for a few more hours. Since some of them had college in the morning, they decided it would be best to call it a night and split ways.

Minjeong arrived home later than she was planning to, but she was happy that she had time to spend with her closest friends, and after that day, official gang mates.
