The fluorescent lights of the practice room buzz a weary tune, painting the scuffed floorboards in sterile white. The air hangs heavy, saturated with the salt-tang of spent effort and ambition. You stand before the wall of mirrors, every muscle singing a dull ache from the final repetition. Jaehyun slumps against you, his arm a damp, familiar weight across your shoulders. "you~ I'm completely shattered," he murmurs into your shirt. A few feet away, Minseok groans, palms pressed to his stomach. Taeyang shuffles close, his pout visible in the glass before he melts into the group hug. The echo of the last beat fades, leaving only the sound of ragged breathing and three pairs of eyes fixed on you, waiting.
