Chapter 1 (1/2)

"Wait, What? What do you mean, a '6th member'? Yah, Jin-hyung, are you serious?" Jonghyun said slamming his hands down on the table.The boys got called in for a meeting with their manager about something important. He wouldn't say what it was, just that they needed to arrive quickly. And now here they sit, in a conference room at the SM Building. "It's exactly as it sounds, Jonghyun. You're getting a 6th member. I know you guys released a full album and a mini album, but SM thinks this is a good idea. And hey, these things happen all the time." Manager Jin said, trying to calm Jonghyun down. "In this company, it's not really a big deal."

"But why would we need a 6th member? We have 3 vocals and 2 rappers already. Taemin-ah can dance and play piano, Onew-hyung has the klutz thing down, Kibum has the attitude, Minho the sports and me The Puppy Looks. What more do we need?"

"Yah. Jonghyun-hyung, let Jin-hyung explain. If you keep asking questions and interrupting we'll never get an explanation." Minho said.

"Aish. Explain then." Jonghyun said, sitting down.

"Okay, well then. Even though you three are the vocalists and you two are the rappers, SM thought you guys could use a little more...harmonizing in the group-"

"Harmonzing?! Are yo-"

"Yah! Kim Jonghyun! Enough. Sit back down, be quiet and listen. I don't want to hear anymore interruptions from you, arasso?" Onew, the gentle leader, spoke.

Jonghyun gave him a hurt look, but sat down without any argument. It was the first time Onew had been loud with him. He didn't like it one bit.

Onew nodded in Manager Jin's direction, urging him to go on.

"Anyways, SM has found you guys the perfect member. Someone with an...angelic kind of voice. They've trained here for almost 5 years. As a matter of fact, they're at the dorm right now I-"

Suddenly Key stood, a shocked look on his face. He looked over at Onew, who nodded, then back at Manager Jin.

"They're at the dorm? Right now?" He asked.

"Deh. Is that a problem? We thought you guys would be okay with this, even though SM had already agreed to it without consoling you guys first, which we're sorry about."

"A-Ani. I'm not sure about the others, but I don't have a problem with it. I was just expecting to meet them here is all. So who is it?"

"Yeah, what's their name?" Minho asked.

"How old are they?" Taemin, who was silent the whole time, jumped up and asked.

"What man would have an angelic voice...?" Onew wondered aloud.

Manager Jin slammed his hands in the table and stood so fast, he earned a flinch from Taemin and Onew.

"I was getting to that, so please, refrain yourselves from asking so many questions."

The boys cleared their throats and adjusted in their seats. With a sigh, Manager Jin finished-,

"It is not a man, but a woman." He looked at them and saw their mouths drop.

He continued- "She is 17 and her name is Lim Gaji. Normally we would have a cd with a song sung by her, but this is all sudden, so if you wish to hear her sing, then ask her at the dorm. But trust us when we say, You will like her. I wish I could stay and discuss more, but I have important plans for today. This meeting is over." Manager Jin started walking towards the doors when he turned around and said, "One more thing!"

The boys, their mouths nearly to the floor, looked over in his direction.

"Take these next 4 months to get to know her. You will be making an album with her." And with that last bit said, he walked out of the room.

They sat there, eyes wide, not saying anything, Until it finally hit them.

"WHAT?!" They all said.

"A girl?"

"At the dorm?"

"N-noona?"

They all looked at each other, their faces showing shock, confusion, and calmness?

"Yah. Minho-goon. How can you be so calm about this? And you too Onew-hyung!"

Minho and Onew gave each other a calm look and shrugged.

"Eo. It's not really a big deal, now that I think about it. I actually find it interesting." Onew said, scratching his head nervously.

Minho nodded in agreement.

"Not a big deal? Yah. Hyung. It'll be a girl. Living with us. In a dorm. With 5 guys." Jonghyun said.

"So? Damn. You would think the 'King of Skinship' would enjoy the idea of a female staying in our dorm. Stop overreacting, Jjongie." Key said, patting his best friends shoulder.

Minho stood up, a big grin on his face.

"I really want to meet this Gaji girl now, just to see if she can make Jonghyun-hyung tick." He said and laughed.

"That'll be something. Now I'm curious too." Taemin added.

"Wae? So this is the reality you want, huh." Jonghyun said standing up.

"Yah. Jjongie. What do you have against us getting a sixth member? I think it's a fine idea. It gives me someone to chat to on some things I can't talk to you about." Key said smirking.

"Yah! Kibum-ah! What's that suppose to mean?!"

"Ah-haha! Nothing, Jjong. I was just messing with you."

After everyone but Jonghyun laughed, the rest of them stood up and headed for the door. They were all anxious and excited to meet the new member.

Well, everyone but Minho, who was, as always, calm and collected.--------------------------------------------------The boys couldn't stop talking amongst themselves about the new member. Question after question kept filling their heads.

'Do you think she'll be pretty?'

'Who's going to ask her to sing?'

'You think maybe she'll make me food in the middle of the night?'

'Can she cook?'

'How tall do you think she is?'

When they got to the dorm, they slowly, one by one, exited the van and walked up the steps, anticipating the moment they meet their new member.

"Can't we just tell her it was a mistake and that we don't need, nor want, a sixth member?" Jonghyun said aloud.

No one answered; They were all too busy thinking.

When they got to the door of their dorm, they froze. Music was playing loudly. Their music to be exact.

Onew stepped forward and opened the door.

'Y Si Fuera Ella' greeted them, and pots and pans could be heard clinking together in the kitchen.

"Do you think that's her?" Minho asked.

"I don't know. It might be. I mean no one else really comes here but Manager Jin-hyung." Onew replied.

They all took off their shoes and started towards the kitchen, where a voice could be heard. With every step they took, it got louder and louder.

Just before they reached the kitchen door, the song was reaching its chorus. The voice sang along, without any hesitation or cracks.
