Chapter Text
Megan & Manon’s plan has been going fantastically.
They’ve been subtly pushing eachother to their own respective roommates, high-fiving and winking in celebration.
It makes them feel like special, top secret agents on an important mission- sneaking around in success.
A particular time Megan’s proud of is when she managed to hide Manon from Lara during one of their secret meetings.
Manon had planned a date (well, more like hangout- but let a girl dream) with Lara the night before- and that night, Megan was helping her choose an outfit.
Luckily, they knew that Lara was out due to going back to her family’s house for dinner- whilst Dani was out somewhere too. So, safe to say, they were in the clear.
They may have gotten slightly side tracked going live and talking about the fainting incident (at this point, if yearning doesn’t kill them- management most certainly will), but whatever.
However, due to their detour, there was a close call.
During her 4th outfit change, Manon had just put her top on when they heard their front door close- followed by footsteps approaching closer.
The hallway being exposed; directly in front of the door, Manon jumped under Megan’s covers in a panic just in the nick of time before Lara came in.
Calmly, Megan asked her to leave- and she did. Not even the slightest hint of suspicion.
Manon peeked out to check if the coast was clear, before high-fiving Megan, picking her clothes up and leaving.
For Manon herself, she took pride in the time she managed to successfully get into Lara’s car before Dani questioned it- squeezing into the seat next to Sophia; making the car full capacity, and ultimately forcing Dani to go to rehearsal in Megan’s car.
They did a low-five behind their backs behind their backs when they met again at rehearsal.
”Dude, are Manon and Megan acting weird to you?” Lara walked up to Dani during their water break.
”Yeah! They are, actually.” she exclaimed.
”This one time, Manon ran past me to sit in your car instead of with me like usual. I was left alone with Megan, which was fine of course ‘cause I love her- but it was so weird for Manon to do that.” Daniela explained.
”Megan as your driver? That’s rough.” Lara winced teasingly.
“She’s actually not even bad. I just tease her for the shits and giggles.” she shrugs.
Upon recounting the interaction from earlier in the week, she paused.
”Dude. Wait.”
”What?”
”Manon ran past me… to sit with Sophia.”
Their eyes widened at the same time.
”You don’t think…?” Lara trailed off, letting the silence continue for her.
”Manon likes Sophia? Oh most definitely.” Daniela grinned.
Lara, sharing the same excitement, opened her mouth to agree- but then her eyebrows furrowed in thought.
”Wait-“ she started, “that doesn’t…”
”What?” Daniela asked, puzzled at the sudden hesitation.
”That doesn’t make sense.”
“What? It makes total-!”
”’Cause I swear I saw them hooking up.”
”What?!” Daniela screeched, “Wait- who?” she lowered her voice to an- albeit, loud- whisper, realising that she made some heads turn.
“Manon… and Megan.”
”WHAT?!”
“That’s what I came here to tell you!” Lara gestured wildly with her hands, “But now Sophia’s in the mix, and I’m confused!”
”What do you mean hooking up?”
“As in sex, Dani. Have you never hooked up with someone before?” Lara rolled her eyes, lips twitching in a smirk as Daniela stuck her tongue out childishly.
”No, idiot! As in how do you know that they were- or are- fucking?” she hissed.
”Because-“
Lara had a nice- but tiring- fulling dinner with her family.
She loved visiting them- obviously. I mean, they’re her family after all.
But she was honestly ready to end the night, to crash in her bed and sleep, but then-
She opened the door to find Megan sitting stiffly upright in the bed with wide eyes.
”Get- get out! Please…!” Megan spluttered, gripping her blanket towards herself.
Lara surveyed the room. There was a human sized lump under her bedsheets, first of all- but just when she was about to tease her about it, her eyes snagged on something on the floor.
’Is that Manon’s shirt?’
She closed the door without a word, making a mental note to talk to someone about this later.
Her first choice for gossip was always- well, Megan- but Megan is the gossip. So, maybe not.
Manon’s out of the question too- you know, considering the fact that she was the other half of the gossip.
Sophia would absolutely freak about contracts or management or some shit- so not her.
Daniela was the only option.
(She didn’t want to tell Yoonchae- not because of the age gap, but because Yoonchae probably wouldn’t care. The most she’s getting is an ‘ew’ and a request for food.)
Lara finished retelling her story, Dani getting increasingly ecstatic.
“This is insane! This is insane! This is-“
”I know! I know! But what about Sophia?”
”We’ll see what the deal is, then I have a plan.”
Manon and Megan had confidently completed another quest towards the Megan and Daniela agenda (OPERATION MEIZINI as they liked to call it) during rehearsal, resulting in the two high-fiving and giggling to eachother towards the back on the practice room.
”They’re so weird…” Yoonchae muttered, rolling her eyes and taking a sip of water.
”What are they up to?” Sophia wondered aloud, narrowing her eyes at the duo in suspicion.
”Dude- look!” Daniela hissed, prodding Lara’s forearm excitedly and pointing at Sophia.
”Is she… jealous?” Lara asked incredulously.
”Sure looks like it!”
Megan and Manon’s plan has absolutely been going fantastically.
