9mice//Sergey Dmitriev

Read the description and protocol, this is the pre-history of the chat.

• in the evening, returning home -

The first thing Mays did was go to Instagram to find your account. He found it 10 minutes later and spent another hour scrolling through your photos. You were very beautiful: photo shoots, vacations in other countries, restaurants with friends. In person, you seemed much more modest than online, and that piqued his interest. He was even afraid to message you, but he followed you and opened the chat.

Direct message:
— Hi, it's me, Seryoga. We saw each other recently. Would you like to star in my music video?

• you at this time -

You were spending the night at a friend's place and scrolling through TT when notifications came in:
9mice has subscribed to your updates.
9mice sent you a message

You quickly brushed them away, but Alina snatched the phone.

Alina: - Are you stupid!? Do you even see who signed up?
You: - No, I don't care. Who?
Alina: "It's 9mice! The same rapper we all listen to!"
You: - Ah, is this the one you're all listening to?
Alina: - YES! Answer him quickly!

You sighed, opened the chat and wrote:

• Hello, where could we have met?

Alina: — What do you mean, "where"? How could you not notice him?
You: "Oh my God, Anya, I only know him from your stories and I've never been interested in him. He definitely saw me somewhere on set."
Alina: - You're such a fool. Now tell me you're not going to be in the video.
You: - I think I'll go. Extra money is never a bad thing.

The conversation was interrupted by a new notification.

9mice: - At your place:) You were wearing my sweater.
You: - Yes? I didn't think you knew my brother, I didn't recognize you.
9mice: - He's my producer, by the way, hahaha. So what about the video?
You: - I think I'll participate.
9mice: Are you home tomorrow? We can meet. After I discuss everything with Vanya, we can also discuss the video.
You: - Okay, see you tomorrow.

Alina: - AAAAAAH GOD, WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT HE WAS AT YOUR HOUSE????
You: - I didn't even know it was him.
Alina: - LPPP, can I go with you tomorrow??? Pleeeease, you know he's literally my dream.
You: - Okay, fine.
Alina: - You're the best!!

You chatted for another hour and then fell asleep.

One day at the studio, Mays gave the producer an ERD sweatshirt because he was poorly dressed and cold. At home, Mays took off his clothes and threw them in the closet, forgetting about them. That night, you were getting ready to go out, but couldn't decide on an outfit, so you went to his place. You often borrowed your brother's clothes: they were loose, comfortable, and almost all branded. When you saw the ERD sweatshirt, you took it without thinking. A few days later, your brother got sick and didn't come to the studio, and the album needed to be written, so Seryoga came to visit. You were sitting in your room in that same sweatshirt, taking photos for Instagram. Overhearing your brother talking to someone in the living room, you peeked out. A tall, dark-haired guy stood there: a piercing in his nose, tattoos all over his body, and the word "angel" on his neck. He looked away, his gaze lingered on you, and smirked.

9mice: - You're wearing my sweater.

You looked questioningly at your brother, he nodded.

Vanya: - I told you, don't take my clothes without asking.
You: - Sorry, I'll take it off now.
9mice: - Come on, leave it, I don’t wear it anyway.
You: - Really?? Thank you. You see, Vanya, some people don't mind giving away their things, but you always grumble.
Vanya: - You know, I don't feel sorry. I just need to know about it.
You: - Bebebe.

You happily went into the room, the guys were left alone.

Vanya: "You don't wear it? It's one of your favorite sweaters. Why are you so generous?"
Mays: - Vanya, I already forgot about her. I'm still decluttering my closet.
Vanya: - Well, well.

Vanya looked at Seryoga with a smile for another 10 minutes, after which they returned to the track.

— evening —

Mays returned late at night. You were on his mind all evening, and he didn't even ask your brother your name.

In my thoughts:

• Okay, I'll see you tomorrow anyway, I'll think of something.

— the next day —

When Mays came to Vanya, you weren’t home.

Seryoga: - Listen, where is your sister?
Vanya: - Probably hanging out with her friends after work. Why?
Seryoga: - It's simple.
Vanya: - Yeah, but honestly?
Seryoga: I'm thinking of inviting her to be in the video. I think she'll fit in perfectly.
Vanya: "Then write to her and ask. I think she'll agree; she's often involved in this field."

Dima nodded, and they started working on the album again.
