Shine bright like a diamond

Summary:

Jihoon is part of a couple unit that no one is quite sure about. Meanwhile in another group chat, the ever-social Soonyoung is caught up always doing something. Seungkwan thinks Soonyoung is totally making up this date that he's seeing. When these two friend groups mesh because of the Mingyu&Wonwoo cluster, who knows?
