>Chap:5

I parked my car at the airport. I unbuckled my seatbelt and get out of the car.

"Got all the bags?." Martin asked others as he fixed his hair.

Answering his question, others got their stuff from the car. We all huddled in, talking and joking. I looked at the time it was 9am in the morning. I looked around as they got in line to get their ticket. After getting their tickets, i waved them bye and hurried to my car as I was late to work. It was 10am when i reached there. I walked in and greeter everyone. I met Luca on the set of Sirius stars.

"Hey. Sorry i am late." I said as i stopped to stand beside him.

"No problem." He said as he continued his work.

Sighing out of relief. I relaxed and looked around and found Bong Cha doing makeup of Baek kyung.

So she was his makeup artist.

I saw Nicole doing make-up of Tae oppa. I looked around and i found him. Seo-joon's eyes were closed as he had his head rested against the seat. He looked so relaxed. I looked up at the make-up artist and she was the one who scowled at me that day when Bong Cha introduced me to other makeup artists. Upon feeling my eyes on her she looked up to meet my eyes. She scowled and rolled her eyes as she flipped her hair and dabbed the brush on the makeup palette. I raised my eyebrows at her.

What's her problem?.

I rolled my eyes, not minding her and walked towards Bongcha.

"Hello" i greeted them.

Baek kyung and Bongcha turned to look at me, gave me a smile and said hello in return.

"Did they leave?." She asked as she continued her work.

"Yeah. I dropped them off." I said moving behind as hair stylist moved forward.

I waved them bye as it was getting crowded and took a sit on the sofa in the room.

I picked the novel out of bag and making myself comfortable, i put one airpod into my ear and opened the novel, Me before you. It was gifted by my friends.

I started reading it, fully indulge into the story.

Hometown smile song was blasting through my air pod.

Cause all these empty faces they got nothin on yours

They can keep on talking baby your the beat to their noise

Your the beat to their noise

You are my beat to the noise

You got that hometown smile

I heard chuckling and clapping which startled me. I looking up with a frown on my face. I saw Bong Cha, Nicole holding their phones towards me.

"What are you doing?." I said as i put a hand in front of my face, subconsciously.

"We were recording you singing. You sing nice enough." Bongcha said as she pocketed her phone and took a seat beside me.

"I don't sing good. It's just okay." I said as i scratch my arm, feeling embarrassed.

"Who else listened to me?." I whispered. They chuckled and shoke their heads.

"Listened to what?." Baek Kyung said as he stopped in front of us.

I stood up and pursed my lips. I guess my whisper wasn't light enough. I can't whisper lightly. Some people whisper so lightly that the person sitting next to them even can't hear.

"Noth- "

"She sings!. So we recorded her." Bong Cha said as she told him excitedly with a mischievous smile on her face.

I shoke my head as other members also made their way towards us, where the sofa's were located in the room.

"Show me." Baek kyung said with a goofy smile

Why was he so interested in listening to my ugly voice?.

May be he wanted to make me feel like a loser?. No. He isn't like that.

Deep down i was nervous and anxious that what would he say. The rest members sat on the sofa while Baek kyung stayed standing with us. Nicole pulled out her phone and started recording us. I scowled at her that may be she will get my point that she shouldn't record his reaction.

He clicked the play button and my voice blasted through the speakers. Just to tease me, Bong Cha increased the volume to the full. I put my hands on my face and laughed.

I was one of those people who laugh while being nervous. I removed my hands from my face as the video ended. I looked at his expression.

His friendly smile appeared and he looked up to me. He nodded his head.

"Its nice." He said giving me a thumbs up.

Nice. In his language nice= ugly.

"Um. Thanks?." I said, I don't know how to react.

Should i be happy or embarrassed?.

"Who was that?. The song was really good. " Nam-joo asked.

I looked towards him and found Seo-joon beside him.

"It was our Doctor. She was singing." Baek kyung said with a wink as he passed the phone to Bong Cha.

"Oh. You sing?." He asked curious, eye's big in curiosity.

"She used to sing, she was a part of singing choir." Seo-joon spoke as a matter of fact, while looking down at his phone.

I looked up at him surprised and he also seemed to be shocked and surprised.

"Who told you that?." I asked him, slowly.

"Do-yun." He whispered and looked down.

Baek kyung was laughing at Seo-joon and Tae-ri gave his famous bunny smile. Joo-ho nodded his head while Ho-yong was doing- well his thing- -Eating.

"That's great. You sing good." Nam-joo said with his dimpled smile.

"Thank you." I said, biting my lip in embarrassment.

"What else did Do-yun told you guys about me?. I hope not bad things?." I asked.

"Many things. He used to talk about you alot. And no bad things." Tae-hoon said, giving a kind smile before he gulped his sandwich down.

Do-yun, you are going to die.

"Oh. You reading that book?." Nam-joo said as he pointed down to my hands.

I looked down at my hands and remembered i was holding the novel.

"Yeah. Have you read it?." I asked excitingly, eyebrows rising in anticipation

"Okay. I am out of here. Come on. Lets these nerds talk." Baek kyung said as he grabbed Seo-joon and Tae-ri's hand and dragged them off with him.

I rolled my eyes and so did Nam-joo. We both laughed at each other. Joo-ho and Ho-yomg left with Tae-hoon.

Bong Cha and Nicole left a long time ago to set the things.

I sat beside Nam-joo and pushed my hair back.

"You like reading?." He asked, curiously with a grin on his face.

"Yes. I love reading." I said with a smile.

"Me too. Have you read....... "

We talked for an hour, ate our food and got to know alot of things about each other.

"It's late. You didn't even get rest. I am sorry for holding you up." I said to him as i looked at the time

"No. No. I had fun and don't worry. This was relaxing to me." He said while smiling as to assure me.

I nodded my head and smiled.

"It was great talking to you. Nam-joo." I said to him. Standing up i fixed my shirt and picked up my book.

Following suit, he said, "Me too. Great to have someone here who likes reading too."

I chuckled and he followed suit.

"Come. Let me walk you to your car."He said, pointing to the door.

I shrugged and walked towards the door. Him walking behind me as i walked outside towards my car.

"Thank you." I said turning back to face him.

He stood with his hands in his pants pocket as he gave me a soft smile. His blonde hair moving slightly with breeze. He looked hot with glasses on.

"No problem. That's what friend's do." He said with a shy smile.

I couldn't help but chuckle at his shyness. I nodded and agreed and we exchanged phone numbers.

So we were friends now.

I like that.

He waved bye as i sat in my car. My car roared to life and i made my way back home.

Next day, i finally completed the novel and was waiting for Nam-joo to arrive. I can't wait to discuss it with him. After doing some work, i was bored so decided to go outside and see what was taking so long.

Today we all were going for a small picnic for relaxing. So members were getting ready and staff members setting all things up. I prepared a first aid box with me beforehand. I looked at myself in the mirror of the washroom and applied lip bam to my dry lips. Fixing my hair, i walked out of my room. I was humming to a song when i put a hand on the door handle, i was about to push it down and open the door when it suddenly swing open and hit my head.

"Ouch." I said grabbing my head as a chuckle left me. I don't know why but the situation was very funny to me as i have been hit by the door more than my mom's hand.

"Are you alright?. I am so sorry." Seo-joon's concerned reached my ears and felt his hand on my shoulder.

I stood straight smoothly and pushed my hair back.

"I am fine. It didn't hit hard." I said as i looked up at him. The spot where the door banged against my forehead was throbbing little.

His eyes held worry for me as his eyes inspected my forehead. His other hand came up and his warm finger touched my forehead. His worriness dulled the throbbing.

"A red patch has formed. You sure, you okay?. Let's go check it up in a hospital." He said as he grabbed my hand.

"Wait. Seo-joon!" I said stoping him before he could take a step forward.

I held his hand which was holding mine.

"I promise i am fine. I am a doctor. I know." I said softly with a smile and patted his hand.

He continued to look at me and then my forehead and then nodded his head and pulled his warm hands away.

Weird, but i wanted him to hold my hand.

"You came here for?." I asked as I shyly pushed back my hair and moved back in the room.

He seemed to realize it and nodded his head.

"I had a mild headache." He said as he frowned

"Please take a seat. " I said as i moved to sit on my chair.

After asking some questions, i pulled out the medicine from the drawer and gave it to him.

"Thank you." He said with a small smile.

"No problem." I said, tilting my head to right.

He nodded his head and left the room. I sunk back into my chair and released air from my mouth.

Damn you, Seo-joon!

His small smiles, shyness, chuckles all made my heart flutter. No man has ever had an affect like this before. And it scared me.

I shake the thoughts out of my mind and listened to some songs to release the stress.

I sat in my car and looked myself in the mirror. My shiny black hair pulled into a nice braid which was done by one of the hair stylist and little natural makeup done by Bong Cha. Nicole took the front seat while Bong Cha took the back seat. All the buses had left except for Bts members and a few staff.

I put in the key and started the car. Nicole put up the songs and i pushed the button to open all the windows. Natural air is much more refreshing and relaxing than artificial air. I glanced in the back mirror, saw Bong cha taking selfie as her hair were dancing along the wind.

I bobbed my head and drummed my fingers on the steering wheel. When suddenly the car started jerking and black smoke started to come out of the engine. The car skid to a stop, quickly moving out of car , i opened the bonnet and was blinded by black smoke.

"Oh man!." Bong Cha cried

"Oh god. What do we do now?." Nicole said as she grabbed my shirt from behind and pulled me back from the black smoke.

"Is my face alright?." I asked them once i got came to my senses.

"Yeah. Totally fine." Nicole said as she got hold of my chin and inspected my face.

I looked around and couldn't find what the problem was. Bong Cha was calling other staff and telling them our car broke town a few miles from studio.

My phone started ringing, i went in car to pick it up. It was Luca.

"Hello Eun Ae."

"Hello Luca."

"Listen. I got to know what happened, so dont worry we our on our way towards you. We will pick you guys up. Pick your things for the event and some mechanics will come and take the car and get it repaired." He told me as i nodded my head but then realized he couldn't see me so i responded.

"Okay. Thank you Luca." I said and release the breath that i was holding.

"No problem."

I put the phone in my pocket and turned towards my friends.

"Come on guys. They are coming to pick us up, pick up your bags." I told them and went to driver seat to pick my sunglasses.

We all pushed the car to the side of the road and stood under a large shady tree.

I heard a horn in a distance and stood up straight. A large white bus with tinted windows stopped in front of us.

Luca came around the car and waved at us. We all huddled towards the car. Nicole and Bong Cha went in while i discussed things with Luca.

"Thank you so much, Luca." I said and passed a smile at him.

I walked in and saw Sirius members looking at us. I stopped abruptly and caused Luca to bump into me. I stumbled but was prevented from falling flat on my face by Luca as he grasped my arm.

"Careful!." He said

"I am fine. You didn't tell we would be going with them." I whispered as i turned to face him.

"Sorry but i didn't know its a big deal. What is it, is there any problem?." He asked looking concern.

"No no. There is no problem at all. I just thought you would be picking us with staff. I am totally fine." I assured him.

Idiot. Do you really had to ask that?.

I cursed myself internally. And he looked relieved and smiled at me. He took my bags and put where all bags were. I looked around to find any empty to sit on. There was only one empty seat beside Seo-joon. I looked back nervously trying to find any other empty seat but found none.

"You can sit here." His deep voice entered my ears. Turning towards him, he had picked up his bag making space for me to sit.

Thanking him, i took a seat beside him. My poor heart was beating hard against my rib cage.

Okay then...
