One Shots // Bae Rona x Joo Seokhoon ✨💫🌃

S3 A Good Friend (19.2)

Arriving at a fairly luxurious and high-end hotel. Minhyuk drove down the underground parking lot and effortlessly parked his red sports car.

Turning around to glance at the female. The corner of his lips unconsciously curves up into a bright grin.

Rona was sound asleep as she laid her head sideways. It was the first time he had seen her peaceful and sleeping face this close.

Unconsciously reaching out to tuck the stray fallen hair out of her eyes. Minhyuk had suddenly found himself in a trance.

It was as if he had fell into a spell, a spell made by the sleeping beauty beside him.

Gazing at her features, he could finally and easily understand why Joo Seokhoon used to act overprotective and crazy for the female.

The way her eyelashes curved up with volume even without mascara and the way she adorably pouts her plump and pink lips as she silently snoozed away.

Minhyuk wonders why he had never noticed these little details before but at that exact moment..... he sure was enraptured and bewitched by her innocence and beauty.

Trapped by his trance, Minhyuk finds his fingers reaching to touch the unconscious female's face. But as the pad of his fingers approached her soft and white skin.

Something inside him shifts and wakes some sense in him.

Scrunching his face, Minhyuk slaps his cheeks gently and internally scolds himself.

'No!!! Lee Minhyuk, get a grip.... She's not yours, she only sees you as a friend.

She's Joo Seokhoon' s......

Know your limits. '

'Are we here?'

Snapping out of his deep thoughts, Minhyuk turns his head and slightly jumps on the seat as he crosses eyes with the female.

As if on cue, Lee Minhyuk plasters on a teasing smile and replies with his low voice.

'Yeah, we're here..... Did you sleep well?

I didn't even dare to wake you up since you were snoring so loud.

You must be tired.'

Covering her mouth in shock and disbelief. Rona glares and gently reaches out to slap the male's shoulder.

'YAAA!!! You should've woke me up if I was snoring. That's so embarrassing.'

Laughing at her reaction, Minhyuk smiles and nods as he pulls his seatbelt off. Swiftly reaching forward to help Rona take off the strap. He accidentally looks up and hence they were left in a awkward position.

With their faces so close with each other, Rona could literally feel his hot breathe on her face.

'Shouldn't..... We go in now?'

Breaking the tensed and sudden awkward atmosphere. Rona speaks out as she smiles at the frozen male in front of her.

Quickly pulling back and coughing, Minhyuk brushes his unusual actions with a laugh and nod.

Eventually, Minhyuk was first to exit the car. Swiftly rushing over to Rona's side. And like the gentleman he is, opens the door for her and helps her down since technically she was still wearing high heels.

But considering she was just asleep a few seconds ago. Rona somewhat loses her balance and almost trips but with Minhyuk's quick reflexes. He grabs her waist and wraps her in a embrace.

Even Minhyuk himself was pretty startled as he looks down at the female's face.

Gently pushing Minhyuk away, Rona chuckles and balances herself.

'Silly me.... Thanks again Minhyuk ah.

That's funny, you keep saving and helping me today.

You should be my guardian angel.'

And although she said it as a joke. Minhyuk's eyes widen but after seeing her laughing face. He goes with the flow and also laughs along.

' Yeah, maybe I should.... Don't wear high heels next time.

Aigoo.... Your always the type that needs a lot of care are you!?

Anyway, aren't you starving? I reserved the best place for our own celebration so let's go and munch up some premium steak.'

The duo soon fall into a series of playful banter and laughs.

To be extremely honest, It was pretty weird to see them since it was a peculiar combination but now that you think about it.... They do make a great team.

Rona technically had no parents anymore and Minhyuk wasn't exactly that connected to his parents in a sort of familial way.

Reaching his arms out, Minhyuk playfully smiles and speaks with a boyish grin.

'Well..... Future Primadonna Ms. Bae, In hopes that you'd be able to reach the restaurant without a sprained ankle. If you'd allow me to do the honor of escorting you to there safely?'

With her soft and bright laughter, Rona smiles at her male friend and holds out her arms to link with his.

And with that, the two friends enter the hotel lobby to eat a friendly and fancy dinner for two.

Hearing her soft laughs was enough and fulfilling for Minhyuk. After hearing from Jenny about the sudden and unexpected breakup between Seokhoon and the female. He had done his best in a friend's way to cheer her up and make her laugh. As he smiled satisfied from the results of the day, Minhyuk cracks up more jokes as he leads the female into their main destination.

But what they didn't notice.... Was that all throughout the beginning, from the moment the red car was parked. There was a man who silently and secretly took pictures of the two from a safe distance.

Hence, we move the scene to a tall and bright building. With the giant signs hanged up the top. The building held a cold and almost boring feel.

Inside the top floor of JK Holdings, Lee KyuJin, Yoo DongPil, Joo Seokhoon and Ha Yoonchul sat in the meeting room.

Joo Dantae wasn't around, citing important dinner meetings with vip's for his presumably possible dirty business partnerships yet again. He had left the main office to his group of 'friends' and son.

They were currently on break, each going through their own phones as they sat in silence.

But the silence was to be broken as Lee Kyujin suddenly jolts up from his seat and smiles almost proudly.
