Angel With a Shotgun- Pentagon Yang Hongseok

Maya
After letting Yanan know that he might not be the best OBGYN, I decided to find a new doctor to care for me. I have yet to let Geonhak know that my fracture in one of my vertebrae and bruising was from Hongseok, unintentionally. Hongseok had helped me find my new doctor, the best in the city (aside from Yanan). Hongseok found out about the unfortunate loss of one of our babies. He was devastated, as was everyone in the group, but we had other things to focus on. Things have calmed down a lot in the last couple of months and he has taken on a more caring role.

Tonight, there was a mini mission. A dinner with NCT. OneUs, PTG group, a smaller group called Enhypen, and EXO would be in attendance. This meant the pregnancy and my relationship with Geonhak would be revealed, as my belly was too large to hide in dresses anymore and he had asked me to be his date. Also in attendance, was apparently PTG Group's former member and his girlfriend, who were both in a new group.
"Hey, Maya," Hyunggu came through the door of mine and Hongseok's shared room, carrying a black dress bag.
"Hey," I smile, raising an eyebrow. "What is in the dress bag?"
"Well, I remembered you talking about how you could no longer fit in the dresses you had before, so the guys and I pitched in to get you a couple maternity dresses," he hands me the dress bag.
"Aww, you guys didn't have to do that," I hug him.
"We felt like we needed to, you haven't left the house in a couple of weeks," he chuckles, pointing to my belly.
"Well," I sigh. "That's true, but I'm scared of hurting this baby."
"Speaking of which, are you finding out the gender of the baby? It's about that time of knowing," Hyunggu questioned me.
"I wasn't planning to, since I hadn't thought about it much. Now, since you mentioned it, it would be nice to know, since we haven't gotten anything to prepare for them," I look down at my belly, placing a hand on it, feeling a bit of movement from the little one.
"Time to get stuff done then," he smiles, turning to leave the room, before turning around just as quickly. "Forgot to give this to you: choose one. It's to prevent you from being messed with." A small bag of rings was placed in my hands.
"Got it, what time are we leaving?" I look at Hyunggu.
"In about an hour," his smile formed a small dimple in the corner of his mouth, before he walked out of the room. Alrighty then.

An hour and a half had passed, as we were making our way to the hall of NCT's base, where the party would be held. A ring on my finger had been given to me by Hyunggu. A blue sapphire stone was the center of the ring, surrounded by two much smaller diamonds on the side. It complimented the black off the shoulder dress I had on quite nicely.

"Wow," an audible gasp was heard. Geonhak walked up towards me. "I made a good decision, asking you to be mine." His hand made their way to my hips, smiling.
"I'm glad you did," my hands make their way around his neck, pressing a gentle kiss to his lips. A gentleman walks out of the hall, "Welcome to NCT Base Hall. I am Jeongin, one of their butlers. Don't confuse me for the mafia group Stray Kids member. Follow me right this way." He leads us down an alley in the hall, until we reached a grande ballroom. "Enjoy yourselves tonight."
A chandelier hung high in the room, making the lighting more than acceptable. The walls were covered with artwork that looked to be street art.
"I present: PTG Group and OneUs," a voice announces, before the groups lined up. I was in between both groups, giving me a look at them. Youngjo, as I liked calling him, looked fierce with a lip piercing adjourning his lip alongside his tux. Leedo stood next to me, his hand on the small of my back, and his face as striking as the day I met him. My eyes traced the room, looking for any other female. My eyes landed on a girl about my age, a skull tattoo across her upper right arm. I made the first move from the line, managing to get out of Geonhak's touch.

My flats allow me to move quickly across the room, even though I am slightly waddling.
"It's nice to see another girl at one of these," I smile. "I'm Maya."
She scoffs, smiling, "And you're really peppy."
"What's wrong with being happy about not being the only girl at an event like this?"
"Save it, I'm Deiji. I'm part of EXO. Let me guess: you're part of PTG group?" She smirks, eyeing me up and down. "And you're pregnant. Adorable."
"Yeah, I am pregnant and a caporegime of PTG Group. I've trained in artillery and self-defense for almost 15 years," I smile, crossing my arms against my chest.
"Sweet," she smirks. "You're cool."
"Nice tattoo by the way."
