Fated life, Unbreakable love

-Chapter 12: You are Going to Stay Here-

Jeonghan's POV~

No way! This is his house?! In front of me is a 3-storey apartment, consisting of a large parking space for his cars - yes, I said CARS - and a swimming pool at the back of the house.

"Jeonghan?" Seungcheol called, watching me as my jaw dropped from the view of his apartment.

"Yes, boss?" To my habit, I addressed him as 'boss' again...

"How many reminders do you need?" He snapped, as I panicked and explained, "I mean Cheol, I will try to like um, change my form of addressing you yeah..."

He took a deep breath and instructed me, " Wait for me in the living room. You can make yourself at home."

Upon curiosity, I asked, "Is there no one at home...?"

"Yes, my mother is out most of the time - for business trips, overseas or something else..." he explained, his voice seeming to come to a stop.

Observing his expression, he did not look comfortable sharing, so I did not question him any further.

I waited in the living room. Although he told me to make myself at home, that does not mean that I can shamelessly go around the house...

10 minutes later, Seungcheol came down with 2 pieces of luggage. I shot up from the couch and helped him with one of the luggage.

"This is your luggage, I have packed the things I thought you will need. If you need anything else, we will just get a new one." He explained.

"What about my house?" I asked. I didn't even get to move my stuff from my house... although it is rented, but IT IS STILL MY HOUSE AND THERE ARE MY STUFF INSIDE- Ahem, while this guy over here just helped me prepare things that he thought I might need...

"As for your house, I have already told my staff to move it over here and had paid the rent for last month to the landlord, so you do not have to worry about it." He continued.

I was stunned on the spot, looking at him with a totally speechless expression.

Seungcheol's POV~

"What are you waiting for?" I asked him, raising a brow.

"Uh, nothing." He answered me and hurriedly moved the luggage to the boot of the car, starting the engine.

The plan was a week-long trip to Mexico City to relax, but also to assist in the arrangements and the publication of Seventeen's new songs, which the members had picked this country to film for.

After a long day of paperwork and meeting with investors that were hungry for Seventeen's endorsement, I was as lifeless as a dead meat.

We had just checked into a hotel and my dear secretary just told me something I would not want to hear...

Jeonghan's POV~

As I knocked on the door of Seungcheol's hotel room, I was thinking of how to cut the conversation short so that I can return to my room and finish today's work.

The door unlocked and I entered the room.

He was clutching onto his head, looking lethargic, as I placed the minutes of meeting on his table. I started, "Cheol, I had brought the minutes of meeting. Are u, um...okay?"

"Mhm." He answered.

"Well then, I shall take my leave. Please have a good rest as we have another packed schedule tomorrow." I reported and was about to take my leave he called me.

"You are going to stay here tonight." He stated. Well, more like ordered, but I am not going to stay in the same room with my boss on the first night here!

I swallowed as I spoke up, "Cheol, I am sharing a room with the shooting crew. My items are not with me..." I panicked.

"I have extra clothes for you to change, unless you want a dress instead of a suit." He mocked at the feminine look of mine as I have long hair that can make almost any girl jealous of.

"I am going to sleep on the floor." I stated.

"You will be sleeping on my bed, and that's all. I don't bully my staff by making them sleep on the floor." He said rather calmly, taking this matter as if it was nothing.

Inside the washroom, I looked at myself in the mirror.

Why am I so nervous... It is just a night with my boss... Plus, he will never be interested in me so... Calm down Jeonghan...!

Despite calming myself like this, I can't help but pace around in the washroom, thinking of what I should do to avoid awkwardness.

Suppressing my nervousness, I walked out of the washroom and got scared by Seungcheol waiting at the door immediately.

Seungcheol POV~

Upon seeing the door opened, I saw a scared Jeonghan standing in front of me.

"Do I bite?" I asked.

"Um, no Cheol... It's just unexpected for u to be standing here..." he replied, seemingly trying his best to not shake so much.

"Are you feeling cold? I see that you're shivering..." I asked concerned as I placed the back of my hand on his forehead.

"I'm fine Cheol... don't worry." He assured me and grabbed my hand down from his head.

"Your face is kinda red though... Are you really fine...?" I asked again. Seriously, I can't understand why he is acting this way...

"It's really fine, I am fine yes, so please do not worry." He answered me in a rush and strode towards the bed, tucking himself to one side.

Is it possible for him, a man, to have feelings for me?
