"Y/n what's wrong with you?!!! stop being passive and just shoot the ball damn it!!!" your coach yelled at you while playing some team scrimmage in order for your coach to adjust his rotations.

You apologized to your coach, but at the same time, you just can't seem to focus because of one thing.

"Why did she do it?" you mentally asked yourself, still haven't moved on Rei suddenly kissing you on your cheek. frustrated that you couldn't come up with an answer you just decided to release your frustrations by playing hard on the team scrimmage.

While playing, you didn't notice that you're just hogging the ball every time you receive it, with you looking to score every time, fortunately, you successfully manage to score basket after basket which made your teammates impressed and scared at the same time since this is the first time they saw you being like that.

"So this is what Y/n can do when he looks to prioritize scoring instead of playmaking," Jun thought to himself while looking at the scrimmage stats which showed that you scored all of your team's last 17 points in the final minutes of the team scrimmage.

Your coach on the other hand had the same reaction as Jun, with him thinking that his yelling earlier triggered you to look for your own shots.

"Well I guess I have to yell at him more especially when we are playing official games"

---

You're currently in your locker room changing into your casual clothes when Jun suddenly approached you.

"Y/n I have never seen you act like that before, come on is there something bothering you?" Jun asked, clearly concerned about you.

You apologized for your actions earlier in the scrimmage which Jun just waved off saying that he is just surprised but he insisted that you tell him what's bothering you so he can help you.

You then decided to tell Jun what happened in IVE's dorm a couple of days ago with you carefully telling him what exactly transpired that day. After you were done telling the story, Jun remained silent, clearly thinking of what advice to give you.

"Y/n, I'm sorry but I think I can't help you on this one, this one is too personal for you for me to intervene," Jun said clearly respecting your privacy.

But as a true friend would do, Jun decided to give you a very simple advice.

"Y/n the only thing who can ease that confusion you are feeling right now is Rei herself, you should ask her about that," Jun said while patting your shoulder.

You agreed with his advice but you don't know if you're brave enough to even ask Rei fearing that you might be just assuming things.

"Well, I trust you to do what's best for you man so I hope you clarify things with her Immediately," Jun said while heading out to the locker room.

---
While you're way out of the team's training facility, you suddenly heard two familiar voices calling you in unison. You looked in the direction the voices are coming from and you saw Wonyoung and Yujin running toward you.

Upon approaching you, the two grabbed you by your arm making you confused and scared at the same time.

"Yujin, Wony what's happening?!!!" you panicky asked them, while they were literally dragging you towards their company car.

"Sorry Oppa, you're the only one who can help us with our current problem," Wonyoung apologetically said.

---

"How did it come to this?" you thought to yourself while sitting in one of Music bank's dressing rooms with multiple staff applying some light makeup to your face, to make you more good-looking as ever.

"You know, You have the looks that can qualify to be an Idol," one of the make-up artists said while fixing your hair. You thanked the make-up artist for her compliment.

"Well, I think this should do it," the make-up artist said, clearly proud of the work she has done to make you more good-looking as possible.

You thanked the staff for taking care of you but you also asked them what should you do to do a decent job being a temporary MC.

"It's Okay Y/n, you're only here as temporary MC, so no need to sweat it, just have a good time there, and Yujin and Wonyoung will guide you all the way." the makeup artist said, calming you a bit.

---
Upon exiting the dressing room, you saw Yujin and Wonyoung who look as pretty as ever, waiting for you, the two can't help but agree that you're really handsome, well the girls have always thought of you as a good-looking man but seeing you in a "celebrity" type of makeup and clothing impressed them on how good looking you can be.

---

"Just so we are clear here, you two will guide me along the way right?" you nervously asked Wonyoung and Yujin who just laughed at your question.

"Oppa you're not afraid of facing those 7'0 feet basketball players yet you're scared of just being an MC for a day?" Yujin teasingly said to you while Wonyoung laugh at Yujin's statement.

"Well, For the record I always prepare for those matchups before I face them, unlike this one where you two just pop out of nowhere and brought me here to fill for your MC partner," You said, annoyed at the two's constant teasing.

"I'm really sorry Oppa, my partner in doing these MC duties is currently on a world tour with his group," Wonyoung said trying to reason with you.

"I did try contacting my former MC partners but sadly both of them are currently busy today, leaving you as our only option since you are the only male we know that won't turn us down," Yujin said also apologizing.

"Well it's not like You guys gave me choice," You thought to yourself opting not to say it.

----

"God please kill me," You thought to yourself while internally cringing at saying your lines that came from the script. but you can't help to be impressed at how Wonyoung and Yujin are doing the MC job smoothly, While you on the other hand are doing you're very best to act normal.

----

Meanwhile, Jun is having a blast watching you do the MC job with him calling your other teammates to watch you. he may not know how you got in your current situation but it sure as hell entertaining to watch.

----
"~So Wonyoung, which do you prefer more? Sunghoon-ssi or Y/n-ssi ?~" Yujin asked Wonyoung on live T.V. Catching Wonyoung off guard.

"UNNIE THIS QUESTION DOESN'T EXIST ON THE SCRIPT WE ARE GIVEN!!!" Wonyoung mentally screamed while thinking of what improv performance she should do.

You on the other hand just waited for Wonyoung response, with you accepting that Wonyoung will probably choose that Sunghoon fella.

Wonyoung then cutely act like she was thinking while she approached you

"~Sunghoon-ssi I'm sorry but I prefer Y/n-ssi more because he didn't leave me~" Wonyoung said, Making you blush like a tomato.

"Wony don't be like that to your partner," You said trying to regain some of your composure

Yujin on the other hand just stood there and watched as you and Wonyoung bicker about Wonyoung's choice on her question earlier.

"Well, I guess my improvisation worked."

---

The Music bank show ended with you thanking God for surviving the predicament you were put into.

The staff and other crew thanked and praised you for doing your best despite knowing nothing about being an MC.

After that, Wonyoung was about to invite you for a dinner but you, on the other hand, were thinking of something else at the moment.

















"Yujin are you free later? because I have something to talk about with you"
