"Do you think we should do some sort of quiet statement?" Sunghoon questioned as he gathered his things from his planeseat beside mine.

"Hm?" I frowned as I looked over at him and zipped up my hoodie, grabbing my bag and throwing it over my shoulder.

"You know the rumours that apparently we're both cheating on the other," he pointed out and I nodded quietly as I pulled my mask a bit up once again, "a quiet statement to prove they're not true."

"How would you even do that? I'm sure the airport is stuffed to the brim with people, like it have been any other time," I reminded him and he nodded quietly.

"I'll figure it out then," he assured and rushed over to pull his mask down enough for him to press a small kiss against my forehead, "I always figure it out."

"Okay," I murmured and walked in front of him as we wandered towards the exit of the airplane together.

Softly Sunghoon's hand rested on the lower of my back as I walked through the plane, out of the gate, down to the passport check and all the way out to baggage claim. We quietly grabbed our baggage for the staff that would take it out to the cars for us, meanwhile it was clear that all eight of us was constantly worrying about the state of the airplane - how it would look when we got out there.

"Just hold onto me, alright?" Sunghoon whispered softly as his hand on my back moved over to wrap around my waist, and pull me flush against him, "staff say it looks quite bad out there."

"I don't wanna go," I whispered and turned to look up at him.

"I got you," he assured softly and his eyes bunched up above his mask, hinting at the hidden smile under his mask, "hold on," he murmured and quickly pulled away from me.

He quickly fished his headphones out of his bag and turned them on, placing them over my head and adjusting them to fit my head properly.

"I'll put on some nice music for you and we'll go together," he excused as a staff member yelled out for us to follow along, "we'll come in just a moment!" Sunghoon yelled back before shaking his head in disbelief, "aish... those staff members."

I didn't get to hear more of Sunghoon's complaints before the soft and delicate music had started playing in the headphones over my ears. With the music playing Sunghoon softly grabbed onto my hand and tugged me after him as staff quickly surrounded us before we continued out into the airport, where a big crowd already was waiting for us.

I immediately lifted my other hand to grab onto Sunghoon's arm and pulling myself closer to him as we were pushed from each direction despite trying to move forward.

In a quick and swift motion Sunghoon had shoved me in front of him, as he wrapped one secure arm around my waist and the other held onto my shoulder to help guide me through the airport.

One of my hands clutched tightly onto his arm around my waist and the other held the headphones tightly secured on my head as I kept looking down at my feet.

Every once in a while Sunghoon's hand on my shoulder gave it a small assuring squeeze, it was mostly whenever we got a harsh enough push for me to lose my footing. Which apparently was something that happened time and time again.

I didn't keep exact track of time, but I knew at least four songs had been playing in the headphones before we even had gotten out of the airport, summing up to about fifteen minutes of us fighting our way through the airport. Even though it felt like hours and seconds all at once.

Once we got outside the crowd was less dense and Sunghoon had a chance to lean down and move one of the earpads away from my ear.

"You're alright, right?" he questioned and I immediately nodded in return, "I love you," he murmured softly and kissed the top of my head before letting the earpad get back down over my ear once again.

When we reached our car I got a harsh push from behind and almost banged my head against the cardoor, had Sunghoon not grabbed onto the top of the car to stop our fall, while he had tugged my waist closer to his to get me away from the car.

My grip on his arm tightened as I could feel constant pushes cause for Sunghoon to stumble and fall against me time and time again, making it completely impossible for us to open the cardoor. All I could do was close my eyes tightly and lower my head, wishing for everything to be over that instant.

For a second, when the crowd loosened, a staff member had managed to open the car door and get us both pushed inside and smacking the door right after. I let out a deep breath of relief as Sunghoon ushered me over in a seat and secured my seatbelt for me, while I kept staring at him in bewilderment.

"It's alright," he assured and patted my head softly before sitting down in the seat behind me, turning the music in his headphones down slightly.

He let me keep the headphones on while the car began driving us back towards our dorm. He knew that I got uneasy with too much silence or too much noise, so he somehow always managed to balance it out perfectly.

"Can I show you something?" Sunghoon whispered as he moved the earpad over behind my ear and patted my shoulder.

"What?" I murmured and turned my head slightly as he extended his phone forward with a small smile on his face.

"Brand new article," he murmured, "Enhypen Couple Shows Concern in Airport... Told you I knew how to handle it."

"There'll still be rumours," I reminded him and he nodded with a small shrug.

"But fans will know it's just rumours now," he reminded with a small smile before moving the earpad over my ear once more, letting me sit and calm down completely before we would get back to the dorm.

Enhypen Couple Shows Concern in Airport

August 23, 2022

When Enhypen set foot on Korean ground once again just an hour earlier the airport was already stuffed to the brim. All eight members were mobbed by excited fans as they tried to move through airport.
However, only two members seemed to capture the media's eye as they fought through the mobs at the airport. It is concerning the couple, Park Sunghoon and Edin Yang. The two, who have been whirled in cheating rumours since early August. 

On their way through the airport the two were reported to hold tightly onto one another as they walked through the airport, whispering to one another and on few occasions sharing kisses. People have since then claimed that it is an act planned by the company to tone down the cheating scandal, meanwhile fans of the group see it as the couple silently replying to the rumours by showing their affection towards one another.
