"So since the magazine photoshoot got very unexpectedly positive feedback, we decided to push it a little further" NCT Dream's manager, Jin Yeowon said to the two idols sitting next to each other as he and Wonsan sat across them.

"And how far exactly did you push it?" Sujin asked and the two managers gave each other knowing looks before Yeowon smirked "we decided that the two of you will release a track together, debuting a new duo under SM with full promotions" he stated.

Sujin's eyes grew wider and Jaemin's expression changed. The two couldn't stand being together in the same room as they both were crazy in love with each other, let alone release a song together.

"Wait why?" Jaemin asked with obvious protest in his voice "the magazine collab profited the company a great ton of money as well as the groups reputation and popularity" Yeowon started.

"Your old songs are now charting again and bringing in profit for the groups as well. This success is because people loved your chemistry and aura together so they want to see more" Wonsan continued.

Sujin gave Wonsan a "I'm going to kill you" look which he didn't get scared by. "Since promotions with your groups are over, we will start preparations immediately" Wonsan said with a smile and the two idols nodded knowing there was no way out of it anyways.

"Perfect, we will meet the producers here tomorrow at 2 p.m. so make sure you are here on time" Yeowon stated before he and Wonsan got up and left the room.

"I-I have to go" Sujin said hurriedly and left Jaemin alone in the meeting room.

The next day, Sujin and Jaemin sat in the same seats as yesterday and waited patiently until all producers and their managers were finally there.

"What do you think?" One producer asked "It's nice but, isn't it very...couple...ly?" Sujin stated, trying to figure out the right wording.

"Yes, that's exactly what we are going for" the producer said and smiled at how the two became a little stiff afterwards.

"You don't have to worry, it's just a song" she looked at the idols with the smile that hid a knowing look. Yeowon and Wonsan already told her that the two are in love and since everyone around them was tired of them doing nothing, they decided to make a move for them.

"Yeah, right" Jaemin said awkwardly as he scratched his neck "Anyways, I don't think there is anything that needs to be changed so we will roll with this yeah?" The producer said before starting to discuss everything else with everyone.

After the meeting was over, Sujin went back home and started complaining to Aeri about the whole situation while Aeri just laughed at her problem.

"You don't understand, I can't do this but I have no choice!" Sujin complained as she walked in circles in front of Aeri who was just eating popcorn while watching her.

"Maybe you can use this as an opportunity to make a move" she suggested but was quickly shut down by Sujin "no way, I'm mot making the first move"

"But you know he likes you too, it would be awesome!" Aeri tried to encourage her but Sujin just shook her head "I'm not risking it"

Meanwhile...

"You don't understand the severity of my problem hyung! I love her so much I can't be in the same room with her because I blush and stutter and- ugh! I sound like a highschool girl in love" Jaemin he trew himself onto the bed where Mark was just eating his watermelon.

"Try to make a move during preparations, you know she likes you too so just do it" Mark shrugged since that was the only idea he had and Jaemin gave him a "are you serious" look.

"Hell no! I am not risking it at all"

♤

After two months of hardwork and blushing, Sujin and Jaemin were finally set to debut as J&J, the first duo, since debut atleast, under SM.

"Calm down, you are acting like this is your first debut" Jimin said as she patted Sujin's shoulder. "You know why I'm nervous Jimin" Sujin whispered as she glared at Jimin.

"It will be fine, use you feelings to improve the performance Jinnie" Minjeong suggested "what do you mean?" Yizhou asked.

"like the song is about a couple who of course love each other like crazy, you two aren't couples but you love each other so use that to your own good" Minjeong explained and the others agreed with her.

"I guess I will" Sujin sighed "let's go Sujin" Wonsan said and the girls cheered her up one last time before she left the room and stood next to the other idols, still waiting for Jaemin.

"Sujin!" She heard a familiar voice call her from behind "Yerim unnie!" Sujin smiled and hugged the girl she didn't see ever since she was in the hospital.

"Aren't you here to promote Ping Pong? Where is Jaemin?" Yerim asked after she broke the hug "I don't know, maybe he's still getting ready" she said before hugging the rest of the Red Velvet members.

"You guys look amazing together, the song is also so good!" Seungwan commented with a smile "thank you! Queendom is really good too, I'm sure it will do great" Sujin complimented and all six girls fell into a conversation.

"I also- Ow!" Sujin felt herself bump into someone's chest beside her before she fell onto the floor "oh my god! I am so sorry! Are you okay? I told you guys to stop!" She heard a male's voice say.

"Oh shit- yeah I guess" Sujin said and took the guy's hand to stand up "Apologize" he growled at the other two guys behind him.

Aren't they from Stray Kids? Bangchan, Felix and Han if I got it right.

"Are you alright? I'm so sorry" Felix apologized with a bow "I'm very sorry, please don't mind us" Han also apologized.

"Yeah I'm fine, it's okay" she smiled at them softly "hey, you are bleeding, here" she heard some other guy's voice behind her.

TXT's Yeonjun right?

Sujin looked at her elbow and saw that she was indeed bleeding. She took the tissue and bandage from Yeonjun's hand before bowing with a thank you and a smile.

"We are very sorry!" Bangchan apologized again once he noticed she was bleeding because of Felix and Han's childishness "it's fine really, it doesn't hurt and it will stop bleeding in a second" she said.

"Sujin? Are you okay?" Jaemin asked once he saw the blood on her elbow and rushed to her "who hurt you? Was it that bitch again?" He bombarded her with more questions as his anger increased, thinking it was Hyerin again.

"No! No, calm down, I just fell, I'm fine Jaemin" she giggled at his worry "fell? You should be more careful!" He scolded her and she giggled and pushed him off her slightly.

"Actually, I kinda was the one to trip her" Felix scratched his neck "Felix? Did you not learn your lesson since last time?" Jaemin laughed and calmed down once he saw that it wasn't someone who wanted to kill Sujin.

"Hey! I didn't see her okay?!" Felix pouted and the five men laughed together and continued talking. Sujin didn't notice this yet, but she had two pairs of eyes glued to her strongly.

"Girl! He definitely wants you, did you see how he rushed to you?!" Seungwan whispered in english and giggled like a highschool girl while Sujin just sighed "can everyone just shut up about this already?"

"Sorry not sorry" Seungwan stuck her tongue out to tease Sujin "Sujin, Jaemin! It's your turn now, hurry up!" The two said goodbye to their friends before they left to go on stage. "Are you ready?" Jaemin asked the girl and she nodded with a smile.
