"respectfully, i'm gonna fucking kill you."

"Woah Woah live a little" Seungcheol told the hesitant girl as they walked up to the entrance of the fair. Aerin was bewildered at how quickly his personality had switched from serious business man to a guy who didn't have a care in the world and went by the flow. If she was being honest, it kind of scared her.

But what also scared her was the situation at hand. They were attending a completely public fair together with nothing but sunglasses, not even masks or a hat. Any person with eyes could tell exactly who they were and with one click of a camera, their careers were on the line. And even if they didn't know who they were, they were wearing the usual under-cover celebrity attire, anyone could snap a pic and upload it because they looked like celebrities. Aerin wasn't a dumbass, she knew how these things went. Yet it surprised her how her senior who supposedly knew his way around the industry 100x more than she did, didn't seem to really give a shit. Was this what not being rookies did to a group?

"Live a little? Live a little!? Seungcheol you are insane," the girl whispered-shouted into his ear before smacking him lightly on the back, all while he held a smug look on his face, annoying Aerin even more than he already was.

They walked until seventeen's leader came to a halt and all of a sudden  he grabbed her arm, running to some corner around a building. She looked at him with a look of not only confusion but anger on her face once they stopped. Just how many more surprises would he throw at her?

"Look, just act like you belong here, nothing will happen. I've been wanting to go to this fair for years, i'm not giving up this chance." Aerin rolled her eyes, letting out a scoff.

"Okay sure whatever, but how come I have to be a part of your desire? I came here to sort out the evidence and figure out what the fuck Hyunjae, and now Jeonghan, are up to!" Seungcheol rested his hands on her shoulder, calming her down. Aerin wasn't sure why but she felt her cheeks heating up, they were extremely too close and the way he looked at her made the girl want to actually let her guard down. His eyes were soft and his face gorgeously illuminated by the vibrant lights from the buildings around. 

"Calm down. Look, if you wrap your head around this too much, you'll start letting your life be consumed by it. You need a break once in a while to just let loose and have fun." His words were soothing yet persuasive and Aerin was a second close to buying it.

"Please?" That's when the girl broke. Why the fuck was he pleading!? 
To escape her embarrassment, she took his hand subconsciously and led him into the fair rather quickly. Luckily, the night was pitch black and the neon lights were all that illuminated the  venue. Maybe Seungcheol was right, this wouldn't be horrible.

The two walked for another 2 minutes until the wind passing by Aerin had suddenly made her realize she was in fact still holding Seungcheol's hand. She quickly pulled it away as if nothing happened and turned her red face away, pretending to look at some random vendor's stand.

She was even more shaken when she felt Seungcheol grab her hand again, securing it in his own pocket, looking forward nonchalantly. He seemed to have seen her bewildered expression from his peripheral view and leaned down to her ear.

"Just go with the flow!~" As much as Aerin wanted to punch him for the phrase, she surprisingly settled for a glare ad continued walking, hand in hand, fingers in fingers. 

Even Though Aerin looked okay with the situation on the outside, she was crumbling on the inside. Honestly, does Seungcheol use his flirting on purpose or is it completely subconscious, because Aerin was starting to lean towards subconscious. He needed to be locked up.
