"can you be serious for one moment?"
...
Naerin had never expected her first time meeting Jisung's members to be interrupted by their managers. Jisung had told Naerin that he was certain the managers would be working late at the company that night and wouldn't bother them. It seemed like those plans had changed though.
Jisung 's eyes went wide and he jumped to his feet. Naerin's eyes widened as well and seeing Jisung jump to his feet, she followed suit. The two had spoken beforehand that Jisung didn't want to tell the company or managers about their soulmate bond. If the managers found out, it meant that Jisung would have to talk to the company about their relationship and it could end up with their relationship being publicized.
"Noona, quickly," Jisung grabbed her hand and rushed toward his bedroom door. Pulling her inside, he closed the door quickly before the managers stepped into the apartment space.
"Ji–" Naerin started to say but Jisung quickly turned and shook his head.
"I'm so sorry," Jisung apologized, "We didn't think they would be coming over today," Jisung explained as he gently placed his ear to the door.
"Oh, Haechan and Chenle are here," Jisung heard their manager, Kim Dongminsay. "Hwangho and I just got home so we stopped and brought you guys some food, but we can just put it in the fridge,"
"Thank you," the members reapplied.
"Where's Jisung?" Dongmin asked, "Is he in his room?"
Hearing footsteps approaching, Jisung panicked and grabbed Naerin. Rushing her toward the back end of his room, he quickly pushed her behind his bed in hopes that it would conceal her from Dongmin.
Jumping back up, Jisung turned to the door just as it opened.
"Hyung," Jisung said, addressing Dongmin.
"Ah, Jisung, you should come out and eat, Haechan and Chenle are here," Dongmin said and Jisung nodded, following after him. He glanced back at where he had Naerin hide but didn't say anything as he closed the door.
"Can we join?" Hwangho asked as he took a seat where Naerin was sitting before.
Jisung noticed that one of the members had managed to clean up Naerin's plate before the managers came in. Sitting back in his original spot, Dongmin pulled up a chair and got his own helping of food.
The members all tried to play it off normally, as they continued their dinner with the managers. They kept glancing at Jisung, who tried not to fidget in his seat. In the back of his mind, he kept trying to think of a way to get the managers to leave. It wasn't an ideal situation to have Naerin hidden in his room while the managers were here.
The managers stayed much longer than Jisung had expected. They had quite literally sat down and eaten food with Jisung and the NCT Dream members. They continued to ask the boys about their days and their schedules coming up.
Jisung pulled out his phone and texted Naerin's number.

"Jisung, are you not hungry?" Dongmin asked, noticing the boy's eyes glued to his phone.
Jisung quickly put his phone down and took a bite of food. He finished his plate quickly and looked up at the manager as if showing him that he had eaten all his food. Dongmin's eyes widened and he chuckled gently.
"Alright," Dongmin smiled. He glanced down at his phone and started to stand up. Jisung's eyes followed his as he and Hwangho got up, "We should get going. It's almost eleven o'clock,"
Jisung tried not to seem in a rush as he said goodbye to the managers. When Jisung heard the door close, he immediately rushed to his room. When he opened the door though, Naerin wasn't anywhere to be seen.
"Noona?" Jisung called into the room.
"Are they gone?" he heard her voice call back.
Jisung followed her voice and pulled his chair out from where it was at the desk. Kneeling down, he found Naerin hiding under his desk. She looked up at him with big eyes before a shy smile made its way onto her face.
"I heard the door open, I thought it was your manager," she exclaimed as she started to crawl out from under the desk.
"They're gone," Jisung said, "I'm really sorry for how long they stayed. I didn't think–"
"You're so cute," Naerin cut him off sensing his nervousness.
"W-what?" Jisung studdered at the sudden compliment, "Don't say things like that,"
Naerin laughed and followed Jisung out of his bedroom. She stopped laughing when she saw the members cleaning the table and washing the dishes. Naerin immediately went over and started to pick up some of the wet dishes and dry when with a towel hanging on the cabinet door.
"You don't have to–" Jeno said from where he was washing the dishes.
"It's alright, thank you for treating me to dinner," Naerin smiled, "Even if I was hiding in Jisung's room most of the time,"
Once the dishes were all clean, Naerin realized that it was time for her to go home. It was nearly midnight and she knew that her brother would start to worry if she got home any later. After Naerin said goodbye to the NCT Dream members, Jisung followed her to drop her off at her car.
When they got down to the lobby, Naerin stopped and turned to Jisung with a soft expression on her face.
"What?" Jisung asked.
"I'm just happy," Naerin replied, the blissful expression not leaving her face. Her eyes swirled with gold and Jisung couldn't help but stare into them.
"I'm glad you came over," Jisung smiled, "I'm really glad that you were able to meet my members,"
"Me too," Naerin smiled and Jisung swore he saw the hint of a blush on her cheeks.
"Are you blushing?" Jisung asked, taking this moment to tease her since it didn't come often.
"No," Naerin shrugged, "Don't worry about it," she quickly turned away and waved to Jisung over her shoulder, "I'm going to go now, good night baby," she said.
"I know you meant baby as in an actual baby," Jisung called after her, hearing her laughter as the door closed behind her. Jisung smiled once she was gone and let out a gentle sigh. He was glad about how the night went despite the managers stopping by.
Having Naerin meet the members really put Jisung at ease.
Suddenly he felt like having a soulmate wasn't as bad as he thought it could be.
On his way back up to his apartment, Jisung saw Dongmin waiting outside of the Dreamies' apartment. The managers live just down the hall so it wasn't uncommon for them to see each other.
"Dongmin hyung," Jisung addressed as he got closer.
"Jisung, I have a question," Dongmin said, apparently wanting to get straight to the point, "Who was that girl that left the dorm earlier?"
