The Break-up

Warnings: Strong language/cursing, I think that is all. If you happen to spot something that should be a warning, please let me know and I'll add it immediately!

Work was Chan's life. Work and you. You had known Chan's career was his dream and his whole life when you both decided to take your casual dating to the next level. You both made it work with compromise, communication, and understanding and you had been together for four wonderful years because of that, the last two of which you had been living together, at least whenever Chan didn't have to stay in the dorm with the guys.

The last couple weeks Chan had noticed something had seemed a bit off with you though. He seemed to see you even less than normal and when he did see you, you seemed distant with him, quiet. Chan wouldn't have worried typically. You had a great relationship but everyone has their ups and downs.

None of yours had been especially bad, some bickering here and there, usually about his lack of resting, eating or forgetting important events when he got sucked into his work, every now and then maybe a difference of opinion that needed a little more talking out than usual. You weren't the type to yell at each other or give the silent treatment but to Chan it seemed like you were giving him the cold shoulder. He wondered if it had anything to do with the incident that happened a few weeks before at a showcase performance him and the boys had attended.

After they had finished their performance one of the female hosts of the show they were on, Leah, ran out on the stage, wrapped her arms around Chan's neck and planted a kiss right on his lips. Chan was upset but tried to contain his reaction since they were on camera and in front of thousands of people watching. He gently pushed her away with his brow furrowed, shaking his head.

"What the fuck are you doing? This is live! I have a girlfriend!" He covered his mic and whispered harshly at her. The smirk on her face disappeared instantly.

"I... Ryun... the producer he said to... I'm so sorry Chan." Tears started to well up in Leah's eyes and Chan felt bad for snapping at her. He led her off stage trying to calm her, assuring her he knew it wasn't her idea. Evidently one of the producers had put her up to it for 'good television'. Chan made sure to give him a piece of his mind once they were all off stage.

That had happened weeks ago. You'd never mentioned it so Chan never brought it up either. Then you started to get distant. Fuck he'd thought, he should have said something about it right after it happened, even if you hadn't seen. If you found out later it looked bad on him, like he was trying to hide something. Yea he had pushed Leah away and looked upset in front of the camera but he also walked her off the stage right after when she had started to cry. Then he didn't mention it at all. So, if you knew, it didn't look good, he knew that.

Chan decided to try and get you to join him for lunch. It wasn't often that he stopped working long enough to have lunch so he was hopeful that you'd say yes because of that. He opened his phone and shot you a text. 

Chris: Hey baby girl I'm taking lunch in about an hour...

Chris: I could use a hot date to go with me. Know anyone?

You: Shit. Can't

Chris: Oh? Why?

You: Busy

Chris: Well yea lol with what baby?

You: Nothing important

Chris: So you can't come eat with me because of it but it's nothing important?

Chris: Is something wrong?

You: What?! No!

You: Look Chris I can't right now. We should have a talk later tonight when you get home though
