~ Raindrops On Her Face ~

~ Protecting His Heart(Y/N): Han's POV ~

Han was walking down the hallway when he saw Lino quickly duck out of a room and down the hallway. He frowned after he saw a girl exiting the room a few seconds later.

*Isn't that the backup dancer Lino had?*

She was straightening her clothes and smoothing her hair down. Han noticed that her lips were red and gloss smeared. He smirked as he disappeared into the office. Whipping out his phone, he shot a quick text to Lino.

Han: So who's the hottie you were feeling up in the office??

He grinned when he saw the response.

Lino: Damn it...

Han laughed as he walked out of the office and nearly ran into Lino. He looked a bit flustered.

"So you saw us?"

Han nodded as he started walking down the hallway.

"You should tell her to fix herself before leaving the room, not after."

Lino let out a huff.

"She's been driving me crazy. If she had just let me take her out on a date sooner, I wouldn't have been wound up so tightly."

Han glanced at Lino in confusion.

"What do you mean?" He murmured as he sat down in the recording studio.

Lino ran his hands through his hair before replying.

"I've been asking her out for a date for eight months now. She finally agreed to go out last Friday. And then when I was dropping her off, she wouldn't let me kiss her. I thought that she was playing with me. But then today she pulls me into the office and starts making out with me...like pins me to the wall and kissing me, tongue and all."

Han was stunned speechless for a split second before he started laughing. Lino glanced at him irritably.

"I'm glad that you find it so funny, because I didn't. I was so surprised and confused..."

Han finally calmed down enough to murmur, "How does it feel to be on the opposite side?"

Lino glared at him before a small smirk started to appear.

"I guess I was long overdue for a role reversal, hmm?"

Han smiled as he leaned back and watched his friend ponder on his new situation.

"Maybe this girl is the one that you didn't know that you wanted or needed..."

Lino met his eyes seriously before he softly whispered,

"I think that you may be right..."

As soon as Lino left the studio, Han ran out to find Y/N. He couldn't wait to tell her what had happened. He grinned as he saw her round the corner. Pulling her into the empty room, he watched her expression go from curiosity to shock to excitement as he told her the news. As he followed her out afterward, he brushed a quick kiss across her lips before heading back to the studio to finish recording.

A few weeks later, Chan and Wren had announced that the framework was completed and that they were ready for the next step which was design. Han and Y/N had spent a week discussing and finalizing the details. By the time the final design was submitted, he was excited and couldn't wait until the world tour was over to see the house that he and Y/N envisioned together.

The next six months were a hectic whirlwind with Stray Kids and their families. On their second night in Sydney, Han collapsed on the bed with Y/N. They had just gotten back from the venue after a concert.

"I'm so tired that I can barely move. How do you guys do it?"

Y/N had murmured quietly as she laid there. Han glanced at her. She still looked beautiful. He smiled as he rolled over and pulled her into his arms.
