"Did you get the schedule?" Jorah asked Nine as he walked to the sofa where Nine sat with his legs curled under him. After giving Nine a quick kiss on the forehead, Jorah sat beside him .

"I did." Nine confirmed "Sean sent it to me."

"He's really stepped up hasn't he?" Jorah observed.

"Yeah he has." Nine agreed, acknowledging how much Sen had picked up the slack to manage his career recently.

"Maybe you should give him a real shot." Jorah suggested.

"A real shot?You mean as my manager?" When Jorah nodded to confirm, Nine's brows twisted in thought. "Do you really think he could do it?"

"Only one way to find out for sure. " Jorah replied "Besides, you trust him and he hasn't screwed up yet."

"I guess you're right." Nine conceded. "I'll talk to him and see how he feels about it."

"Ok." Jorah nodded. "The longer you remain without a manager, the longer it will take for you to get back on track."

Nine shrugged "I don't mind." He looked at Jorah. "This is the most fun I've had being on hiatus."

"Are you having enough fun to never want to go back?" Jorah teased

Nine laughed, "I didn't say all of that rich boyfriend." He teased back. "But I will just focus on the series for now."

"It was worth a shot." Jorah grinned as he pulled out his phone.

"So we have roughly a month and a half left. Everything was already done. They were just waiting on us...well you." Nine listened. "The first episode and the music video will premiere on the same night. Right after the premier there will be a live with the cast and the fans, featuring a Q and A." He continued scrolling through the document. "It looks pretty packed.Talk shows, variety shows, product launches, fanmeets. This is intense."

Nine chuckled "And that's just for the local leg. If it's popular in other countries we're going to have to do it all again there." Jorah blinked. "So yeah. It can definitely get a little crazy." He looked at Jorah, "And I should probably warn you."

"Warn me? About what?" He asked, quite curious.

"This is where it's really going to start getting interesting. Once the series airs, things are going to get hectic. Some of those shows are really crazy. "

"Crazy how?" Jorah raised a brow.

"The things they ask you to do."

"Like what?"

"It might be better if I showed you." Nine began to search on his phone. Jorah waited until Nine completed his search "Look."

Looking at the screen Jorah saw 6 people. 4 actors, each pair forming a couple or the "shipped " and two hosts. In this particular game, the objective was to race to see which couple could transport a ball from one of their partner's leg to the other.

It would have been a simple enough game if it didn't require the ball to be in the person's clothes. The ball could only enter from the ankle. From the ankle, it had to be rolled up the calves, up to the thigh.

Jorah watched as both couples deposited the ball in their partner's clothes.Their hands moved swiftly as they attempted to get the ball to the other side.

Both couples exercised caution when the ball crossed their partner's pelvis. There was definitely a problem getting that ball safely across the groin area without incident.

Jorah frowned watching the awkwardness of these men standing with bulges in their pants while another man was on his knee before him.

The hosts and the audience however seemed to be having a whale of a time, nevermind how uncomfortable the players looked from time to time.
