I'm Sleeping peacefully when I feel my body being flown into the air, my head nearly hits the top of the car. Wide eyed I stare at Sunghoon. "What was that? What happened?" I ask quickly, my heart racing. I look over to him and he is barely breathing that's how hard he is laughing. Jay, in the back of the car, is also laughing.

"I forgot about- that one pothole," Sunghoon struggles to say between laughs. I slap his arm.

"Just how fast were you driving? I was nearly a whole inch out of my seat." I argued a smile on my face. It's hard to keep a frown when everyone around you is laughing. I've always been bad at keeping a stair face.

"Relax," Sunghoon says, a bright smile adorning his face as he enters the parking lot. He put his hand on the top of my seat. He turns his head to look behind him, backing the car into a parking spot underneath a tree.

"I've told our manager about it a few times, I think he said that someone will come out to fix it in a couple of days," Jay says. bringing our argument to an end.

I open the car door and step out. I stretch my arms, feeling tight from sleeping in the same position. I let out a gentle yawn, letting out my sleepiness. I remember to pull out a black mask from my bag. My hands touch the cold frame of my black sunglasses. I put them on to further complete my manager look and conceal my identity.

"Pfft," Sunghoon lets out. "You certainly look like a manager." I roll my eyes which, are hidden behind dark frames.

"Let's head inside before a crown forms," Jay suggests, leading Sunghoon and me into the building. I take a moment to appreciate the towering black, glassy building before, stepping inside. Behind Jay and Sunghoon I walk with my head up and my eyes focused in front of me. I ignore any stares from people I don't recognize.

We turn the corner to the elevators, where a man about 30, steps out of the elevator on our left. He walks quickly towards us. I look up to see Sunghoon's face, he appears to know him so, I relax. "Good to see you guys. We have to do hair, makeup, and clothes before," he looks down at his watch, "5 pm and it's 2 pm," his voice quiet and airy.

Jay and Sunghoon both nod focused and ready to work. "Yes, sir."

"Before I forget to introduce myself, I am Baek-Hyeon, the main manager of Enhypen," he says with a small bow facing me.

"Nice to meet you, I am Kang (Y/N)," I say while deep bowing to show my respect.

"Good manners, I was expecting a silly high school girl," Mr. Baek-Hyeon says, nearly mumbling while he nods.

Sunghoon almost busts out laughing, I can see his back shaking. "You flatter me Mr. Baek-Hyeon, I still have a ways to go to learn about being a manager," I manage to say, I little embarrassed. Now it was Mr. Baek-Hyeon's turn to laugh. He chuckles to himself as he leads us to the nearest elevator. He presses a numbered button and we reach our desired floor.

"This is the floor for getting ready. It has all the rooms for the makeup artists and the hair stylists along with the clothing stylists," Sunghoon says, his arm extending out to the hallway with a door on each side of the wall. At the end of the hallway, there are huge windows that look out to Seoul, along with a pair of dark grey couches and leafy plants on both ends.

"Oh by the way Mr. Baek-Hyeon, Heesueng, and Jake should be here soon," Jay says, informing Mr. Baek-Hyeon.

"Yes, I just recently got a text from Jake," Mr. Baek-Hyeon says, checking his phone. "The rest of the boys are in the lounge waiting for our staff to get ready." Mr. Baek-Hyeon checks his phone and starts typing quickly. "Excuse me, I'll be leaving now. I have an important meeting." 

"I can't believe (Y/N) is finally getting to see how awesome I am," Sunghoon says, patting my back annoyingly.  I roll my eyes at his childish behavior. 

"You've never been curious before?" Jay asks. 

"No, I thought Sunghoon was lying to me the first three months."

"Really?" Jay says laughing loudly at Sunghoon. 

"Yeah, it's true," Sunghoon mocks hurt. "I had to show her videos of our concerts."

Jay is hysterical now, gasping for breath. "Sunghoon doesn't get teased enough, thank you for picking up the slack.'' The sharp-eyed boy manages to get out between breaths.

"I've been teasing him since we were little," I explain. "If anything he deserved a break," I smirk.

As our conversation is about to end, I see Niki and a girl about 19, if I had to guess. Her head was below his shoulder, her hair was a dark brown with bleached ends. She was speaking but, I could not hear what was being said. Niki leaned down to listen. I looked away not wanting to watch. Is she a manager like me?

Niki and the pretty girl walk up to us. Niki walks up to Sunghoon and Jay and the pretty girl walks up to me. "Hi, I'm Lee Iseul," she introduces herself with a small bow. 

"I'm (Y/N), It's nice to meet you," I say as nicely as I can, ignoring my feelings of disappointment. What was I disappointed about anyway? It's not like I care about him, he drives me crazy.

"Here let me show you the rooms," Iseul says warmly while she grabs my hand and drags me along. I turn my head towards Sunghoon before I'm completely out of sight. 

"You'll like her," he mouths, a firm smile on his face. I bring my attention back to Iseul, who is smiling brightly and explaining all the rooms and which staff to avoid getting mad. I giggle with her as we walk together.
