Before I even knew it, I was at Incheon Airport, departing from Japan and already making my way through the airport.

There were so much more people here, thankfully, they were behind a barrier, but despite the barrier, it looked insanely cramped in there.

There were people waving flags, banners, posters, people with repeatedly flashing cameras. Some people held up banners of a completely different group, and looking closer as we entered closer towards the inside of the airport, it seemed to be of a boy group.

As we made our way inside, screaming and chanting filled the echoey place. Not only that, but a group of boys were stood, waving and bowing to the cheering fans.

It was a group of seven tall men, people were squealing and taking pictures like crazy for them.

The two of our groups ended up collectively walking together, it was a mess. The barrier fell down, fans came crashing down on the two of our groups, and bodyguards were pushing people forcefully, left, right and center.

Again, a fan managed to creep through the bodyguards, sliding beside me and embracing me in a hug. She randomly gave me a hug, squealing and jumping. I didn't know what to do, just stuck in shock as she stared at me and told me how much she loves me.

She was suddenly pushed out of the way, but not by my useless bodyguards, but instead, a member of the boy group we were mixed with right now.

I looked up, a boy wearing a black cap, black mask with a storm, blue denim jacket and black skinny jeans. I looked at his sweet eyes, he gave me a small nod as I gave him one back.

"You okay?" He asked me, leaning a little closer so I could hear him over the loudness.

"Oh.. uh, yeah.. Thank you." I replied, a little shy. He took his hat off, placing it on my head. And as I looked at him, I finally found myself familiar with who he was.

My heart dropped, this would bring so many scandals.

Sim Jaeyun, from one of the most trending and popular groups worldwide currently, Enhypen. He was prettier in person, I've seen his group everywhere, absolutely everywhere. They were unavoidable.

"Jang Haerin, from BLOOM, right?" Jake asked, even though he was wearing a mask, I could see from his eyes that he was smiling.

"Yeah, Jake, from Enhypen. Wow, what a privilege." I chuckled, making a light joke as he gave a chuckle, looking to the ground, flustered for a second.

"Pfft, I should be the one saying that. You just finished your Asia tour, right?" He inquired, catching me a little surprised, what? Was he keeping tabs on our group or what?

"Yeah, exactly that, how'd you know?" I was unknowingly smiling at merely speaking to him, it felt surreal.

"Who doesn't, come on, you're from BLOOM." Jake gave a small laugh, pulling his mask down. And dear lord, if I was not an idol, and if it wasn't forbidden to date, I would've snatched this man up immediately.

Cameras flashed even more, I was surprised my eyes didn't completely give up at the amount of cameras clicking and flashing. Screaming was made louder, ferocious by the second.

"JANG HAERIN GET AWAY FROM JAKE! STAY AWAY YOU PLASTIC WHALE!" A prominent voice yelled, followed by a few cheers.

I swallowed hard, just pretending as if I didn't hear words like that. Sure, being an idol had it's perks, but additionally, it had it's cons. And one of the biggest cons were fan threats and the hate.

But like always, you eventually get used to it.

"JAKE!! JAKE! OVER HERE! WHY ARE YOU SPEAKING TO THAT GIRL?!" Another yelled, and now I was being referred to as 'that girl.'

Before either of us could talk, one of my managers approached me, grabbing me by the wrist and slowing the pace of us all down.

"Haerin, the rest of your members are at the back, come on, let's go before it gets heated here." My manager informed, not even giving me a second to say bye or anything.

I looked behind as he dragged me towards the back, Jake looked back at me too, double taking as I walked off, further and further from him.

I passed by a few of his members, looking at me too as we passed by.

I gave a sigh, wishing that people wouldn't be so weird when it came to idols and seeing them. The world would be a peaceful place if people didn't leak information and cause problems like this to occur.

I finally made it back with my group, heading towards the exit of the airport.

"Damn, Jake from Enhypen? How'd that happen?" Hyeri chuckled as the girls walked beside me in order to hear.

"I don't even know what you're talking about." I gave a faint laugh, shaking my head.

"You should one hundred percent sell that hat he gave you, you'd make bank." Taeri reminded me that I even had this hat on, I paused my thoughts, really realising what had just happened.

This will definitely bring thousands of scandals the next morning, not even that, in a good hour or so.
